Hello Thank you for this excellent thread, you are awesome. I have the same issue as Blackeagle. I have IC markets, no Europe or US regulation. Works in demo but not in real. The option "use market watch to true or false" doesn´t solve it {image}
@Iggo -- others have run into the same problem and the issue has been resolved. You'll need to review some recent posts to understand how to solve the Alerts.

Hi Skipper,
the report you posted is from Jan 2017 thru Dec 2019. How many of those trades are related to this methodology?

{quote} @Blackeagle -- thank you for following up with the explanation. That's the second time I've seen that -- where Market Watch can have two sets of symbols -- one with and without a suffix. One you can trade and the other you can't. Very strange.
Hi Steve, Oanda accounts has different programs for its clients with different spreads/Swaps etc, each associated with different suffix appearing after the pairs. In my Oanda account, a "-5" suffix appears after each of the pairs I could trade. I can only trade currencies ending in "-5" in that particular account, even though I can also still see the pairs with no suffix. If I want to trade the pairs with no suffix, I'd need to open another account and pay a different spreads/swaps/etc associated with those particular pairs.

@Fymdgly -- thanks for clarifying that.

So the problem some people are having is this...

Normally when you trade an EA you open a chart from Market Watch and attach an EA to it. Since you opened it from Market Watch then MT4 knows about that pair. If Market Watch lists pairs you can not trade -- e.g. in your case pairs that do NOT include a "-5" suffix -- then you know not to open a chart with that symbol.

There are 2 BDX EAs that trade multiple pairs -- the dashboard and AllPairs EAs. There are two ways to specify which pairs to trade:
1. Tell the EA to get its pairs from Market Watch -- in which case it will attempt to trade all the symbols in Market Watch. If your Market Watch includes pairs you aren't allowed to trade then that becomes a problem.
2. Don't use Market Watch and manually input which pairs to trade. By default the EAs list 18 of the most common pairs -- but without any suffixes. If you don't want to use Market Watch then you would need to edit the default pairs to use the appropriate suffix.

I don't consider this a bug -- it's a small price to pay in order to trade multiple pairs, which few EAs can do. People need to become familiar with their MT4 software and their broker -- I can't do that for them.

@Fymdglv -- I know you didn't claim there was a bug. I was just using your post as an opportunity to explain why some people are running into this problem.

This just in from OANDA -- their new policy regarding FIFO order handling for US clients...

"We noticed that you recently submitted order(s) that did not meet our updated FIFO order handling requirements. As previously communicated to you, beginning August 16, 2019, we have changed our “first in first out” (FIFO) order handling. At this time, all orders of the same currency pair in the same sub-account must have a unique size if they have a take profit (TP), stop loss (SL) or trailing stop (TS). This will not impact orders that do not include a TP, SL or TS, unless another order of the same size is already open in the sub-account with a TP, SL or TS."

Good evening Steve.
My multipair is working very well in renko 10 pips.

One question, for the exits the midline or the transition of Heiken Ashi is being used. Could you help me with the smoothed indicator to attach it to my renko chart to see how it works.
Thank you

Greetings from Ecuador

I tested it for a week. Overall, it was good. However, you should be careful when the signal is sometimes short on the dashboard.

@Vicente
Hi Vicente,

Thank you for sharing your experience with Renko charts with us. Please correct me if I am wrong. My understanding from your postings is that you installed the BDX-AllPairsEA on one of your offline Renko charts. I am assuming that if you were using a 20% figure for your EXtremePriceADR% input in your renko blocks of 5 pip each, that for your 10 pip blocks you'd have to increase that number to 90-100%?
My question is this: how do you know the that other pairs traded are actually off of renko charts when the EA is not individually installed on each of the offline Renko charts?

The workaround as is very CPU intensive, but still doable. You'd set your max open trade to 1 and open a separate chart with different lot size in a different sub account for your second position of the same currency (Cause otherwise FIFO will not be followed on the same sub account which will lead to error messages and the positions not closed in time by the EA).

Question regarding dashboard.

Apologies if this has been addressed already.

The dashboard as this is using the BDX indicator to get its information when we get a dashboard signal but when looking at the currency pair in question there is no sign of a dot or arrow are to disregard the dashboard signal.

Also how does this occur if the dashboard draws its information from the same indi?

@R4m I know you are a busy guy with all these questions so appreciate any info re dashboard signal and no chart signal.

Regards

Hello @Simontw -- I would need to see a screen shot of both the dashboardEA and BDX indicator. The dashboardEA should correspond with the BDX indicator as long as the time frames and settings match.

@cyd09 -- OOTB? Why not make it easy on us -- why do I have to spend time Googling to figure out what that means.

You have the BDX indicator -- so use it to figure out whether or not there should have been any trades. Why would you expect someone else to do that for you?

Unfortunately, I did not get a pic. I shall get screenshots next time.

It was on EURCAD, USDCAD and GBPCAD Buy signal on the dashboard and nothing on chart. All H1.

Many thanks, I shall screenshot in future.
