DislikedYes, wait for the next bar, trailing SL happens on new bars only. I believe this is the way the strategy goes - Mister ED could you comment on that?Ignored

DislikedPlease check out messages in the Terminal/Experts tab. I wonder if you see there any ERROR, WARNING or INFO entries?Ignored
DislikedIn experts tab it says 'cannot open HA smoothed' file from indicator.So I guess the HA smoothed hasn't been downloaded properly. Where can I find it? I downloaded it from this thread only.

DislikedI've attached them with a txt ext. Forum doesn't allow .log files.
I think the display problem was because I had added the ATR_pips_comment indicator from this thread and it was in the upper left corner, same as your EA. When I remove the ATR indicator or start a chart and just add MisterEd (now ver 8) I eventually see the status and message. I miss having the ATR and 50/200 values shown on the chart. Is there any way to add them to your status info? Or allow the user to set your info in any of the 4 chart corners?
However, I'm still getting...Ignored
DislikedHi JRpips8,
Where did you leave the attachments?
As you mention FXCM, they offer no-dealing desk execution and their platform may not accept SL/TP values with the initial market order. The EA however submits market orders with initial SL & TP values which would conflict with their platform - so the issue you see. I wonder if someone could confirm this behaviour of FXCM MT platform...
If this was confirmed then the EA order management logic will have to be changed to submit market order w/o initial SL & TP, then as a follow up to the created...Ignored
DislikedI've edited my post above: the original experts log attachment was about 19 MB, too large for the forum. I selected a representative part of the file and uploaded it.
FXCM does not allow MT4 orders to include SL/ TP. They must be added by modifying the existing trade. Is that the problem? Hope it can be fixed as I've been using FXCM for several years and am very satisfied with their service and quality. Would hate to have to go broker hunting, again.Ignored
To enable this feature set TwoStepOrderSubmit to true, otherwise keep this to false.
IMPORTANT: this feature is NOT fully functional as it will submit orders fine when everything goes right without errors. However NO appropriate exception handling logic is in place should the second leg of the market orders fail, ie the (successful) first order will have no SL or TP associated should the second fail! EA will stop in this case and this must be adjusted manually as soon as possible before EA is re-enabled.
Please check this out to see orders on FXCM now get through...
DislikedI extended the EA with a new feature to be able to perform market entry in two steps:
- Submit market order with no SL & TP
- Modify the new ticket to add the SL & TP
To enable this feature set TwoStepOrderSubmit to true, otherwise keep this to false.

DislikedAt the cost of looking naive I have to clerify the value of ATR and the calculations.
Suppose we get a color change candle of EURUSD. The candle has its high as 1.41828 and the low is 1.41294. The ATR oscillator show its value as .0051 Now how to calculate if its a valid signal.
Your help will be greatly appreciatedIgnored
