Using build 745, broker Oanda. So far the EA is working fine on a manual test trade. Basket creator worked fine also. I just started playing with the EA few days ago so my experience is very limited. I will be doing other tests this week trying to get the hang of this. If I run into any problems I will post them up.

Oh wow. I'm having problems updating from 735 to 745. All my accounts went to Common Error. I can install fresh, but that will mean moving all the EAs, libraries, etc. How can I force an update?

Where to find usage of the EA? Did you try the first post on the first page of the thread? From the looks of your screen capture you need to start at the beginning and read thru everything.

{quote} yes, remove it.
i tried this, stopping the robot first of course, and it still does not come back the same way. bo entry trend line and tp lines are gone, entry arrow is gone, also the other entry arrow is out of place. also in the buttons section instead of it saying 'bo trade' in pink it says 'active trade' in red

one should always leave mt4 on when there is an open trade then? perhaps a vps can be used?

yes, the other things are missed, but, the point is that you steel control the trade, where the base are tp and sl, so in this case you dont need anymore bo lines.

I navigated around the EA settings and changed various enter/exit filters. I know there are many people that use a dashboard to filter by strength manually. Is it possible to set the EA so that it only enters into the trade when the total basket strength is high? For example it would allow the EA to enter trade if the total basket strength was 4 stars, but not less.

Hi Oval,

I think you are asking for too much. The EA as it is, is good enough. EA's are best to be used to manage trades as such you will learn to trade too. Take your time to learn the movements and learn to enter trades manually, in the long run, you will be a better trader and save yourself more green pips. excessive dependence on EA's is not trading at all. LEARN TO TRADE for yourself.

Just a thought.

All the best.

sharemaster2,

Thanks for your response. This EA is fantastic and I would like to thank everyone contributing to the thread. I have been experimenting with both automated and manual trading with this EA. I apologize if I sounded like I wanted to be spoon-fed, it was not my intention. It was just a question that occurred to me yesterday while running automated demo yesterday. I fully understand where you are coming from and appreciate your help. Thank you sharemaster2 and everyone else!

Quick question. On the screen shot the large bull candle went thru my TP line but never triggered the close trade. It has since retreated back down. No big deal as its just a test. I checked my settings and cant figure out why the trades did not close as price was way above the TP line. Can anyone give me a clue what I did wrong.

Edit: Just manually dragged tp line below current price, still basket did not close. As seen in 2nd screen shot. Not sure if I am doing something wrong or maybe robot does not work on newest version of mt4.

The top left EA panel button shows that 'No Auto Trade'.
Means BT EA functions will not triggered until you click that button to 'Trading Live' blue color button appeared.

OK, thank you. I was not auto trading, so thought that did not matter. It was a manual trade, was just using the tp/sl function. From the video it looked like it should work.
