Would you like to use your skills of coding ticks based EA as well as Renko/Ranges by way of tick blocks and not pip blocks?
If you code a simple EA quickly I can assure it will be a money spinner for a trader who knows risk and money managment.
EA will enter trades without any filter. Which means random trading.

He knows your capabilities well and I respect his judgement.
Would you please code this EA with a strong hope the disciplined traders will be able to make a fortune at this time of turmoil.
Also please reward yourself for the splendid jobs you have done for FF members. Unfortunatlely, lacking capital, they play video games all the time looking out for new strategies to play around.
99% of FF members think FF provides them some sort of a magic lamp and they can become millionaires by using $100 to $1000 in month's time.
Elusive "EFFORTLESS SUCCESS"is what they are looking for. It may take them years to find out that there is no such thing.
Programmers visit FF with hopes of finding nuggets of gold that can convert them into entrepreneurs selling indicators, EAs , signals and who knows they might also be harbouring the same aspirations as to others harbour.
i have given 35 years of my trading initially doing the same things everybody does keep shifting from one strategy to another impatiently and going nowhere.
My journey was on similar track but with a view to learn and practice on dummy trading accounts. Having a comfortable well-paying job, there was no goal of becoming millionaires or any pressure of making money than the goal of taming the uncertain financial trading markets. The journey has been quite rewarding giving me an opportunity to enjoy the process without worrying about outcome.
Since last five years, I am only trading when I feel the market has got strong momentum. Also only when the symbol delivers momentum. Now is the perfect time and I don't have the tools except manual ones. Bionics is confident you can code the kind of ticks tools that I am confident can work today and until the vaccine is developed.
This tools will record the kind of trades I have not done in the past and may be in future too. I am 71.
What does EA do?
EA enters trades randomly - can be both buy and sell at the same time or just buy or just sell using no indicator or any filter other than direction to do so.
Inputs:
1. Time for lookback :From: Start Time (Date: HH: MM: SS, Day) to End Time (Date: HH: MM: SS, Day). Day is automatically generated in output. No need for inputting this field. Knowing Days is important to know which DAY is very volatile.
2. Direction: Up or Down or Both. Random Trading will generate both buy and sells. Traders with the knowledge of risk and position management will use BOTH to manage drawdown.
Only when incidents like Brexit and Corona virus crisis happen you are quite clear about the direction, then I will select Direction of Up or Down based on my discretionary thinking.
My experience with Brexit is mapped through my TE : https://www.forexfactory.com/simnz#acct.09
Now exactly this situation is prevailing. You can really make handsome money by trading CFDs other than Forex. Forex consists of two symbols, both pulling each other in opposite directions.
CFDS of single symbols just travel in one side playing hide and seek, so easy to find out their movements. They don't engage in tug-of-war. Difficult to figure out which side will ultimately win.
Manually, I use only High and Low of yesterday to trade CFDs. No oscillator . No indicator. Using Bollinger Bands in Pips to plot intra day.
BB Pips to know the high low size of the BB today. Measure both extreme ends. ADR or ATR also can do it.
Using BB middle line to know the size of the BB in pips from the Middle line.
Using Buyers and Sellers indicator coded by CJA to detect instant momentum manually.
3. Start entry when Pips Distance of XXXXXXXXXXXX ( number of pips) touches any of following levels
(a) Yesterday's high : Yes or No
(b) Yesterday's Low: Yes or No
(c) Today's defined Price level (any or current) : Yes for my own price level or No For current Price level
(d) Today's Open Price: Yes or No .
4. Maximum no of trades: xxxxxxxxxxx lots
5. Use blocks of ticks to print bars histogram on chart ...........(no of ticks)
6. Magic No:
Output:
1. Enter Trades
2. Print histogram of ticks in sub-window in Bars (mini candles). Very important like range or renko bars
3. Build data in sub folder Files of MQL4 to store CV formatted database. For research of finding hot minutes/hours/Days
Trade management will be done manually.
If you have a fully tested Trade Management module, then please include that too.
God bless you.
Thank you
Practice makes a person perfect
