Seems like IBFX mini has evened out... looks so pretty. The mini script is fine... Let me look into editing the normal one for you guys and uploading it.

EDITED:

ADDED fixed IBFX normal account script.

You are using the script for mini account but your platform in on std account. You have to edit the script and removed all the small "m" in the ccy symbols.

Yes you are doing it right. Since you just started today you have to let the currencies settle like dirt in the water, for you see it clearly. Have you all started last week, you could find that the currencies right now is still hard to determine where it is going although it is leaning towards LONG. We will have a good feel maybe tonight or tommorrow morning. Please do not attempt to trade 2 pairs or 4 pairs tandems because trend you see now are fleeting.

Hi,

Sorry for the newb question, but it might help others reading this thread, so...

How do we run a script?

Thanks,

VBro

PS - Shadow, I read the instructions the same way you do, you wait for a day or 2 till the sets sort themselves as described.

i looked at mine just now and it sorted itself already...all the buys bottom 7 and sell top 7...that was less than 10 mins lol

didnt get to save the screenshot in time...USDCAD already jumped up...

close MT4, copy the script and put in the folder ....experts/scripts
re-open MT4 and the script will be there in the navigator under scripts and just double click.

That is an ideal start for the chart that all the 7 pairs are being herded into one position very tempting to trade isnt it. Control yourself at this moment because the last week trend is still not set. Very very tempting right???Hold your horses let it really settle.

Hi Trader101 - it's good to see you on here again on another thread.

I've started your system, but your TradeHedge indicator opened multiple orders - at least ten for each pair - I've got over 100 orders running on my demo.

Did I do something wrong?

I make it a firm habit not to trade sundays... at least until london open so no worries there. I'm more excited as to having it working for me haha, trying to get everyone on the same page too!

Shadow,

I've got the script in my script folder in MT4 already - and nothing happens when I try to load it. Do charts need to be open for all the pairs in the hedge first?

Also, experts are enabled in the options menu.

Any ideas?

Goto the "experts" or "journal" tab at the bottom and take a picture or just tell us if you are getting any errors.

Got it running.

Remember to check the box 'enable live trading'. Thanks for the help.

Nice to see you Hansel..
Yes you did soemthing wrong but i dont know. This is a script and will only drag to a one chart and it will open 14 pairs for you different on an EA that you have to drag to all charts.

I had the problem where when i tried to excute as script it kept saying "this isnt a script" so i had to put it as an EA and it did exactly what hansel is saying because it loops the 'script' instead of just excuting it once. Hansel it is because you have the script as an EA... i had to modify the script that T101 added before i could get it to work as a script.

Edited: I'll add my script edit final result for non-ibfx users.

Here is the script for IBFX m Accounts. Please remove any other scripts posted to avoid confusion. If your using IBFX Std accoung (no "m") removed all the "m" in the symbols save as a new filename and then compile. If you are using other platform you can use this or the earlier version of 14 pairs both are good. just make sure your broker have all the pairs.
