What about this
I would like to have max 2 positions.
So i set up lot size opening 0.01, lot size for adding 0.01 and max lot size 0.02
But what if I use percentage?
max lot size should be in percentage too
so I can do like
opening 1%
Adding 1%
Max lot size 2%
But what if I use percentage?
max lot size should be in percentage too
It's better max lots limitation to be in lots.
You can easily calculate how much is 2% of your account and to set the limitation properly.
For example, if your account is $500, leverage is 1:100, and lot size = 10000:
Max amount you can open is 500*100 = $50000.
2% of $50000 = $1000 = 0.1 lot.
You set max open lots to 0.1 lot and you are sure your position will never go over it.
But what if I use percentage?

I would like the lot size to improve automatically based on balance
So let's say 0.01 lot per each $500
and max 2 positions
I do not want to do it manually

I use that feature also and would like to see it on the Pro version if possible.
Another Bug
Another Bug at start happens every time '' this time with data source ''
The problem is the data sorce is Iron forex folder but the symbol list read from the Demo folder !!!!!
And to Make it read the complete list of ironfx folder ''the actual list'' i have to select different data source folder and then select again ironfx folder to be able reading the actual symbols
in the attached picture as you see i select the iron forex folder but the list of symbols come from another folder
This what happens when selected another folder then returned back to ironfx folder '' Quick refresh 
''
the whole symbol list appear
Thank you for the reports. I'll try to fix them in next beta.

Thanks to Ahmed's report.
...
Symbols bug also fixed.
Ahmed, thank you again for the report.
I reproduced and fixed the problem.

Yes, otherwise the whole percentage thing lacks any sense
Old bug transferred from FSb to FSB Pro , Its a non harmful bug but it will be better if corrected
When open two instances of an indicator the two indicator appear in the indicator window in the editor page But when go to indicator chart in the review section only one indicator appear

But when go to indicator chart in the review section only one indicator appear
This is by intention. If both indicators has same signature, chart show only one indicator.
If these indicators has different params, they has to show different texts on the chart.
This is ToString() method. If strings are different, the chart will show both indicators.
Probably you have to fix the ToString() method to show all params.
Example of correct code:
public override string ToString()
{
return string.Format("{0}{1} ({2}, {3}, {4}, {5}, {6})",
IndicatorName,
(IndParam.CheckParam[0].Checked ? "*" : ""),
IndParam.ListParam[1].Text,
IndParam.ListParam[2].Text,
IndParam.NumParam[0].ValueToString,
IndParam.NumParam[1].ValueToString,
IndParam.NumParam[2].ValueToString);
}This is Gann HiLo indicator code:
/// <summary>
/// Indicator to string
/// </summary>
/*public override string ToString()
{
string sString = IndicatorName +
(IndParam.CheckParam[0].Checked ? "* (" : " (") +
IndParam.ListParam[1].Text + ", " + // Method
IndParam.ListParam[2].Text + ", " + // Price
IndParam.NumParam[0].ValueToString + ", " + // MA period
IndParam.NumParam[1].ValueToString + ")"; // MA shift
return sString;
}*/As we see the function is even commented and it's not active. That's the reason for the "problem".

Hello footon
both old one and new one shows this chart lemitation
The problem is in the indicator.
The chart is intentionally designed to suppress equal indicators (such with equal signs).
Link the indicator, I'll check it.
both old one and new one shows this chart lemitation
Hmm, it worked on my end fine before I uploaded it. Regarding the old one - that's dust bin material, I've taken most of those down already
It's better the indicators to be uploaded in the Repo.
It's much easier to use them from there.
Link the indicator, I'll check it.
My answer is here: http://forexsb.com/forum/post/24546/#p24546
when open two instances of one indicator example'' bollinger bands'' one of them default and the other is LTF and both share the same period number it draws only one indicator

Hi Popov.
This error appeared and I can´t neither remove it nor change anything in data horizon.
Can you help me with this issue?
Thank you
FSB Pro cannot read Start date or End date for the used Data source. Data source files are located in
Please open your data source file and scroll to its end. You'll find two dates set:
"C:\Program Files\Forex Strategy Builder Pro\User Files\System" and starts with DataSource_###.
For example: DataSource_FSB Demo data.json
You can open and edit these files with Notepad or other text editor. FSB Pro has to be stopped.
You'll find Data Horizon settings near to the end of the file:
"StartDate": "2000-01-01T00:00:00",
"EndDate": "2020-12-31T00:00:00",Post the settings in your file.
Change your settings with the upper once.
Thanks for your reply.
The problem persists.
Since it is difficult for me to explain it in english, I´ve thought send to you an email with a video. I think no explanations needs but if not, be free about ask me for more details.
