Hi,

Thanks, It works now..

Will keep trying it..

Can i add more suggestions into this EA?

1. Auto-trail x pips when x pips in profit

2. Auto-break with x pip extra (to cover spread or lock in profits) even when x pips in profits.

3. Multiple lots exits at certain prices per lot
EG: First Target, exit at x lot with x pip profits and x stops,
Second Target, exit x lot with x pip profits and x stops,
Third Target, exit x lot with x pips profits and x stops.


4. Reverse the trade when hit stop lost or profit target.

5. Each time when we draw a horizontal line at chart for buystop/buylimit/buy to cover short, add options for plus with spreads, yes or no. if yes, when we draw buystop at price 100.00 at the chart, it will buy at bid price - 100.02 (2 pips spread) - this is an important features for most chart trader. Thats when this options is selected as yes, it will always buy at bid prices when you draw at chart (ask price).


ps - x = numbers, 1,2,3,4 and so on.

Thanks
All this would be so nice i agree....

My idea for you when you updated the EA.

PUt a version name for example, easy_v1.1 and so on..

It is easier for you to keep and for us as well.
It's glad to saw a new function. But i might stick to the old one since i prefer the old one. Haha
But i will test the new feature by the new one as well

Okay,
Test on! And tell me of any problems
I prefer not to do the v1.1 thing, because it takes time for me, as I have to copy and paste my code to a new EA, and save the new EA, and then delete the old EA, it just isn't for me. I prefer just having the updated one always the same name. But, if a lot of people really want the versions, then I can do that.

Actually we have this already, it is "managetpv", search it in FF forum. It juz over here. The managetpv is juz suit your require in (2,3).
For others requirement in 1,4,5 , It should be placed in seperate EA as i cant find any reason to combine it with the current Ea. This EA is working as i see, simple and easy is the main purpose of the Ea. (I guess) Haha

I guess shouldn't be any problem if you decided not to change the name of your EA, provided the latest version is always updated at the first post, so that most of us/newbie wont get confuse.

Cheers man!!

Some things never change
If you only spent as much time in coding instead of trying to steal others stuff, you could actually learn some coding. But this way, it is funnier and funnier every time you claim you made something

1. I placed horizontal lines and named them buy stop and sell stop. When the lines were hit the trade was not tiggered?

2. The EA closed out an existing trade I had open which was a bummer, but okay

Did i miss something regarding what to name the lines for placing orders?

thanks in advance

Since 2 and 3 already available, the coder might not find it tough to add these codes into this EA, with the permission of the original coder of course.

Its just a suggestions. Because i find its wasting of time to keep changing the EA to a single chart, it would better its all in 1, just trade managements.

It might not be simple and easy, but if the coders knows how makes it simple, like just using false or true options, then things would be easy and simple, its all depends to the coder and us.

I guess the image can help out your question? I believe one pic more than 1000 words.
The name is available in first post.

Post up the charts whereby it indicates your question 2. Might be a bug?? Or might not.

Edit:
Here's my some question to raise up my hand.
Example :
I opened up m30 and h4 chart. I place my trade in h4 chart and i put the EA on m30 chart. Will it still work out???
Juz lazy to try it out myself... So, it's easier to ask...
Juz ignore me if you found this is stupid

Hi,

You should name them 'bs' for buystop and 'ss' sell stop.

Hope this helps.

thanks...i got it to work. looks real nice. I like that it keeps the orders off the grid.

What happens for a s/l setting if price is moving very fast, will it keep trying to execute the order every pip movement until closed?

Also, a break even feature and a trailing stop feature might also be nice to have as well as the ability to turn off the take profit feature and use the t/s only.

Otherwise this is absolutely phenominal as I trade M5 charts and i can space out and miss my entrance, but now i can set it and forget it..

thanks again....Damon

Hi,

Nice job.

I wonder if you can generalize it to function with any trendline I draw (not limited to horizontal lines.) This way, I can trade trending (up/down) channels.

Thanks!

P.S. - I have many very profitable strategies that need coding up. Would you be interested in the programming work?

Wow, this is the really good idea. Whereby when we a trading inside a upward channel. If the trendline can be used for entry. Nice one..

I will work on the trailingstop and breakeven thing later on in the day.
It will try to close out the sl at every pip movement. If you have any suggestions on how to make it so that it won't do that, then tell us I don't think that's possible, because there is slippage.

I've never thought of how to program something that trades the breakout of a trendline. I'll see what I can do
