FAQ of the Day: Q. How many consecutive trades will the EA Open on one pair? A. Go to the Trade Plan you created. On the Aggressive tab, you'll see afield: Entry Levels. Default is 20. This means you will have a maximum of 20Entries in one set of trades on a pair before an Exit point is hit. A moreconservative position could possibly be to reduce that number to 10 Entries.However, that could open you up to a greater risk as trades Opened later inthe set tend to be more profitable the the initial trades Opened in a set.
