this is how i do it it might be wrong but my eas run without problems so far

i download it direct in to experts

replace old one with new update

open mt4, open one currency remove old ea

open expert advisers place on chart. alter lot size ect

i then make a template save as #1ea

then apply #1ea to templaes to all currencies

there may be a simpler way but this way i dont have problems using
new template

i dont seem to have any problems so far

hope this help maybe some one has a more simple way ?

Coders with even less knowledge than me might like to bookmark this thread: http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...94#post4431794

As genius's like Matt add to my limited fund of knowledge, I add their contributions to my shell ea. In future, I shall update the shell in light of their contributions.

Good Morning Steve,
Unable to change the lot size in latest update B mq4 file and recompile without errors....My usual 4-digit crook.....

thanks
whip
Hi Steve,
Reloaded "B" on another computer and fresh platform and I still get the same error messages in the compiler when I try to change the lot size and recompile the mq4 file....
Enclosed are the error messages generated by MetaEditor...As I remember I've had this once before and it was an edit of a full lot then...
If you have a few minutes to spare could you post a copy of the bot with a .1 or .01 default lot size and let me try that....I hate to give up editing the mq4 files...

Thanks for this and sorry for all the trouble

the basis for the sysyem is the patern of wm price low with brians index 3

indicators are all lagging except the price now

i use indicators ect to try and take in in future trend trend in time frames agreements

to trade in trend of now price and cycle


the indicator lsma like all is a lagging indicator but good for trend direction too

as you know the time frame one uses settings are different for other frames

eg lsma frame is 21 but the calcs for 15 minutes equiv setting is 336


OF COURSE THIS COMMON KNOWLEDGE RE IDEAL SETTING IN ONE TIME FRAME MUST BE RECALCED FOR ANOTHER FRAME

so only price and paterns and curent bar in relationship with hh ll and opening price( brians insde bar 3 )


is the bases of price action now cyclic trading

i use this together with cyclic trading based on the logic traders methods and my own crazy method of adding in trend confirmations for cyclic loss profit loss and account buisness management

i hope this clear up some points i find like the great trader slats lsma and its corect time frame setiings help in the price trend according to lsma

ps its on steves list on page 1

I guess no one saw my question, is there an indicator that manual draws the lines for you? I'm not wanting to auto trade this but an indicator would definitely save time drawing all the lines.

How strange. See if this allows you to edit the lot sizes.

Strange. Me neither. I will try to remember to release without 1 lot sizes.

Any ideas, anyone?

No. It is the 15th before the 2nd that came after the 35th.

OK, leaving aside the LSMA stuff and taking one step at a time, point 4 in The List is this:
4. THE NUMBER OF BUYERS TO SELLERS AS PER TICK SEPERATED VOLUME

How do you measure this?

Stop now, and remember I respect you and your skill or I would not have vouched for you. I do not allow unpleasantness in my threads unless it is me flaming some poor miscreant for asking silly questions. Hypocritical I know, but there you are.

There is an input in the ea that allows you to use it as a signals generator. The ea draws quite a lot of lines. If there are any that you need that are missing, then you will have to do without them.

Please read post 1 with care. My intention is that everything you need to use the ea is there. If you are not trying to use the ea, then you are in the wrong thread. If post 1 contains stuff you do not understand, then play with the ea on demo until you do understand. I am a pianist, not a coder or a writer; my weaknesses in the latter two can easily lead to mis-understanding of my intentions because I have not expressed myself clearly enough.

Quite possibly. Thanks.

One of the things I have to bear in mind as an ea coder is the processing power required to call up custom indis such as this one. Custom indis decimate the processor power and can slow our computers to a crawl

Happily, the indi you offer is merely a concatenation of two existing indis, calls to whom are included with the benighted mql4 code. So, there is a quick and easy avenue to reading their values instantly opened up to me that I would not have known about without your contribution.

I shall wait for Brian's comments in answer to my earlier query, and will concatenate his response with yours to come up with a moderately intelligent solution.

Cheers, and thanks.

Been reading up on this thread and it's got my interest - particularly with it appearing to suit global trading.

Call me old fashioned, but as a guy who has been badly burnt before by not utilising stop losses, I just have to know what the worst is that can happen to my account before I feel safe entering a trade. I am therefore going to spend the week testing with a global stop loss. To start the week off I have set $50 global TP with a global SL set at -$150. Will let you know how it goes.

Cheers
FK
