DislikedWould somebody deal with this dimwit, please, before I lose my temper and stop him posting altogether?
Thanks

DislikedOK, just call me the dimwit, but I have now set up BigBob on another broker's platform and it triggers properly, so that leads me to believe I am setting the first one up properly, too.
While not a coder, I am not a total newbie and have used other EAs successfully on the first broker's MT4 platform. I have tried increasing the spread value to a large number and still no success on the first broker.
First broker is ECN and trades minis, so set ECN to true and lots to 0.1.
Second broker is non ECN and trades standard lots, so set ECN to...Ignored
DislikedJust a stupid-no-coder question, Steve, that GV stuff is possible to interfere with the backtester, right? Cause BB acts strange if I run a backtest with different settings than previous one...I mean, setting no TP or SL, and it sends orders with TP and SL, then without, ignores confirmation candle, all kind of weird stuff...
Asking that in order to know if I should do something between tests, like deleting old GV?Ignored
DislikedWell, BB_Carolco works fine until now on backtester, has caught a 500 pips down move and booked lots of pips, but seems 2 of the orders left open, are those "orphans" included in some Global closure routine, as the original position is closed based on the rules(I'm using Osthafen rule)? If so, my backtester has failed...:-)
Also, haven't look at the code yet, but how does the pending order works, everyone of them should have SL, right?Ignored
if (trend != ranging && AllowTrendTrading && Volatility >= MinimumTrendTradingVolatility)
trend = up;
DislikedYep, all pendings should have a sl and tp.
BB should delete any pendings remaining if all filled trades have closed.
I am not guaranteeing anything at this stage.
To force BB to send trend trades on demo, so you can see what is happening, go to start() then down to the code
Ahead of this, placeInserted Codeif (trend != ranging && AllowTrendTrading && Volatility >= MinimumTrendTradingVolatility)
(or down, depending on what you want to happen) and recompile. Remember to remove this afterwards...Inserted Codetrend = up;Ignored
DislikedSteve.. am i correct in assuming that the EA has now been equiped with all of Bob's ideas now? These other bits and peices are simply your own add ons right? Are we ready to do a major demo with different settings etc? Or should we wait until some other ideas you have have been incorporated?Ignored
