Unique "Timing" EA (need help)

Hello everybody,

I need help from a coder for my unique EA system.
I have the EA but i need some additional functions.
Let me first explain real quick how i trade and what i would need.

Like most of you will know almost every EA is based on price, % change of price, different indicators (which is also price movement).
Almost nobody is looking at the "TIME" factor, or not using it correctly at least.
One could understand that the time factor could be used as trading or not trading when news comes out, but this is not the case.

I use fibonacci timing analysis in combination with cycles. This gives me verry clear "times" when a market will change trend.
We can do this from a 1min chart to a weekly chart, so on all timeframes we can predict "times" when there is a high % chance of a turn.

Now i had some guy that build me this EA but he isn't working anymore on EA's so i would need help from others to complete this EA.

Right now this EA let's me put in 'times' when it needs to trade. So it will only trade at these given times that i will input.
It will open sell or buy trades if it triggers the RSI. I can input at which RSI it will sell or buy.

So example: i input MONDAY , between 01:00am and 05:00am
So between these times the EA will look for trades.
If the market triggers an RSI of 70 then it will sell, if the market triggers an RSI of 30 then it will buy.

Now the PROBLEM that i have: I can only input 1 timing.

But i would need more inputs ..

Example how my trading week inputs looks:

Monday 13:00 to 15:00
Monday 19:00 to 21:00
Tuesday 03:00 to 05:00
Wednesday 10:00 to 12:00
wednesday 14:00 to 16:00
wednesday 21:00 to 23:00
friday 12:00 to 14:00
friday 15:00 to 17:00
friday 19:00 to 21:00


So if somebody could add more inputs to this EA that would be awesome!

Last problem that i have: The EA only works on RSI TOUCH, but i would need a feature so that i could select between: RSI TOUCH, RSI CROSSOVER, RSI CROSSDOWN

Could that be possible?


The reason why this EA will work is because i have verry good knowledge of market cyclic patterns, so i can predict which direction the market will go on long term or short term basis. So it's SEMI-AUTOMATIC. The EA helps me to open and close trades when i am sleeping, working, or doing something else.

I hope someone can help me with completing this EA, as i think it will not be hard for a coder to complete this..
But i have no knowledge about coding. Also if someone can make this for me i will be open to share my market predictions with them and/or will pay for the work you delivered.

Thank you

Time control feature can be added by some kind coder
I think,at first Gann may explain/demonstrate his idea with illustration picture/s - and use some advanced featured rsi rather than a simple one and may be some more stuff required too,do not want interfere and or interrupt but simply my 2 cent -

{quote} how many inputs do you want {quote} give examples for each
So instead of 1 timing input i would need 10 timing inputs.
1 timing input includes: The day of the week + timing when to start trading + timing when to stop trading

I would need 10 inputs like i just explained above. Example of 1 timing input: Monday, from 12:00 to 16:00.


For the second feature..
I would like to have the choice between RSI touch, RSI crossover, RSI crossdown for entering a trade.
The RSI feature is also already coded in the EA but it only works with RSI touch.
My system gives much better results with RSI crossdown or RSI crossover so i would like to have the choice between these 3 options.

Can you code this @paulselvan ?

Here i have uploaded a picture with an example how the EA would take trades.

So first of all, the EA WILL NOT WORK without my cycle analysis. Like i said it's semi-automatic. So without a good trend prediction the EA will not work.

In this case it is an example of GOLD last week. My prediction was that i would go down for the whole week.
So in this case i would only open SELL positions on GOLD during that week.

As you can see in the picture: the vertical green lines are my timings when i expect turns in the market
When you look down you can see the RSI is marked with red circles, that's where the EA should open trades. When RSI crosses under 60 it will open sell positions.
As you may see we only trade in 1 direction and that is also critical for this EA to work. It's all based on my cycle analysis. Without that the EA would really suck.

So the settings would be like this:

Only open SELL positions for that week
Only open SELL positions IF RSI is above 60 and crosses down under 60.
This will be on a 15min chart, but the EA works on all timeframes.

Stoploss and exit strategy i am still working out, first i would need to test this EA to see if it opens the trades correctly.
If that is the case then i would go further with the exit and stoploss strategy.

So first things first, who can code this?

"rsi touch" rules are known :

if the market triggers an RSI of 70 then it will sell, if the market triggers an RSI of 30 then it will buy.

And what are the rules for "rsi crossover or crossdown" :give examples for them

So for RSI crossover: RSI needs to be under 40 , once it rises again above 40 this will trigger a buy signal.
For RSI crossdown: RSI needs to be above 60 , once it falls again under 60 this will trigger a sell signal.

The RSI levels are adjustable, so in my EA i can already adjust the levels to 40/60 or 30/70.
I just need to crossover and crossdown to be added in the EA if that's possible?

I dont know what parameters/values for rsi you are experimenting,better to try on some thing smoothed for to avoid false and or a lot of signals

That could maybe help and i have thought of this but this was not my question.
To make the EA more perfect is a problem for later, first i need the EA coded and working.
Then finishing the exit and stoploss strategy.
Then running it live on small account to see how the results are and after some weeks of testing i would search to make it more perfect with better indicators and/or better settings.

For now as you can see in the example we have almost 100% of the trades directly going in profits.
For me that's more then enough, i rather focus more on my cycle analysis as this is the basis of my system.
Without good trend prediction the EA will fail. So cycle analysis is 10x more important then the settings of the RSI.

Are there any MQL4 coders who would like to work on this?
I would appreciate it alot and we can always discuss money after i have proof that the EA is working correctly.
