For some odd reason the Freebie indi is causing my trading platform to hang up. I installed the indi and when I close out my trading platform and reopened it, it become unresponsive. I only have it on one currency pair. It takes a while to load and once I log out and log back in my computer hangs up so i can only use the EA and pivots. Also has the EA placed any trades yet because I have it running on the Eur/Usd and no trades have been placed?

Alright, here is the first official batch of indicators and EA. Please copy all indicators to the /Indicator folder (these are used by the EA and the Indicator) and the EA to the /Experts folder NOTE: For the indicator xm7_FreebieSystem_INI try not to use to many Days input if you are using multiply pairs. You may notice your computer slowing down if say u have the indicator on 12 pairs with input nDays=50. You can try it, just be patient for the each chart to finish what the indicator is asking for. The xm7_pivots by themselves and the EA do not...
Was rule #3 one of dredding82 orginal rules or is it something that is needed for the EA to operate correctly? I was wondering if it could be left up to the trader as option instead.

Yea it has taken 3 trades. 2 for Audusd. 1 for Euraud. I have the EA on 4 pairs.
No not odd, lol. I am working on getting the indi to be less intensive. Try this. On the input set it for 1 day, default is 3. Try that with the indi. Be patient it may take a while To load.

#3 is something I had see on the thread somewhere. If I recall dredding would use the daily range and determine if there was enuf room to trade.In fact in audusd it stopped a trade this morning that would of been a loss.
I will make that an option. Stay tuned. Remember we r in the testing stage. These files I wrote them from the top of my head, so there is room fro improvement.

Thanks and I understand and I am no way complaining but i'm very appreciative for all you do and are doing. I do have one question Since the #3 semafor is at the bottom of the candle on daily chart signifying an uptrend then this trade should have been taking by the EA right.

yep, if the zzDot is at the bottom on the day tf then I would consider that an uptrend. Now the zzDot I am refering to is not for the current day. What I am looking for is the zzDot that is formed after the daily candle is closed. So even if u have a daily zzzDot forming today, that is not what I use, cause u dont know if it will be fixed and not repaint. Yes, true it can repaint later on, but that is what I dont know and perhaps we can get some pips before it changes.
Does this make sense?

don't worry about giving yer oponion. Lol if it is krap then jt is krap lololo

I didn't get any trades today. Are you using the first EA or the second EA xmess7 uploaded? I even have the indi on my chart and I have no arrows.

I have updated the version and don't get arrows either. I did get arrows from periods back but nothing up to date and definitely not with the new version.

Folks what brokers r u using?

@keysharp. That looks about right. Trend is down for the day and assuming all the other rules are met. Then yes a short is valid there.

I will look into the arrow thing. I too am not getting arrows for today. Should of left it alone when it was working lol. That's what u get when u try to add more features lol.

Note: don't put the xm7_pivots on the chart. The EA and the indi should draw them.

Just a thought, if tf D determines the trend then on the 15 min time frame what accounts for drawbacks? Are the SL set too close. The trend was south when my shorts were activated but each time there was a drawback and that activated the SL. Maybe the distance between 15m and daily is too far, could the hourly work better?

Okay here is where i'm getting confused, @keysharp Why did the EA sell when the #3 semafor is still at the bottom candle on the daily EUR/USD chart signifying a uptrend according to xmess7 rules?

Checkz, I don,t know why shorts were taken instead of longs. I also can not tell what rules were followed. According to xmess7, the trades were valid because the daily was showing a down trend. My uneducated opinion tells me that a failed pivot was either missed or ignored. This is on a live account but I am only losing a .03 trade so I will keep plodding along until morning.
The other thing that may or may not be an issue is that I am trading another chart in gold and that is manual.
