sky, one more, actually last question - this setup will work only with 3 orders or with 2 also (1 market and 1 limit)?
Yes, of course.. 1 limit also should do it..

First Market Order get's triggered right away, and

we have (For example)

LimitSpreadOrder1 = 20
LimitSpreadOrder2 =0 (means only 2 orders total )

You know, like in Original Geo EA.. (TakeProfit1/2/3 defined)

P.S

But IMHO why averaging down with only 1 order?

Better have 3-4 or even 5 positions and lower LOT SIZE instead...

Let's have 3 orders minimum for this setup... Why not? If this is too much for some traders,

one should lower the lot size instead, that's all.. The Idea is to get best averaged price.

The area of code I see as interesting to expand, is SL options.

ATR ? count back x Bars ? Support/Resistance Levels 1.5900 1.5950 1.600



One Question: How long after a Trade is complete will a new trade open ? is there a time delay ?

Hi Sasha.

I noticed that when the active trades are closed (manually or automatically) that the EA still thinks there is a trade open and does not trigger any more. I have had to reset the chart to get it working again.

See the attached as an example. In this case I manually closed all three trades but the EA still thinks Trade 2 is active and shows the ticket number.

I've noticed the same when the trades close automatically (hitting SL or TP).

Cheers.

Hi Sash,

When the original Tokyo EA entered a trade the comments field was populated with the name of the EA. see the attached image

It would be useful to have a similar comment in the trade on entry

Thanks

Jav
Thanks for putting that in Sash

The picture talks for itself!!!
What version did you use for these results? I noticed you took 2 trades on some pairs, 3 trades on others. How did you decide that?
Thanks

You're welcome.. And thanks to GEO and Sasha.. As far as

GEO triggering strategy based on Fractals will work, Buy limit

version should outperform original Geo EA

Sky,
You're doing a wonderful job in keeping this thing on track and it looks like it will be dynamite. Thank you. Sasha is a jewel and you are too, to be doing all this. You'll need to give instructions though to several who don't understand what you are doing when it comes to limit orders......
Not everyone understands limit orders.

Do you draw the fibs or do you have an indi?

It is all automatic.
Some pairs have hitted the primary target, so ther are just 2 orders left.
All trades are openned with 3 buys or sells, acording with the robot default.

Hi Sky,

I have read your posts but as I am a little bit new on forex (I just trade index), I have some difficult to follow some of your concepts.

eould you mind sharing with us how is your setup with the current version of the EA?
