Since some of this thread users know my extreme interest in the wonderful ATR indicator, I saw a need in writing a very simple ATR Ratio pin as a filter to allow/disallow trades. This filter is implemented in ATR_Ranges HiLo pin, but in there signals appear only when price is near ATR pivots, whereas this does not have limits of signaling. Now, when the current range in particular asset's timeframe is exceeded, compared to that timeframe's ATR, most of the time it means it is not worth/not safe to enter a trade as price may retrace to its mean with...
Hi Leviticu83, I am not getting any signal to the MUX from ATR mtf indi.



Please suggest me if I missed anything. I dragged the ATR mtf indi PIN to the chart and set the pin to MUX. but no signal.

If there is no signal at all, then it might be that all 28 pairs have moved already 61.8 percent of their weekly range. Try to turn off your auto trading in terminal, and change the 61.8 to 150 and see if it will give signal. I think it shoud be the case.

EDIT #1: have thought again about your problem and forgot that in case of exceeded TO value there should be reverse signal...
EDIT #2 (hopefully last one): you won't believe - I have confused my pins! Indeed you are using not ATR Ranges (zones) pin but ATR RATIO (ATR percentage) which will give only BUY signal - it needs to go through Jagz's MUX Allow option and be combined with some other pin to give you the tradable direction. So in this case I expect there's no signal due to the exceeded weekly percentage and the price has moved more than you have set. But set this channel's signals as Allow, not Normal. Normal would mean that all of your trades would be buy - as pin has only buy and none signals. No sell signal for it.

Here is my MUX solution for the ATR Ranges as directional pin + ATR Ratio of D1+W1+MN.

Thank you so much for the response in detail. I will try the suggestion or wait for tomorrow and see, is there any signal display(with A mode). I generally like ATR ranges(daily)... that's why I am very much interested in your ATR pin. Thank you.

Happy to help. But have in mind that you will not get signal tomorrow if you're using W1 Ratio and leaving it as 61 percent. New signals will appear only when next week will start.

Can you explain how are you going to use such tool in your trading if there would be one? I'm not volunteering to this coding task, but it's really interesting what trading philosophy is behind your request, especially when using with EAX?

EAX Mod request @aeseme.

There are sometimes days that without any request windows 10 makes its feature update and reboots computer so that its user would stay safe. Or unluckily electricity goes off (yes, still no UPS!). At the same time there are several EAX dashes running with a different locked profit. So when the dashes are rebooted, the previous reached lock disappears, because EAX has no memory of what was reached before and locked. So my question/request - is there a way to keep such values when EAX reboot happens?

Example. 3% were reached, 1% was locked. If computer goes off - your profit too goes off! Can we avoid this with some EAX Mod?

Don't you just hate it when Windows does that!

FYI, you can Pause Updates for up to 5 weeks. I run my updates at the weekend, then set the next date. Setting this to a future Saturday means that even if Windows does reboot, it's not in the middle of the trading week.

Microsoft knows what is "best" for us -- perhaps it never occurred to them that a user might have a critical application running. Regardless -- as of Windows 10 one is almost helpless wrestling with Windows settings to prevent unwanted updates / reboots.

This is one of the strongest arguments for going with a VPS. Not only is network connectivity rarely interrupted (since your apps are running on a rack-mounted server in a datacenter) but, more importantly, the Windows Server operating system that manages the VPS software is not subject to the usual Windows updates. The Windows Server operating system is only updated when the owner of the machine (i.e. the VPS service) decides they want to update -- and they'll usually give notice in advance.

I would like to be possible to trade them via EAX.
There are gaps almost every day. Everyone knows how to trade the gap. But manually is difficult. For me personally, these gaps are similar to the imbalances in preferred shares, for example, and it is very logical to trade them in the same way.
For things to be accurate, each gap must be measured with the trading range of each instrument.

PS: if the spread allows.

Hi Leviticus

I continue with the BasketChart EAX PIN RW test. I tried several configurations but my setup now is as follows: EAX Dashboard + Currency Momentum Strength Meter + BasketChart EAX PIN RW in TF M15. So far is good to be able to pickup momentum and trend changes.

Periodically (every 15-30 min) I have to change the TF and go back to M15 to update the indicator. I think a nice improvement for this wonderful indicator could be to add the ability to refresh automatically every x min.

