Hi Seller,

you mentioned : Changed the SL to lowest/highest of last 2 previous candles if other options are set to "0"

Do I need to turn UseLasfractalSL to false as well in order to activate the above feature?

Thank you for your effort, this is a great EA !

Hi Seller,
After updating to V9 I am getting an error message (Project1: File not found). I think it has to do with the fact that I removed the previous version V8 from the C:TMS folder.
Do we have to leave both versions in the folder?

Thanks!

If you installed the original V8 using the .msi file V9 should run OK without V8 needed.

If your starting from scratch do the following.

1) Run the original V8 installer and install it into the TMS folder under the C: drive, this will install the needed DLLs the program needs. The V9 .exe is not an installer so if these DLLs are not present it will not run.
2) Now you can just copy the V9 .exe into the TMS folder and change your short cuts if needed and it should run. If you created any config files with V8 they should work with V9.

Just noticed one thing with the Highest or Lowest SL setting in the EA. I forgot to lock the code into the H4 time frame. So if you change time frames it will use the values of the candles from what ever time frame you are on. I will fix this in the next version. This could cause you to get knocked out of a trade if you change time frames. If you just stay on the H4 you will be OK.

Sorry if this causes any problems.

After playing around with the DB, I have a suggession that a "text" window can be provided for the broker,s name will be appericated.

Thanks again for the nice DB.
Sometimes it takes me a while to see what your looking for. After looking at your example I now see what you want. I will add this information window in the next version of the DB.

This will help those who have multiple DB running on Different Brokers, so they can tell them apart.

Good Luck

I have loaded the ea (TMS V8) on an FXDD chart and an Alpari US chart. No dashboard appears once the setting is changed to "true".

I am reading step 12 on the TMS.pfd where it states: 12) Once the EA is smiling, you need to check the files folder under the experts folder to see if the text files that the Dash Board reads are being created. The one shown below has 9 pairs being monitored. These are text files and can be read by Note Pad if you want to see what is in them. If these files are not present the Dash Board will not work. . . .

My computer is running Windows XP. The EA is smiling. Would anyone be able to tell me what must done at this point to get the Dashboard to appear? Thanks for any help. jack

jackdood,

The Dashboard is a separate program. It has to be unzipped and loaded per instructions into your :

Crogram Files

then place a shortcut on your desktop to the exe file and run it as a seperate program..

but yes the option for dashboard has to be selected in the ea as well.

Tommy--Thanks. I thought it had been done; obviously not. I will double-check.

Yes this is what I intended to say, and you have express them much better than I can think off.

One way I can suggest is to display the directory after it has been configered. eg: "Crogram Files (x86)Ava MetaTrader" and display only "Ava MetaTrader"
at the available space at the bottom of the DB.

Thanks.

Are the files being created in the Files folder? If not try running MT4 as "Administrator" to create these files. Be sure DB is set to true in settings.
Once these files are created then you can get the DB running.
1) Did you firast install the V8 DB from the msi file in order to create the DLLs that are needed?
2) After the DLLs are created you can then replace the V8 .exe file with the V9 .exe file and it should work. Just be sure you are installing it into the TMS folder under the C: root drive, you may need to create this folder if you have not done so already. Don't put it under the Program files folder.

Did you read the PDF that came with the V8 TMS?

I am testing V10 at this time with the added information window which will appear in the header. You can put any info you want in this window in the configuration setup.

Here are some other changes, hopefully close to the last.
1) You will now have 3 TDI confirmation time frames you can select and choose if you want an alert on the TDI Cross or just Green above or Below Red. You can use none of these or any number of these 3 at once. If you set the first one to 5 with Cross=true and the second one to 60 with Cross=false, this would be the same as the original version with the 3rd one turned off.
2) I have also added the option so you can select the TMA as a Daily trend indicator or use the NB one, your choice and counter trend is still available. TMA set to true would be like the original TMS program.

Good Luck

Hey Peeps, and Seller,
Thanks for all the hard work, I started this little machine last night, got 2 trades (each +20 pips, as I set a conservative TP). This am I restarted the bot on one EURCAD, and it put in another order ( I guess conditions were still right... ) and got another +20 pips.. cool.. not sure if that was a good idea though, the cross happened hrs before that... oh well.. still only 2nd candle.. So far so good, wonder how I'll feel after the first big loss.. Anyways, seems to be pretty good on taking trades on the right signal, so it's encouraging. thanks again guys! great job!

I am still unable to get the your outstanding DB running. Still getting the error that MSSTDFMT.DLL is missing. I have done the manual registration, uninstalled Project1 and reinstalled, rebooted, etc. all the usual steps but no luck.

Got any ideas ?

Windows is funny sometimes with DLLs. Try unregistering it and then reregister it again. Also if you are running Windows 7 and it is in the WOW folder you may also want to put it in the System32 folder and see what happens. Do a Google search as there are other people who have had the same problems with DLLs and Windows.
Are you also registering it as an administrator and does it come back with registered OK box?
It may just need to be copied to other folders such as System32 so the program can find it.

Thanks for the response. I was running as an admin and got the OK box from windows. I did not copy the dll file to the system32 directory. I will give that a try as well and search google.
