Dear Alan and all other readers to this thread,
I wanted to use CNT EA form the http://www.currencynewstrading.com for automated trading, but unfortunately it is hard to install and I just can't get authenticated. I got so tired to of trying to get that to work, that I decided: I will make it by myself.
Luckily I found this thread and the Amazing EA. It is great, than to Alan for creating and maintaining it! And to the other for motivating Alan
So, I had the chance to extend the code of Amazing EA to use an external list of trades and switch between the trades automatically.
Today it is finished, functional but still need some debugging and testing.
First of all I ask you Alan:

First of all I ask you Alan:
- What about the rights?
- Can I use my extended version as my own EA?
- Would you like to incorporate the extension to a new version if it runs reliably?
I am open to all suggestions, solutions.
So here is how it works:
- You have to make a TAB separated txt file with different parameters for one trade in a row like: date, time, currencypair, SL,TP,risk,..
- The EA selects the actual trade and cares about that just like before. I jumps to the next trade at a given time before that is due. That given time is a new parameter of the EA.
- One drawback of this technology: as soon as the EA jumps to the next trade, it leaves any open orders and trades unhandled. So it will stop trailing, etc... It is not such a problem if you are AWARE of it.
- I would like to hear your opinions about it, also if you have any suggestions, questions, just feel free to suggest, ask.
