Kind of off topic but does anyone else here also not use the "version updates" for the mt4 platform? I don't understand how such an old platform could need a platform every week or every few days.
Yep. Me. The platform is rubbish enough already without risking exposure to some additional rubbish. I always assume that updates are criminal-related, not based on a desire to improve my trading.

Boy oh boy but I am cross.

From time to time, Twee will whinge at me because I am less than totally sympathetic to every mindless tithead who occasionally finds my posts slightly astringent.

Apparently, I am supposed to be 'warm and supportive' to every mindless cretin far to stupid to be able to make any sense of what is going on in forex, and who is too sensitive to have this pointed out.

Apparently their ickle wickle feelingsy weelingsy get a little hurty wurty sometimes. Awwe. Ubbems dub. Wub. Remind me to be sympathetic when they...
Morning Steve, I've just read this and laughed me bollocks off !!! You have an excellent turn of phrase. Perhaps you also have a future as a comedy writer as well as Master Coder.

Thanks to everyone again for sharing their knowledge freely !!

Come on guys, let's get back to trading. You can't let these losers distract you from the end goal of being successful traders.

I’ll leave you with a poem called “Anyway” which is often attributed to Mother Teresa. I try to live by the words of this poem although for sure some days I fail. I know you’ll get something from it…

The Anyway Poem

People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centered; forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; Be kind anyway.

If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies; succeed anyway.

If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; be honest and frank anyway.

What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; Build anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; be happy anyway.

The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; do good anyway.

Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; Give the world the best you’ve got anyway.

You see in the final analysis, it is between you and God. It is never between you and those people… anyway.

I have a MPTM question. When try to go to properties of the MPTM nothing happens. I want to make sure I saved the set file this thing is working too good and not 100% sure have set file saved. Any other way to do it.

If I drag MPTM to the chart will it reflect the current settings? or does MPTM default

You should have set AlwaysOn=false in order to be able to enter into properties while running.

Hi dryclean,

Are you using a global pips/profit closure in MPTM or the trailing stop?

The results you have been getting are fantastic.

Thanks in advance

I know, amazing.

Just set everything up on a new demo, i'm a bit late with this one so just trying to catch up!

I also have TOB on my small live account which keeps on churning out pips, only with 0.01 lots but profit is profit. Very interested to see how this one turns out.

Thanks for the info

Yes, arbinka has this correct. I need to add a note to the user guide about this.

Once mptm receives its first tick, it goes into an endless loop, checking the position once a second - we have gspe to thank for that feature. This means it does not depend on the particular chart receiving a tick - a vital feature in basket management.

The downside is that we cannot interrupt mptm to change inputs. We need to:

 

  1. drag an instance of mptm onto the chart
  2. make our input selections
  3. save these as a set file, so it is available next time we want to make small alterations

A word of wisdom from the saint, something we ought to emulate. How? Treat the other person as another God's creation and you will never be in the wrong side.

I needed to make a couple of amendments to the code, neither of them especially significant:

 

  1. delete the re-entry line when a trade closes
  2. the volatility calculations loop logic was wrong, so that there were LookBackDays - 1 iterations

Fix in post 1.

Hi just to clarify is this what you have on mptm

Trailing stop - true
Trailing stop pips = 5
Hide Trailing stop = true
Pipsawayfromvisualts = 10
Trailafterbreakevenonly = false
Stoptrailingatpipsprofit = false
Stop trailing pips = 100

There is a way to force MT4 to display the input window:
stop EAs by clicking the "Expert Advisors" button (make it red, not green), then you can F7;
Make the change as quickly as possible if you have other EAs running, to limit their "downtime".
And don't forget to enable EAs again...
