May Be this will help. You need to extract the files into MT folder.

If you don't know how to use Zip file. Watch some Youtube videos.

Though why do you need the PSC-Trader script? It is no longer used with the latest version of the Position Sizer.

Hello! Started using the 3.02 version on EightCap MT4 and got a problem. I set a pending sell limit order on ticker AUDUSD.i at 0.69134, but the position opened at 0.69095. Risk was calculated to 1 % on my entry, but then changed to almost 2.5 with the new entry. What could have happened?
No idea. Was the pending order created at 0.69134? There shouldn't be any slippage on limit orders, so I don't know what happened here.
The entry line was at that level and entry price in the calculator window was the same. Price barely moved and yet it did what it did. Looking at the Expert output I see market execution, which confuses me.

Since it looks like the order was placed at the correct price, it's the broker's fault that it has been executed at the wrong price. Limit orders should be executed at a given or better price. You should contact your broker about this.
Market execution isn't the same as a market order. It is just a different execution method compared to Instant execution.
It would help to see a screenshot, but most likely, there is some calculation problem - originating either within the Position Sizer or within the broker's data.
Definitely we can blame the Brokers for the higher slippage. The tool place orders at what values we give.
Could you please check the minimum volume size on USDHKD?. You can check it by right click and specification on the symbol name in market watch window.
My best guess is that it fails to find the correct currency conversion pair while USDHKD is defined as a CFD instrument by the broker. Is there any output in the Experts tab?
Exactly. Some of the brokers have configured their MT wrong.
@Gainz Kindly check with your broker too.
This is an amazing EA, can you add the option to go to breakeven using % positive, instead of points of broker?

Hello,
Is there any problems about the 3.02 version ? I mean I've had some problems with limit orders like a wrong volume size calculated. I should have losses and didn't get them, and so on.
The last line is an order put after have closed MT4 + PSC and started them again. It seems to have the right value in term of volume.
Thanks,
