Anyone agree that AU is setting up a Second Strength BUY signal?
I know that there is a lot of resistance @ approx 0.9630, but with a very strong uptrend since the early part of this year, may be worth going for it!(?)

Not sure if you're serious, but he's probably referring to the resistance that has been in place at around 0.9650 for the last 6-7 weeks.

AUD/JPY closed by the EA today with profit since AO changed to red. It actually closed out at the same price as the first order's take profit.

If that trendline holds, it'll end up a pretty powerful breakout.

MTA,

Thanks for your work on the EA. I have a couple of requests.

Right now it won't take no for an answer. I exercise discretion in
my trades due to price action or s+r. I don't go with every pair that fits
the system parameters. If I close a pair the EA has executed and then
switch the platform on and off (sometimes necessary) the EA will buy
the pair again. Costly.

There are also times I want to exit or TP or scale out contrary to the
system guidelines.

Right now it trades and manages every qualifying pair.
Can you set an option to trade only and an option to manage only?
And of course an option to do it all.

I trade this baby of yours on many pairs on different platforms.
If I want to tweak one of the inputs I have to physically make the
change on every pair on every platform. Cumbersome.

I there a fix for this? I'd like to be able to change the lot size
on one pair and have it change on all pairs on that platform.

I appreciate anything you might be able to do with these.

Thanks,

Jim

Agreed. Be interesting to see how it plays out

I was only screwing around there though.

I'm staying out all the same, as it looks like we'd only get approx 50 pips before we hit the top. We still got the other 3 pairs running so it's not all boring. I was hoping to wake up and see at least one in profit, but oh well. It's all a waiting game. My average profit over the last week was almost 1.5% per day, so I'm not complaining.

I agree and am currently looking for a possible indicator that the EA could look at for S/R values and determine if trade should still be made. I have expressed this earlier in the thread.

The EA looks for the right signal and if found makes the trade. That trade could happen at any time during the whole daily bar. Of course there is a value (10 by default) that prevents the EA from buying too high from the open or selling too low. Once a trade is made then it knows it's done it's job and keeps that in memory as long as it remains running. If you then close the trade manually and reopen the system then of course it's going to want to trade again. A suggestion would be to turn off live trading on the EA if you don't want it to trade that day but your kind of wanting to mix manual decisions with an automated system. An S/R indicator would help if it's reliable.

Keep in mind you can also tell the EA not to trade Second Strength trades in the settings.

Perhaps you should trade these manually. This EA is not closed to discussion for enhancements but it was originally written to follow the system rules at least for now. Sounds like you may make decisions on-the-fly based on what you "feel" at that time. These types of things can be very complicated for EA's since a "human" on-the-fly decision can be more complicated than some people realize and then it all needs to be "hard coded" into the EA.

Any pair you open a chart for and attach the EA to it.

Trade only is possible but not manage only. Well, it can be but I'm not interested in the work to manage only. When an EA doesn't place it's own trades it has no idea which trades it should/shouldn't manage. It may end up altering trades you didn't intend it to manage. Things can be done with comments (EA tracks down trades with specific comments) but it gets sloppy. When an EA is programmed correctly the programmer gives the orders a magic number value. That value is the looked for when looping through the trades along with the symbol and maybe even a specific comment for the order. When you place a manual order you can't give it a magic number.

If you want everything the exact same then you can get one chart set exactly how you want it and then save it as a template. You can then apply that template to any of your other charts. You will have to set the initial template for each MT4 install or copy the template file to the other locations.

So would I but the I can see potential problems with that as well, especially if your running various other EAs that you may not want changed as well. As far as I know there is no way to do this.

In the EA's settings there's one called TakeSSTrades which is true by default. Change it to false.
