Quoting wackenaDislikedAttached is Firebird-v3.0.
In an attempt to minimize bad effect of strong up or down market movements, I have coded a new Firebird to use iFXAnalyzer as an up and down strong trend indicator. The EA will not place trades during strong up or down trends indicated by chart message "Market Trending up" or "Market Trending Down". I added a Hedge function option to place reverse trade when PipStep trade is triggered. Hedge orders have ability to increase lot size. I cleaned up the EA and now there are no warnings when compiled in MetaEditor. Other added functions are described below.
- UseEquityProtection -if true, close all orders when negative Float is excessvie.
- FloatPercent –percent of balance for equity protection.
- UseMM-money management.
- Risk-pecent of account equity to risk per trade.
- MaxOpenOrders-sets maximum number of open trades at same time.
- MinMarginLevel-below minimum Margin Level percent % trading stops.
- CloseDays-number of days trade is open before auto closing.
- LossLevel-loss amount before auto closing after Closedays.
- UseHedge-if true, places reverse order with PipStep order.
- HedgeLotFactor-hedge order Lots will be increased by this factor.
- HedgeTakeProfit-
- HedgeStopLoss-
- AutoCal-if true, iRSI() calculation of TakeProfit, StopLoss and PipStep. (not hedge orders)
This Firebird, as well as most other versions, is very slow in backtest. I can assure the added EA functions work. In backtest with default settings, it performed well on eurusd. gbpusd backtest was a bit shakey, but still in profit. I have not tested other pairs. I hope it performs well in Demo and Live accounts. I found better profits when HedgeLotFactor is set between 2-4.

Quoting 1trader2DislikedTeamfri,
Well said. Now if we can get some creative programmers...Ignored
Quoting wackenaDislikedAs requested by Michaelw, I have coded a Trade Time scheduler into latest Firebird v3.0. It is a little bit of overkill. But, it will allow to schedule up to 4 "Trading Time" zones per day and a full week's schedule to be set at one time.
If UseTradeScheduler=true, then the following applies.
Each "Trading Time" zone 1 through 4 has a Start and an End for each day.
To trade all day , set "day"...Start1=0 and "day"...End4=24. This is needed for each trading day.
To skip a full day, set "day"...Start1=0 and "day"...End4=0.
Note: EA is coded to use your Local PC Time.
Here is a Monday example.
MonTradeHourStart1 = 0; - (Trading Time zone 1 start)
MonTradeHourEnd1 = 8; - (Trading Time zone 1 end)
MonTradeHourStart2 = 10;
MonTradeHourEnd2 = 16;
MonTradeHourStart3 = 18;
MonTradeHourEnd3 = 20;
MonTradeHourStart4 = 22;
MonTradeHourEnd4 = 24;
In above schedule, EA trades from 00:00 (midnight) to 08:00, then from 10:00 to 16:00, then from 18:00 to 20:00, then from 22:00 to 24:00.
Non-Trading Time is from 08:00 to 10:00, then from 16:00 to 18:00, then from 20:00 to 22:00.

Quoting BenQDislikedWackena,
What chart TF have you been running this on?Ignored
Quoting wackenaDislikedBenQ,
Developement was on M5. On previous versions of FB, there have had good comments on M30. It would be good if both M5 and M30 could be tested side-by-side for comparison. Another good test would be to demo on different Brokers at same time also.

Quoting BenQDislikedThx. I turned off MM, but kept the other defaults. The hedge is coming on too early. I have a .10 lot short on the eurusd at 1.3359, and a .30 lot long at 1.3363.Ignored
Quoting nvwineDislikedAt 23:05 GMT Firebird v3.1 sold 2 lot at 1.9824 and bought 6 lots at 1.9832 five seconds apart. These were GBPUSD trades on a 5min chart with MetaQuotes demo. Is this caused by the market just opening?Ignored

Quoting nvwineDislikedwackena,
Thanks for the reply. I am still getting my adjustments worked out.
Can I run the FB v3.1 EA on 5min, 15min and 30min charts on the same pair in the same account without having magic number problems?
Keep up the good work.Ignored
