based on the journal presented in the above link .
The journey cozyboks has shared shows Hr1 Peaky is a winner.
He has seven months of data. So i believe peaky as a filter is a great plus.

I have taken liberty of adding another slope to slope peaky rider. Call it slope3.
I have removed c1borg EA from TE has c1borg in it and replaced with slope 3.
If you are using the jim version of c1borg and only allow 1 trade then that is fine. But if you allow more than
one trade well . I don't like the way it sends out the other stops.
From what i understand , Jim wants c1borg to initiate the first trade and then have another ea manage that trade.

I observed awesome 2 SS send buystops on CADCHF yet super slope H4 was down and superslope D1 was up. It supposed to only if they are both up. Also it is not waiting min distance between pips to send buystop after first buy trade. There could be code allowing it to do that i have not read , but from area where conditions are set for sending a trade it says it sends trades min distance pip apart or maybe i am confusing something. Could be the external input of max signals to follow (which is 3 in c1borg settings) means the firs three stops sent dont...

A trade on steve hopwood called marx , who is trading awesome 2 ss on live account has made the same observation. I have highlighted his observation.Marx conclusion about such a situation is that it is dangerous. His idea of how to fix it does not work. So you have marx myself and merlin saying that unless this bug is dealt with , the ea is high risk. This is a high profit high risk EA. Unfortunately i am unable to code a fix because it is a one chart trade all pairs EA.

hi ezios
i have gone and seen it. Nice toy to play with. As i have said above, awesome ea code has a bug which i can not fix. I would love to be able fix because it would mean i can modify these one chart trade all ea and i would do away with these ea which i have to out one on every pair i want to trade.

Hi ezios

I have two test i am conducting. The ones above this thread. In two weeks time i will have enough information
to confirm if 1- the code is flawless 2- which setting is better 3- how much draw down

though we should test longer but i believe i have taken what other people have been testing and have proven to profitable and have combined their work
to try produce a profitable ea with acceptable drawdown. also an ea that can start on a usd 200 account. thats what most traders can afford.

we are still waiting for merlin to share his magic ea

i will only be able to suggest in two weeks time

Great work buddy...lets see what next week gives us.

I have another question....
I would want to test something with the baluda superslope indi, but for me to be able to build an ea, i need colorLevelHigh and colorLevelLow (the lines in the indi) to be buffers. Ive only coded with icustom so have no idea how to read "the level lines" without them being buffers.
Is this something you have time to add Candy ?

hi jim
using slope3 ea
line 28 has
//SuperSlope colours
#define red ": Red"
#define blue ": Blue"
//Changed by tomele
#define white ": White"

line 3126 has
//Buffer 0 holds first currency in the pair
val = GetSuperSlope( HtfSsTimeFrame,HtfSsSlopeMAPeriod,HtfSsSlopeATRPeriod,1);// this icustom

then line 3128
//Changed by tomele. Many thanks Thomas.
//Set the colours
HtfSsStatus = white;

if (val > 0) //buy
if (val - HtfSsDifferenceThreshold/2 > 0) //blue
HtfSsStatus = blue;
if (val < 0) //sell
if (val + HtfSsDifferenceThreshold/2 < 0) //red
HtfSsStatus = red;
}
thats what i copy to add new slope. what you trying to do? in relation to what i have shown

I see 2 buffers in the indicator. Those should be the slope1 and slope2 buffers (the blue and yellow lines in attached picture).
I want the green and red horizontal lines to be buffers aswell so i can code them in as a condition

Using the peak Hilo indicator as you attach to your chart , play around with the DifferenceThreshold and you will see the red green lines changing

I believe the condition you looking to add is in place.
Line 2847 has the indicator code
double GetSuperSlope( int tf, int maperiod, int atrperiod, int pShift )
{
double dblTma, dblPrev;
int shiftWithoutSunday = pShift;
if ( BrokerHasSundayCandles && PERIOD_CURRENT == PERIOD_D1 )
{
if ( TimeDayOfWeek( iTime( NULL, PERIOD_D1, pShift ) ) == 0 ) shiftWithoutSunday++;
}
double atr = iATR( NULL, tf, atrperiod, shiftWithoutSunday + 10 ) / 10;
double result = 0.0;
if ( atr != 0 )
{
dblTma = iMA( NULL, tf, maperiod, 0, MODE_LWMA, PRICE_CLOSE, shiftWithoutSunday );
dblPrev = ( iMA( NULL, tf, maperiod, 0, MODE_LWMA, PRICE_CLOSE, shiftWithoutSunday + 1 ) * 231 + iClose( NULL, tf, shiftWithoutSunday ) * 20 ) / 251;
result = ( dblTma - dblPrev ) / atr;
}

return ( result );

}//GetSuperSlope(}

The indicator is called up later on in ea and a value obtained from the indicators calculation.
if the value is greater than zero it is said to be a blue colour meaning up.
Now the value at which colour blue can determined can be changed
That is if the value is greater zero but less than blue call the value white.
Then once value exceeds one, then colour blue can be kicked in and white out.
I believe this is what you trying to do.
if you go to line 3133 it looks like this
if (val > 0) //buy
if (val - HtfSsDifferenceThreshold/2 > 0) //blue
HtfSsStatus = blue;
