Okay, it looks like the Out-of-bands check/condition wasn't even in the original V2 in the first place (and thus my version didn't have it either). I have added the condition in this one, so I believe it should now work as you expected, but please ...

Okay then, Here is V7.10. I integrated the FVE as before and also fixed some performance issues---the tester should be a lot quicker now and the EA should be a bit healthier. Added a new input for verbose logging (I thought it was logging/printing a ...

Hello again to all, I've been quite busy, so sorry for my silence. I think the issues you guys are having MIGHT be due to the fact you are relying on the external FVE indicator. I have gone ahead and integrated the FVE calculations directly into the ...

Hmm, I might be wrong, but do you have the input for "Only One ATR Zone Lockout at a Time" turned on? I would assume that's why there wasn't a sell lockout. So: For 1: The lockout was indeed started since no trade was taken (though as seen before, ...

Hey Chris, It appears that the lockout was not started/initiated by that last trade that you mention, instead that lockout has been active since "14:41" as can be seen in the expert's tab and visually in the chart. However, it's quite weird that the ...

Greetings, I have finally finished the new EA (SORRY for the big delays), it encapsulates both the Single Band Mode and the described Multi Band Mode (as well as global midline features). It also includes the ATR Zone Lockout (post 317), and True ...

Hi Chris, Sorry for taking so long for the EA, I've had little time to work on it. However, I have a fully working MT5 version, now I am just converting to MT4 (should hopefully be done later today). I was wondering if you could please explain your ...

Ah! I think I see the issue. Correct me if I am wrong but the broker you are live testing is different than the broker you are back testing, right? I say this because as can be seen in your screenshots the price on the backtest appears with 3 ...

Hi Chris, working on it right now. Yes, I will add 2 more ATR bands for that ATR indicator section matching what you posted. As for your question about the ATR indicator implementation between modes, you would simply change the inputs (i.e. put the ...

Hi, I am working with Claude.ai (sonnet 4.5) (just the free normal tier). I have a whole process and it's quite recursive and time-consuming at times. But once you do it enough you end up picking up some nuances/quirks that make the whole process ...

The strength of BE system

Hi Chris and everyone, I was thinking of making an all-encompassing EA, that is a new EA that would capture each of the 2-3 modes you described. That way there isn't an EA for each mode per se, and it could be easier to test and the like. So indeed, ...

Yes of course (I saw your post about the calculation, yeah, I think I know about those problems with division by Zero (it happens everywhere ). So just to confirm you do want me to implement this Standard SL% option (as an added option)? What are ...

The strength of BE system

Okay I see what is going on (I think) Essentially this is my bad, % of account (against the norm as pointed out by RiskFighter) determines SOLELY the position size NOT the SL (in my terms), the SL is solely determined based on which mode you have ...

The strength of BE system

Okay I might be stating the obvious here or I might be deeply mistaken, but isn't this somewhat expected since (I believe) you are using the Local Swing SL which by nature ends up giving you different (adaptive) SLs (on the highest price for the ...

Greetings guys, we're all adults here let's keep it that way. In fact, I agree a little with rogerha with the EA being a bit lumpy, not saying it's flawed (though not saying it isn't, since I haven't personally tested it thoroughly). rogerha I ...

Hi Chris and all, Here is the updated EA with the addition of proper SL Lockout activation (post 138 and 172). Inputs are pretty straightforward, choose your lockout activation mode. If you choose "Activate when dot Appears..." and you have the ...

Hi Chris, Yeah, I think I know what's going on, this is my bad for not fully explaining that Dot Lockout feature further. I am aware that your initial vision of that feature (as seen in post 138) is different than the one implemented. Essentially ...

Hi, sorry for the late reply, is it working now? If not, do you have the most up to date MT4 build? Can you share some screenshots of what you see (i.e. the Journal Tab, chart, etc.)? Does it not work even on default inputs?

Hi Chris, thanks. Yup you should definitely be able to close all trades at the end of the day just make sure you define your "end of day" as your Daily Stop Time and have "Close All Trades At Stop Time" to True, or if you want them to naturally ...
