Update 37.9 Beta 0

xm7_Ccfp_Wkly_TradeMonitor_v37.9_beta_0.ex4

Hi folks:

Please download and test. This version has major improvements with time and suffix detection. Major improvements on both functions.
For example 30 lines of code are not 10 lines of code. This means not only faster execution but also more accurate execution and if a bug shows up
way easier to find it and fix it. The time fix should take care of all those "missed" open trades that some of you have reported.
Some of the text information has also been condensed and you will also see the graphic panel changed in size a little.

As of the last version I had left the options for you to use the CandleColor and BBSqueeze inputs on it. It was a mistake LOL but no problem.
The inputs work and can be used.

What we were doing is setting the range to allow the EA to monitor the baskets all day. (Ranger 00:00-23:00)
Then the CandelColor input was set to "D1,W1" with the Indicator CCFp-Diff_[v2.0](1) to TF:=WK Level=2 UseCurrent=T UserBarInsteadOfMA=F
Just make sure you have the Indicator CCFp-Diff_[v2.0](1) int he folder \Indicators and EA beta39_0 in the \Experts folder.

I didn't add any takeprofit or stop loss parameters. I didn't cause I was still in the data gathering mode. I was trying to determine the highest TP and Lowest DD so I could set the appropriate numbers. What was noticed tho is that as soon as 100 pip where hit we could take a quick profit.. Anyhow I leave all those blank so u can experiment.

You will notice that on the input "Delay x Hours ..." I have set it to 3 with the Allowed Trading days set to Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday,Friday.
the 3 hour delay is so that if you set a TP/Sl the EA will not start trading until 3 hours after the basket has been closed. This was a feature that we saw necessary since we are dealing with the range of hours in which the EA continuously looks for trades. you can change this hour to your liking.
Also even though the EA is only going to trade from Tuesday-Friday. The real intent was to find out if we even need that many days. So maybe only Tuesday is necessary.. in which case I would set it to a weekly basket instead a of daily as is it setup in the template.

All the settings for both the EA and the Indicator are in the template. Just make sure to have both indicator and EA in the correct folders.
Once you load the template you can then create your own presets if you need to.

I will be looking into the other recent concerns and suggestions...

Thnx
Jess

PS: I hope to start trading more than coding soon. That's when it gets real interesting .

Jess Hard Worker Hi, not been here for a while
This Ea update does it still have the previous rule
of Not taking Duplicates on 2/2 - 4/4 Ccfp Lists when "Allow Duplicates" is set to false?
It's a unusual when it comes to trade Even lists and it is better on Odd Ccfp lists
but even on Odd list of 3 ccfp's then it won't take the pair displayed on the other 2 Lists (as one pair only)
which is a shame because 1 Pair displayed on 2/3 Ccfp lists means FF/FT/TF signal strong and i know well
that works for fast news too_

Thing is this rule forces users to have to change settings and set "Allow duplicates" to true
which could be a good thing, but also a major risk if that pair goes down of course with all its related duplicates = one 0.01 becomes 0.04 if 4 pairs_
The only way i can make it work now is by using the Eax.
We worked with Sam to make better rules when it comes to decide which pair/ double pairs etc .. should be allowed
when there are situation like his, and if you are interested i will email you the details.

Just reminding you that as the Ea it is now, it won't open baskets if it sees 2 Lists with the same pairs
Hope you don't mind me saying this. I care for the good of the Ea
That rule broke my heart .. It's like having a Ferrari with the engine of Fiat 600
Wishing you a green Mt4 as usual and appreciating your work for us.

hi all, what should I install to try this system? thanks

Yep please send me the information. Just need to be able to see a clear picture of what you are talking about.
There are other users that prefer the rule the way it is cuase hey just don't want duplicates period. So as you can imagine there has to be like some sort of mechanism where it can work for everyone.

And also explain again to me, what you were looking for the EA to do with regard to duplicates...

Jess

this screen shot is middle part of the input setting page. please can you upload the whole input settings?

