Hello Traders.

Every now and then a thread of that kind opens up. Even I had a similar thread in the past, which I, unfortunately, couldn't keep up with (apologies to whoever I wasn't able to reply to). Got really busy then stayed off forex completely for ~2 years. Well now I have some free time. So, I will code your EA/indicator for free. However, such threads tend to always have a very low signal-to-noise ratio. Plus, many requests come up so quickly that the original author just can't fill, due to their limited free time. So I'll put some conditions here to try and regulate the process to an extent.

First of all, a disclaimer:

 

  1. Anything developed here is by no means a secret. You agree that any coding done through this thread will be available to everyone, for whatever use, under a public domain license.
  2. If I accept a coding request, I will do my best with the free time that I have to do this. BUT I will provide the code under no guarantees whatsoever. I will not be held liable if you lose your money using any of the free code developed here.
  3. If you write a request in this thread, I will assume this to be an implicit agreement to the disclaimer.


With that out of the way, here is how this is going to work:
Currently, I can allocate 4-5 hours a week for this thing. Most probably on Fridays or Saturdays.

This means that I will only be capable of working on 1 project per week. So please, when writing a request, keep that constraint in mind. Try to make sure that your project could actually be done within a 4-5-hour period.

Also, I apologize in advance for whatever requests I will not be able to handle. I'm doing this on my free time, so I will definitely not be able to take in every possible request.

I have not really settled on a selection process yet, so that may be subject to discussion. For now, the thread will just be open to all requests. As already stated, the development cycle is a weekly one. So at the end of the week I will select one of the requests that I see fit for a 4-hour coding period, and will start working on it.

Finally, this post is where all the important updates are going to be. So please, read carefully before responding. Now, let the fun begin!

i need an ea. which is place pending order above and below of previous candle close and open (not in high and low) if u can add these two option that will be great. That means pending order above below open close,and pending order above below high and low like true or false option in input. if it is bull candle above buy below sell same vise versa. the gap should be adjustable. That means if we wants to put 5 pip below or above the candle that should be customize. when after present candle closeif ea. didn't execute order that must be deleted and repeat again same procedure. If one order catch for example buy order executed thenpresent candle close then pending sell to be deleted and place below that present candle that must be continue once hit TP, if before thatsell order cached before stop loss hit then buy should be close and put buy pending above that candle. and need moneymanagent,risk management,trailing stop, break even, profit lock also to be add.

Note :- if u can add reverse trade that will be helpful. (sorry for my bad english )

Thanks

Hi, it wolud be great if u can help to code this EA
This is a semi auto-trading..

1) we manually draw a horizontal line on chart (say green color line as Support)
or (red color line as Resistant)

2) When price hit this line (go beyond max. 'x' pips), then bounce back 'y' pips, EA will open a trade.

Eg. first we draw a support line(green) @1.2000,
price hit this line & drop to @1.1997 (3 pips below/beyond support line)
then bounce up (say @5 pips), will trigger EA
Buy [email protected] 1.2002 ,

SL, TP & Lot size are Preset.

*For resistance line is opposite, price move up hitting red line(max. allowed 'x' pips above line), if price drop 'y' pips will trigger sell.

The parameters(adjustable):

1) support line color: green (manually drawn)
2) resistant line color: red (manually drawn)
3) lot size: 2.0
4) TP: 30
5) max pips (allowed) to move beyond the support/ resistance line: 6.0
6) 'rejected' pips for opening a new position: 5.0
7) SL: 7.0

*EA will trade only 1 time for each support/ resistance line hit.

I forsee this EA will help us a lot in trading.
For this strategy our job is just to pinpoint 'crucial lines' in the chart, plus draw them.
The EA will then take care the rest..

mtarek16,

I would very much appreciate it if you (or anyone else) could make a fairly simple EA for me. The EA that I need is one that will move my original stop to breakeven ... once the price has moved a set number of pips. So, for example, if I type into the EA box the number "50", then when the price moves in my favor by 50 pips, then the my stop would move to breakeven. At that point, my trade will either go on to hit my target or it will come back on me and be stopped out at breakeven.

I really need this for my trading system. If you can help me, I would be most grateful to you.

P.S. - If anyone knows of such an EA in existence - whether here at this forum or somewhere else - please post here in this thread to let me know.
