The indi was compiled under MT4 Build 409. You must be running Build 409 or higher. Pull down Help/About and you will see your MT4 Build Number. If less than 409, you must update your build to run the indi. Note also that you must also have "Heiken_Ashi_Smoothed" in your experts/indicators directory.

You do not have to have "Heiken_Ashi_Smoothed" on the chart -- it just has to be in the experts/indicators directory for the indi to work. If you have a favorite HAS that you like, you can put it on the chart.

Quoting johnny2pips
Which heiken Ashi Smoothed is attached to your chart? This is most likely the problem.

The template crashes mt4 as well, without the HA indicator on the chart.

See above comment on HAS. You must have the "Heiken_Ashi_Smoothed" indicator that Johnny2pips put in the first post in your experts/indicators directory. You can see this error by going to the experts/log/compatibility-files directory and loading the log file. It will be hugh because of the error that has been recorded by not having the correct HAS in the experts/indicator directory. You can delete this hugh file and your MT4 will run faster again. If you don't delete it, MT4 will open a new file after midnight and you will run fast again.

Mine is running ok on build 409. I tried on MT4 lower than build 409 and it crashed.

The BuFu indicator doesn't change anything about the system mechanics. It takes all the signals we look for in both CCI's and HAS and puts them into one easy to read indicator.

Here's a story about last nights trading.

I entered a classic signal produced by bufu. All was going great ontill I decided to try to use a trailing stop. Because Oanda is 5 digit 30 points is only 3 pips. Immediately the stoploss followed price and was stopped out for +4 pips. Fun times good job mt4 Not

Small update:

Removed JPY pairs from my trading selections for a few reasons.

1. To many signals all at once.
2. Wanting to decrease the need to always be in a trade.
3. Specifically not wanting to trade JPY.

Currently waiting on entries to develop on E/U, E/G, and U/C.

No worries your english is just fine. The reason I removed jpy pairs is the low volume. Daily ranges of 40 pips are not what we are looking for with this system. However you could trade jpy with BUFU expecting to take small profits.

I hate to ask an EA question because it's vary shunned upon. How difficult would it be to make one with adjustable TP, SL, CCI and HAS settings? I'd like to be able to backtest a few years of chart data to try and define the best SL and TP for each pair.

Sure bud. Eur/Usd 8pm est close Bufu gave a buy signal. Had I not went to sleep after the trailing stop mishap that trade would be +100 pips. Live and learn.

Hi Johnny,

Is that Bufu_Trend_Signals.v.1.2 that you are using...because all I am getting are yellow lines in it.....while the rest of the chart looks exactly the same as yours....

Looking forward to your reply.

Thanks and regards,

Raza
