Wow, speaking about obvious. At the moment when the system tried to send an order, it was not connected. If you scroll all the way up, you probably find a

"'xxxxx' login (4.0 ..."
"'xxxxx': connect failed [No connection]"
"'xxxxx': ping failed"

You can have alot of reasons for that. If that happens regularily and you otherwise have an ok connection to the internet, I would change the broker if I would be you.
Ta Mr F. I may do that.

Hi Shah - you saw it yesterday on Bag-it TV top right corner - thanks for dropping by. But just for you here V1.29. I understand the only difference between that and 1.3 is it has more detailed Debug Information. Is that correct Mr F?

Bag is surfing at the moment, relaxing. Left the office because of NFP in 90 minutes. It made that decision itself as you can see on Bag-it TV - I've opened the experts tab for anyone that wants to look. Currently disabled.

No, wrong. Guess again.
Wow. Whenever I come across this kind of response to a reasonable question based on insufficient or poorly communicated information, it's a VERY clear signal to exit.

I'm out of here!

In fairness, IMO, he was joking and I believe he answered the question later anyway. It's the sort of thing I might post on a chat board if I was busy at the time. But I'd make sure I'd answer the question later which I think he did.

And, of course, it's all free so I guess we just make our choices and do what we want. Mr F, you and me. For my money I appreciate the work that all EA developers do. And if the question was answered later - I'm really not sure - then, Sir, IMO, most would treat it as the joke it was intended as.

A 50 pip spike would of caused the earlier short loss to be a lot more if Miss Bag stayed alive during the NFP.

Now with an 80 pip retrace? Any idea Mr F? Would the stop have acted on the 50 pips spike north?

Hello everybody!

Yesterday morning has happen something wrong with BAG-IT V.1.2.
As you can see here http://agos.741.com looking at mine Interbank account BAG-IT has done many entry/exit operations, starting from 8.45, loosing a lot of money .

Someone know the reasons? Looking at graph seems that BAG-IT has been triggered many times due to the fact that MM cross themself continuously and also RSI value was near / crossing continuously level 50.

Has V.1.3 a filter or so on to avoid this problem? Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot for attention.

Fukinagashi said the problem was fixed on v1.3 Read post #s: 104, 111, 132, 148, and #158 to see the progression of v1.3b and the fix of the problem I think you are speaking of. Since we just started testing the new version it is hard to tell if other problems will surface but so far it has worked fine for me. Including the close of all positions before NFP.

the EA will allow up to 3540 individual entries/exits per hour
I was sure you were joking.
Obviously an EA which trades that often is not only useless but dangerous and will very likely get you banned from your broker. 3540 is the number of seconds (59 min.) timeout between two trades. But that I explained in post 132.

Cant change RSI, seems stuck on 21.
Odd, I am going to check on that.

Also, just for the sake of argument, and I know how you feel about stops
and all that fukinagashi.
I think a hard stop should be in there somewhere if nothing more than a
safety net. These are computers, and internet, and they both do strange
things. If I had a hard stop of even 100 on the broker side I would at
least know that if my PC crashed, internet went out, whatever, I wouldn't
loose my ass off. I ran servers for years in managed data centers with
redundant backup, and those even went down on occasion. And as far as stop
hunting, who cares with a 100 stop. If its that close, just pull the
trigger and end my misery. I wouldn't care if it was an int or not, just
something.
I agree with you, it will be implemented in the next mini release. It will
be established as a LastStandStopLoss.

You consider that as well necessary for the TakeProfit?

Thanks fukinagashi

As far as the TP, thats up to you. I don't know your close logic other than bags original, but it doesn't seem to follow that. I did some testing and had some strange things happen with entries going the wrong way. When I get home I will replicate them and post a pic, thats the only way to fully describe it.

I scanned Cable for the last year and had those along with a few more. It is obvious that you dont close on a cross. I have to agree that you would get whipped to death doing that, and have ran an EA directly to Bags rules to show. That has been a while though. Sh*t, I have to read Bags rules again. Does he close on RSI or MA cross? To many systems im messing with

Anyway, I didnt see where a 100 pip SL would have gotten out of big trades anywhere, but thats just visually, could be even lower, and im sure you know the answer already

I am just confused as to your rules for entry and exit, and trying to refine them a little. Im not downin this EA, cause it makes a shitload of profit. Its just everytime i think I have it figured out, it throws another curveball.
