I believe I have the bugs all out of NoLagAlerts indicator. version2.2 It has the option of turning Alerts/Messaging on or off. version2.2 It has the option to set the distance from the high or low price that the arrow will appear. version2.2 It has the option of imputing how many bars you want to look back for Alert Arrows to save resources. version2.2 The Alert Arrow will move to the proper bar if it meets the definition of an updated trigger bar. version2.2 As usual, please let me know if there are any bugs or questions, and you can always PM...
Well done. Was actually looking to do this myself.

Chill out dude! Kosmo has been around this thread a long time and knows what this strategy is all about.

Post 1434 - Held it. It touched 1.272 where my target was, but didn't close. I held even though it retraced a fair bit down to the 38.2. I held (though was freaking out at the same time) and let it run while I slept. Then it ran up thankfully. Went way passed the 1.618. Will continue to analyse whether it goes up to 1.618 or 1.272 most of the time. Will help with targets.

Post 1435 - AN - I closed this morning Melbourne, Aus time. The market ranged while I slept. I closed at 40c gain. I dunno how to show pips or points? The history won't allow me that option? If anyone could help show me how to show pips or points on mt4 account history, that would be great.

Post 1436 - EJ - below is my original before going to sleep.

Below is waking up this morning. Luckily I had put a target, otherwise I would have most likely been at a loss. Goes to show you shouldn't be greedy as a lot of people have been saying on this thread. I saw the market ranging, so I decided to put target on top part of bollinger.

Post 1438 - AJ - This was one where I tried the 15 chart. Had my target at 1.272 level. Before going to sleep it was at a down trend. While I slept, it hit the 38.2, then further down to 23.6, then it retraced up passed the 127.2 and just under the 161.8, then at the end went passed the 161.8

Could have got more pips, but once again, there will be another day to grab more pips as many people on this thread have said. Seems like many great opportunities every day.

On top of last night's trades, I had put in orders which I don't have charts for sorry. Some hit while I was sleeping. I left them open because I was fairly confident they would hit. And even if they retraced further, I was happy leaving my orders there as it seemed like a resistance or support line. So if it went passed that line, I figured it would be a good time to get into market. I was stressing a bit before going to bed as my 10$ target was almost hit, then in 1 minute, half of it was wiped, and then before I went to bed it was at a small negative balance. But when I woke up, green pips galore =D Better than what I had expected. I don't know how many pips cause account history doesn't tell me sorry.

Its been maybe four days to a week trading this strategy? The last two days have been great. My first few days were in loss. But I have made up all the losses and gained even more. The key for me atm is to make room for stop loss by marking it at previous major low, and to set up your targets (for me it depends on what the market is doing. For ranging I have bollingers to help me. For others I use fibonacci lines). My stop losses have been as high as 5% of my balance, but they are mainly 2-3% of my balance. I think its best to avoid the 5% ones haha.

Thanks again Lebaneese for this strategy. God bless you for sharing this.

Again great job, especially for the arrow moving to the proper bar. And thanks for sharing the basket manager EA, I find it very useful.

{quote} Fantastic post. I appreciate what you are doing here for everyone. Since you and others have been truly remarkable with programming these indicators I wonder if there was a script that would help place a stop order with predefined LOTs a few pips above the high or below the low. With hotkey "cntrl B" or "cntrl S" we could set the trades up instantly. If there was a way to "cancel the pending" in case the color changes (perhaps we could click on the chart set the hotkey to cntrl C or something to cancel the orders on that chart alone)....would...
Joe I've already put together the scripts and you can find them at post 545. I use them for all my trades and they set the Magic Number (11699) and Trade Comment (NonLag Basket) up for the Multi Purpose Basket Manager that you can find at post 398.

Thank you, John.

A few words of general reflection (to whom it may concern).
It's not about the strategy, it's about the attitude; whether one's willing to make the effort and appreciate what others freely share, or not.
I've been a member of FF for nearly three years, starting from no knowledge of forex. For the first two years, I spent many hours every day, studying everything I could find on the subject (still constantly learning something new).
I've been lucky enough to make friends with many experienced traders here, and learn from them - through my own research and analysis - not by beeing spoonfed.
Now my live account is consistently green and my head at least a little wiser than at the beginning of this journey. Yet, my ignore list is empty.
But I can guarantee that after three years on FF, with such attitude as presented by mrhigurashi, his/her head (not to mention the account) will still be empty, yet his/her ignore list - full.
mind over matter

Well at least I am catching all the minor bugs on the NoLagAlert indicator.

Version 2.4 corrects a small calculation quirk. Don't forget that you need to have the nonlagdot indicator from post #1 installed on the chart.
