very good idea, this brings me to another one:
maybe instead of moving average better using the heiken ashi candles?
if red and 2 bodies with minimum 4 pips -> sell. if green and 2 bodies with minimum 4 pips -> buy.
i like the HA candles very much to indicate a trend.

Here is code to replace when using heiken ashi candles in Steve EA.


void ReadIndicatorValues()
{

trend = none;
//MinCandleSize

//Previous two candles must be >= MinCandleSize - default 4 pips
double length = MinCandleSize * Point;
double extent;
double hOpen1, hClose1, hOpen2, hClose2;

hClose1 = (Open[1] + High[1] + Low[1] +Close[1]) / 4;
hOpen1 = (Open[2] + Close[2]) / 2;

hClose2 = (Open[2] + High[2] + Low[2] +Close[2]) / 4;
hOpen2 = (Open[3] + Close[3]) / 2;


extent = hOpen1 - hClose1;
if (((extent < length) && extent > 0) || ((extent > -length) && extent < 0)) return;//Candle too small
extent = hOpen2 - hClose2;
if (((extent < length) && extent > 0) || ((extent > -length) && extent < 0)) return;//Candle too small


//Look for long setup
if (hClose1 > hOpen1 && hClose2 > hOpen2 && hClose1 > hClose2 ) trend = up;


//Look for short setup
if (hClose1 < hOpen1 && hClose2 < hOpen2 && hClose1 < hClose2 ) trend = down;

}//void ReadIndicatorValues()

thank you very much for your work xlitang! i replaced it and will test it next week.
as i can see, you used the open and close (body) of the candles and not the whole candle, including the wick?

No he won't and is already ready to kill one of the more dimwitted contributors here.

I coded the bot because you asked me to, not because I have any interest in it.

Make any changes you want to my code and adopt it as your own if what I have offered has any use to you. I shall not be contributing further here.

Good luck and cheers.

this ea maybe would be very profitable without the stop loss issue. i just analyzed the trades it made today. my stoploss was never higher than 20, but i had 12 trades with more than 20 pips loss (the highest with -60). if i cut out these >20pips losers, the ea made 772 pips, or EUR 398,69 in 9 hours.

a very big thanks so far to xlitang for the idea and the first ea and to steve for the improvement with his version. i like the idea with the hidden tp & sl.
if we get the issues fixed... would be great.

sadly i don't have a clue about programming in mql. i have some experience in WSH, auto-it & vb, so i understand the sourcecode of ea's, but for writing own code, it's not enough. otherwise i would try to fix this.
but i will learn mql, promise.

I supposed you used Steve EA and out of the BOX settings. we need to watch out for range bound market. Today market had very good trending and EA performed well.

yes, i'am curious how the ea will perform in ranging markets. it's clear that only one day (and yesterday was a good trending as you said) isn't meaningful for a test. i would like to do a test over a couple of weeks to analyze the results, find good pairs and good times. but before a serious test can start, the sl issue needs to be fixed.

yes the test was with steve's EA. before i used your's and i had good results, too. but my broker had some problem with the sl's and tp's, so i often had open trades running without sl or tp.

could this be the issue?

Quote
if (StopLoss > 0)
{
stop = NormalizeDouble(price + (StopLoss * Point) + (HiddenPips * Point), Digits);
//Add hidden pips
stop = NormalizeDouble(stop + (HiddenPips * Point), Digits);
}//if (StopLoss > 0)
(beginning at line 499)

in the first command the hiddenpips are already added and in the second again. to remove the addition in the first line (and at all other places where this calculation occurs) could be the solution.
but i don't have a completely overview of the sourcecode, so it's better if a coder takes a look.

hi xlitang, let me explain the stopping volume here.

on my charts, i added a VA indicator, it is showing the volume of each bar, once a climax bars (red and green) formed, usually indicate the PA will stop there or continue. for more about VA, you need learn about the Volume Spread Analysis.

here are a few loser trade was made when the last candle have a climax bars ,only in this week, i can found more than 10 loser trade cause by stopping volume in only EUR/USD, maybe there are more if i check carefully.

hope this is helpful, avoid some loser trade.

HI frn
I use kiss trading system for four five days to make 20 pips per day which is good but I am confused when you say that candle must not be less than 4 pips long. it means should be small around 4 pips or lower. But I just look for any two candle. But still result is good..

please clarify about candle

Thanks for sharing

You can set hidden stoploss to 0 to fix it.
