Seller9. Been following your new thread with interest, and wish you success. I made a very simple addition to IXO indi to add the "BoxSize" to the IndicatorShortName so that the BoxSize appears in the Indicator Window. I also set the default BoxSize to 2260. You will find it attached as v1.1.

Good trading!

Thanks for your prompt answer Seller. HAS has now changed colour and the EA entered automatically into sell mode. My only issue is that no TP has been fixed, although I got HASIXO1OnlyTPpips set to 300 in the EA properties.

Any clue ?

Can you shown a screen shot?

Did IXO2 happen to also change color? The TP only works if only IXO1 changes, mine worked OK as you can see in the chart I posted.

Also check your objects list and see if it list a "HTP" line, maybe your pip factor needs to be changed and it put it where you can't see it.
pipsmulti = 100;

Hi Seller9, just wanted to thank you and let you know that your work is appreciated! However, the EA seems to have gone into a loop of death on my demo! Is it because my broker is an ECN? I couldn't see an option for this in the settings? Thanks {image}
Turns out I needed to add a full stop to the Pair Suffix, all working now. I've opened a manual sell basket, better late than never!

All Brokers Data is not the same.

I am using a HAS of 2,15,2,20 which makes a little difference with the HAS, (makes mine slower) than 2,12,2,20, but your IXO1 is also still green, just different Broker Data.

IXO2 has not changed colour yet and no HTP line listed. pispmulti =100 (note that I have a 5 digit broker). Here is the screenshot:

Do you have something else running on your system?

If the EA had taken that trade either auto or manual it would have placed a yellow vertical line on your chart at the trade point a long with an arrow and the smiley would have turned yellow, there is no way the code in the EA will bypass all these things and take a trade, they are all in sequence.

Too many things say this EA did not do this and I have never seen anything happen even close to what you are showing.

You took a Sell Manualy, it will change to smiling face after clicking another time on the blue button
the button will then indicate "Trading live" with a smily and hopefully execute all the other trading conditions as well.

I was not home to open the positions. When I checked, all short trades were already opened and showing the straight face.

When a trade is open the Happy Face will always be Yellow until the EA closes the trade, then it will switch back to Green.
If you do a manual close then it will switch to Yellow and stay Yellow until you click the Blue button.

I turn off the wicks because the EA doesn't use them and they change color sooner and just confuse matters when looking at a chart.

My 5 pair setup looks like it will be the next hour before the HAS is confirmed, as I only have 1 red HAS block so far and it has not been confirmed until the candle closes.

My 14 paair is still open and has been ranging.

OK. I closed all trades and opened a new basket manually. I then got the yellow smiley and the yellow vertical line (see screen shot), but still no TP line. Then, If I press the STOP button to access the EA properties, when I exit from properties, the smiley would turn green and the vertical yellow line disappear. Probably this is what happened yesterday on the automatic trades.
