Hi Oksana
Not sure if your still working on this EA as you had some negative comments

I never got it to work but think it could be very usefull in combination with an indicator I found on Robert Borowski Forex system (http://dc167.4shared.com/download/137147145/3e799b5e/003-Amazing_Forex_System.pdf?tsid=20091027-164429-eb019977)

What it need is to draw the trendlines (or use the indicator) 10 pips above and below the high/low of the previous 1m candle before Fundamental neews Announcements

Place sl and maybe trail it with a tight trailingstop

Hopefully this will make you take up the work on easy-EA again

take care
victor

Instead of trendlines, it is horizontal lines

Hi All.

Currently don't have much time for coding EASY EA. Once time permits I will be more than happy to modify it.

Thank you for understanding.

Would you consider posting the .mq4 for this EA? I would like to edit the default values for SL and TP, as they keep getting reset for some reason in my MT4.

Also, (not sure if you have acknowledged this yet) while the EA handles both a BUY and SELL order at the same time, it does not seem to be able to handle 2 orders of the same type. For example, if I make a Sell order, then another Sell order at a better price, the TP/SL lines will not close out both orders, only the first one. Once the first order closes out, new TP/SL lines will be generated for the second Sell order.

Is it possible to have the TP/SL lines close out both orders?

Edit: I am also looking to do some customizations, I may be able to help with some of these requests you don't have time for

Only just discovered Easy EA. Potentially the greatest thing since sliced bread.
Potentially!
I have been looking for some time to find some way to trade directly off the chart. The normal MT4 procedure of placing orders I find frustratingly slow.
The Easy EA's ability to move the Buy/Sell signals and SL and TP lines independently on the chart is exactly what I want. The however bit though is, I'm finding if I close a trade manually, all the trade lines and text messages stay on screen and have to be deleted manually. Is this normal?
I know this is a pretty old thread and you may not get to see it, and have also indicated in past posts you don't have the time to put any more work into this project, but, I for one, would like to see any updates that you may decide to do on this EA.
In my view, MT4 should be shipped with an EA like yours straight out of the box.
Hopefully,

I haven't tried it myself, i only play around with it for a while, basically to activate it, click on the little icon at the bottom left side of the chart and move the icon up


You can see the basic operation here

http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&langpair=ru|en&u=http://autograf.dp.ua/Pages/2/23/231.htm (http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&langpair=ru%7Cen&u=http://autograf.dp.ua/Pages/2/23/231.htm)


editing the orders also same, click on the icon needed editing and move it up a little bit,
To change the lots size click on the number below the label "Lots", number will appear above it with arrow at both end, to scroll for smaller lots size click on the arrow move it up, to select the desired lots, click on the number move it up, basically almost all command at the control panel accomplish by moving icon up.

Been using this EA for the last couple of days to enter all my trades. It's not perfect but never the less, pretty good. If you close trades manually it tends to leave a lot of rubbish behind in the way of horizontal lines and their text titles. Have to remove manually which is a bit of a pain. But still, small price to pay for quick controlled entries.

woof,
Does the EA place a hard Stop Loss on the server at the time of entry, or do you have to do that manually once the EA has opened a trade?

Hi Royston,
I don't think the TP's and SL's are sent to the server. That response is the EA's job. Turn your computer off, and you are naked with an open position.

That is a shame. It would be much better if it opened a hard stop (independently of either red or blue lines, which are themselves also Market Orders) at the same time as opening the trade. Doesn't feel good to place a trade without a stop at the exact same time.

You can set [Lot] [Risk Percentage %] [Slippage SI] [Stop Loss SL] Exit Target TP] [Destination] [Step] before placing the line on the chart and the orders opened will use that parameters

My ongoing experience with the Easy EA.

I like it well enough to enter all my trades using it. But, although you can drag the SL and TP lines to new positions, the new positions will be lost if you move to a new time frame. They only hold in the TF that you entered the trade.

As my main concern is the trade entry, I set the SL and TP lines far enough away to change once I've entered. A bet messy, but manageable. Unfortunately you can't turn off those inputs.

I will continue to use it until I can find something better. Or perhaps, Oksana17 might be induced to do a little update??? That would be great.

Hi mate,

I got the same feeling as yours. And it is really painful when you accidentally change your time frame without any warning, you lost everytihng in a minute.

Alternatively, I find another one with moveable SL & TP capacity. But the only draw back is that it is a HARD SL & TP (i.e. visable by broker). An additional set of invisable ST & TP is perfect.

Share the EA here to see anyone can modify it further to serve the community.

Cheers
City

Buildcity,

Just a quick one, before I try out the Luktom Visual Editor. You say the SL and TP settings are HARD settings. Once the entry has been activated can the HARD settings still be altered by using the drag lines?

Hi mate,

You are right, even it is hard setting, both sl & tp are moveable by mouse (just double click the line), and the broker's order will be amended accordingly.

Try it on Demo first, of course.

Hi there City,
Sounds interesting. I'll give it a burst.

Seems be differing opinions about what is best with SOFT and HARD SL and TP settings.

Does stop hunting by some brokers actually happen? I don't know. Better minds than mine seem to think so. I don't see what advantage it is to the broker to do so unless it is a churning procedure. To run the risk of pissing off good clients would seem counter productive.

SOFT positions on the other hand, means running the computer continually to maintain those positions. Computer goes down, sitting there naked!! Hmmmmmn! Personally not comfortable with that.

I'll give it a go.

Cheers,

Right,

Loaded up Luktom Visual Editor, but as I'm using a live account, I'm a bit reluctant to push the activate button. Polish EA with lots of inputs I don't understand. English translation a little short on details for my understanding.

Buildcity, I gather you are using this EA, so a couple of quick questions if I may, then I'll move on to a more appropriate thread. I don't wish to hijack what is actually an Easy EA thread.

Does it allow you to enter trades and select the lot size?

I don't want to suddenly find myself in a 1 lot open position that I didn't want.

Sorry guys, then I'll move on.

I am currently using the Easy EA and is does everything that I require. Except for those annoying little problems mentioned in a previous posting.

Bye,
woofx
