Kopratasav1.15 Manual basketname input still max 7 characters. Drag and drop still works also. {file} {image} {file}
HP,

...and when I load Sellers BT EA (BT_14_v27) the offline chart created with kopra/basket writer v1.02 stops updating completely... even if I click the chart refresh button nothing happens.
If i have a trade started, I can see the profit/loss updating but the offline chart (on screen) does not update.

Since I've been using your tools and Sellers tools for some months now (without any issues) I'm inclined to say that it's not a problem related to my mt4 platform.

Cheers.

PS: And if I close the chart and restart it again, it opens in the exact same spot... with no updating.

I launched the new kopra ea (with H1 as default chart timeframe) and made a CORE5 H1 chart. But when I change the timeframe to H4 (using the onscreen buttons) and then click "manual" again to create the same chart (but H4) the ea does not work. It just stops and all buttons stop working (manual, reset, timeframes, etc...)

Have a look at the error messages in the Experts tab, i am sure there is one.

When the basketwriter (v1.02) window pops up, I just click "ok" right? No need for any input...

No, no need to.

When I open the offline chart created with kopra ea/basket writer 1.02, the chart seems to update erractically and sometimes stops refreshing for long periods of time (more than 1 minute) and even sometimes stops refreshing, which makes it impossible to trade... The same chart created by other basket writers updates by the second and is a fluid chart. Is the refresh method different than other basket writers?

You are right, i have four baskets open and three are running smooth and one isn't.
No idea yet, have to test.

Closing and opening the chart won't do anything to the history file.
Better to open the input tab of the basketwriter, change nothing and click OK.

OK... doing a test run from scratch.

 

  1. When I load the new kopra ea (v1.15) with the H1 as default timeframe, I get the usual screen, but with the H4 button selected (red).

    1. No errors in the experts tab.
    2. The (reset, news, BS, BM, BC, SS, SM, SC, C5) buttons are working fine
    3. The screen is updating the pair info as usual


  2. As soon as I click a timeframe button the kopra ea stops

    1. I get a "array out of range in Kopratasav1.15.mq4 (2022,37)" error in the experts tab

And it is all your fault by wanting manual baskets.

{quote} Give it another shot. This happened to me once but after that not anymore. The Split C7 as well as dragging the C7 to the buy or sell basket generates the correct names now.
Hi HP, still can't get the name for the offline chart. Tried many many times but still get no name

I didn't change the version because it is more a little step back.

The period buttons are gone from Kopratasa and on starting the basketwriter you have to fill in the basketname and select the charts timeframe.

It is a little concession we have to make to let everything run smoothly.

I hope this solves your problem too positvezero.

HP,

It's a small concession for having things work correctly... no problem!

Thanks!

HP,

Questions/info about the new files:

When I try to click the "Manual" button for a second chart of the same pairs (for another timeframe) the ea doesn't trigger the basketwriter.
I have 2 options:

  1. Rewrite the basket name in the box (even if I use the same name I have to rewrite) or;
  2. "Reset" and go through the selection process again.

It works, but just fyi and future updates.

The offline charts are now refreshing/updating quicker... although they still seem to stall sometimes and then have sudden bigger moves... is the refresh based on the platform used or on what the basket writer determines?

Cheers

First point solved.

Second point it runs on the EURDKK tick and a 2 second timer.

Depending on the size of you basket (# pairs) larger moves within that interval time can happen.
I haven't seen the screen stall yet.
Next Basketwriter i will give you an interval option (in ms) but beware of system overhead if you have a couple of offline charts open.

Ok on the first point.

Regarding the second, ok as well... just needed to understand if it was my mt4 or just the way you've setup the refresh rates.

I remember some time back you mentioned that you were going to start a tool like Seller's basket trader (the ea we still use for the actual trade)... any progress?

I think that you should also consider using your post#1 for putting/updating the latest versions of your tools (and a brief explanation), because I think all newcomer's are having trouble understanding where to start and what to do... there are a lot of tools in this toolbox already!
It's the only explanation (besides wanting a holy grail that doesn't exist) that I can find for the lack of traders stopping and using these tools!!!
They're MUCH better, more logical and more trustworthy than the new dashboards that are appearing everywhere on FF... they seem like mushrooms coming up all over the place!
I just don't get it... holy grail syndrome, maybe?

You're doing an AWESOME job and sooner or later other traders will come to fully understand and embrace the power of what you're providing here...

Keep it up HP and THANKYOU for sharing!

Hi HP, the basket writer can create name now. Very nice.
One thing now, there is no M30.

HP,

Further to my previous post... to see the "stall" I mentioned, setup a C14 offline chart and watch... it doesn't move (only if you click the refresh button).

Cheers.

The max 20 pairs on a 1000ms interval running as smooth as a babies bottom covered in talcum powder with terminal.exe only using 4-7% cpu power and that includes BDM, BTM and kopratasa running.

Don't play Call of Duty while trading !

On the other hand...if you are running the "thirth party" dashboard next to it the core where terminal.exe is running will frequently reach its maximum of 25% (this is a 4 core machine) and skip a tick to two (or more).
Not wanting to be condescending but that thing is totally wrong and will eat a full core just to display values. But at the end that will work itself out during the development process.

Hi HP,

Lightning fast as usual!
Will the 1000ms version be out today? And will I be able to load it over the live trades I have going?

Btw: At this point, the only "non-HP" tool I'm using is Sellers BT_14_v27... And that's just because "someone" has yet to produce a similar tool (don't know who...)
I gave the dashboard hype a go, but prefer to look at charts and decide the trades by myself... hey, but that's just me (I may be wrong)

Cheers!
