{quote} Thanks Jess. Ill get on it once Im done with my day job. So, to put it simply, I should NOT be having duplicate trades on the same pairs even if they initiated at different times (gmt) during the morning? Something must be wrong or not acting right?
The only way you would have duplicates if you setup more indicators on the chart. Fir exampleoyou setup 3 cmsm indicators each with different I'd numbers in the same chart. Then all 3 cmsm trade lists show a trade suggestion for EurUsd to buy. Then if you set allow duplciates true the EA will take the 3 eurusd trade suggestions and add the losts up to create one trade. But if u set both allow duplicates and allow opposite true then the EA will just open the trades individually. I which case you will see 3 eurusd trades.

But to get multiple trades that are more then what is seen in the trade list or of symbols that are not on the trade list then something is not right.

t dependi on what u set for Allow duplicates then

Ok. Are you only using Virtual Baskets so you can test multiple versions of the indicator on the same MT4 instance?

Im currently testing 4 different settings of the cmsm indicator, but Im having to do it with 4 separate MT4 Instances on demo. Is there a better way?

I cannot find the Indicator magic #'s or their specific ID #. Do they even have one? I know that the EA's do but I cant find the Indicators specific #'s.

{quote} Looks like you may be running two or more indicators on the same chart. If you are make sure you have different ideas numbers for each indicator and yes u can have a mix of the two different indicators on the same chart too. In addition I see different open pairs than what is seen on your image. Do this on the terminal tab(where u see the list of open trades) place your mouse anywhere in there and right click. Then from the pull down menu u will see select comments or "show comments".... That will show another column to the left of the profit...
Same demo did it again today. I opened up the "Comment" section. Does anything look fishy to you? Or are these normal "Comments"?

The last 4 (most recent) trade entries say "EUR" in the comments. My other 3 MT4 Instance Demos do not say "EUR" at all anywhere in the "Comment" section.

Post Edit: I have 4 separate demos going on 4 separate MT4 Instances, and I just found out that all of my Indicators (4 separate Indicators/ 2 are ccfp-Diffv2.0 & other 2 are cmsmv17) all have the same Indicator ID of 1. Could this be causing all the duplicate trade issues even though there are 4 separate MT4 Instances? I only have 1 Indicator and 1 EA on each MT4 Instance.

Ahhh yes you hit the jackpot lol.

Lol .we we're just working on that like yesterday too... Where you have those "EUR" characters that should be the indicator I'd number.
v44.6 already has the fix for that.
Just hang in there and we are almost done testing.... gotta make sure all bugs are out...

Tell u what send me your preset field and also send me the chart profile I want to emulate exactly what u are doing with all your setups..

Nope cause you have each EA and indicator in a different mt4. None know of the existence of the other. The issue is more involved but to give u an idea what may be happening is that the list of pairs I create in particular the indicator ID I associate with the each trade is somehow getting replaced with the EUR characters. So when the EA sees this it thinks there area more baskets and so more trades to open.

The funny thing is that this is now starting to happen. I mean many of us have been using 44.3 for quite some time and never ever say this. But then again many ofoour inputs are much simplier and I don't mess with multiple baskets nor flipped trades either.....

Go to the inputs window.. There you will see a button called SAVE lol.

Click the button, give your preset a name and save it. You will see exactly where you are saving it..

In order to find your preset and chart profile Click on FILE then select DATA FOLDER.
See this image: http://xm7.info/ea/temp/folders_location.jpg

Then you will see several folders one of them being the MQL4 and Profiles
See this image. IT also shows what is inside the MQL4 folder: http://xm7.info/ea/temp/data_folders.jpg

More than likely since u are new you are using the default profit. So go into the folder called profiles and zip up the folder called default and send that.

As for the presets just go the the folder MQL4 and in there look for the Presets folder. In that folder you will find the preset YOU named. Send that over.

J

NOTE: just zip all the files together and you can upload then on your next post. I'll grab them from there.

[quote = xmess7; 11.925.128] {quote} andare alla finestra ingressi .. Ci si vedrà un pulsante chiamato SAVE lol. Fare clic sul pulsante, dare il preset un nome e salvarlo. Vedrete esattamente dove si sta salvando esso .. Al fine di trovare il tuo preset e profilo grafico Clicca su FILE, quindi selezionare Cartella dati. Vedere questa immagine: http://xm7.info/ea/temp/folders_location.jpg Poi si vedrà diverse cartelle uno dei quali è il MQL4 e profili Vedere questa immagine. Essa mostra anche ciò che si trova all'interno della cartella MQL4: http://xm7.info/ea/temp/data_folders.jpgPiù che probabile dal momento che u sono nuovo si sta utilizzando il profitto di default. Quindi, andare nei profili cartella chiamata e comprimere la cartella chiamata predefinita e inviare tale. Per quanto riguarda i preset basta andare alla cartella MQL4 e in là per cercare la cartella Presets. In tale cartella troverete il preset hai nominato. Invia che oltre. J NOTA: basta comprimere tutti i file insieme e puoi caricare poi sul prossimo post. Io li prendo da lì. [/ Quote]

does not enter the discussion but I think an implementation of the AE with a max for the spreed would be very useful, depending on the broker and lease Europe, USA, Asia some currency exchanges are with very high spreed, in my case 2 lots 0.05 can make vary the VB of -50 or -10 pip, this means that a basket can be opened or not depending on the broker and location with different completions results at the same set

