i am just checking my charts , and i dont have those problems...steve gave me this Ea this morning , so ill need some time to test it , but so far i dont have any troubles.
Hi Lazar,

I just tested the EA and nothing is wrong with it except that no currency pair is highlighted in the alert. The alert only says, "You have potential breakout trades;" that's all. No currency pair is stated. Therefore you can't readily know which currency pair(s) you are being alerted to. So you want Steve to correct this, and also confirm whether we need to have all the currency pairs listed in the EA property input of just one pair (as example, on EURUSD) or the EA must be put on all pairs we are monitoring. I am asking this question because the EA contains all the currency pairs and was wondering whether this will be enough to trigger the alert for each of them without putting them on their individual charts!!!

I tried putting only EURUSD on the EA property input (pairs to trade) that was attach to EURUSD and the alert was still the same - "You have potential breakout trades;" no pair mentioned.

Thank you Lazar, and have a refreshing and blessed week-end.

Cheers,

George

I have always found it interesting why people make comments like this one below.

so, the indicators can be considered mis-leading aids!...

FF is an international forum and many of the contributors do not have English as their first language. It will sometimes take me three or four readings of some posts to work out what the poster is actually trying to say, and I include in that statement several posts where the contributor does supposedly have English as their first language

When I read the above post I interpreted it to mean: I see that naked trading is performing very well, so much so that the indicators which so many other people use may be considered as unnecessary aids!. Interesting.

I can see your point Merlin...I would respectfully yield ..But one must take into consideration...... the response to the statement by LG. In the event that you are correct ( and I hope that you are ) I will gladly withdraw my statement. I will agree that the english language can be difficult .. Especially in its written form ( even for those who it is their first language )

Ok lets go by numbers:
1) There is no need to put EA on every chart of the pairs you are monitoring.
2)just open some pair chart you dont trade ...like Gold for example , and set the inputs.
3) when some pair comes on the opening of the 4 candle in the range of > or =20 pips(if that is range you set), you will get alert , and then just open chart gold see the pairs listed there who are in that range .
Some times if you get some mistakes on EA , just remove Ea from ma chart )gold for example) and reload it . That should solve your troubles ! I could ask steve to make adjustments , and that when you get alert , its will say which new pair is in that range...
Help to be helped.

I'm going to ask that you guys take the EA talk private. I have seen whole threads go down because of exactly this back and forth. While I understand that some of you may be interested in an EA, I believe an EA compromises the integrity of this kind of trading. Thanks.
