V 1a attached.
I have sorted out the OldBars thingy, I think. The EA should now take over smoothly from where it left off in the event of a disconnect.
Added some code to show which pairs have crossed and the EA will trade at the new candle.
Added some code to stop the EA continually trying to send a trade for a pair that does not exist.
I still haven't updated the user guide, so go with the defaults if you do not understand the inputs.
Some response to my original request for feedback about my cross-has-occurred logic wouldn't go amiss. Frankly, the chances of me having this perfect are zero.

The attached contains nothing new in terms of the EA.
For the benefit of new readers, it does contain all the indis, set files etc that earlier versions of the EA required.
It also contains the updated user guide for the EA. The latest incarnation of my EA builds on what has happened so far, so I suspect that if you need the user guide you cannot use the EA. In this case, do some serious reading here then set up some demos, try to make sense of the settings and sit back and watch what happens.

Would you like to give a bit more info? Who is your broker? How long have you had the EA running? Post your set file then we can have a look and see if there is a problem there?

Thanks to your KG daily crossing EA--(for T101 basket traders-)i think i have finally found the solution to the question-
when do i exactly buy or sell the baskets(14 pairs)-this question hunts alot of traders(Timing)
-i was playing around with your KG crossings on the one hr chart-when i got the alert to sell 12 currencies when all of a sudden-just after putting in my sells) a sell surge occurred on my T101 external IA monitor--luckily, i was quick enough to pull my sell-all script----210 pips--i thought maybe it was a fluke so i waited to see if i can get another signal---Well---it happened again for another 86 pips run-
1-A dashboard indicator that lights up when 1 hr crossings occur on timeframes.
2-T101 external IA monitor
Sit and wait for the for the dashboard to light up
watch arrows seperate on the IA monitor
Pull the trigger---get your pips,then close-- am thinking major pips here--
what do you think?

thnx for takin the time to answer. i'm using alpari , the EA has been running for 5 days with no trades. everything is set up perfectly , theres a smiley face , after the first day of no trades i decided to monitor the ea and to watch when the price would cross the 25 or 75 level as i set it to see if it would trade. it did cross but the ea didnt place any trades. ull find attached my set file i named eddie cause its based on eddies old settings.
regards ness.
Your prob is this setting:
MaximumSpread=15
You will find an explanation of this in the user guide if you care to read it properly.

Thanks for offering this. Which alert to sell which 12 currencies? Do I have to go to T101's threads to find out?
Yep, found the prob straight away. Eddie, I and a lot of others here know where to look straight away.

If the broker's spread exceeds this, the EA will not place the individual
trade. meaning per pair this is the maximum spread i want and there is plenty of pairs who could be traded, at least enough to make a basket. why would the ea not trade at all if its set to 15 pips?once again thnx a lot for you're help it is very much appreciated

as i understand it the way you explain it in the user guide is that maximumspread=15 means

Every line of code I write costs me three times as much time to describe in the ug.
I will give you one further clue. After that, you are on your own.
Alpari are a 5 digit broker. Frankly, you ought to know this.