"Is My Team Ploughing?" Is candle filter working properly? Perhaps I am confused? G/A 08:00 GMT opened at 1.84488. The high since the open until now has been 1.84317. In short, candle has never been positive. Yet, EA opened a G/A buy despite H4 candle filter being used. Logically speaking (ahem!), when buying, and using candle filter, a Buy can not be made if entry price is lower than price at candle open. EA bought at 09:17 at 1.84251. Clearly, candle was negative.

FYI, same demo MT4 Instance did it again with the Duplicate "EUR" trades this morning. My other 3 Demo MT4 Instances have the same exact settings as the Instance that is messing up, but are not having an issue. Im sending the Indicator Preset / EA Preset / Profile in a zip folder. The Ill prob delete the v44.3 and then re-install it to see if that makes a difference on Sunday evening.

If you have any advice on fixing the issue before v44.6 comes out, let me know.

today i traded the open according to idea i posted earlier. I woke a few minutes late after the open. I must have made an error in setting up the EA it did not open the trades hence i had to enter the trades manually when i switch the computer on and some were entered late. TP was set at 20pips and was hit. i closed EN and EA at a small loss and EC at a small profit. I will continue to gather data on this.

So H4 is what you used as the TF for the candle filter and it was the only TF you specified correct?

At the bottom of the inputs you will find the input called "PrintDebugfilter". Set that to true.
That will give you the record of the pair and the values CloseOfNow and OpenOfCurrentCandle that were used to calculate the color of the candle before the trade is considered for the basket. If there is an error you will see that the values do not correspond to what is seen on the chart.

I am using the following MT4 functions to get the Open and Close prices of the candle
Candle open = iOpen(Symbol,TimeFrame,CandleNumber)
Candle Close = MarketInfo(Symbol,MODE_BID)

So as you can see the candle close is just the bid price at the NOW moment and the candle open is set to the open of the TimeFrame like this:
Candle open = iOpen(Symbol, H4 , 0) 0 means THIS H4 candle.

The only thing that could give an incorrect value is that the Symbol is incorrect. If that is the issue then you will see a different pair listed in the printout.

So please set that up and see what results you get. I have double checked the code and it doesn't seem that this part has any issues. Hmm it may also be that the collection of the pairs is shifted... That could be the issue as well...

I'll take another look at that part as well.

Thnx

Naw dude. Its a software thing. Re-installing it will not fix it cause its in the logic. Or better yet it is a condition that I did not anticipate.
For example the logic goes like this. I have the EA scan the text that is on the screen and as it goes line by line it collects info it need to create a list
So now for each pair I have x items of info that describe it to the EA. So imagine that just ONE thing is out of wack on the screen (in reality in the Object list not the screen) then it would mess many things up.

Here is an example :

Objects on Screen:
01_CMSM_Label_Suggestions_EURUSD EURUSD ---> SELL ( -2.90 , 6.35 )
01_CMSM_Label_Suggestions_AUDUSD AUDUSD ---> SELL ( -2.90 , 6.35 )
01_CMSM_Label_Suggestions_GBPUSD GBPUSD ---> SELL ( -2.90 , 6.35 )
01_CMSM_Label_Suggestions_EURAUD EURAUD ---> SELL ( -2.90 , 6.35 )

The EA will develop a list like this:
EURUSD, 01, SELL
AUDUSD, 01, SELL
GBPUSD, 01, SELL
EURAUD , 01, SELL

So do you see what I mean? If that first list has one thing out of place then the EA list will change.

Anyhow I will release v44.6 this weekend, maybe today if I time allows... It fixes the issue you are seeing by looking at the comment string.
if the comment string has LETTERS instead of numbers where there are supposed to be numbers then it will skip that trade. So all of the trades you are seeing with the character EUR instead of 01 will not appear anymore.

The reason I wanted your preset and setup of the indicator was to see if I the issue was with the combination of inputs. Other than I have to relook at all parts of the code to see if there is a mistake or something I left out. etc etc

I appreciate the in-depth explanation Xmess7. Im excited to test out the new EA Version.

To make testing easier in the future for me, is it possible to test out multiple "ccfp indicators" and multiple "EA's" but all on the same MT4 Instance? Maybe by using the Virtual Basket so there are no actual demo trades placed?

Having 4 or 5 separate MT4 Instances going at the same time is really wearing on my computer lately.
