I found a bug in the EA. It was trading even during the lockout.

{quote} As per your screen shot...I thought that was to allow several different trades at one time or say a buy and sell at the same time. I like the partial close as it pockets profits faster (which is why I have refined this method so much...to get in and out faster and more options for entries too) and if it hits SL it's not such a hit. At this time I am not using any other action at the midline. If there is such a blatant attack from your broker I was wondering if using two or three brokers and revolve your trading within the brokers so they...
Actually, you just said something that’s exactly right: besides allowing both buying and selling, it allows multiple, meaning both functions with that flag there. As for the brokers haha, there’s no way around it, I use Hantec and XM, it’s all the same, or maybe one is worse than the other, haha. Let’s just say it’s a necessary evil, we can’t get around them.

My results from 3 days, from 02/23 to 02/25, remembering that these are 2 real Cent accounts, $8 each:

Today it made 11.2%

Points that I thought could be improved: the Take (allowing the trade to run longer), because with quick exits it tends in the future to balance out at 0x0, as mentioned by another member.

In version 3, test the partial and BE closures working perfectly, I believe it was tried with higher lots in this version.
I haven't done much negotiating in NY, maybe the results would be better, or not lol.

Greetings, I have finally finished the new EA (SORRY for the big delays), it encapsulates both the Single Band Mode and the described Multi Band Mode (as well as global midline features). It also includes the ATR Zone Lockout (post 317), and True Risk Based Lot Sizing. I believe it correctly encompasses all of the described logic. I did not get enough time to test the EA, so I encourage everyone to test it thoroughly (in a demo account) and let me know if you find anything that does not look correct. Please read the PDF with/for the new inputs....
Hi Realblank

Could you look at this pic and let me know if the partial closes at midline are marking them as a loss instead of a gain.

Also the last trade at the midline is reported as a sell and the close in the upper band looks like it has started a Band lockout...which seems odd. Any clarification on this by you or someone please.

Thanks, Chris

The differences to my settings are ...

--Under MM tab I chose fixed position size

--I do not use the consecutive loss feature (False)

--Under ATR zone lockout I do limit the blocked trades to 3

I think those are the only differences to mine...not that that is good or bad.

Hey Chris,

It appears that the lockout was not started/initiated by that last trade that you mention, instead that lockout has been active since "14:41" as can be seen in the expert's tab and visually in the chart. However, it's quite weird that the zone shading is not going all the way back to 14:41.

Also, that loss that you point out as being from the partial close is not actually that specific partial close but rather the order/position before that, I think in MT5 (not sure about MT4) the P/L amount includes the total profit incurred from the original entry, this means that in actuality the partial close profit is inside/included in that last $100.29 (not the -44.50, which is actually the last position's loss as seen in the chart and closing time).

Does that answer your questions?

HAHA!
Yes thanks.

I was getting more and more confused because I was looking at the ticket numbers and they were not matching what I was seeing...LOL

I will go back to look at that screen shot on the actual chart and try to confirm what you say...

Thanks again, Chris

Just a thought -- I see so many people in different threads just posting a back test from 2010 to Present, then stating that it doesn't work.

You are just presenting data and...The goal is to turn data into information, and information into insight.


I have some interesting tweaks that i think will make it work better, I'm tweaking the code and will revert with an update.

Question...with the new EA, if I was using the Single Band method. am I able to implement lockouts within the single bands instead of just outside the bands and can I implement midline partial close.

I guess what I am asking is are the new features we added for Multi Band method applicable to the Single Band method.

Today's result of the new EA. The day started well, in the morning it was $1000 more, by the evening it barely had a little left.

I think starting monday I am going to stop the partial close on midline as pretty much all of them end in profit anyway.
