Great work Sasha and all - I have been trying to keep up....
to run it you have to have ea and indi loaded on chart first because all the scripts get magic #'s from global variables and to set up those variables you need ea and indi to be ran

Nice question, but unfortunately I have no answer for that...

Maybe a bug... (on the trader)

I will open another account and reload the charts and indicators and EA. The only thing I can think now is that I loaded the charts with the market running, not at the opening.
it's hard for me to say something because i never got this

Sure, don´t worry...

As I said I will reload it today and follow the orders...

I had other robots running before in this account, and maybe some mess with the history data!!

Anyway, very nice work!!

Sasha,

I've only just across this thread and I have saved the EA. I am having trouble saving the scripts and the indi from post 1 in this thread. Can you help?

Yes - I am there...

I am testing v3.5 on an IBFX demo acct and have had it running on the same GBPJPY chart for about 36 hours now. One set of orders have already opened and closed profitably in that time. I altered the magic numbers for orders 1,2, and 3 when I placed the EA on the chart. I have the EA running on 3 different pairs with different magic numbers on each.

Did I miss something?

T...

2 more winners by closing out 2 of the 3 trades manually for + 18 + 18. Letting the last one go to 28. Can't be greedy in this business.

Sasha,
I just opened a EU chart and put the indi on the chart. Immediately the pop up came up for EU and placed two prders for GBPUSD. And the Pound wasn't ready for it.
sandra, i know what you are talking about - if you have ea and indi loaded on chart and if you changed a time period or a pair, indicator calculates entry point first based on the tick data which is available for this chart (since last close of that chart) and only after downloads a new tick data, so if you have have a chart with entry signal on, closed that chart and later on return back to this, you will have pop up message come up first and after indicator adds a new tick data and recalculates it, but if you have chosen AUTOMATIC MODE, it will place a trade even if later, after a second, indicator will show something else. here is nothing we can do, just use carefully.

Buy and sell stops as I like to make sure the trade is going in the right direction and if not I can delete. Just my style of trading.

Cable did hit Target overnight, but EU still holding loss, as for some

unknowing reason ones Cable trade get triggered, it's automatically

triggers trades on EU, but when I check Indicator on EU no Entry

point was expected.. Still not sure how that happens

I'd only run in on Cable from now on, there is enough pips could be made

on 1 pair, why bother with other pairs?
