PJ, I changed the popup alert to playsound (in the indicator), now my question:

Should the EA with the default settings take a trade when alarm is given?

I have it running since hours and had sound alarms but no trade triggered by the EA.

Like I said, I didn't change anything else than the lot size and TP.

I'm familar with the EA as most settings are also coded in the THV EA xux coded but maybe I'm making some stupid mistake.
Ok. So I have been running the EA on 2 brokers. Had a similar problem on one. On first page of manual it says 'Allow DL imports etc', check manual for exact instructions. What I also found out (through generous PMs from xux) is the EA requires a hedging broker to reverse trades. So no U.S. brokers (someone really should be fired for that FIFO thing)

Try Varengold or anything non-US based to see how it functions. It is not a hedging EA but to reverse it needs the ability to do so. Also change to exit on reverse trade under settings.

Am I making sense?

Theoretical yes but practical I have DLL set to allow always.

I'm with ODL but I'm also running the THV EA on the same platform, maybe they don't like each other, let's see what xux says.

Hi Cobra

Default settings have a 0 third digit of DSSBressert option. This means the EA waits for a fresh signal or colour change. Are there any error messages at the "Experts" or "Journal" tab?

Don't worry too much xux, maybe it's my platform but the THV EA is working flawless.

Now I don't have time but will try another platform tomorrow.

Thanks xux

Got it to work with a fresh MT4 xux.

PJ, this needs a filter because takes many fake signals which you wouldn't have taken in manual trading.

PriceChannel indicator can confirm price action and give earlier entry signal in lower timeframes.

Here I would start to filter:

No short trade in OS zone, no long trade in OB zone.

But: I wouldn't set a rule that the EA trades only outside of OB/OS zones as we would lose some good trades

A possible filter is Center of Gravity. Open longs/shorts if price is below/above blue line and only follow its direction and/or curve.

You don't need to attach any indicators on chart but FFCal and DSS Bressert indicators should be in the indicators folder. You can also try the installer of my signature which installs enerything automatically.

Hi
I have been running the EA on a demo account to se how it does. I have set the trade direction manually either long or short depending on what I see as what direction I think I should be trading. I have a question regarding the following setting.

DSSBressertLevel:

Long trades are opened only if DSS Bressert is below 100-DSSBressertLevel and short


trades only if DSS Bressert is above DSSBressertLevel. 0 disables this option.
1) Is this a three digit setting or what are its settings?
2) If enabled does it use the settings you have set in the Indicator settings for its trigger, such as 80, 20 levels.

I noticed I was getting trades but maybe too early, as I would then retrace and get stopped out. So I was thinking if the short trade would only be taken when the alert happens as it gets to or passes down through 80 or a long trade when alert gets to 20 or passes up through this may help.

Or maybe take the trade only on the second or third alert in the same direction would maybe work also.

Does the EA use the levels set in the indicator?

Thanks
Gene

This setting is not a three digit one, it is a number between 0 and 100. The EA does not use the levels or any other setting of the indicator attached to the chart, it only uses the levels and the settings of the EA inputs. If DSSBressertLevel is 30 long trades are opened below 70 and short trades above 30 regardless of the levels on the chart.

Hey all,

I was wondering does anyone have any back test results to share and the settings that they are using. It will not run on my account at teh moment. I think it has to do with my MT4 as other things seem unusual as well. I will have to do a fresh install.

Great work, thanks
