The EA also has a 24 hour count down clock at the top under the price that shows the trade window. It will be RED when not looking for trades and GREEN when looking for trades. It looks at the start of a new candle as determined by your Broker's new candle start. It waits 10 minutes at the start of a new Daily Candle before it starts to look for a trade, this is when all the new calculations are done for the new day. It doesn't take the computer that long to do them, but gives a safe window. The trading also stops when the count...

First of all Many thanks for the hard work put by seller 9 in building this EA.

There is no trading hour concept here in this logic , whenever a pivot is cut by the price a trade triggers. so if you prefer some specific time then you can switch it on and off.

I will review and post my comments , I am not clear on why yesterday close was used , but anyway if it is required for the EA to assess things , it is fine.

we humans are way too advanced :-)

Here is version 3 of the pivots EA for everyone to try next week. It is a very basic Pivot EA with not a lot of Bells yet, they can be added later on as the testing moves along. I have been using the default settings with good results. At this time I have just been going for a single TP of 10 pips with a stop loss of 30 pips. Before we add multiple TP points and maybe BEJS, lets see how this works before anything else is added. It will take multiple trades in the same direction if the rules listed below are met after...
how will i know what the EA has selected based on the open ?? ( r1 s1 or PV)

I've ran a few tests already but nothing positive. I'm using a 10/30. What is the magic number in the settings?

If you set a magic number, then using that number the EA can identify it's own trades. If there is no magic number, then it's set at the default 0 value like the trades made manually. If you want to hide from your broker that you are using an EA than don't set a magic number.

Just try the defaults, I had good results with forward tests with them.

Be sure to set Buyer and Seller to true.

I have never trusted backtesting, next to useless.
Which pairs you are trading this with? and which tf

we are not moving ahead with the development of this EA any further as seller9 does not share my idea of sharing the mql file in the forum for these EAs.

My ideas are for the welfare of the entire community and not for the welfare of any particular individual.

since i am the conceiver of these trading ideas , what you are saying is totally unfair, I should get a copy of the mql file of my trading ideas, it is another story if you don't want to share it in the forum. However the very purpose of me sharing the ideas is with an intention for welfare of the community of which we both belong and in its betterment lies our betterment.
If you had read my disclaimer on the etb forum where you found me before you asked me to code this you would have seen that I do not share the code as I feel it is my intellectual property. If you had hired me to right the code than it would be another story, than you would have the rights to everything. If you rather stop at this point and find another coder, which there are plenty of, I will understand. Since we have only just touched the surface of your trading idea this may be a good time to stop before you disclose all your ideas. Trading the Pivots is not a unique trade idea as it has been done by many, including the pros for years so I don't see where you are the conceiver of these trading ideas.

So for now I will put the EA on hold in its developement.

Hi Seller, I don't get you. You don't mind taking someone else's strategy for your own. So you have never looked at someone else code for your own EA. Also, I fear you have found a very profitable strategy when working on this EA and you are not sharing that strat with this community. You don't mind everyone testing your EAs and finding all the bugs for you. Are you afraid someone is going to take your EA and sell it on Ebay? What is the deal?

Trades should get triggered only around the pivot/support/resistance area.

It looks at the start of a new daily candle as determined by your Broker's new candle start. I can say that it works on 5 digit.

Hi, You don't mind taking someone else's EA for your own. So you have never looked at someone else strategy for your own Ideas ? Also, I fear you have found a very profitable EA when working on this Strategy and you get upset because the coder is not sharing the EA 's code with the community ? You don't mind everyone testing your Strats and finding some optimisations for you.What is the deal and your real intentions
