Hi Seller9, This is definitely nod an ad, it's in response to the problems I and others have been having with the new build 600 platform which has been incredibly annoying to get around. It's just information to help others out.
Sorry, I wasn't looking at your post, my post just happened to come after yours, it was a couple of previous posts that ended up leading to commercial sites where they were selling software or code work for a fee, I just don't want the forum to end up in the commercial section like some others that had some of the same type of posts.

Good Luck and sorry about that.

Seller9, thank you for this EA! It's great, more user-friendly, and more functional than T101's! I really like it. The only thing that keeps me from using it constantly is inability to reverse a 3rd pair. Since i trade baskets of a single currency, my USD and NZD baskets are incomplete without 1 pair in each (and both baskets need 3 reversed pairs to to complete) Is there a way you could add a 3rd reversable pair or tell me how can i do it myself so i don't bother you? Thanks a lot! P.S. Also, as you have asked earlier, i have found a problem. After...
The bad thing about reversing pairs is the chart looks nothing like what you are trading and the EA is using the chart to trade from and is coming up with the wrong answers.

The Robot trades what you have in your list, go back to the EA settings and only have the pair the EA is on as the first in the list and delete the others.

The list should then show only the pair you are trying to trade.

The EA was designed for multipair offline charts, so it may do strange things on a single pair as I have not tested it for that or designed it for that.

Just an update as to where we are on updating the EAs or where we are not.

So far the only thing so far is my head hurts from looking for a solution to the 604 update that got pushed out.

It seems even with building the offline charts with a 509 or 604 basket creator the EAs are unable to retrieve any information from these offline charts when placed on them.

The EAs can be compiled under 509 or 604 and the results are the same, no errors but still can't read values such as Close, Open, High, Low, etc from the charts.

I am still doing some digging into the problem as it seems to be widespread as I have seen plenty of other posts with the same problem.

Old 509 offline charts or new 604 offline charts can not be read by the EAs under the new 604.

Will let you know when a solution shows its head.

yeah it seems fine, the only problem i was having is that it was popping up the alert messages non stop after it opened positions

You don't have enough money(see the logs at journal) - Decrease the lots or open the new account with more money.

EA instantly trying open trades until the number of opened trades/pair don't reach the number of pairs at basket. This is the reason why your platform not responding.

If you correctly followed the videos at 1st post, everything must be working fine. I also had problem with 604, didn't backup 509, downloaded FXCM from here today and it's working fine for me.

Seller is a great guy!!! I am so sorry so I am not a good programmer to help him solve the problem with the new build.

hi seller9 & friends,
MT4 is changing its way toward MT5 so therefore we may have some issues with our current EA & indicators.
but yesterday after struggling several time finally i find a solution to it.

MT4 as they said it have capability to run old EA & OLD Indicators which are compiled under old version(lower versions)
*OLD indicator & OLD EA which are under .mq4 extension will not work under 600,
*therefore please compile your OLD EA & OLD Indicator under old version MT4 only and then move .ex4 extension files to MT4 600)
*but you must have to login to your window as Administrator to run its smoothly (i tested it in window 7 its working)
thanks & regards,
Hukam

If you follow my explanation in platform tech sub forum about zip or rar file of your entirely MT4 build 509 platform folder; then you can try this step if you already 'forced' by your broker to update to MT4 build 600; WHEN YOU DO ALL THIS, MAKE SURE YOU DISCONNECTED FROM ANY INTERNET CONNECTIONS. Go to your C:\\ProgramData\MetaQuotes folder You will find WebInstall folder This is the source of the trouble that will automatically update any attempt to use old MT4 build 509, so just change it name to something else like Unused WebInstall Open your...
Dear dann0000
Can you tell me if we can revers from 600 to 509 again?

Thank you very much for your time.

{quote} Dann0000, On the one of the posts of Seller9, he said we should use build 509. However, I am not sure that it will solve your problem. Also, Seller9 used H1 chart to generate the offline data. I just downloaded the build 509 from x58, see previous posts, and I'm still working getting all the data to create the offline chart. I will post my result when I'm done.
Finally, I got the EA running properly. The trend is in uptrend now, and I opened a long basket. And, it is doing great.

Important Announcement: MT4 update
Dear Valued Client,

MetaQuotes has released their latest update for the MetaTrader 4 Terminal, Build 600. As a result of this update any Expert Advisors (EAs) that you may use may have been affected due to the change of language and the location of specific folders.

In order to minimize any disruption to your trading activities we advise you to save your EAs and indicators to the new folder which is located at: XM MT4 > MQL4 > Experts/Indicators.

The next step is to ensure that your EAs and Indicators maintain compatibility with the new language. To do this you should request the latest version of the source code from your EA provider. However, if you have coded your EA yourself, please follow the steps below:

  1. Launch the XM MT4
  2. On the main menu navigate to Tools > MetaQuotes Language Editor
  3. In the new window that opened, navigate to View > Navigator
  4. Locate your EA and double click on it to access the EA script
  5. Click on Compile from the toolbar. The action will be confirmed by a message in the Toolbox window at the bottom.
  6. When the process is completed, please close and reopen the XM MT4. Provided you encountered no errors, you will now be able to continue using your EA normally.

{quote} Wow, could it be that easy????

no, the code will not compile if it's language is in the old format. you will get multiple compile errors. just switch out your updated terminal for the 509 terminal and you'll be fine. make sure you rename the programdata/metaquotes/webinstall folder before you do this. after that, everything will work fine

I am going to start testing the next version of the Basket EA tonight and see what happens. I have it compiled and running on Build 604 and so far it looks good.
If all goes well I will put together a new video of it showing the exact way MT4, EA and the indicators need to be installed and set up to work properly, I think you will like it, it has some nice new features making it even easier to use and set up.

Just hope no MT4 changes come along to screw it up.

If all goes well it should be out by this coming weekend.

Good Luck
