Here is the PDF I have started work on for the TMS Version 16 that will probably be out next weekend after I do some testing this week. A bunch of changes so just want to make sure most of the bugs are out of it. Take a look at the PDF and see if it makes any sense. I think I have gotten most of the changes everyone was looking for. Still waiting to hear back about the MaxWins, MaxLosses, etc and how the user wanted to see those implemented. So far I just have those numbers posted in the Data Panel on the right side of the screen but am not using...
you are good! this new V is looking to be packed full of goodness, cant wait to give it a run. its awesome to see all the ideas and suggestions all wrapped into one EA.

@ seller9 many thanks for the nice manual for version 16, hope to see it rock better than the previous version, please see to it that the stop loss is kept tight and the hit ratio of winners are are improved, when you do the testing .

eusd for example ideal stop should be 17-21 pips max

I was wondering why an mq4 was never included whenever a new version was released into the thread.
Does that mean he wont be releasing the source mq4 so that users can add their own code to it while keeping the orginal code in its current form in the thread.. or use some of the features in another EA a user may have?



I guess by "He" you mean me.

The original is at post #1 along with the code. Please feel free to make any additions or corrections to it to make it better. The present one just has additions to it by...

Yes you are correct.
I was trying to point out to him that you reserve the rights to do as you wish and no one can question you about your wish.

Tnx

@Seller9,

Use5emaCandleClose:
Set to true if you want the signal candle to close above the 5ema shift 2 for a Long or close below the 5ema shift 2 for a Short trade.

Use5emaPA:
Set to true if you only want the PA to be Above the 5ema shift 2 for a Long Trade or the PA to be below the 5ema shift 2 for a Short trade. The candle does not have to be closed.

In the first rule i.e (Use5emaCandleClose).. You stated close above and close below (underline).
But in the second rule i.e (Use5emaPA).. You just use above and below (underline) but no CLOSE or OPEN.

what we think the rule to be is ..
After a TDI cross,the trade will be taken when a New Candle Open Above the 5ema shift 2 for Long and/or a New Candle Open Below the 5ema shift 2 for short.

The operative word is/are the UNDERLINED words.

Sorry about this,i am just trying to make sure we are saying the same thing.
so that it will save you the time and energy to go and modify another version of this EA to include this rule exactly as we think it to be.

tnx ones again for your understanding.
It Is Well With My Soul..(Amen)

First, I want to congratulate and thank for this phenomenal topic. secondly wanted to put a question because I've been seeing in previous posts but have not found, which is the following: This EA can not do backtests? because in my case I've tried to do and I can not.
advance grateful.

Do you just want to show these numbers or do you want to be able to set number of Maximum Wins, Losses or Trades before it takes no more trades????
"set number of Maximum Wins, Losses or Trades before it takes no more trades". I couldn't say it better.

Per trading session. I understand that would be the hours you allow the EA to trade.

Well I have just finished reading this whole thread and now I need to start learning how to use this tool. My thanks and congratulations to all of the work done here. It has been a true joint effort amongst testers and the developer.

I saw that there were issues with Context Busy and 130 errors. I didn't want to presume that my help was needed but will gladly offer the code I use to avoid these trading issues.

Since I have hardly have posed here I cannot PM otherwise I would have kept this off board. If you are interested either PM me or post...
Nice buddy, offer it right here

How to say this?.... Have you fallen from heaven? This is what (I'm sure of it) everybody wanted (after knowing that people like you are real).

I guess what I can say is this: Keep up the good work!

I have also answered the question about the Max code at one or two posts above.

Why to backtest if you can forward test and make money from testing ?

PS: I tried once too, and I couldn't. I guess it's to complex for the MT4 platform strategy tester.

I'm using Star's settings for V15, LIVE.

Please post some live results. I only see mostly demos.

News events do make a difference and the TMS V15 EA needs supervising..

I'm not denigrating the TMS V15 EA or Star's settings.

BUT live does makes a difference.

@Seller9,

Use5emaPA:
Set to true if you only want the PA to be Above the 5ema shift 2 for a Long Trade or the PA to be below the 5ema shift 2 for a Short trade. The candle does not have to be closed.

In the first rule i.e (Use5emaCandleClose).. You stated close above...
Use5emaCandleClose:

Here is what this one is based on.

When PA crosses 5 ema and closes... that is the set up candle. The entry is on the 2nd candle if it's the same color.

I can add to this one that the open of the 2nd candle must be above/below the 5ema also, would that be what you are thinking?
Then the first candle would have to close above/below 5ema and the 2nd candle(trade candle) would have to open in the same direction as the close of the first candle.

Use5emaPA:

This one just watches the present candle and if the PA crosses the 5ema it signals. This one is not a TMS alert, just one a forum user thought might be useful, just looking for PA to cross 5ema.

I think there's a way to trade this ea with some news releases such as ECB's rate decision and press conference, NFP and a few more.

Missing the point. Please post LIVE results and how you handle them. EA's need supervision. Send an email alert.

News is one thing, day to day live results is another. I use FX Primus FS account LIVE, with 0.01 lots (micro account).

Most users do not say what broker or account they use or lot size.

Why not post, what broker, lot size and real (live) account?

P.S. I'm testing my REAL money on TMS V15.

Maybe there is a way to add a parameter to avoid trading during the news ? (using the TMS EA with FFCal ?)
That should be awesome (but probably not easy to do...)

News is to your advantage, needs managing though.. My previous post was to show a negative result, when NOT managed. I got a basket trade of at least 75+ pips during news when managed. Thank you TMS EA. Live results please! Managed or not..

I did have that in a previous THV EA I had written, the only problem it seems FFCal keeps changing. I loaded the last version I had and it did not work, will look around for the latest and see what I come up with.

my name is christian and I am new in this great forum. I have a little problem with the installation of TMS.

I have installed parts of the program - all indicators and templates are loaded, I can see the template and all indicators but the program doesn’t work, since day´s no trades......

I read the TMS manual, there I can see, that I need the „project1.msi“ unfortunately, I can not find this folder, also the Dash Board I can not find. I’m working with Windows7.

If this is possible I want to askl for your support, thank you for your help in advance.

best regards
Christian
