Try deleting your global variables maybe. I am not sure why that would do that, but who knows. Good luck. (F3 key)
I started with a clean copy of MT4 and it worked . So now I have V111 running on live on the smallest possible lot and risk. I will keep watching it closely to see what happens.

I decided to go with V111 because it behaved well in the demo test and maintained a very low DD. I have not used the latest because I felt it was a big change from before and we should let it get proven first. I will set it up on demo and let it run for a while.

Max,

With v113, have you had TMA trades execute? I have them executing on a TMA beta EA, but they are not replicating within your bot v113. I have replace set to true and the incidators in the appropriate folders. No error messages are being generated.

Yes I have some, but there is much more conditions in my Ea before open a trade

I'm about to set a new forward for max's latest bot. Was testing v71 with arbinka fix...is was profitable....but missed a lot of trades due to some errors. I really did like the v71 prior to that...but we are so far from that now....

Is there anything in particular that needs to be tested that is not already in progress? Any are there any special templates for using the TMA and trix....eg, do I need to add the the chart or does EA call them without them on the chart. I can add my own settings if I know that the indicator needs to be on the chart.

Cheers

my v100 seems to be in 'rest' mode on all charts so far this week. It's totally flat all trades have closed out last night sometime, and no further trading is happening. Not sure whats up.
Even tried to turn off the news filter, but doesnt seem to be working so far.
Any ideas?

Ok thanks. I will let it run as is and compare profitability on just that strategy. Great job on building this bot. I will report back to you on how they compare on forward tests.

I had no trades from last fri until now.. I keep upgrading to the latest bot aswell.

The time to trade is ok... shows green but the checks to open the trades are more strict I guess... Looking at Max's mt4i looks like there are trades being triggered.

Everybody MUST upload at least v130 since there are many bugs that have been corrected. v133 is the latest with variables lot.
I would like that every testers stop to use old versions since the bugs lurking inside this old versions make stupid to continue to discuss about some problem accurs.
I will stop to modify MAXX Ea this week so everybody will work with the same stable version and you can report what seems strange for you.
I have not too much time this few days for coding and I have to work on master EA since calculation end of day / end of morning... are not really accurate, even if it do it's job rather good.

v130 have trade a lot today. I started last night with no open trades and also finished tonight with everything close with master EA.
886 € banked, not bad, that's almost 1.5% !!.

I wouldn't mind testing the latest version, but the variable lots and lotsizing based on atr still doesn't make much sense to me.
Can this indeed be disabled for sure, and manual lot sizing enabled?
Making sure before I update to latest.
I also assume if we do not want to mess with the untested TMA mode, we can stick with the normal 6ths method.

lotsizing based on pipvalue was an idea from scoob few months ago, but was incomplete ,since atr matter also. So i calculate the both in order to have a fair idea about full piprange of the pair possible for one day. That's make many sense. Do you want same lot size for EurGbp than for GbpJpy or XauUsd ?
anyway if you don't like set AdaptLotWithAtrPipvalue=false

Will upload and test version 133. Great work, just one thought regarding indicators. At present we have THV 4 trix, TMA centered and other indicators, but in Post 1 these are not in the max EA zip file. kindly ask steve to update the file and the indicators in order to avoid confusing new people to the thread.

Kind regards

Why not start a new thread? I think the focus of this is strongly on Max's EA so it make sense. I think it is fair for Max and removes any confusion.

I gave up on this thread a long time ago. I have not the remotest idea where Max's latest things are, nor do I have the time or energy to keep up with them.

So far as I can see, Max's bot has about as much to do with the original concept as it does with a piece of cheese. The original concept has morphed into The Beast and I shall be doing no further development of NB5.

I suggest Max starts his own thread and provides me with a brief description of his bot to go in post 1 here, then I can put a link to his thread along with the description and close this thread. It seems to me that it has done a great thing by providing a framework for Max's development, but I would hate to be a newbie arriving here.

Hell, it is my thread and I haven't the foggiest idea what is going on, so newbs have no chance.
