Auto News EA Deactivation

Hello

I modified an existing News indicator, so that it will disable the AutoTrading button before News Alerts and then reactivate it after a few minutes (all parametrable)

Every time you see an Alert on the feed, it will disable Autotrading a few minutes before.

You can parameter the Indicator so it shows only specific News

i also fixed a few bugs that made the indicator not work.

This is beta version, use it at your own risk! I cannot be responsible for any losses that happens with this indicator. Test it on demo before using it live!

Put it <Indicator> folder!

version 1.02beta
sorry guys not working yet

little update

there a small bug that i just thought about : the activation/deactivation of the Autotrading button is a toggle : meaning if the button is on 1 minute before the news it will be toggled off. But if it is off by mistake, it will be put ON, this is not the bug i'm talkng about, the bug is when the news are close together and the parameters ovelapp there is an issue :

for example there are news at 5:00 and 5:05 and the deactivation is set at 3 minutes before the news and the duration is 7 minutes:
at minus 3 minutes trading is deactivated, then at 5:02 the indicator thinks it's a new deactivation, then toggle it ON, then it is toggled OFF again at 5:04 then toggle on back at 5:09.

it's not a big deal in this configuration but it can mess things up a little bit if times are not right.

i'll fix it in a forecoming update, but please be careful in the meantime with that and keep in mind the close news can be an issue.

Jeff

oh i looked at the code again and my fears were not funded : if another activation occurs before the deactivation, it takes that new beginning as reference and then reactivate after the time passed of the second deactivation

so all was good initially (i do thing well the first time sometimes)

I added an option to "Close all trades" before the news : it will close ALL orders including pending orders before the news, and will not reopen them of course

Please test it and tell me if something has to be changed/new features added

Jeff

ok this time it is working (until next update lol)

you're welcome

Hellow sir

Hi, I am so happy with your news stop indicator.
But will this indicator stop for all news?
I want to stop my EA just when HIGH IMPACT news only.
Is it possible?
Thank you!

Good Day,
As per request from KJPTUBER, can the EA only de-activate / re-activate for major news events? Please advise.
Thank you,
Stephen

how does this work? I drag it on my chart but it says "failed" I put it on a indicators folder try on expert folder even livrary folder but it didnt work

i recieved an alert said "ffcal error, file download incomplete. but I downloaded it completely please help.

your idea is very good, I like to use "" IceFX.NewsInfo.v2.7.0 "", it helps me a lot

the file is not working, can you give another one that works , i need ea for filter news with close trade fitures

All Forex Factory news indicator stopped. So, icefx newsinfo is too.

Is there any specific reason for being stopped? This indicator has been extremely useful and essential to my style of trading.
Is there something similar to it?

Hello Ionone i tried using this indicator you made a few years ago but it doesnt seem to show news for me. Is it not working anymore or have u updated it. I would be grateful if you have. i really like the feature you made that closes trades automatically. the other question is when will the indicator close trades is there a time input for that?
