Next update will be on

1. Closing order grid from inside out of the grid.
2. Preserve the last setting whenever the VPS/Laptop/PC got crashed/burned/shutdown
3. Add additional feature on the USE LINES like in here

{quote} I can add some feature on the USE LINES button to close a grid when crossing the horizontal line i.e. NAME_TP NAME_SL NAME_C TP = It will take profit (close the grid) when there's profit in the grid SL = It will stop loss (close the grid) when the grid position is losing C = It will close the grid The grid will be close when the price crosses the line accordingly. What do you think? ============== BTW I don't understand this part of your message I think currently the sl & tp say 25 pips is the average of all current active orders p/s Or...
Most likely #2 can be done over the weekend because the market is close over the weekend.

As I am very bad at giving a user guide. I really appreciate for anyone to COMPILE a USER GUIDE for using FlexyGrid. Just to be fair I made FlexyGrid free of charge, so I expect some one would kindly do a favor for everyone here: making a FlexyGrid user guide for free. Or maybe work together. That's fair right? Have a nice day
*** still compiling I am bad at user guide also just note the important details

FLEXY GRID_1.8 (14 - 7 - 2017)
AUTOMATED
SET A
Alligator - default
ZigZag, 5,5,3
RSI, 14
2 EMA (5 and 10) no shift


MANUAL
TRADING WITH LINES INFO:
NAME_1S
or
NAME_2S
or
NAME_1B
or
NAME_2B

1 indicates Grid Style 101
2 indicates Grid Style 111
B indicates BUY Grid
S indicates SELL Grid.



GRID STYLE (101 / 111 / 110)
Grid style 101, BUY GRID
Buy Stop
Sell
Buy Limit

Sell is the center of the grid
Buy Stop and Buy Limit are the bulk orders above and below the center grid.
So the SELL is meant to be a losing position that got hedged by the Buy orders.

Grid Style 111 Buy
Buy Stop
Buy
Buy Limit

As you can see the center of the grid is buying. On top and bottom of it is similar to 101 Grid Style concept, hence there's no hedge or

single losing opened order

GRID STYLE 110 Buy
Buy Stop
Buy
Sell Stop


PIPS SETTING
5.0 = 5 pip for both (4 & 5 decimal account)

COMING SOON.
Horizontal Line

NAME_TP
NAME_SL
NAME_C

TP = It will take profit (close the grid) when there's profit in the grid
SL = It will stop loss (close the grid) when the grid position is losing
C = It will close the grid

Many thanks man

I guess this could be an anoying issue and confusing. I didn't thought this in mind because most brokers now are offering 5 digits instead 4.
PIPS SETTING
5.0 = 50 PIPS 4 decimal acc / 5 pips 5 decimal acc

I think I will put this in my urgent list.
Im going to make it same across regardless 4 or 5 digit broker
4 pips in 5 digit broker = 4 pips in 4 digit broker

I need some idea for the AUTOMATIC trading. I want to make it a little bit smarter.
I wanted it able to know which grid is suitable for the current condition (Ranging/Trending) market.
I wanted it also able to know a suitable R:R for different situation (high impact to medium impact news). Let say when a high impact news came, then it will setup a particular grid with lower risk and higher reward (1:10);
Maybe in the AUtomatic, I want the EA to place a GRID when it's crossing a particular MURAY MATH lines.

I think before making the AUTOMATIC to be smarter. First we must have the news feature into the MANUAL mode.

For Automatic, I think it is best to leave the buttons as minimal as possible. I mean I want it to be super smart, that it doesn't need any human intervention like adjusting the logic etc. Everything is done by it self, it has its own market awareness or conciousness

Exactly, once manual logic is perfected then only automated trigger can be enhanced to search and destroy high profile targets. E.g. news. Using 110 type grid on an impulse reaction etc

p/s some examples: Key supply & demand area (with indicator matching eg stoch 15/5/5 with RSI 33 below 50) extended pivots / elastic bars (expansion more than 100 pips on eg H1) scanning all Pairs etc

I believe I have resolved the digit issue with 4 digits broker when placing the grid.

Please exploit it and let me know if there's any issue.
Inserted Code
double brokerDigitsIssue(double pips)
{
   double points=0;
   //4 ot 2 decimal currency/instrument pairs hence a 4 digit broker
   if(MathMod(Digits,2)==0){
      return pips/MathPow(10,Digits);
   }
   //5 or 3 decimal currency/instrument  pairs hence a 5 digit broker
   else{
      return NormalizeDouble((pips/MathPow(10,Digits))*10,Digits);
   }

Thanks OK Shop for the confirmation! I appreciate your bug testing result
Now that can be put aside. Time to add some feature for v1.9 that I have listed earlier

1. Closing order grid from inside out of the grid.
2. Preserve the last setting whenever the VPS/Laptop/PC got crashed/burned/shutdown
3. Add additional feature on the USE LINES like in here

This next version will take a while to be implemented especially #2 and #1
Both are very important basic security features before making the EA more advance.

Try this one here
https://www.forexfactory.com/showthr...3#post10084483

You want me to explain each setting?
I thought it's descriptive/self explantory enough in the EA's properties?

Please be more specific, which setting do you want me to explained?

Do we have an auto BE function?
Here is the logic:

The example is for the both cases, Buy Grids and Sell Grids
And the example is for the both cases, Winning Grid and Loser Grid.
I showed them different targets (different swings) for a better illustration of the concept.

The example shows that it always exists a BE level, no matter if Buy Grids or Sell Grids, Winning Grids or Losing Grids...

The example shows that the BE level is always at 1/2 correction from the original swing.(mind the spread calculus deviation)

I guess the main purpose of a BE option (after the trading Grid is already started) is to offer the opportunity to abort the trend or that particular market bias if the player has no longer analytical and tactical reasons to belive in it and in the same time to have the chance to get a BE if he let that Grid alive.

Caution: if you let a losing Grid alive (uncontroled), it might consume hard your Margin before market will come back at that particular 1/2 correction of the original swing !

How do you tell the BE level is always at 1/2 correction from the original swing?

Yeah I know what you mean. I believe I have promised some one to add a BE button. I can't recall who. But I remembred I promised.

{quote} I'm considering to have Auto-Breakeven, News, DrawDown (maybe) Questions 1. You mentioned "embrace the possibility of losing and decide if close the grid completely. " Let say when the BReakeven button is on. Big bearish news came out. YOur bullish grid never reached the breakeven when the news out. Then what? Keep the losing bullish grid open until it reaches the SL? 2. Displaying maximum drawdown? It's possible, but what for exactly? Can you think of any advantage having such feature for decision taking? If so, please explain it, so maybe...

Yeap, finally, everybody knows now that BE stands for breakeven, no problem lol
And yes, the BE level is always at half way back of the original movement (1/2 correction from the original swing) ...see drawings above

(edit: ...and mind that fkn spread deviation for your calculations)
