Hello,

I am very sorry that I am so rarely present here. I am very busy job & familywise.

Since I do not want to slow down the development of this method I have decided to publish the source code. The expiry is already removed, so everyone can use it right away and unlimited.

Please feel free to modify the code, publish it etc. Please nevertheless respect that this is supposed to be free software. Thank you in advance.

======================================================

Late edit: To run this expert in it's uncompiled form you need to unpack the attached file OrderReliable.zip into your folder ..\experts\include.

I think I did the same mistake as you or you did same mistake as I Pay attention because he said:

"To run this expert in it's uncompiled form you need to unpack the attached file OrderReliable.zip into your folder ..\experts\include." <- not in experts.

Place the EA in Experts folder and the OrderReliable.mqh (from the zip) in Experts/include folder. It should appear colored and not in gray color, that means he's active.

For me it's not working in Strategy Tester.

Edited: And if I don't compile it it doesn't appear colored. After I compile it and after it gives 2 warnings it shows colored. Here are the warnings after compilation:

Compiling 'BAT EA V 1.5 free version.mq4'...
Function "OrderModifyReliableSymbol" is not referenced and will be removed from exp-file
Function "OrderReliableLastErr" is not referenced and will be removed from exp-file

Uncompiled it doesn't work. I mention that I test this during weekends, does it matter ?

I'm able to run the EA & use in Strategy Tester
I simply placed the BAT-V1.5.mq4 file in ..\experts & the OrderReliable.mqh file from zip file in the ..\experts\include
Restarted MetaTrader & it works beautifully! I was even able to change the code so that the Fib lines were drawn in yellow so that I can see them on my preferred black background.

I'm still forward testing this EA on 4 pairs - too early for results

Cannot open file 'C:\Program Files\MetaTrader 4\experts\indicators\BAT ATR v1.ex4' on the GBPUSD,H1

I have checked that the file is not in the indicators folder and definately in the experts folder but still get the same error, I have other EA's running correctly, but for some reason this EA does not seem to work correctly.

Sorry, anyone out there that can help??

Help & Happy Pips

no, for me it's not working. Not in MT4 from Migfx and not for Interbank FX MT4. It shows colored in Experts but doesn't work in Strategy Tester.

Does anyone know more about this ?

Thanks

I as well run a forward demo test. Please do not mix that up with my real results. I tream of having gained 13 TUSD with that method as much as I dream of having 100 TUSD which I could put down to trade .

Anyway, the test is real and looks very nice. If you look exactly you find a little pollution arround the 1st of march where I lost some few hundred $ to a oscillation bug. Trust me that bug was fixed less then half an hour later.

Still nice the results, eh?
Hello fukinagashi & all !! Great work being done here, some very nice programming and top notch community effort. I want to help test this thing, I have it working but I need the best settings found so far.

I am using the external indicator (i.e useBAT_ATR = true) and testing on various pairs. Do you change anything from one pair to another? What settings did you use for the forward test, fukinagashi ? And did you need to recompile the original indicator with new hard coded values, or are you using it as is? I refer to this code here:
http://www.forexfactory.com/showpost...7&postcount=35

13000 in one month is not bad at all, but lets see if it can be improved eh ?

Again, nice job, well done, keep us posted on your live trades.

I can't seems to compile the latest EA. It keeps giving me error. I've already placed the "OrderReliable" unzip file to the expert/include folder. What are the other step?

Can anyone tell me what to put in the question mark (?) or rather how it suppose to look like before compiling the EA?

#include <OrderReliable_V?_?_?.mqh>

How in the world did you get 13000 in one month? No matter what I trade on the 1.5 free version? I can't get it up to 10 in profit.

I have a question about the EA. I was taken in to a trade by price touching the BAT line heading down. This touch did not take me in to a short, however it did close my long. It has opened positions on the retrace, but I am wondering why it didn't open my trade 1. here is a picture, you can see the 2 arrows where the retracements were opened, but there is no arrow at the BAT line. Is there something in the code that only opens past a certain amount of pips after the BAT line, maybe the spread? I am not a programmer btw, i failed that class so much props to those who do and those who coded this.