Ignored

Hi jess, I have tried to explain a few times and I did say, i do not want duplicates
the reality is another, see if the photos illustrated can help i will try to explain again
If anyone here is willing to try this, it is fine
Also if you open the Ea with the Current Rules as it is now and you open another manual Ccfp on the side with the proper Rules
and compare result. You will be surprised at different results
People don't complain because they never look deep into matters and don't pay attention to details
They press the Button and if goes well by luck they post their screenshot with hundreds of pips, and that is not Forex
About me i can't live with Ea's or Pins with limited functions and wrong rules

It is a bit unacceptable that i have 4 ccfp Lists of Gbpusd, Huge movement, strong signal,,, and it is not taken because on wrong rules imposed
by those who don't know how Ccfp works. I know I now lol, it's not you who made it, but pls jess before listening to people
it is always best to ask them proof of what they say and why they think so.

I love this Ea, but at the present it cannot be used with those options as simple as that..
Jess pls dont hate me, i just say the truth and i am sad that you misunderstand me
for the rest love and affection as usual

What if you select false and true for the allow duplicates and hedge option, does it work correctly then?

The EA its perfect in any other way and it is a beautiful Algo from xmess
IN regards to Allow duplicates to False and Hedge to True, this last one does not make sense to me
and i don't use it, as we are telling the Ea Not to take Double pairs and we are also telling the Ea to take Opposite pairs_

For example you see in chart AUDCHF taken by the EA as a Buy, when there are in List 2 AUDCHF Sell and 1 AUDCHF Buy
It's nice that Hedging option it is there, but it does not make sense with Ccfp-diff

(In 1st Pic below Shown) [Hedging True / Duplicate False]
GBPAUD has 2 Greens 1 Red and it gives it as a Sell,
in normal options of course this won't happen.
Same thing it does it for GbpCad

Then we got another Case:><
The Ea will do this with False to False
if you have example 3 CCFP Lists and you have
GBPCAD_Buy GBPCAD_Buy GBPCAD_Buy = Trade Taken at lots 0.01 = only one Trade will be taken (not 3, only 1 Trade of the same Pair)

if you have example 2 CCFP Lists and you have
GBPCAD_Buy GBPCAD_Buy = No Trade will Be opened

if you have example 3 CCFP Lists and you have
GBPCAD_Buy GBPCAD_Buy EURUSD_Sell = EURUSD/Sell only will be taken but Not GBPCAD... (as an example, but real example)

Another Case which is better would be
if you have example 3 CCFP Lists and you have
GBPCAD_Buy GBPCAD_Buy GBPCAD_Sell = GBPCAD Buy which in this case is right,,, Then if it is right on chart that is another matter
as here we are concerned that the Ea needs to be right

Hope i have not given you headache .... I am not using much ccfp now, but n the past i use to sleep and eat with it

[quote=jenbols;10560555]{quote} Hi jess, I have tried to explain a few times /quote]

Well this time i got the message . No worries no one is mad or anything like that. Just need to understand yer info. so based on what you indicate this is what u need to do ...

Set the Allowduplicates, Allowhedging, AllowOpposites all to true. Then set SummedLotSizes=true. Thst will takes trades just like u described. I know its cryptic lol. So i am going to simplify it in the next version.

Oh btw thw originator of these rules is a "friend" of yers lol

i will also add that last option you mention.

thnx for the final explanation, this time i clearly saw whst you where referring to. Actually all it took was for you to show that small example where u are combining buys/sells for 4-5 pairs combinations lol. The moment i saw that i got the picture, lol.

Jess, updating the Ea with the above underline feature will be greatly appreciated, please.

Hi,
I can't understand where can be a problem: CCFp-Diff v2 works on all time frames excluding 1440 (1 day). I get an error - "zero divide in...."

Make sure you have all the history loaded.

Use the force load history script I shared a few pages back, or check the paperclip at the top of the page, and run the script, then it should work fine.
