Although there did not occur any errors on my platform, I made a small change in the breakeven/jumping-stop functions, not sure if it helps.

Further I have attached a ma-filter (default: enabled). This should prevent to open sell trades if bid>ma (and vice versa). If there are open sell trades and bid becomes > the ma, the trades should be closed (buy vice versa).

I have changed the tdi and stoch settings (for the original settings see the hints in the ea) so that should work well on H1 timeframe, that is the timeframe I am currently testing the ea (pls. see also the screenshot, no errors until now)

attached version 1.3a
(if not downloaded yet, find the required indicators in this post: http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...15#post7537015 )

Dear Fxdaytrader,

I have tested older version and latest version and found that both are not showing almost same result in spite of setting is made to produce same results.

I am attaching back test report for both.

It might be possible that Tdislope filter(dTradeSignalLine0>dTradeSignalLine1 for BUY or dTradeSignalLine0<dTradeSignalLine1 for Sell) is missing in new version.

Yes, there is something commented out (not by me):
for buy: ((dRSIPriceLine0-dTradeSignalLine0) >1.70)

The logics (sell vice versa):
dRSIPriceLine0 > dTradeSignalLine0 AND dRSIPriceLine1 < dTradeSignalLine1
this is commented out (by me): dTradeSignalLine0 > dTradeSignalLine1
(Wanted to test without this, but I forgot to enable it again).

I could enable it (and/or make it optional). Should I do that? This stuff also ((dRSIPriceLine0-dTradeSignalLine0) >1.70) ?

ok, the code to check for signals is as follows now:
LONG:
if ( (!UseTDI||(UseTDI&&dRSIPriceLine0>dTradeSignalLine0 && dRSIPriceLine1<dTradeSignalLine1 && dTradeSignalLine0>dTradeSignalLine1)) && (!UseStoch||(UseStoch&&SmaVal>SmaVal1)) && (!UseOpenClosePricaAction||(UseOpenClosePricaAction&&iClose(Symbol(),0,i)> iOpen(Symbol(),0,i)))/*&& ((dRSIPriceLine0-dTradeSignalLine0) >1.70)*/)
return(SIG_UP);

SHORT:
if ( (!UseTDI||(UseTDI&&dRSIPriceLine0<dTradeSignalLine0 && dRSIPriceLine1>dTradeSignalLine1 && dTradeSignalLine0<dTradeSignalLine1)) && (!UseStoch||UseStoch&&(SmaVal<SmaVal1)) && (!UseOpenClosePricaAction||(UseOpenClosePricaAction&&iClose(Symbol(),0,i) < iOpen(Symbol(),0,i)))/*&& ((dTradeSignalLine0-dRSIPriceLine0) >1.70)*/)
return(SIG_DN);


edit: attached version 1.3b also (mod. tradinghours-stuff, etc.)

Well, manoj, how does it perform in walk forward analysis? Without good results from such tests, you may just be looking at curve fitted data.

I agree with you.I have put ea for forwardtest and will update weekly.There is no trade till now. We have to give time to ea for any conclusion on forward test as ea is taking avg 2-3 trades per week.I have feeling that this will generate good results in forward test also as it capitalise on profits when market is in strong trend so as to overcome loss of choppy markets.I have modified TMS to fit to my personality using daily stochastic for manual trading.Then it has been further modified to make it more mechanical for ea.

That is one problem when working with higher timeframes: Live testing takes time. Good luck with the forward test.

Dear Fxdaytrader,

Is it possible to add angle filter to green tdi. If angle of green tdi and vertical line is less than 30 degree then only ea takes trade. If this can be possible then it can help ea to pick good trades.

Thanks
Manoj

the iCustom-call for the tdi is:
Inserted Code
dRSIPriceLine0=iCustom(NULL,0,TDI_INDI,TDIRSIPeriod,TDIRSIPrice,TDIVolatilityBand,TDIRSIPriceLine,
                       TDIRSIPriceType,TDITradeSignalLine,TDITradeSignalType,4,i);     // Green line
  dRSIPriceLine1=iCustom(NULL,0,TDI_INDI,TDIRSIPeriod,TDIRSIPrice,TDIVolatilityBand,TDIRSIPriceLine,
                        TDIRSIPriceType,TDITradeSignalLine,TDITradeSignalType,4,i+1);
                        
 dTradeSignalLine0=iCustom(NULL,0,TDI_INDI,TDIRSIPeriod,TDIRSIPrice,TDIVolatilityBand,TDIRSIPriceLine,
                           TDIRSIPriceType,TDITradeSignalLine,TDITradeSignalType,5,i);  // Red line
  dTradeSignalLine1=iCustom(NULL,0,TDI_INDI,TDIRSIPeriod,TDIRSIPrice,TDIVolatilityBand,TDIRSIPriceLine,
                           TDIRSIPriceType,TDITradeSignalLine,TDITradeSignalType,5,i+1);
TDI_INDI is the name, it is defined in the header:
Inserted Code
#define TDI_INDI "TDI Red Green"

I think it makes more sense to modify the tdi-indicator, this will prevent the ea from too many icustom-calls (which would make it much slower)

I am not sure if I will have a look also, ...

e.g., this looks interesting: http://forum.mql4.com/5672
