Leave computer running?

[Headshot22]

This might get moved to the beginners section but:

Does my computer have to be left running for the the Money Management Panel to do its job.
I know the strategy is 'set and forget' but will the EA still do its job if the machine is switched off?

I would test this myself but having a problem running the MM Panel at the moment.

Yes it does, if you need the panel to do any kind of trade management - like trailing stops. Otherwise, no you don't.

But for split money management entry etc would pc need to be left on from trade entry to trade exit?

No, because it sets up the pending orders straight away - which sit on the brokers end.

As long as you see the pending orders places in your trade terminal you don't need to have the panel running. Only if you use the breakout option with the avoid Asia session breakout option - then the panel needs to stay open to monitor the market and place the orders at the right time.
