footon can you elaborate a bit more, say I wanted to trade EURUSD with Strategy A and the ID is at default is 0. How would I trade GBPUSD with Strategy B ? I could set the Expert EA for GBPUSD ID to say 2 but how will I control EA with ID#2 with Strategy B in FST?

thank you footon

Somewhere on the site you will find a utility donated by one of the members that will do just what you require.

I am sorry that I do not recall the name of the file or the thread.

Ha I had become aware of that about a week ago but hadn't tried it yet. Memory failure! Thanks guys.

In next major release one FST will be possible to run several strategies. With customization will be possible to synchronize trading with different instruments, but this will not be in the core.

This is very easy for implementation. Only several lines of code of Expert have to be changed. But I'm curious why you need these changes.

Replace line 674
orderResponse = AddToCurrentPosition(symbol, type, lots, price, slippage, stoploss, takeprofit, magic);

with:
int newLots = lots + PositionLots;
orderResponse = CloseCurrentPosition(symbol, slippage);
orderResponse = OpenNewPosition(symbol, type, newLots, price, slippage, stoploss, takeprofit, magic);

It has a point Thank you.
In that case you can check the number of open order and to group them (close all and reopen) on reaching some count.

Here is the code:

Replace line 674
orderResponse = AddToCurrentPosition(symbol, type, lots, price, slippage, stoploss, takeprofit, magic);

with:
if (positions > 20)
{
    int newLots = lots + PositionLots;
    orderResponse = CloseCurrentPosition(symbol, slippage);
    orderResponse = OpenNewPosition(symbol, type, newLots, price, slippage, stoploss, takeprofit, magic);
}
else
    orderResponse = AddToCurrentPosition(symbol, type, lots, price, slippage, stoploss, takeprofit, magic);

where the max count of open positions is 20.

I can make this code standard in the expert.

Number of 20 can be adjusted experimentally for achieving best performance. We have to take into account that we will loose PositionLots * Spread in that operation.

I think that many people are using multiple FST.

Could it be considered that FST be modified so that it will operate, say, 30 ea's at once. or something feasible.

I have no idea if that would be feasible, however, it may save a lot of processing and memory... (I am not knowledgeable haha)

I have 42 instances of FST running and it is difficult to locate them on my screens. LOL

The good news........ excellent profits!

I so thank the developers of FSB and FST.......!!

Master Popov, if you're thinking of adding some sort of sudden excess volatility [#of ticks/unit-time] exit setting to the next MT4FST Expert Inputs tab, how are you thinking the user should or could enter  an appropriate value. As Footon says, the criteria for "excess" need not be precise.   For example the $amount of MinAcctBal need not be precise

dear community:  jgp has an el cheapo robot [MT4ProTrader] that has a meter that displays the %bull/%bear average of the last n ticks [30 default].  At the moment the market is closed and the meter reads 36% bulls and 64% bears.  You are presumably able to obtain some idea of how many ticks there are per unit time by how fast those numbers change per unit time and how fast the hand on the meter moves per unit time.  You can set the robot to trigger a buy or sell trade when the %bull or %bear numbers exceed a certain value for the first time during a minute for a 1minute chart, or the first time during 5 minutes for a 5 minutechart.  But the robot doesn't have a way to trigger an exit from an open trade.  jgp is not so much concerned about bull/bear % as I am about a sudden large increase for no apparent reason in the number of ticks per unit time compared to what it has been for the last n bars.
