remove ea from chart, hit f3 delete all global variables, then drop the ea back on again, see if that fixes your no display issue

Hi the-game,

There is a small bug in your latest EA. Nothing happens if the new trading hours feature is enabled & it is outside of trading hours. It is getting stuck continually resetting phantoms. The following change fixes it:

Inserted Code
if (UseTradingHours)
  {
    if (TimeHour(TimeCurrent()) >= StartHour &&
      ((TimeHour(TimeCurrent()) < FinishHour && FinishHour != 0) ||
       (TimeHour(TimeCurrent()) < 24 && FinishHour == 0)))
    {
      [b]if (StopAfterNoTrades && TotalTrades == 0)
         {
         ResetPhantoms();
         StopAfterNoTrades = false;
         }[/b]
    }
    else
    {
      StopAfterNoTrades = true;
    }
  }


EDIT: Looks like you beat me!

EDIT2: My change doesn't do anything - I'm full of it!

hello the-game, I set start hr = 8 and finish hr = 18 because I am using gomarkets
If you are basing your times off timmy's suggestion of 6-16 GMT, then yes, those times are correct.

No I was just confirming that you are using the correct GMT+2 times based on timmy's suggested times.

With the new attachment you will NOW see the text.

Don't be so hard on yourself, how else are you going to learn?

I made many errors before I was confident with MQL4, and I'm a Java Programmer by trade!

It's a common mistake using the current charts Bid/Ask, instead of the Symbol's Bid/Ask.

BTW, I love the PipStep mod... I was thinking the same thing this morning when I saw many EU sells within 3-5 pips of each other.

I've got my own private Extreme going with the timings mod using timmy's suggested times and your pip step mod at 10 pips.

timmy, can I ask what's your reasoning for using 0600 - 1600 GMT as the trade sequence opening window?
You could use any time around these times - pre Europe (so maybe 0700-0800, and finish just before lunch in the US session - if I have my timing correct...)

Not a bug.

I just didn't have the PrintChartComments() in the right place if StopAfterNoTrades was true.

See attached.

No need to create a new account or restart MT4, just replace your file with the one attached and compile - then you will see the text.
I have downloaded into my chart, but the text is not coming in the chart as usual. Any problem ?

Thanks

Hi all

Attached is my screen.

At least, the EA is not running during Asian time.

From what I gather from the source code, the EA is actually using the time equivalent to the Broker Time.

Stay Tune

mallim, that is correct, it is using Broker Time... I'm pretty sure I've mentioned that in my post

But you can always change the StartHour and FinishHour in the EA settings, if you need to.
