Guys any idea on why does the EA open trades against the trend ? Of course the trades now are in loss. I think if we share some ideas we could rework this behavior. Thank you.
Blessing3 opens its first position based on your input setting thereafter it trade using the grid strategy

study the full Appendix 2.

how you use the FMC is important.

Here you go. Could do with Richard to confirm whether 'Automatic' or 'Long & Short' corrolates with FMC 3.

Guys please another question,
why do i have the following problem
2020.07.13 10:01:45.268 '4293316': order buy limit 0.05 EURUSD opening at 1.13189 sl: 0.00000 tp: 0.00000 failed [Trade is disabled]

with MT4 & FPMarkets ?

Other pairs work well and if I open a manual trade, I can do it.

Thank you

I'm pretty sure FMC refers to the ForceMarketCond parameter. The 'original' Blessing (.09) contains this comment in the code referring to that parameter which agrees with that version of the manual:

Inserted Code
// Market condition 0=uptrend 1=downtrend 2=range 3=off

I changed Off to Automatic, hoping that would make more sense to some. Hope I haven't added to the confusion. I haven't made any changes to code in those areas. And almost all of my testing has been with this parameter set to the default (3.)

There may be magic in there that I know nothing about. Perhaps some will test and report. There are just too many parameters for one person to test everything.

I have been wondering about another possible state for FMC, something like 'strong trend.' Haven't had enough time to explore it well.

FPMarkets has a weird system where the RAW account with smaller spread has a .r at the end of each symbol (eg: EURUSD.r USDJPY.r etc etc) and the regular symbols (eg: EURUSD USDYJPY etc etc) are disabled. I noticed they also have higher spread so those symbols must be what are active for their standard accounts with no commission.

Furthermore, I closed my FPMarkets account because while the spread and execution was amazing, they lower leverage from 500:1 down to 100:1 gradually for balances over $10k.

i'm ignorant but you could replace the leverage with bigger lots...no ?

Hi Richard,

Thanks for the confirmation regarding the FMC setting. I had assumed that automatic was equivalent to off, but with it being mentioned it occurred to me that I did not actually know if that was the case. Is the long and short setting a new feature that you have added, or is it effectively FMC (3) as well?

As far as I know, B3 uses the MA channel and /or the CCI indicator to determine whether the market is up/down trending or ranging. I am pretty sure that the MA method is hardcoded (default) as it seems to work even if you do not have the MA indicator selected, i.e. off. The CCI on the other hand only works when the CCI indicator is selected. Please correct me if the coding tells you otherwise.

Not for any given account balance. With a lower leverage your margin requirements will increase and so must your account balance to accommodate the increased margin requirement.

Guys I have another question for you.

I have a MT4 with EA running on EUR/USD and it displays "Trend is up"

Now i have just started EA with another broker, always EUR/USD and it displays "Trend is ranging"

Why ?

Hi @richard96816,

Do you know why Blessing is using a temp file on the disk to track open trades? There is a huge performance hit by doing so.

I would think this can and should be replaced with a global variable? However I'm still fairly new to MT so I may be way off here too...

Have you read much of the rest of this list?

Assuming all settings were the same, different brokers have substantially different data. (How many times have I typed that here?)

Read more. Post after.

that's simple.

first, you must learn the internal logic of Blessing3 and how it determine the three market conditions - Trend Up, Trend Down and Ranging conditions, then don't use them for your own trading.

as the trader, you must decide the market type conditions and then trade according to the timeframe.

I use my Daily and Weekly timeframes for market type determination. This will fix the Trend UP, Trend Down and Ranging, regardless which timeframe chart I have my Blessing3 (v3.9.6.09 as base version) running.

An example - GBPAUD Weekly will show what the market type is Trending Up, Trending down and Ranging. You manually set your Blessing3' FMC to trade. You know the depth of the Weekly and when you have to cut-loss in case when you are in the wrong market type.

I think a higher timeframe trend option might be helpful. I've seen some impressive systems that trade on the weekly basis. Forex seems to work well in that realm.

If we had a good higher trend indicator we could have it control the ForceMarketCond parameter and do interesting things.

Might work ...

Hi to all and particular to CDSAA!

Hi Richard96816,
on TF 1H for trend of higher time frame I use 4 sma :
15 and 21 daily
15 and 21 weekly
these 4 sma are usefull for support/resistance
during last weeks I am trying Mladen's indicator HALF TREND multitimeframes ,on 1H I put daily and weekly HALF TREND
on 1 min i put 1H and 15min HALF TREND

I think 4sma or HALF TREND can give you good indications for direction long or short

I am new to this 3d...I read all 102 pages and now I am reading manual and setting but I am not a coder so it is dificult for me....may be I will ask for help next days.
