OK, I figured out that the date had to be changed to get to the current day. Does this need to be changed every day now? Can it be made automatic?

"The Box" loads, but does not show up. I see the numbers in the left corner but no "Box" ,Tried changing colors, etc. "SDX Zone" - How do I read this? Any instructions listed anywhere? Thanks
For The Box you have to change the start and end dates manually every day, for instance for the coming night the start day is 20080109 and end day 20080110.

I wish somebody would improve the code so that the indicator could change the dates automatically.
Regards

You are after the NoOfResets setting. By default, this is 2 so the ea will re-enter after a sl.

I have set mine to NoOfResets=1, as I assume that NoOfResets=0 would stop the ea placing orders at all.

As a newbie to EA's, I understand how to edit the settings under "Inputs". However, the settings always revert to the original settings. Does anyone know how to edit the setting properly?

After you set your desired inputs, save it, and give a name. After that, if you want to load that saved setting, press load and choose your named settings.

Thanks so much. Once I save and load the revised input, will the EA automatically reflect the revised settings every day, or is there another step involved in making sure that happens?

Does anybody know how to adjust the entry points on the Nicotinabreakout EA? I pm'd Saaedb, but no response at the moment.

I am curious to know if anyone else is experiencing the same problem. My long and short all have entry points 7 pips away from the high and low points. I changed the 'Entrybuffer' to 1. It worked on the short, but not the long. The Long is still 7 points away.
Its taking the spread into account for the Long order.

ok, but if I do not want that included, is there a way to not include it on both the long, and short?

So long as you load that named setting.

I've been using this indicator and I like it a lot. Pretty easy to use. There are explanations for the different setting in the code. the only thing that may confuse you is the period A end: if you put in 2 it calculates up to 1:59, and doesn't use the 2:00 candle.

Hope that makes sense.

gerrigirl,

Thanks for the indicator. Can you post a screen shot of how you have it set up? Is the box supposed to cover the 5 or 8 hr active period or is the box supposed to cover the inactive period?

The GBP/JPY nearly 200 pips range for the last 8 hours and it looks a bit too wide to me for Nicotina's system.

I don't use saeed's EA yet but does it account for that range before it places a trade?

sold the top of range at 215.45, reason being ..1) GBPJPY is in down trend2) The range is wide, so break during asia is unlikely3) Trend based channel fades are often good tradesstop 50, tgt 100.

It covers the range from 18 -2 gmt that you need to get high and low. You just adjust the range to whatever hours you need. I use 8hours. My orders for today
buy 215.74
sell 213.81

Yes, it does. You have the option to change the maximum range setting to suit yourself.
