Hi Mart,

one question about the display in the pips column.

Why do the values differ to the MT4 display? For values < 10 pips there are almost equal. But above 10 pips the difference in display between the panel and MT4 is from about 3 to 10 pips.

Any explanation for that?

Afaik, there is no commission / swap on the orders. (Alpari UK)

Thanks and greetings,
Oliver

Hi Mart

The problem with doing something that good is we start asking for other bells and whistles

So I have a suggestion for a future version. How about adding an alarm function? For example when P and RWB are green an alarm or popup is triggered.

Just a suggestion for when you are bored and have nothing to do

I believe I found the bug...it is related to the fact that my MT4 currency is EURO. The pips in the column of the panel are calculated from the base currency used in MT4 (in my case EURO) and NOT from the order currencies. Therefore the pips displayed for the USD pairs (e.g. USDCHF) in the panel are less than in MT4.

As I understand, the pips in the pips column in the panel are simply the division $ / lot size (if no swap/commission). But this should only be valid for the USD pairs if you trade with USD in MT4. In my case the $ column shows profit/loss...

Here is how I calc the pips value in the manager EA for all order:

pips = (OrderProfit + OrderCommision + OrderSwap) / OrderLots * 10

The value in the panel is the sum of this pips value for all opened order.

Then if in your MT4 you see profit in EURO for all pairs, then the pips value should reflect that based on your currency.

Sorry if I misunderstand your problem...

Here is all the Moving Average use by EAs:

MA = period 1, mashift of 0, Mode Linear weighted, Price Median, shift 0
MA1= period 1, mashift of 0, Mode Linear weighted , Price Median, shift 1
MA30 = period 3, mashift of 1, Mode Linear weighted , Price Median, shift 0
MA31 = period 3, mashift of 1, Mode Linear weighted , Price Median, shift 1
MA4 = period 4, mashift of 0, Mode Linear weighted , Price Median, shift 0

EA3 use MA4 and MA
EA4 use MA30 and MA
EA5 use MA30, MA31 and MA
EA7 use MA
EAS use MA and MA30

If you want to see the conditions...

HI

I use 4 different MT4 accounts for this system. Just wanted to know if I can use the dashboard for one mt4 platform only, or can I just change directories and switch between accounts. IMHO it should be OK just wanted to ask if this would mess up anything or not.

Kind Regards

Yes, ok. But I think this is exactly the problem, you calculate the pips from my currency which should not be done here. You should use the term currency as MT4 always does...

To give an example:

I sell the EURUSD with 0.01 lots (10 USD cents) and the price goes from 1.27000 to 1.27100, I have a loss of exactly 10 pips.

Now MT4 shows me the following values in the column "profit":
-10 pips (as points) OR
- 1.00 $ (as term currency) OR
- 0.78 EUR (as deposit currency)

So in the $ column of your panel it would show correctly the 0.78 EUR,...

Ok, now it's clear.

I'll change the code in the Manager EA that calculate the pips.
I'll send it to you first (privately) I'll wait your feedback before releasing it. You'll let me know

Talk to you later.

Cheers,

Same problem here... I have a EUR account and the manager with settings tab.
I think it's calculating wrong pips while managing trades because of the same problem.

P.S. LOL... post #700 in 3 years... lazy writer!

Hi,

You won't mess up. The panel takes the chart data in the experts directory of the path you choose.

If you use 4 different MT4 terminal, you can start 4 dashboards and select the corresponding directory of each of your mt4 terminal in each dashboard.
