Steve any success with this?
None at all. The FXOpen demo does not have that blasted IBFX 'm' pair suffix, so the software on the IBFX account cannot recognise the symbol it receives from the FXOpen file transfer software.

I have not figured out how to work around this.

Steve, are the EA's IBFX (or something like that) only?
I don't know what time it is at your place, but right here it's 4:20.

Hmmm, would it be an idea to open a different demo, without the m, and just try between demo's first, just to establish that the principle works?

Also, I have two accounts, both opened Strong GBP basket, of 4 trades.

There is one difference, one sold eurgbp, the other bought eurgbp.

Anyone else?

Don't need to - I have used the software in the past.

Steve what do you think I did wrong. Using Range and Daily Cross on different demo's - no trades open.
Using Forex.com
using mostly defaults to get use to the EA's.

I'm using FX prefix, I think that is right.

Hey Steve

Can we add this feature in the range trading EA :

1. Once a currency, say GBP, crosses over to 80.


2. We send a message to the experts tab or an alert "GBP has crossed to 80."

Similarly, for every other currency and at 80 and 20 levels, both.

Steve. I am wondering if you could make a change in the Daily Cross. My broker has fairly high minimum stop loss (30 pips on AudNzd). I would like to set a more reasonable stop loss on most other pairs but that just creates errors on all trades on AudNzd if it is less than 30.

If you could change the code such that it checks to see if the requested TP or SL meets the broker minimum and if not, change it to that minimum. I grabbed some code as an example:

int BrokerStopLevel = MarketInfo(Symbol(), MODE_STOPLEVEL);

Current_Hour = Hour();
if (TakeProfit < BrokerStopLevel) TakeProfit = BrokerStopLevel;

if (StopLoss < BrokerStopLevel) StopLoss = BrokerStopLevel;

That would really help. Thanks Steve.

The more I use the range EA, the more I get confused.

It opened a strong USD basket.

It bought :

EUR/USD. GBP/USD, AUD/USD

It sold:

USD/JPY, USD/CHF, USD/CAD

ISnt that just opposite of what we need ?

Then, it opened a strong JPY basket.

It sold JPY crosses for each currency but bought GBP/JPY and CHF/JPY.

Can someone please explain why?

I take it from this that you have AutoDcCalcStopLoss set to false?

People are posting queries here that prove they have not even properly read the first post in this thread.

Right at the start, I posted this:

I say these things to new readers:

  1. Do not try to use the EA's posted here until you have learned the underlying systems from KG's thread, and have traded them manually. These are not 'EA for dummies' robots. Follow these steps:

    1. Read sundog's summary of the trading methods attached as 'KG Relative Strength trading methods - a brief summary.pdf'. This will give you a sketchy understanding of what is going on when you start to read the thread.
    2. Follow the link above to KG's original thread and read it. Take your time; development of this EA continues and will do so for some time. It is not going away. When reading the thread, pay particular to pictures of charts; these are particularly useful. You will quickly learn who makes the most useful contributions and be able to filter out the 'noise' that inevitably litters such threads.
    3. As you come to understand each method, trade it manually as well as setting up the relevant EA. You will come to understand how the EA's work so much more easily than if you try to use them straight away.

  2. Do not ask me questions the answers to which are to be found either in KG's thread or the EA user guides. I shall ignore them.

Newcomers, you are most welcome here. However welcome you are, you still have to do the basic work. Until your posts prove that you have done this, I shall continue to ignore your posts. Please believe me when I say that the quality of them do make clear your understanding of the underlying strategies and the development of the robots that trade them.

If you do not understand the strategies these robots trade then you cannot use them safely. They will wipe your accounts clean.

If you understand so little that you cannot even make the robots work for you, then I am glad they are not working. They are not killing your account either.

Steve I hear what you are saying. I have read this thread / forum twice this week end. I set everything up the way I understood and it is not taking any trades. Attached is my set file. Can you look at it?

I have this EA on only one chart / pair.
do I need to have all the other charts open? maybe?
if not, what else could it be?

Is your broker a 4 or 5 digit quoter?
