{quote} My friend, building a katana will require you an entire field of skills ( in most part technical ). But fighting with a katana will require you a totally different field of skills, which use some principles ( big part of them are psychological ). If you understand the principles, you can fight also with nunchaku, tonfa, a knife or even an umbrella ..... Also in trading, if you understand the principles of trading, you can trade profitably with indicators from BTM, with a simple RSI, with a naked chart ...But knowing how MACD or RSI works...
I hear you.

I'm not trying to lecture anyone here. I'm just saying that it - could - be fruitful. But if there is no need for it, well, no problem.

Hi all. Did anyone get any further signal than this GBP/CAD BUY for today?

Also some feedback on this one would be welcome. Seems like a valid buy signal according to the rules as far as i understand but would have been stopped out. I did not take it, just asking.

Can you check all the rules and tips one by one on this opportunity and put them and the check result in a post ?
Also can you put in that post the reason why you say "would have been stopped out" ?

{quote} Nice one I noticed that every auto-trade triggered, the TP always set to TP2 line in my case. Did you re-adjusted the TP or you just let it on default?
Oh really? This would explain why the auto trades i had so far did not close as expected (even hitting TP 1).

1- I wanted to ask you if it is possible to add an option, that is, activate a time window in which the EA must send the signals, for example: alert start: 09:00 AM alert end: 17:00 PM from 09:00 AM all the signals will begin to be sent. after 17pm all the signals that appear will not be sent (email push etc.) in order to limit trading during market opening hours and avoid receiving signals continuously even at 11:00 pm while sleeping.
Yes i agree this would be nice. I am only interested in trading one trading session. Having a filter option here would be awesome. Thanks in advance.

Buy Rules

a) wait to BUY arrow will appear
Yes

b) trend must bullish clearly
Yes

c) candles pass base line (for safe,not necessarily)
Yes

Ok so after reviewing it again, SL would NOT have been reached.

I still feel hard to identify these levels on the BTM charts for M15. Would it be possible to have text marks like SL/TP added to the dotted lines?

here is the answer for requesting addons for the dashboard :
The dashboard will not update and will not get any new future.

i see auto trading makes many of you here distracted. the main goal of this thread was finding best edge (entry) ,managing a trade,book profit before market moves end . as this system is manual and we are ffs a trader,i set some TIPS to analyse the market situation before opening any trade . that help us to understand the behavior of market moves .
long story short,dashboard makes this goal forgot . so no any update or addons will add to the dashboard .

use dashboard for only monitoring pairs signals and get alert on your phone or email.as soon as you receive alert,you must go check the chart and follow the rules and TIPS.

don't waste your time on EA or auto trading dashboards.if they could be profitable,Morgan stanley or any other banks or fund managers would use that and all books about market trading would sent to the trash .

follow big players (banks,...) and see what are they doing.first you can see they analyse the market by manually, not by ea . so let analyze market manually which the goal of this thread is .

Remove E indicator replace it with this https://www.mql5.com/en/code/15777

Set calculation mode to FLOOR, disable S3,S4,R3,R4 and change colors make them fat, thin etc....
Anything above the line is an uptrend, below the line is a downtrend.

If there is no further update regarding the auto trading part, thats fine. If there is no further update regarding other parts of it that would be a big pity. Check out the wishes mentioned here like having an extra option added to set activating signals only for specific trading times (which i guess would be usefull for just everyone).

Like that? What is the difference in the "Display Mode" between "Historical" and "Today" here? I setted them to today now. Looks like the same levels as with the "E" indicator.

Some "noob" question. @BTM attention, feel free to skip

Maybe anyone else can help.

Example chart for going long: GBP/CAD

Now the rules say it is "safe" to go with trades where price passed the baseline. However that is somehow contradictory with one of the tips saying always make sure not to take trades where a good risk reward is not given, because i notice most of the times where price pass the baseline and we get a signal a good risk reward ratio is no longer given because price already moved far to near TP1/TP2 (in case of a buy signal).

Like in this example according to the rules (as i understand) BUY signal number 3 would be the safest one because it passed the base line. BUT risk reward would be only about 1:1 from SL 1 to TP 1.

Where trade signal number 1 or 2 here would look "better" to me as they appear much closer to the trend indictor lower band giving enough room to hit a good take profit target which is at least 2 times greater than the SL.

So what would you do here?

Don't forget about the tips, my friend. They are a valuable filter ... Without them, there will be problems in long term.
I really cannot see the issue with identifying the pivots. There are only five horizontal lines for the entire day ...
One advice: you can eliminate G indi from the chart, like this you will eliminate those white stairs. But don't remove it from the folder, just from the chart...
