Can anyone clean this up for me. This is the Thirds indicator with comments. It gives the height of the screen and distance between the lines of for each pair. Hanover did this for me put I would like a simpler program than this. Thanks.

Thanks for your answer, I am trying to get my EAs and MPTM to work together seamlessly but that is not happening right now. My live account which I am...
Bob,
Couldn't you manage the different level trades on a pair by selecting the manage by ticket number option for each chart you have open . Open a second chart with the manager controlling just the L2 trade. Third chart with manager could control just the L3 trade.

Sorry I am late guys but slept in late this morning. OK markets finally moved. down on some gbp trades but others looking good. Prices retrace today will end up with a decent week. I hope to put out my 1st part of version 3 and I think I will surprise some of you. Happy trading.

Not quite -
Think should be:

BreakEven=true
BreakEvenPips=50 (500 if you are on a 5 digit borker)
BreakEvenProfit=0
PartCloseEnabled=true
Close_Lots=0.01
Preserve_Lots=0.01
TrailingStop=true
TrailingStopPips=20 (200 if you are on a 5 digit borker)
TrailAfterBreakevenOnly=true

As usual no guarantees
Best of luck
I used the above settings but manager didn't do exactly what I wanted. It closed 1/2 my position when I reached +50(which is good) but didn't set a trailing stop of 20 on the remaining 1/2. It set a hard stop back at my original BE point. Can you tell me what I'd need to change to get a trailing stop set on the second half of the trade when it goes up 50 pips. Would I have to change the TrailAfterBreakevenOnly to false? thank you

Yes, think TrailAfterBreakevenOnly=false is correct - sorry my bad ...

For a rough month nailed almost 1600 pips. I will take that. I am going to revamp how I report my trades and also will start a new thread. You will be shocked but it will be a follow the trend system using Swingman's indicator. I think you will like it.

My new thread is a trend following thread: http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...=1#post3504437

So I will stay with the 3x3 cross here and use the MPTM to keep me out of trouble. We will see which one does better. So now I have three different threads. Trading a range, Counter trend trading and Trend trading. Let us see who the winner will be.

Here are the 4D and 5D versions of MPTM that have worked for me on IBFX. I will be using these on my live account starting Monday. They are the newest versions downloaded on 2-16. Let me know if you are having any problems with them. The settings are BreakEven EA break even after 20 pips. The jump EA breaks even at 20 and then moves the stop every 25 pips. So at 50 pips you secure a 25 pips profit at 75 pips you secure a 50 pip profit. I put NB in the titles to show these are the ones that go with my system, it is never meant to take any credit...

I'm a bit confused now, is this ea only managing trades opend by the 3x3 EA or is it also opening trades based on the 25% golden lines? If it's only a managing EA why not combine them the 3x3 EA to one EA? Is anyone using them both one on one chart and one on the other same pair TF chart?

If have had the mptm ea on a few charts for a week.... (no action at all) .

mptm does not open trades, it only manages the SL line. It brings the SL line ot break even after 20 pips and if you use the Jump MPTM it will move the SL line up every 25 pips. You only enter trades when you turn on the EA. The EA only enters when price crosses. If you use the 3x3 then a trade is entered at the cross. If you use the 100 or 200 series EAs the EA enters when price crosses the white or pink lines depending on which one you use. We tested version 3 here but when I finalized it I moved it on to a new thread because it bacame a trend following system. This thread will continue to be a countertrend system.

yuck that was an ugly day. Complained that forex market was not moving well it did today. Not liking my positions gbp. I will just bail out of all the trades if they keep sinking today. Hung onto the gbp/usd but bailed on the gbp/chf and gbp/jpy. Will take most of the month to recover if not all.

That is them, the number represent the reentry figure. The 150 will reenter every 150 and the 200 reenters every 200 pips.

Bob, i'm demoing these EA's aswell also on a gomarkets 5 digits demo account. But it's not opening any traders at all. No errors in the experts tab. I have tried version 2 and the latest version 3.1 all the ea's buy,sell, pink etc. Any suggestions?

Oh I have heard of this problem before. Make sure the TP and SL are off and the lots are on .10 or higher. I think I tried demoing on one of their demos and never got it to work. Go to my 60x90 thread I think some guys have figured out the answer there. Just post a question asking how they go the EA to work and someone will answer.

Man it seems like forever since I have had a big day. Good moves all over the board and we are out of those gbp trades, wiped out my DD and cleaned the board except for the aud/nzd pair. My stupid 2L trade there is killing me or I would have wiped that one out too and set up a reentrance. Breathing much easier after a really bad Monday and looks like now we can set up a winning month. Once again with some patience the system works. We survive another bad run. I will post my choices for Monday later. Also will change my EA entrances. Will post that later too. Wish I had done the nzd/jpy also. dang.
