Please see attached picture for my setting (default). I can notice that my "Risk_Percent" is only 1.0 while yours shows 1.5 but it should not give such a big difference.

Be sure to do a few evaluations in the backtest.
This is how you realize that not all pairs go well like the EURUSD.

I also did a few tests with the Optimization (for 6 months so that it runs faster), but that didn't help much either.
I'll use an additional trick to calculate the levels, let's see if that helps.

...Interesting, well done! I must admit I am planning at some to test your indicator as a main signal for trend following system... looking at the chart above it looks promising...
Basically the strategy of AbleSys is to determine the trend with the indicator, and further use fractals and retraces for entries.
You can do something similar with the "MTF_Fractal" indicator like this:

I think it's to early to make any conclusions from my results.

I have just run a simple Monte Carlo simulation based on 60% win rate and series of 30 tests returning either 1 or -1. After just a few runs the lowest negative sum/result was -12!, and there were still a few results still below my trading results....

So I think nothing unusual is happening here.

Thanks SwingMan for the info, I was thinking about something similar, but MTF Fractal might actually be better for this.

What I would always recommend is the Fractal Kiss idea.

Wouldn't be bad to program if someone tests the idea and formulates a few rules.

I just did a very quick visual backtest of fractal kiss idea, based on 1D direction and entry on 4H... looks very interesting indeed...
I will try to get back to it next day, hopefully I will have a bit more time.

Today's (day 5) results: 2 trades triggered: EURUSD, USDCHF, both lost. Results after 31 trades: -5R.

I seem fractal levels are not stored in buffers from MTF indicator, so I don't know how to recall them.

I don't understand the problem, this is not a question for a programmer...
One can add to "init()" for better information:
Inserted Code
SetIndexLabel(0,"Fractal-UP");
SetIndexLabel(1,"Fractal-DOWN");
and one has the values here anyway;
Inserted Code
UpBuffer[i] = iFractals(NULL,Fractal_Timeframe,1,iBarShift(NULL,Fractal_Timeframe,Time[i]));
DoBuffer[i] = iFractals(NULL,Fractal_Timeframe,2,iBarShift(NULL,Fractal_Timeframe,Time[i]));

Hi SwingMan,

I realize that after restart the EA clear all active position. Could you fix this problem to not delete and close already open positions and if possible to continue manage his positions.

Yes that correct. Also if I have another open positions from myself and activate EA immediately closing all of them.

New version of Expert Advisor "smBodySwitch EA_v1.6"

I hope that the error has been fixed.

Added a parameter (Enable_StealthTrading=true/false) so that for many pairs not all pending orders are sent, because only a part of them are executed.
Please test and let me know if this helps.

The same story. For example I have opened by hand position on EURUSD. When I upload SM EA 1.6 on EURUSD immediately delete my hand open position.
Also on same platform working another EA together with SM EA 1.6 when another EA open positions SM EA 1.6 immediately closed all of them.
