KG Extremes seems to prefer more exciting days than today, so I was wondering whether when Steve you have time, you could add a start and end hours option, so we could easily run through the European session only.

I have also noticed that H1 seems to be more accurate than M15 in my testing of this bot.

Cheers!

Hehe. The next person to mention this gets shot, OK?

It makes no difference. Believe me, I know. Until Max decides for good that these functions serve no useful purpose, they will continue to show up as warnings, not as errors.

Forget them guys, OK?

Si, gracia sr

Mind telling me what trades the robots took? Mine didn't take any.

Attached. Yours wasn't scuppered by the zero divide thingy, was it? This stops the robot running without giving any obvious signal that this has happened.

Hi,
I have been getting this alert for the past 30 minutes:

2010.02.15 17:48:42 Basket_508b USDCHF,M5: Alert: NO..CurrBask.CAD cl @0.0

Any ideas?

Best regards,
I have a problem sometimes closing few orders. Didn't saw why. This afternoon I had to close manually EurNzd trades manually because I get this message during 30 minutes and nothing close.

Will do. Looking at it now.

@Steve

Do you use Max's EA over VPS or directly from yours computer?

I don't know what conditions cause the trades to close, but I can tell you this: your code
Inserted Code
if(OrderType()==OP_BUY)  OrderClose(OrderTicket(),OrderLots(),bid,MarketInfo(symbol,MODE_SPREAD),col);
         if(OrderType()==OP_SELL) OrderClose(OrderTicket(),OrderLots(),ask,MarketInfo(symbol,MODE_SPREAD),col);
will fail to close the trade following a requote intervening between the robot deciding that a trade should close and the actual closure event.

Change the code to this:
Inserted Code
OrderClose(OrderTicket(),OrderLots(),OrderClosePrice(),MarketInfo(symbol,MODE_SPREAD),col);
You don't even need to specify whether the trade you are closing is a buy or a sell.

Cheers Max. Another knockout performance by yours and Scoobs' robots today.

Cheers Steve. Yes, exciting day again.
I don't know what's wrong, but TCF V2 didn't oppened any trade today, and 20EMA/200EMa is in big DD (open trades lurking from last Wednesday). KG extreme performs very well today.

Direct. Don't have a VPS yet; 'tis coming in the near future but I have not needed it so far.

TCF2 trades but rarely. Going for days without a trade will be normal. Use the sma200 filter and going for weeks without a trade is probably normal.

Try a lower time frame - I have mine running on a lot of 1M charts just to see if it will kick into life - account up 0.3% today.

Maxou,

Amazing robots, but is there anyway to stop the indi's from been initialized and deinitialized with every tick.

I loaded up the ''K'' version and within 30mins it had already created a 2mb log file with all the initialized/deinitialize messages.

Cheers, mate.

I think this one could be a winner, especially the H1 is looking nice.

I have both the 508b and 508k running on 2 accounts this afternoon and I feel the 508b performed better . I replace the 508k with the 508m and set UseGapBeetweenEMA to false, hope the difference is only here

'tis up in the zip in post 1 - look for the Trading Hours inputs. The defaults would allow trading all day.

I have not been able to check that the law of unintended consequences has not kicked in as a result of these changes. It should not, as the code is simple, but sing out if there turn out to be any bugs.
