{quote} Please show us one chart of a pair that should have been triggered by the EA, so we can see if there's anything wrong with your setup.
USDCAD box set for Mon with start trdg Tue - the box seems to go to end Tue not considering the settings to Mon only

The original setting for start Wed I don't think there is any pair that even moved out of the MoTu box so far- reason I was experimenting with Mon only because times are not always as volatile as in the last few weeks.

{quote} You guess wrong. None of the pairs have triggered yet. Have you properly understood the strategy and how the EA works? If not, then you should read up on both.
I guess that's why I said guess - anyway I know none of the pairs have triggered but since your EA has the option to set the starting day I set it to Tues and as per my screenshot it should have triggered.

Nope - that still shouldn't have triggered. Why do you think it should have triggered? As I said, you need to understand the strategy.

Thanks for pointing out the issue with the box being drawn beyond the start time - it's currently hard-wired for Monday/Tuesday (as per the strategy), but I guess it does make sense to stop drawing the box if the start day is prior to Wednesday.

Hi Isreis, as you can see, the face on the top right of the screen dont't smile... {image} {image}
If the smiley face is sad, it means the Autotrading is turned off. Check the EA settings, "Common" tab for Autotrading tick, like below, and also mt4 menu Options-> Expert advisors-> Allow automated trading.

This being said, two pairs just triggered for me -> audcad and nzdcad.

Ok thanks - was not aware it was hard wired - will adjust accordingly.

And yes, GBPUSD just opened a buy trade

I have two EURGBP trades running now - one left over from last week that I didn't close.

A good first test of the multi-trade processing in the next version...

Given the fact that you have been a FF member for 1 day only, in my opinion, you are the problem

Learn how to use Metatrader and learn how to use EA’s

Try University of YouTube, it’s great

Or Uncle Google

It takes a lot for me to IGNORE you, but you can try.

clickclack you should load the adviser on many more H1 pairs, to increase the chance that trades will be opened

UPDATE: with ~25 hours left in the trading week, 16 of the 19 pairs I'm trading have triggered. 4 of the 16 are slightly negative but I'm up over 620 pips, so all is fine. I delayed the start of trading to Thursday +1 hour. That worked fine too but I missed 2 trades that I thought might not retrace and trigger, so I triggered them manually. I also had 2 pairs that had very long wicks in their Monday/Tuesday range calculation, that I switched to candle bodies only for range calculation. I have no TP level set but am trying out the MA trailing stop, with a tight 13 period setting. So far, so good. EA is working perfectly.

Thanks for that, going to be awesome going forward

I set the number of weeks to display to " 0 " but it still has 4 boxes on the chart?

Regards

PS, forgot to say, also tried 3, 2, and 1 but it is stuck on showing 4 weeks, changed timeframe to refresh, nothing happens

Bugger!

Thanks, I'll take a look.
