Hi guy`s i`m trying all weekend the get my charts the same as seller9! I downloaden the same indicator RenkoRangeBarsV1.2R_KG! But when i run it my metatrader doesn`t work anymore! I tried a few other renkorangebar scripts, but with no succes!

Rob, don't ask me why, but you cannot generate Renkp charts on the weekend when you broker does not have a live feed going. Wait until Sunday night and RenkoRangeBars should work.

Rob, with respect to your problems loading the templates that seller9 provided in the zip file, I would suggest that you make sure you are runnung the latest MT4 Build -- I believe it is stillBuild 409. Seller 9 most likely compiled his .exe files using Build 409. If are running an ealier build than the files were compiled under, it is unlikely that they will load.

I want to make sure that I am following the right steps for applying the range bar.
1) OPen 1 minute chart
2) Add range bar script
3) open offline chart through "file/Open Offline'
4) apply the ichimoku EA to the offline M2 chart.

Also once I go through these steps the 'Ask line and Bid Line' do not move. It is an offline chart so how do I use the EA to the live feeds.

Thanks

RenkoRangeBarsV1.2R_KG! this is an INDICATOR so put it in the indicators folder. it's not a script.

I have added as an option in the next version your idea of trying to pick a clean candle by the amount of movement it has already gone. This will give you the option to select what per cent of the range bar you want to declare a clean candle once this value is reached. So if you are using 15 pip range bars and set this setting to 0.5 (50%), when the PA moves 7 pips in the right direction it will open a trade, this would be on any candle after the one that closed outside the cloud.

I was looking through some charts and I don't know how well this...
clarification , seller9 , our ichimoku_u1 version is a opening trade on the opening of the next candle post the clean candle. This was tested last week .

what we are trying to achieve here is suppose the breakout candle is not clean then it continues to search for a clean candle till it gets one on either side ( buy or sell) to open a trade. and also to determine a candle to be clean while it is forming to fire on the candle which is being formed. ( just fine tuning to get the entry on the clean candle itself rather than on the next )

please let me know if this is possible. otherwise we should move to the portion where we move the sl as the trade progresses .

we will do a scalp version , unlike this one which is for normal trade. The scalp version will have a tighter sl and near zero tolerance to loss.

The version U2, which I have started testing should do what you stated, I need to run it for a few days to see if it takes trades and how it responds. So far I saw one pair have an alert that it was searching for a clean candle, but it then closed back into the cloud so the search was stopped and now it will wait until it gets a close outside the cloud so it can start its search again. Not enough activity at this time to tell much, will see what hapens when London opens.

I had one trade last night on my test version u2 (Not published yet) and it worked out OK for a winner. My BE/JS may hav been too close as it took me out, but thats Ok as it was a winner and at least went into profit. Looks like I had the BE go first when in profit 25 pips setting the SL 25 pips back for a profit of 5 pips. Then the JS kicked in when the price moved another 5 pips into profit. So the price then retraced and hit my SL. Will see how it goes after a few more days of testing.

Hi Seller9,

Very impressed with this EA and the ETB. I would like to add a more dynamic money management scheme to this process. I have coded a money management module based on the DDSMM money management scheme. It is very good at making strategies profitable using money management and I have been putting it my EAs that I have been testing. I would like to be able to add the module to your EA if you I could, so that I could get a more dynamic lot size. Please let me know if this possible.

Thanks - TCO

unimak is the one you would need to contact as he is the one who is leading the way.

He is using the KISS approach.

I just follow his lead.

The original ichimoku EA is listed under the paper clip, you could add it to that one. This version is just a stripped down version of that one, leaving just the Kumo Break Out.

Hello,

I have been reading through the whole thread and tried upgrading the indicators, experts etc as written in the thread... but am still not able to have this ichomoku thing running on the range bars.

If you don't mind could someone please quickly summarise how to make it work.

I have the m2 offline chart working ok and can also load the 'rangebar_script.tpl' or 'ichimoku_ea.tpl' but I think I am making some error in placing the indicators, experts in right folder.

Any help would get me on right track and I hope to add to the thread what all I can...

Regards
Fellow Learner, Trader

All help humbly accepted , as of now we don't want to deviate from what we are presently developing, so there are 2 options, you can add your module to the ea given in my first post and contribute as a separate version , or you can contribute the code to seller9 , and we will use the code provide we find a fitment to it in the current development.

It was close, 1 pip above cloud.

Testing some settings of a SL that moves to the opposite side of the cloud after a set number of pips of profit and then continues to follow PA as profit increases by a set amount of pips.
