Can't make dynamic reentrypips calculation work, so I have returned to Max's original settings.

Hi Steve,

Did you get any further with the dynamic reentrypips thingy - or is it a dead duck ..

Steve, I've come to London for a fortnight and am staying with my son. The child next door is learning piano. I waited and waited for your nasty laugh you once described in some thread of yours but I didn't hear it.
So I guess you are NOT teaching that child!

I had to drop the laugh after the time I tried a, "Mwa-ha-ha-ha-ha" on a 9 year old. She looked at me scornfully and said, "Steve, that laugh needs working on."

Hi Steve,
When you go in and fix dynamic reentrylinepips value calculation could you add an individual tag(comment) to each trade this bot takes. IMHO this should be SOP on each EA written and it helps old duffers like me follow the trades and manipulate them if needed.....
Thank you and have a great day....

Steve,

sorry I was about to modify my post as I realized I made a mistake to address this to 'Bob' (as I was reading his thread along side with yours) and also realized the other mistake but didn't manage to delete the post in time...

Of course the line:
if (StringSubstr(Symbol(), 0, 6) == "AUDNZD") { BarCount = 20; }

IS correct and it is NOT a typo.

So please ignore it and I will shut up for a while...of course

A thought for the better-organised here, guys.

The idea macman first sent me was ridiculously simple to code; The Beast had few inputs and was easy to understand. Back then, it wasn't even called The Beast.

Now, it is ridiculously complex and I would hate to be a newb coming across it for the first time. Anybody here have the organisational skill and understanding to volunteer to write a user guide?
