Hi Seller9,

You are a real gentleman with patience and ability.

I am mainly a lurker. I mostly manual trade. I have tried dozens of robots and they are all junk or have bad strategies. I would like a robot to trade the London session as I am old and like my sleep. I live in Florida and am in the EDT zone. You are have coded the best robot I have tested. Your EA is very polished and stable. The market is now in range mode and 4H charts are to slow. 4H is great in trend mode. Thank you for efforts to make multi TF available. Also, the option you have made 5 ma + / - pips away is very good way to set a SL.

If I can be of any help please ask. Thanks again.

Joe

Good ideas for next version 12.

I was playing around with using ATR * ? for SL, but was running into problems because the demo I was trying it on "FXDD" has a minimum of 40 pips from the market price and another Broker I have is 60 pips. So its hard to get a tight stop on the M15 where I have been testing it using BE or JS settings. On the H4 it may not be a problem as SL would be larger. Like with EURGBP, which on the M15 has a ATR of 7 at this moment I would need at least a "6" for the ATR multiplier to prevent the SL error. Any thoughts...
Frankly I am shocked that FXDD et al have such ridiculously large minimum SL requirements.

Was it ever thus, or is this a new scam by our Crim "friends"?

I suppose in this case, the user would also need to input a minimum amount in pips corresponding with the minimum allowed by his Crim. Entering zero would allow the bot to work it out for itself.

You are correct setting the ECN Criminal to true, establishes the trade.

Thanks

Idea for V12

option to take 50% of the trade off at a certain pip level e.g. take 50% of the trade off at 30 pips.

try turning on counter trend trading as a test, the problem with using the 2/8 daily trend function is it never seems to kick off any trades.

Make sure that you have all the indicators that come with V10 and have them installed in the MT4 indicators folder. It is not necessary to have them on to the chart, but the EA do need them to make calculations.

I hope this will also help.

turning counter trading on and using the TDi confirm 10080 setting - so your always trading with the weekly direction. Maybe the answer on the H4 is just using alert mode only and use your own trend analysis. If you need an indicator I like the supertrend no repaint version for trend set to 1440 or 10080.

BTW I think the 2/8 is an excellent indicator for the current daily trend and I think it will be great for the lower timeframes it's just doesn't work well for the EA on the H4 timeframe.

Currently testing on M15 as it goes faster than waiting on the H1 or H4. Looks good so far and I have added more options so you are able to select just what alerts you want to use. Still not happy with BE and JSL settings but will let everyone decide on how we should handle that when they start testing it. Should be out this week end, I was tied up this past week drilling a new well and also having the roof on my house replaced. So money going out and none comming in, thats why we need an EA that can take care of itself and make money.

Here it is if you want to play with it, see if you can find some settings that work. If you are using the Dash Board, be sure to use the V11 DB also. You can set the time frame and it doesn't matter what time frame the chart is on, the same as before. You can also now turn off some of the alerts if you don't want to use them.

I don't have a lot of time right now to explain whats different but you should be able to figure it out. So test away and let us know the results. Check your log to make sure you have no errors because of missing indicators in your indicator folder. They don't need to be on the chart but must be in the indicators folder for the EA to work.
