A thread with 30 pages, maybe interesting, maybe not.

I donīt have time nor interest for such a thing.
Why did you ask ?
What do you have in mind ?

I have seen you online and you read this posting but you didnīt answer.
Are you playing games here and if yes: why ?

With this information it is impossible to say anything.
I need screenshot, Journal messages etc.
What is the stop-limit of the broker , how far away did you try to place a pending order ?

Do you think that others are clairvoyants ?
You throw them a piece of information and they should know what you are doing wrong ?

And by the way, fibospirit, you never answered my questions.
Why not ?

Hi Fxtr51,

Can you please make following changes in the engulfing signal.Making this changes make engulfing signal much more stronger.

Bullish Engulfing:

The A bar shold be a bear bar, and the B bar should be a bull bar, whereby the low of the B bar is below the low of the A bar, and the close of the B bar is above the high of the A bar.

Bearish Engulfing:

The A bar should be a bull bar, and the B bar should be a bear bar, whereby the high of the B bar is above the high of the A bar, and the close of the B bar is below the low of the A bar.

Please see the attachment.

Regards,
Bedayan.

Hello, thx for your work.
I have one mention: It would be possible to integrate lot calculator to your buysell line indicator(calculate lot size according to the preferred risk and signal candle stop-loss)??

The Buy-Sell-Line-Indi shows me in pop up alert "Min/Max - Lotsize overruled" in default setting. Now I set RiskPercent to 0. Same message. Whatīs the reason?

If RiskPercent = 0, it must necessarily show "Min/Max -Lotsize overruled" because there is no riskpercent = 0.

If it shows lotsize overruled, you either have the wrong version of the indicator ( only use the one which is posted in the first posting of the thread )
or the calculation must result in that alert because it is the case on the pair you have the indicator attached.

I just tested the indicator and it gives correct lotsize for all pairs.

Hi fxtr51,

First of all, thank you for this wonderful indicator! Everything works like a charm, but I have a question about the lot calculator.

What is the formula of the calculation? I made some manual calculations and I get another result, I downloaded another indicator and it gives me the same result as my manual calculation.

Attached you can see the lot size of the indicator (0.52) and your indicator (0.40), 2nd attachment is my manual calculation in excel (0.52)

Thank you in advance!

Kind Regards,
Diego

You are using equity for calculation.
I am using free margin.

Here is the calculation.
How do you calculate it ?

Inserted Code
//+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
double CalculateLotSize(double RiskPercent,double FreeMargin, double price1, double price2)
{  //Calculate the lot size by risk. 
   if (price1 == 0 || price2 == 0) return(LotSize);//Just in case
   if (FreeMargin == 0) FreeMargin = AccountFreeMargin();
   double TickValue = MarketInfo(Symbol(),MODE_TICKVALUE) ;
   double LotStep = MarketInfo(Symbol(),MODE_LOTSTEP);

   double SLPts = MathAbs(price1 - price2);
   SLPts/= Point;
   
   double Exposure = SLPts * TickValue; // Exposure based on 1 full lot

   double AllowedExposure = (FreeMargin * RiskPercent) / 100;
   
   int TotalSteps = ((AllowedExposure / Exposure) / LotStep);
   double LotSize = TotalSteps * LotStep;

   double MinLots = MarketInfo(Symbol(), MODE_MINLOT);
   double MaxLots = MarketInfo(Symbol(), MODE_MAXLOT);
   
   if (LotSize < MinLots) {LotSize = MinLots; Alert("Min/Max-Lotsize overruled");}
   if (LotSize > MaxLots) {LotSize = MaxLots; Alert("Min/Max-Lotsize overruled");}
   return(LotSize);

}

Aha! Makes sense.

My formula is;

[ Equity OR balance * risk * base currency / 1 or 10 (depends on the digits of the pair) ] / SL (in pips, in other words your range)

Attached my excel lot calculator in case the formula isn't clear.

And here is the link to the indicator I found to verify;

Is it possible to have an option to select which value you want to do the calculations (Balance, Equity, Free margin)? If it's possible that would be awesome!

Kind Regards

Hi fxtr51,

If it's possible, I have one more small request.

The indicator works great for R/R 1:1, but since I now have more confidence using the indicator. I would like to open 2 trades at once, one with 1:1 and another trade with a higher risk reward ratio.

Is it possible to add an option to select the R:R, so that you have a second TP line corresponding to the R:R?

For instance;

Range in pips = 50
opening price = 1.4000
R:R = 2:1

The indicator will show the following;

Opening = 1.4000 (already included)
SL line = 1.3950 (already included)
TP1 line = 1.4050 (already included)
TP2 line = 1.4100 (extra line)

I would really appreciate it, if you could add this extra feature!

Thank you in advance!

Kind Regards