Kind regards

Ok guys,
I am on a move for some days, and EAX is running on my PC at home (PC and internet connection CAN'T be interrupted). I follow the trades from myfxbook and notice that they are NOT OPEN trades from all JPY pairs - USDJPY,EURJPY,AUDJPY.......
I am 100% sure there are signals to this pairs, but no open trades. In all other pairs there are trades regarding to the rules that are set.
What could be the reasons for this? Do you have any guesses?

Regards!

Hi. First thing to check is that myfxbook is actually updating your stats. This will depend on how you are connecting your account. If you are using the Auto Update method (rather than the EA or FTP) can find the stats are hours or even days behind.

Use one app to remote from your phone or tablet, like this you have live access at your home pc, no need to refresh constantly myfxbook while on the move.

With compared to electricity and wastages of your PC resources, it is worth paying 7$ - 10$ per month for a VPS which you can connect anytime using RDP. Also, nothing to worry about the internet connection. If you are concerned about fast execution depending on your strategy you should check it out as well. Once I had a VPS with a very low latency connection to the broker. it was 10ms to 20ms according to my memory. if you do fast scalping this is a good thing to consider.

There's no guarantee that when you manage to have all back and running again, your locked profits are yet in profit, thus I see this more as unsafe than useful.

Dear @aeseme,

Improvement Request on Money Management

Win rates of my strategies are very low. But I'm looking for higher rewards ratios. When I do trading manually the profits come with equal risk percentages (1% or 0.5% per trade balance). I'm usually looking for 1:3 RR or higher.

As an example, Let's say I use SL as some percentage of ADR and I need EAX to calculate the lot size automatically before triggering the trade based on the given risk percentage (currency pairwise calculation). At the same time, every currency pair has different ADR values and different SL distances. But Risking a similar percentage only.

Please check the possibility to include the auto lot size option. As I know nowadays everyone has some kind of strategy. But most of the strategies are failing due to a lack of attention to money management.

"It's not the win rate or the strategy, it's money management" that's what most of the authors saying

(In my above example, I used ADR% as SL. But maybe someone can use a different approach. That's for example purpose only )

Cheers from Sri Lanka..!!!

Hey, buddy, thanks for your reply and also for a new EAX version for coming 2022 year!

I do agree with what you say, but I'd venture to extend my example of "3% were reached, 1% was locked. If computer goes off - your profit too goes off!".

Please read carefully as it might take some time to sink in

Imagine the picture, which I've observed lots of times over this year: trades have reached 3% and 1% was locked by EAX. My pc after ordinary update comes back to life and automatically launches the MT4 terminal (internet is ok, so it doesn't take time for profit to drop drastically).

When launched it often happens there's no 3% of ongoing trades necessary to re-lock that 1% but on the other hand I'm still above 1% and would like to continue participate in profitable game. So if the basket is not re-locked, that means I have already lost it whereas I could get away with at least 1% profit.

But what if EAX could store in its internal memory or whatever it is (maybe GVs or simple txt number for profit logging) the highest reached percent before reboot event and respectively check that number with the lock list of "at P1 .. P2 .. P3 ..." numbers?

The coding logic is (ought to be ) as follows:

  1. ProfitLog.txt or ProfitLogGV has saved a ProfitValue=3;
  2. if (ProfitValue == P1 || P2 || P3) ,
    then select respective % lock for that exact value and re-lock it / restore to the lock due to pc restart.

I am thankful for the thoughts and do understand reasoning about buying the VPS service but with the amount of electricity I spend at home on my PC (~20 euro a month) I won't be able for that amount "hire" VPS with such specs of those of my PC: Ryzen 7 3700X + 64GB RAM etc. where I can run fluently at least tens of terminals with several EAX instances on each terminal. And regarding latency that it is faster on VPS - who cares if you hold your trades for weeks and sometimes months and take good profits??? Should I care about that? I don't think so. Anyway thanks for thoughts as always!

Hello Aeseme,
Hello to all the members of this thread, to the students, to the teachers, to the warriors and all the contributors, generous and kind members that share positivism.

First of all, I want to thank you Aeseme, very much for making EAX and this thread possible, which I read constantly to learn. I want to thank very much to all the positive members of this thread, also.
EAX is not only an EA, it is a powerful and versatile tool that teach you, since it let you learn by experience, while you run unlimited experiments, not only that, it open your imagination to create pins that can be added, to try new approaches and points of view, in order to face the constant changes of the market. It would be so difficult to run experiments, learn and trade without EAX, when the journey of a trader is already difficult.

I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2022 full of green pips!!!
