So far I have had 5 trades, 3 winners and 2 losers.
The BEJS is doing its thing and everything looks to be working like it should, just need to refine the settings to maybe avoid the losers. I am just running the default settings.

Here is the screen shot showing the Trades taken and the stop loss and BEJS being moved.

Here are the 2 losers, you can also see them on the charts below.

The next chart of CADJPY does not show the entry because I did a manual entry on this one because I got the EA started late so the Robot missed the entry. So I entered the long trade manually and then set the initial stop loss to 3 pips below the cloud and then let the Robot handle the trade from there on. So you see you can jump in manually and then let the Robot do the rest. Just answer YES when it asks you if you want it to handle the trade. Be sure to set the initial stop loss when doing this in accordance with the rules, in this case 3 pips below the bottom of the cloud, and the Robot will handle it from there. Also be sure to set the Buyer or Seller correctly so it is ready for the next trade after the first one closes.

To let the EA manage the trade, I shouldn't change the MagicNumber setting from the default 0 value, right? I've changed it, and it doesn't ask me about managing the trade if I manually open an order. I did this on purpose, because I trading manually beside this EA. However the EA can identify it's own trades, so if I remove the EA while there is an open trade made by it, and later put it back on the chart it asks about managing the trade (if I set the MagicNumber value to the same as it was, when it opened the trade).

The u7 version working good for me. I'm using another range bar generator as you mentioned it earlier. I1ve changed the 15 pips range bars to 10 pips, and pu the ea on 9 pairs. Today it opened several trades few of them were losers, but overall it's making profit - currently around +180 pips, there are 5 trades open.

If you leave the Magic Number at 0 then it just looks at the Pair Name, if you use a magic number than it will look at it.

Does range bar setting at 10 seem to work better for you? I am still using 15, but haven't compared it to 10 yet.

Its just the name you give it, just don't give it a name the same as a MT4 time frame, like M5, M15 etc. otherwise its just a name so you can find it in the list of offline charts.

Part of the problem is finding the correct range bar script so everyone is on the same page.

I think this has potential because if i am understanding Unimaks comments, just trying to manage the breakout very tightly, hopefully getting small losses with bigger gains.

I would think you do need more flexibility with trading times. I would suggest a minimum of three intervals at least so you can trade the 3 major opening times. Ability to trade a few hours of the Asian, Frankfurt thereabouts to Tokyo close, and of course the major Overlap. Also, different currencies could be set for different times easier, + you need to be able to dodge the news. But the more flexibility the better...

I don't know enough about it to demo it on anything but the default settings, and the trading time is so limited you might as well run it 24 hours.

cheers

Does range bar setting at 10 seem to work better for you? I am still using 15, but haven't compared it to 10 yet.
I don't know if the 10 pip setting or the use of other range bar generating script is better or worse than before. I've made a testing mistake here: changed 2 parameters simultaneously. Btw I can say that these settings workin good for me.

I attach the screenshots about the trades the ea made today. The blue dotted line means long trade, and the red one is short trade.

EUR/JPY: The 2nd entry is made manually, and I let the ea manage it.
EUR/USD: the short trade was opened and closed by the ea. After that the ea maybe got confused when the cloud flipped from green to red and there was no candle closing inside the kumo, and didn't take the trade so I opened a trade manually (it was in 'buying' mode since before there was a short trade closed).

There are 2 open trades made by the ea: USD/CAD and USD/CHF both of them in 50+ pips profit.

All the other trades on the charts are opened and closed by the ea. I've set the jumping stop loss the same on all pairs:
IchiBreakEvenPips: 25
IchiBreakEvenProfitPips: 5
IchiJumpingStopPips: 5
TakeProfitPips: 0

This is the last one (only 7 attachments allowed in one post).

I'm trading these pairs + EUR/Aud but there was no trade on that pair today.
