Something else I forgot, I have StopLoss5ma set to 20 - will this override UseLastFractalSL or will StopLoss5ma be used if there is no last fractal?
Here is the order of stop losses, the last one used in this list over rides the ones before it.

Seller9, with my current stop loss settings, the EA sometimes puts in a stop loss on a trade and sometimes there is NO stop loss. My settings are as follows:
Tradeperiod H1, FractalCandlePeriod H1
StopLoss 0
StopLoss5ma 0
SLmultiplier 2.0
UseLLHHlast2candlesSL 0
UseLastFractalSL 1
FracOffset 2

I do not understand why sometimes there is no SL, please pardon my lack of comprehension of the system - can you give me an explanation?

I am testing your set file on a live account. for the last 48 hours I had only one trade. I think it is due to difference in time zones. Ineed to test trading hours to my time zone.

Your trading hours are:

Morning 9 - 12
Evening 12 - 19

My time zone is +4:00 GMT. What is your time zone?

Thanks

I've been running 5-10 ma cross with a 100ma trendline for a while. the 100ma helps give the 2ma cross a better hitrate, but i've noticed that longer candles can reach over the 100ma and give false buy or sells compared to where the actual cross happens. If you look at the chart, you'll see the cross way below the 100ma which would mean ignore the buy cross and wait for sell cross, but the candle breached the 100ma and a losing buy was taken. Can we get an explicit cross setting that will ignore the candle and only look at the relation of the 2ma cross compared to the trendline ma?

Nothing to solve. You have entered a Buy trade on those 2 pair.
This is normal

You should have 2 open Buy trades if you have live trading enabled for the EA.

I am getting an error message in Experts tab and the EA is not trading:

2012.04.05 22:32:10 Experts_Tool_Box_V1.08: invalid handle -1 in FileClose
2012.04.05 22:35:10 Experts_Tool_Box_V1.08: invalid handle -1 in FileIsEnding

Does that have to do with me testing ETB 1.05 and 1.08 in different charts but same MT4 installation.

Has to do with the "UseNews" setting, apparently it can't find the file it is looking for or can't open it.

I have created a trade explorer where you can view all my trades. You can access it at:
http://www.forexfactory.com/fxbarwise#48

I only started using this EA from beginning of this week, so you can ignore trades on the explorer prior to this week.
I am still busy tweaking the settings of the etb ea - I am fairly satisfied with the entry rules, still teaking my exits.
Have fun!!
