thanks matrix
you are right

mq4 is the raw program that i write
then its compiled to ex4
metatrader only understands ex4

so mq4 is the source code and ex4 is the usable results

all you need is the ex4 to run this program

the tab can be grey for 2 reasons
#1 is because you cant edit it
#2 is theres a problem

yours is #1

Did the EA enter a short for you? I think I have everything set up right and I think it should have entered me in a trade but it didnt.

My EA on the left hand side under the Navigator tab is grey so that might be the problem but I dont know how to fix it.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Wes

Ok, I'm running Psar v3.1 today. We'll see how it goes. Just three questions.
1) MaxLots=50.0, does that mean Maximum total ORDERS per currency or Maximum size of ONE order can be 50lots?

2) SL=2000, does your EA open and closes trades based on what PSAR is doing so TP and SL don't really need to be used? can I just put SL and TP = 0?

3) Do you use a custom PSAR indicator so I can see what is going on?

Also, I notice that as soon as I loaded the EA onto a chart it opened an order right away, does that just mean conditions were met when I loaded the EA exactly at that time?

Thanks

EDIT: Ok see chart red circles. TF=15 ?? does that mean I should run this on 15M TF? PSAR = 0.00030 does that mean trades are opened if values are between 0.00041 - 0.2? Just not sure how to read the PSAR ind correctly?

Hallo Trendchaser!

I'll be looking into the lot during the weekend and will post my findings! Nice work here! Look at the Supernova thread to find the offer of Rick to help you with the implementation of the managetp-functions!

Hope you are fine! You're pretty cool on beer!
Ciao

hey matrix
you got it right on almost everything
by default i use the ea as a stop and reverse
so it will open a trade immediatly
the 50 lots is what your brokers limit is per trade
2000 is like turning it off, 0 will not work
tf is what tf you should have the ea on, its optimised for that tf
if you look at psar proprties it has 2 settings
the settings being used are in the comments
no custom indicator just regular psar

Hi trendchaser,

Thanks for sharing your EAs.

Regarding to PSAR EA, should I use the v.3 on this thread, or the v3.1 on another thread?

Besides, do you reccomend us to run 24 hours with normal entry (stop and reverse) and default setting?

Please kindly advise. Thanks in advance.

One last thing. As you see by the attached pic, as soon as I loaded the Profile the EA opened and closes trades right away ?? Should you make the EA WAIT until next signals to start placing trades, please?

Thanks

here you go matrix
all you have to do is set single entry=true and normal=false

normal is more accurate so later after you have trade set it back to single=false and normal=true

Sorry, not understanding, do you mean set single entry=true and normal=false first when I load it on a chart;
then after 30min or so set single=false and normal=true
or
after first trade opens for each pair set single=false and normal=true

Thanks

yes normal entry is the mode you want for pure stop and reverse

but since your starting in the middle of the trade
using single entry will prevent opening trade until you get a new signal
once you get a new signal and have trade open switch to normal

the ea already had this feature
but when i optimized the ea i only set auto with normal entry
so i needed to input the settings with single entry
thats why i uploaded new version
in 3.1 switching to single entry will change all settings according to old optimization

Got it Just wondering if your planning on adding a Trailing Stop feature? I already have this great Trailing Stop EA so not really important to add it in your EA for me but other might, if you want the code/TS EA then I can post it. It works awesome.
