Hello peterporter,

Can you please pm your edited version?

I'd like to demo it as well with my broker.

Thanks!
That would be great, Peter. Or if you donīt want to post it could you provide a downloadlink? I tried changing the code with Steveīs new version but it seems that it doesnīt function. I donīt get any trades.

Thank you very much!

Best regards!

I am running the EA on demo and noticed the following multiple trades for EURAUD. See attached screenshot.

Surely only 1 trade should have been entered.

Is this a problem with other users?

Should there not be an imput in the EA to allow a user defined maximum number of trades?

First, I had a EURUSD trade entered with the Manual bot and when I checked later it was suspended with an open trade so I had to click on it to reactivate.

Add: I was short the EURNZD (manual bot), price moved 15 pips, BE moved to 3, got stopped out and Immediately another order was entered.

Yeh tazmaan its doing ok
I left it going aswell , I will leave it on 24/7

EURAUD = SELL = +31 pips
USDJPY = BUY = +10 pips
AUDUSD = SELL = +25 pips
AUDCAD = SELL = +29 pips
AUDCHF = SELL = +10 pips
AUDJPY = SELL = +29 pips
NZDUSD = SELL = +26 pips
CADJPY = BUY = +21 pips
EURCHF = SELL = -30 pips

Total closed trades = +151 pips

floating = -10 pips (sell eurjpy, sell eurnzd)
currently active
______________________________________
Second, Peter what profit and SL settings are you using? The default is 3 pips at BE (15) and 30 pips jumping, so don't understand how you are getting 10, 21, 26, etc.

How would I change the 240MA to 960MA?

Thank you
W1MaVal = GetMa(PERIOD_M15, 240, 0, MODE_SMMA, PRICE_MEDIAN, 0);

TO

W1MaVal = GetMa(PERIOD_M15, 960, 0, MODE_SMMA, PRICE_MEDIAN, 0);

Thank you Peter,

I've done the editing including the GetHigh() & GetLow() for stops.

Have already taken some profitable trades in a couple hours.

Hi Steve.. not sure if you are back yet.. but thought i'd let you know that Bob has added a 48MA smooth to his system - marking the daily trend. He says "When price moves inbetween it and 240 MA, it lets you know that a trend change or consolation stage has started". I think this addition should reduce any drawdown to.

Just thought i'd let you know in case you'll want to code it into your EA.

Regards

Just got everything all set up in an IBFX demo. I quick question this does work on 5 decimals right? and do I need to give them all a magic number besides 0? I was looking around on the thread and I know they dont need to be different but didnt know about the 0.

Thanks

Yep, it does work with 5 decimals and you can leave the magic number to 0 or change it. That doesn't matter.

I installed latest bot but never open trade since then.

I wonder whether this code is the cause of it?...
Thanks. 'none' refers to the trend. 'notrade' refers to the trading status. I managed to confuse myself again.

The fix for this is in post 1.

Not sure if this will finally put the bugs to bed. We shall see.

Great piece of bug-spotting WTjS. Cheers.

I read earlier that some people were having problems with Trade Status is: Not looking for a trade trigger on the auto trading robot. I was wondering if anyone figured this problem out because I am having the same problem.

Weird thing is, I don't have it on the manual trading robot.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

For some reason when I load the EA my journal says loaded successfully but then a second later it says removed.

Does any one know why this would be happening, it still shows up on the chart as if it where active.

If you meant this status "Trade Status is: Not looking for a trade trigger"
then there is nothing wrong with your EA.
It will look for touching the upper of TMA and if the trend is DT
then the status will change, before that conditions met (and some others conditions--read the EA explanation/naningbob thread); that's the status you get.
may the pips be with you for your boy
