Yes. it is. 1440 minutes in a day.
I hope to have a more sophisticated cross-spotting, trade-filter in place by market open after the weekend.
Thanks Steve...great work

V2 is attached.
Basket trading: there is a new input in the trade filters section - ReverseNotCancel. This tells the EA to place individual trades in the 'wrong' direction when they fail the filter test, instead of simply cancelling them.
Only time will tell if this is a successful strategy or not. Lousy program design made this horribly complicated to code, so please report anomalies, as these will represent a piece of incorrect coding.
Daily Cross trading: a lot of change here.

Daily Cross trading: a lot of change here.
- Placing the trades is now a 2 stage process:
- the EA spots a cross then
- waits until lower time frame relative strength indexes line up. Two of these are set by default to 4h and 1h tf's. The remaining two are set to zero but can be used to check even lower tf's still.
- Added the ability to set a manual stop loss.
- Added a manual take profit and an automated tp using ATRADX.
Please read the user guide for more details.
You can set up the EA on a lower chart to see how it works. Use a 15 min chart, with the lower tf filters set to 5 and 1. The trades will be useless, but will show the EA in speeded up action.
All this I coded yesterday without an opportunity to check it running, so please report bugs here as usual.

24 hours in a day – 24 bottles of beer in a case – Coincidence? I think not
KG,
Before I download, can you please tell me whether the indicators will work on IBFX mini accounts.Thanks
.When is market open? Cmon the clock, and may IBFX's spread fiddling software get a rather crappy virus, the gits!

Thanks for coming through with the multitimeframe daily crossing--can't wait to see how it works out--i have a lot of faith in it working--perhaps i might even try to see if i can scalp with it on smaller time frames--
Again--Great job

Steve,
You are developing 2 EA's right?
Reason I ask is the development of the flexible seems to have stopped in favour of the other one.

Hi all. I have the latest EA set up on one chart in the Range Trading mode. It was going to open 2 baskets of orders (I got an alert to that effect) but no orders opened. I checked the Experts tab and found a repeated error message along the lines of "unknown symbol name EURJPY" for ordersend function" It repeated this for all of the pairs involved.
I have KG RS Group v1.1 loaded. Any ideas why the EA isn't recognizing the pair names?
Thanks!
Sandy

The broker does not recognise this pair. Do you use IBFX? If so, you need 'm' as the pair suffix.
No this was on a demo account at FXDD. I checked and I also have rs_group_jpy v1.2, rs_group_use v1.2 etc in the indicators folder in case those were the problem. I also blanked out the "m" that you'd need at ibfx.
Is it a problem if you run 2 instances of the EA on separate charts...1 with the range method and 1 with the cross method? Maybe that's causing problems?
