Here is version 21, just a couple minor changes. This version is the same as the last version 20 test accept for whats been added below.

1) Compacted display on right side of screen to better fit on lap Tops.
2) Added a setting for candle stick trailing stop to use with the 0.25 futures increments. Set this to true if using candlestick trailing stops with futures that use the increment of 0.25 for stop losses, for Forex just leave at false. This was something Max wanted, I haven't tested it yet so I hope it works. If you want it moved 0.25 in either direction for Long or Short trade let me know.

The default settings for version 21 are Max's H4 Forex setting, So just drop it on a H4 chart and your ready to go. Just make sure live tradeing is enabled.

Good Luck

EDIT: I just re-uploaded version 21, just a couple more changes to the display area. I made it so when "AutoBuySell" or "UseHanover" are set to false they are not shown in the display area, this should cut down some more on the clutter of things not being used.
So for those who have already downloaded you may want to do it again. No other changes, just display changes.

So we had a bullish asian session and start of the london session. Then we switched back to our sell-off usual scenario

What am I looking at?

Fully technicals? Last couple of times, I've seen good ranging periods (Around a week) before resuming sell-offs and I think this is what we are needing now.

The first picture is an example of what I'm talking about.
The second picture are the PMIs that were cooling a bit in average (of course this is not going to change the current situation).
And the third is for possible supply and demand zones for this possible upcoming ranging period.

Hello sir,
Thanks very much for all the improvements and the new versions. I normally look at higher TF recent strength for trading lower TFs for instance when trading H4 I look at D1 recent strength. In version 21 I notice that if I put a different TF for recent strength then the values are not displayed. Is there any way of fixing this?

Kind Regards
P.S. Ver19 is rocking today.

Your H4 set file is doing a bang up job so far since I started it on the 23rd. My penney live account is up 10 percent in just those couple of days. I am running it on 11 pairs at this time, but may remove a few depending on how they trade after a few weeks. Not enough time yet to get a good feel for your H4 set file but it is off to a great start even in this short Holiday week. I just let it run and I don't do any manual intervention, I don't even have to stay up any more to trade, just go to bed and when I get up I check to see how much money I made while I slept. I have 4 open trades yet this morning, the others I have removed the EA from rather than have more open trades over the week end. When these last 4 close I will remove the EA from them also, I like to go into the weekend with no open trades and start next week fresh.
Just took a quick look at the 4 open trades and 3 are positive, so thats good.
I will probably add a couple of your other close ideas to the next version.
1) TDIC1 close
2) CCI close
I am running version 20 at the present time but will switch to version 21 this weekend with the same settings.

Thanks for all the testing and help and the great H4 set file.

Nice catch.

Will fix in next version, for now you may not want to use the C1 slope.
What is happening it is not resetting when the slope changes from Up to Down or from Down to Up, it stays the same as the previous until the set level triggers it to change, so there is no YELLOW in between.

Thanks

No Problem seller9, glad i can help

FOR ALL: what im trying to replicate is BIGE's style or similar with some minor additions to make ithe confirmations stronger and less false signals, there will always be losses but it's less risky.

some asked me if i was testing H1, i will next week one with 15m trend and another with H4 Trend both with Hanover with same Trend TF's.

but if people look at that H4 set file that seller9 and im using, it already has H1 included with the Trend & TDIC1 now i just added the H1 Hanover, so basically that setfile is doing a H4 / H1 combo, confirming signals on both TF's.

Here you go, don't say I didn't warn you, the only thing is I haven't had time to do the directions for setting up the recent strength indicator to work with it, so everyone is on their own.
Go over to the Hanover forum and there are directions on doing it. If not set up properly it will not work. I have included some files that should get you up and running quickly if done as listed below.
Also, if you select more than 1 time frame for Hanover the bar graph in the EA will only display the first one you have entered but will still use the others...
Many thanks to you and ather contributers for the excelent effors you are putting in this EA.

I am testing TMS 20 on a demo account using the H4 setup on the template available in the zip file (set file attached).

For the whole last week it started only 2 trades but with no TP. One trade is now with profit of 63 pips (was at one point over 130 pips) and the is negative 51 pips.

I am sure that every thing is set properly as per your instruction.

Why just 2 trades in a week and why no TP?

Sam


Edit: I switched to TMS 21 with default setting (maxzeus H4). Will see what will happen next week.

You don't have any take profit set to send to the Broker thats why it is zero.

TakeProfit=0
TPmultiplier=0.00000000

Also I don't know if you were intending to use MM for your lot size or not but Lot needs to be set to zero for MM to work for Lot Size.

Lot=1.00000000
RiskPercent=1.00000000

Also, Hanover makes the selection of trades much more selective.
I have been having good luck with version 21 and Max's settings, see how they work for you, just put it on some pairs and let it run without any intervention, let the robot do its thing.

Good Luck

Thought I may as well post this with a few minor fixes as mentioned in previous posts. I have also added one more close routine that uses the CCI, MAX thought this may be useful.
When the market opens I will be running V22 with MAX's H4 settings just like last week, that turned out real good, the live account was up about 10%, will see if this continues or it was just a lucky week.

It looks like a lot of traders have been downloading the various versions, it would be nice if you could share with the rest of us how things are going, Demo or Live, and if you have blown your account or are still in the hunt.

Good Luck

Edit: I updated the EA with the cci changes.

Check your CCI settings, I think I defaulted them to something different than what MAXs is using.
I have been using the following but I am not sure if these are correct, maybe MAX can clarify.

cciTrigger = 50
cciPeriod = 15

These are what I was using this past week with good success but don't know for sure if they are what MAX is using, and the defaults in V22 are different I believe.

Edit: I have updated the previous post with the above cci settings as the default

ya i used CCI 15 / 50 but i recommend the defaults that you put in v22 which is my original CCI 22 / 100 or some could try 22 / 50 it's safer, since i got 2 USD/CAD losses that if i had 22/50 or 22/100 it would of not triggered 1 or both of those false orders

for the CCI closing i left it at level 0 for now, will see what next week brings after testing it, usually with my other strategy using the CCI when it reversed and hit level 100 i closed the trade but i don't know how the CCI level will react if it's at the same level as the Trigger

it was slow on friday right after a holiday and it showed that it's safer to put CCI higher, i use the CCI in a way as some would use the TMS ZONES.

cheers

Hi seller,
thanks for this EA, i'm the one from a lot of trader that download your EA, but i'm still find the best set up for M15 scalp.

My set up is use tdi cross and slope, stoch and slope, and PA 5 ema but its not good entry, so i add one more very lagging indi that called 'tcci', this indi based on PA too. i usually manual entry that i see slope and color tcci its 'good' and 'beautiful' or not, if its good angle i'm in if not i'll find another.
would you add this indi to your EA? or you have another M15 scalper set up?

thanks.
