Price Bounce Off MA EA

{quote} Hi cyber1 OK thanks. I have attached a chart below. The "X" marks times when I would attach the EA and the circled areas are areas where I would hope it would open a trade. It very often doesn't open any trade and I wondered if perhaps one could change (or remove a line or two) these settings to force the EA to take the trade even if the previous candle (or one before that) had touched the EA envelope: if(Ask<=EMA_0+Envelope_Range*Poin)// current bar touched MA envelope if(Low_1>EMA_1+Envelope_Range*Poin)// closed bar did not touched MA...

{quote} Jerry- There are too many other factors to consider. There is a Time filter as well as a Spread filter. Without knowing your exact settings it will be difficult to say.

{quote} I do understand. Here's an example: I had it set up on XAUUSD the other night. Here's what happened (see attachment statement below). Also can one just add a zero to the SL, TP when trading XAUUSD - because of course a Gold pip is one tenth of a normal pip? The problem is that the EA immediately kept opening a new trade every time when the SL was hit. Completely ignoring the "previous bar touched MA envelope" setting! Here were the settings that I set: extern int TimeFrame = 5;//current=0 , M1=1, M5=5, M15=15, M30=30, H1=60, H4=240, Daily=1440...

{quote} Hi cyber1 Got the price_bounce_off_ma working fine now on Gold - just had to add a "0" to the TP and SL amounts and max spread to 500. I have been testing the FXPT on 1 min charts for a week or so with quite good results! Only problem again is the trailing stop kick-in. For instance, the ea opened a trade yesterday on EURJPY at 130.36 and the price shot down to 130.08 before shooting back up in a hurry! However the trailing stop did not kick in even though I had the " Start Trailing on which bar from Trade Open" set to "0". I had a...

I doubt this is the bottleneck though most likely its the iCustom calls and the CCI nrp indicator. 1.5 meg is not much when you think about it, these days its gigs not megs.The Trailing function would add the Spread to the 25 Trailing and I have modied it to check on EachTick instead of once per bar. And yes it recognizes M1 as it does any other TF. {file}

{quote} Hi again cyber1 I found this one (below) but it only works on the 1 hour tunnel (144,168 EMA) ? The daily vegas is using 24, 28 EMA's - the "risk level 3" fib values are (I'm only interested in the outer fib) ExtMapBuffer6=ExtMapBuffer2-233*Point; ExtMapBuffer7=ExtMapBuffer2-377*Point; ExtMapBuffer8=ExtMapBuffer2-610*Point; {file}

{quote} Hi Cyber1 No problem. I have managed to adjust the "1 hour tunnel" EA to the vegas daily inputs but is there any quick way of modifying it so that one can manually adjust the lots amount and the SL (stop loss) level? It seems to use the MM function to adjust the lots amount and SL level which is not very good! Thanks and rgds

{quote} jmtini- for the Stoploss create new user input named StopLoss Put this just before the Init() function: double Poin; then put this inside the Init() function and before return(0); if (Point == 0.00001) Poin = 0.0001; else if (Point == 0.001) Poin = 0.01; else Poin = Point; then replace all instances of Point with Poin change both lines with the OrderSend() function. and right before add the line as indicated. We're just going to redefine what bottom and top is. Right now bottom is EMA169 and top is EMA144 ​bottom =Ask-(StopLoss*Poin);...
