{quote} Did you put "m" in experts properties. PairSuffix = "" PairSuffix = m
Ok.......I think it's ok now.
All of the currencies are showing an 'm' after them on the right side of the chart.

Are your IXO indicators on the chart the same ones that the EA is using, they don't agree. The EA says the IXO2 is green and your indicator on the chart is showing it as red.

Yes, that is OK. For an Entry 3 the IXO2 is only looking for the change from one color to the next, once that has passed by one candle the display will change back to gray, this is OK.

In order to do that you would have to put in with the Broker a save stop loss for each pair in the basket with the Broker, as the EA only looks at the entire basket and that can not be sent to the Broker as the Broker isn't watching the entire basket, only each individual pair.

From the chart you posted the EA is displaying the correct colors for the individual HAS, IXO1 and IXO2 for the different type of entries.

HAS = No cross at this pont so it is gray
IXO1 = Red
IXO2 = Red

You need to look at the 3 entry types shown in the example screen shots, some are indicator crosses while others are just direction movement.

Once an indicator gives a cross the cross signal is only present for one candle.
A direction color is present for as long as the color stays the same.

Thanks for the explanation seller9 makes sense now. Just one more question, shouldn't the display say 'Ea active trade' now? Thanks for your help.

Your offline chart is around 15 hours behind, you need to get it to update before the EA will be able to manage it.

Check your chart that you have the offline chart indy on and make sure it is running.
At least open that indy and click OK to see if it will refresh your offline chart.

Last resort try a MT4 restart, did you do that when you first created the chart, sometimes the chart histor for the offline chart is all goofed up the first time.

But you have to get the chart to update.

I saw a 5 pair H1 possible just getting ready to maybe kick off so I took a before and after screen shot to try and expalin what the process the EA is using to open a trade and what the display should look like before and after.

I will try and catch a Entry 2 and Entry 3 trade so I can also get some screen shots ofr everyone to look at.

So far everything is working exactly the way it is suppose to.

This is a Entry 1 trade.

For Entry 1 and Entry 2 the HAS cross is the trigger and it is only present for 1 candle.

For Entry 3 the IXO2 cross is the trigger and it is only present for 1 candle.

Entry 1 = HAS cross and IXO1 confirming color.

Entry 2 = HAS cross and IXO1 and IXO2 confirming color.

Entry 3 = IXO3 cross and HAS and IXO confirming color.

By confirmed I mean the candle has to be closed to confirm its color, the color of the present candle means nothing as it can change back and forth until it is closed.
