question seller9 ,

can the ea trade on a normal screen with no indicators loaded on the screen ( m2 range bar screen but no indicators loaded ) , if the indicators are in built in the EA code , then we do not need to load the indicators on the screen and let the EA do the job . only when we need to verify the EA we load the indicators for us to see .

I am thinking if this can be done then it will reduce the processor and memory load and we can make the ea take trade in lot of currency in one go .

please clarify

Hi Seller 9,

This EA is the bees knees. My compliments to you and Unimark

Super directions on setting up the renko charts. The problem I have however is that when seeking to open M20 offline charts, for some currency pairs, I have only data points of below 100. This occurs on both my demo accounts, Alpari and Sig Trader, and with pairs like EURUSD, GBPCHF, AUDNZD to mention just a few.

I would appreciate your help in resolving this

As per the document, do I need to keep open the 1M Chart also along with M20?

@seller9 there is still one grey area in the Cloud SL management that is in the chicken neck area of the cloud , we will come to that once the present one stabilises. This is at the initial cloud sl settings when it is set for the first time. There is a small bug we will revisit this later after the release of the current version.

You need more M1 data. With your M1 chart open press the Home key until your finger gets tired or no more data is downloaded. If this is still not enough go to Tools, Options, Charts and increase the Max bars in history and Max bars in chart. This can go up to 500,000 or more, but will probably slow up your MT4.

we need to counter the chicken neck zone of the cloud in the EA program , This is a bug in the initial cloud SL setting .

I have attached the pic so that we can use the weekend to counter this problem.

This bug forces you out of a winning trade and makes it a losing one . although the trade goes on to be a winner later.

The rule should be SL below the cloud and minus 3 pips ( user defined ) ( this is for cloud SL initial setting )

All you need are the range bars to get the bar values from, nothing else is needed, they are just for looks and confirmation to see if EA is working correctly. The Ea calculates all the ichimoku information it needs itself.

This was another question I was going to ask and maybe would help that problem.
Question: On what bar or future bar should the SL be based?

At the present time the SL is placed below and then jumps to the top all based on the cloud at the present candle. How about if we use the values of the cloud all the way to the right (Future Cloud)?

So if your cloud settings were 9/26/52/1 we would use the 26th bar to the right or the farthest one to the right.

That wont solve the problem as you can see from the chart if we set it to the 26th future candle , it would have triggered the sl .

we need to find the future cloud's lowest value and set is 3 pip below it . and there should be no value below this, we can scan the future cloud 26 values to find the least one and set the cloud sl 3 pips below it. just the opposite for a sell trade. this will solve the problem .

OK, will do it that way and give it a try.

Sir,

Thanks for this.
I got a tired finger. This spurred me to a work around.
I think I have found the answer in Steve Hopwood's forum at:

The pop up is already there and should be working when a trade is signaled.

You also have the following.

Not much to report, seems everything I have the EA on is in a up or down trend and above or below the cloud at this time, they will probably all break through at the same time.
