Can you make another filter which Dimdel use? Maximum size of signal candle: in pips. He use different (something like if candle is not more than two times bigger then previous) but I think filter directly in pips could be good as well. We will see in BT how much is this filter helpful. Thanks.;-)

So, if signal candle is bigger than X pips (user can change this value) than no trade.

I'm similar in thinking to you Dimdel regarding EA's but if I do apply an EA I choose to monitor all its actions from start to finish because mostly I trade manually.

Ok no problem. What you mean with candle - only the body (open to close) or you want to filter out the whole candle inclusive wick (high to low)?

please consider the following requests:

1. is it possible to have it scan multiple pairs to find the setups

2. can we have the ea give us alerts of the setups on s electable time frames..for example if a user desires 1 hour alerts or 4 hour alerts, he would be able to get that

thank you for your valuable time all

No problem. I like your strategy and maybe I can help to improve. I don't have the time to test and find the best way to trade, but maybe I can help with coding to find some improvements. I would also be very thankful if people could backtest and tell us where to pimp the system. Thank you Dimdel for your work

I​ think, it's about Candle size + shadow, the entire candle from High to Low within an exact pip, for example, High to Low a candle must not be exceeded from 50p or something

One problem with EA. Backtest is very slow. If I want to make optimalization for some values it's really for a long long time. I don't know why it need so much time for testing. Maybe the tick function on chart. Can you check what could be the problem? Thanks

The reason why it is so slowy is the trailing stop. The EA calculates the trailing function for each tick. If you dont need trailing I can delete this function and your backtesting will get much faster

OK, could you try to make function that if I set trailing=0 than EA disable it?

Hi,

attached the newest version if EA. Included the function to set the maximum signal candle size and trailing stop deleted to faster backtest. Also I included that the there have to be minimum 2 candels in one direction before the next signal appears.

For example: 1. candle: up, 2. candle : up 3. candle: down = valid sell signal.

it would be not valid if:

1. candle: down, 2. candle:up, 3. candle: down = no valid signal

Next versions will come. Tell me if you need trailing stop.

Hi Klebenny, great work but filter with 123 candle is not in original rules. Can you make option to disable it? From my BT those EAs with 2 or 3 candles are not so profitable. Do you have different BT?

Ok i will give option to enable or disable. No problem. I think the 123 filter is important to filter out ranging days. The next improvement I will try to program is the retrace filter. To set pending order at retrace of for example 20% after breakout.
