Hi Geoff
I will still use 5a because Im comfortable with it. The bugs Taiyakixz find in ver 6 are they in ver 5a?

No, the bugs were only in v6 in the mutiple order retry routine which was not used in v5a.

OK.... I can't program my way out of an empty paper bag...
I added that Comment line on V4 and V5... The Trade Comment line is not appearing in all 3 experts... Let's see if those comments show up on the charts....

In v6 there is a setting "trade_comment", double click on the default comment and you will find that you can edit it to suit yourself.
The same option has been added for the magic number to be changed!

Hey Geoffb65,
I am not a coder but I suggested the retry fixed. There is a slight "typo" in V6
///////////////////
if(buyorder==0 && Time0 != Time[0] && Hide_Targets==false)
{
retries =10;
while(retries > 0)
{
RefreshRates();
OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_SELL,dLots,Bid,5,Bid+StopLoss*Poin,Bid-TakeProfit1*Poin,trade_comment,iMagicNumber,0,Red);
if(GetLastError() != 0)
{
Print("Sell OrderSend 1 failed with error #", GetLastError());
Sleep(1000);
Should be "sellorder==0". Please check on this.
Cheers,
inkuumba

Geoff,
Will you trade this week with UK election and Japan being on holiday? I think you already answered Japan. I just thought of the election.
I think I will have to because I need every opportunity to prove whether the strategy works and this week will be a good test!
I can't advise anyone else to do the same of course, it has to be the individuals own choice, either way it should be an interesting time!

What I can understand its no difference betwen 5a and 6 trading system.
I think its fun to trade live with a mini cent account...its live but you cant loose a lot of money.
Elovv
You and Sandra are two good mates and I don't want you to take risks!
But I suppose, a few cents won't hurt too much!

You are correct, I missed that one as well!lol!
I think I tried to do too much last week...
I will attach the new files here and modify the previous posts as well!

Ok, here is my little participation to the Geoff's The Great great project 
Here is a function, written as a separate ea, which automatically converts time zone from GMT to a local broker's time.
It calculates the value by 2 different ways:
1) based on the offset (difference from a local broker's time zone to GMT) and
2) based on the database, which Geoff posted at the very first page
which is still not completed, so everyone is welcomed to add a new broker's name and offset time, if you see your broker's name is missing.
Goeff, hope this would work,
thanks again for your great work!

Geoff et. al.,
yesterday I did some optimization of Geoff (the great)'s...
I particularly like the SL 65 that is very good!
I think I will check it out tomorrow when spreads are back to normal and the market should be very quiet with the UK bank holiday!
Testing is, of course, ongoing and it is a great relief to find other people helping out with this, your results are extremely good and are definitely a step in the right direction.
I have been looking at the possibility of using RSI instead of SMA for the trend, RSI can give an earlier warning of a trend reversal and so far it looks promising, I will keep everyone informed of progress! :nerd:

What a joy it is to see some "proper" coding, it makes my efforts look like kindergarden doodles, I hope you don't mind but I will be learning as much as I can from your far more advanced methods.
Many, many thanks!
