Today? It's had that drawdown

for about 1-2 weeks now.

Oh that's sweet. Closing those hanging trades must have pissed the EA off if it then went and closed all trades. I bet if it was running in an account with other EA's and trades it would have trashed those also

Yeah, I don't understand that. I restarted MT to be sure it wasn't hanging and it seems to be okay ... now how do we kick start this thing again?

I was the idiot who voted no to closing the trades.

I had a EA like this on a live account a few years back called FX-Ea and it did the same thing to me for a major loss, once you close one linked order the others close in a cascade.

You have to remove the ea and chart, open a new chart and re-attach the EA.

I would save a .set file of the current setting and reload that when reapplying the EA.

I'm demoing EvolutionV now @IBFX 400:1 3k start, and it seams to be far more stable.

If V is better than X, shouldn't it be DevolutionX ?

Ah, the "idiot", AKA the only person who knew what he was talking about.

I've followed your directions, let's see what happens now.
