3. I want to jump the stop by 20 pips for every 20 pips from that point. So, at +60, I'd like to go to +50, at +80 to +70 and so on...can I do that in MPTM? Here is what I think I need to do: JumpingStop to true, Jumpingstoppips to 20, and jump after BE only to true? Is this correct?
I think this will work. Not certain though.

4. The EA has True to white line closure...I presume this means that when price hits the mid line on BB it closes trade? If this is the case, I'll set to false.

5. The recovery system...does it use ATR for the range for re-entry, or does it use 200 pips? Or does it use the volatility per groups to set the reentry level. And does the trade just close if it surpasses the 3 levels in recovery. Here is how I would see it trading for dimes is it goes against you with no successful recovery:
Answered in the user guide.

6. Could recovery have a pip value for TP. Suppose you have a trade that goes against you and it hits L3, then it starts to reverse off major support. And you know it;s going to now work in your favor. Could you, at that time, set the BE pips to X...so that instead of a BE trade you have a plus trade?
Yes

Quote
7. Might the comments on the screen also say, BE at X price and have it draw the breakeven line on the chart. Even more cool...once that BE line is drawn, have the ability to move it with your mouse and have the corresponding TP updated for all open trades?
I love this idea and will implement it.

Quote
This seems to add complexity as TP movement handled by MPTM and that's not pair specific. Seems like the only way to handle this is to manually manage the trade by excluding the pair from MPTM at that time. Or maybe MPTM ignores if more that one trade...I think you mentioned that somewhere...and put the BE+X pip in the pair specific NB EA?
Answered this indirectly in one of my recent posts, so you already know.

8. If I have a NB trade open and another trade is opened, and I want to manually manage the other trade, I guess I'd have to use the trade specific pairs option and temporarily exclude that pair?
Yes

Quote
9. One final question, the NB EA will not update TP for other open trades, will it?
No. Not any more. I hope.

Quote
10. Does the divergence indicator have any significance...or can I take it off my chart.
No. Yes. It is a bloody nuisance.

... and as we are with the requests:
any chance to add the swap to the BE calculation in MPTM?
Just closed 2 AUD trades at BE... and paid the swap... don't want that!
Probably. Keep reminding me.

Latest update in post 1.

From the user guide:

Using NB to manage manual trades in Recovery
There is an input that tells NB not to send L1 trades, but to manage Recovery of manual trades – UseEaToManageRecoveryOnly. Set this to 'true' to use this feature.


Whether using NB as an auto-trader or as a manual Recovery manager, when in Recovery the bot places a horizontal line (default colour yellow) on the screen at the price it has calculated as break even. Selecting and moving the line will automatically update the take profit of the Recovery trades. If you accidentally delete the line, NB replaces it.


Cool, or what?



To experiment with this, open a couple of same-pair trades that are clearly going to go bad, then drag NB onto the chart. It will instantly go into recovery mode and start doing its thing.

STEVE,

On your last mod, ObjectFind(breakevenlinename) > -1 appears in
start() >> if (RecoveryInProgress && !TpMoved) >> if (sell_price > 0) , but not on the if (buy_price > 0) part, it seems to be a miss or a misplace should be rather just before the }//if (RecoveryInProgress)?

Cheers Max.

Fix in post 1 guys. Coders, merely moving the code to where I intended it to go doesn't work properly; it needs to go inside an if (ObjectFind(breakevenlinename) == -1) conditional, otherwise it re-draws at every tick and so does not remain selected.

Hey guys, just wondering how the EA's have been this week with double orders placed? I haven't had any yet since the extra order open check I added.
24 hours in a day – 24 bottles of beer in a case – Coincidence? I think not

What does that means !!! ??????
I was surprised that my buy euraud didn't entered in recovery, I didn't found the recovery line...until I squeeze the vertical scale and found my recovery line at 0.84058
Normaly with a enter price =1.40093 and a rentrylinePips= 145, the line should be at 1.38643
And why the arrow are also at such low level ???
I have the same problem with EurNzd, EurCad

If I might ask....what are you doing to get your EA to take that many trades. My results are good....but far far fewer trades.

I do not do anything special.
Use the version of MAX No.25 on 24 cross.
The demo is 10,000.00 and the lot from 0.1
The other settings are defolt.
Then do all the EA.
The demo is playing Sunday night hours 23 hours Italian, with version No. 22. From two days working with version No. 25 (attached)

I did the "good boy".
I tried to change the cross as you had suggested.
I think I succeeded.
I included in alphabetical order but I left your numbers MaxADr.
Compilation no errors.
Check if it goes well.
Then if you want, you can put in the EA.

I've been noticing that the bot sometimes will say like classical bullish/bearish divergence when in fact it is a bulge that is opposite of what it says. For example I just got on the audjpy for bullish divergence but from my experience this looks more like a potential bear. I would imagine this applies to both maxou and steve's bots. Anyone know why or how we can make it more accurate to spot bulges? The EA doesn't actually palce the trade sometimes but sometimes it does.

steve,

The rentryline feature seems not working properly.
when I delete a rentryline on the graph, the Ea do not recreate one
I think the AddRentryLine () function should be recalled somewhere, where ???

The bot does not replace the re-entry line if you delete it. You have to re-draw it yourself and use the correct name for it.

I have added code to redraw the RentryLine if deleted
Now I would want be able to move the line with the mouse (drag and drop)

Is someone have the code for this ???

Thanks in advance
