{quote} I set my trade from Tokyo and today I used the EA equity lock. I did not set TP or SL. My chart is using H1 TF, only the chart that the EA is placed is M5.
Hi Tundex,

What are the settings for your equity lock?

Hi Tundex might I ask if are you using both Trend Breaker and Super HNG Indicators on 1 hour charts and Magic ball activated and Auto on 1 hour? but if you use trend breaker and HGN indicators, do you upp date its on every one hours? and what is the reason to activate in the EA Pin 1 and Pin 2 and PIn 1 or Pin2 if not use as exit?
Thank you very much for your answer

Initially I use only Super_HnG but on Friday I added TRND_BRK plugin also. I update the Indy any time I feel like, but not every one hour.

As to the reason for using PIN 1 and PIN 2 plugin, based on winforex method, I checked and discovered that sometimes TRND_BRK can go in early before Super_HnG and same for Super_HNG. So I guess having the two can make you to have the best setting take a trade at a particular time.

For now I'm still testing to have the best method to trade and this is still working for now I think.

Seller9 I don't know if its my eyes or a bug. Have you ever noticed that the wicks on the candles in an offline chart sometimes appear without price having gone that far up or down? Do you know why it does that? Sometimes I don't get my take profits hit on the offline chart because price never really touched it but the wicks say otherwise. Appreciate your help
As I have said in the past the wicks are not real and don't take them as being real as they do not represent the real price range, that's why I don't pay much attention to them.

Sorry, I always though you meant you didn't pay attention to the wicks of the HAS candles so you cut them off. I had no idea the wicks on the offline chart were useless.

Out of curiosity, why couldn't we get the candles to have an accurate picture of the wicks too? The wicks would be very helpful in getting an accurate range.

Does the body of the candles in an offline chart represent the true range?

I am thinking along the lines of having a correlated basket that moves pretty much in the same direction and then we can trade the range using an offline chart. Its easier to get a sense of what our take profit can be or maximum stop loss could be if we can see using the offline chart and some range indicators. There is no lagging indicators here. This is us using probability of what could happen in the next bar of our basket.

Look at this indicator below which shows us the open to the high and open to the low in pips. If we could get an accurate picture of what that really is. I think we could get an idea of the pips up and down for each bar. Then we just say well the next bar should move at least X pips up and down and we can maybe take a percentage of that. So we would open two baskets with the same pairs, buy and a sell. Then we would close both at say 100 pips. If we can see that the range up or down was 600 pips for the basket. We could easily take profit at 100 pips. I would probably want to see the data on a daily chart.

Anyone knows why I'm getting "array out of range" while switching accounts? (from demo to real) When switching back to demo, error disappears. I tried forcing loading historical data.

For most trading strategies it is an advantage that the BreakOut indicator shows the same lines until you reload your template or indicator. For trading strategies as described by WinFx it would be nice if the indicators are reset on a regular basis.

In order to experiment I have created a small EA that reloads the templates, at the certain time interval, for all the charts, except for the first one created (the CASINO chart), and the chart that you have put this reload_template EA on, which should be chart that has been created last.

The EA only contains two parameters:

  1. interval_min = the interval between chart refreshes in minutes
  2. template_name = the name of the template to be applied (without the .tpl extension)

In order to use this EA make sure that you have created all the charts. First one being the CASINO chart and the 28 charts for all the pairs (as explained in Sellers video). After that create a new chart. This chart can be for any pair. Attach the reload_template EA to the chart and make sure to set the interval time and the template to be applied.

Some drawbacks of using this simple EA:

  1. If you use the sellers script to change all templates also the reload_template chart will be updated with the selected template
  2. If you have changed the position of breakout lines reloading of the template by reload_template will render that changes undone

Use at your own risk

Hello everybody,
Could somebody tell why the InDx arrows doesn't work on my IC Market platform.
They only show once and that's when I start the platform and then they only stand still unchanged forever.
