hey carl..... i've written a whole pack of those..... some were indicators, some were ea's, some were simple graphs and some were extremely complex.... so not sure which one your referring to....

try this one below, it's an indicator so blank out the chart before applying... it should pick up the 'ecn' suffix.... let me know.....h

Hi hayseed, Thank you very much for your reply. It is better is I can close last open order first. Lifo basis.

hey iresh.... matias romeo's close all script should work.... it's a script so it goes in the scripts folder... test it on demo first to verify.....

this script is not 100% reliable for anyone under nfa rules in the states.... we fall under fifo.....

we must close the oldest order first, but you can not just simply select the oldest order and expect it to be the correct order to close..... it's possible to get the fifo error with the oldest order.....h

Hey hayeed. Thank you very much. I'll use & let you know how it works. I think nfa rules are good for traders. even-though I am not under the nfa rules, I also like to follow them.

The reason I am particularly interested in the static 3s on Semafor is because I can see clearly how much the market retraced before making a higher high when looking back on my offline charts.
//----

hey fxtrader.... i'm knee deep in diesel motors right now so did not have time to test this on offline charts..... it should work on standard charts....

the zigzag is my favorite and most widely used indicator.... virtually every ea of mine uses it in some manner.... but i'll be the first to say , use it with extreme caution....

did not have time to correct the common 3 level semaphore's code.... so just wrote a new one...... uploaded to post 1....

be very careful with large value zigzag's such as the 3's..... very very careful.....h

hey thalaton.... just noticed your post..... i was holding thinking that the eurusd would fall far enough that any 4hour reversal would not reach them.....

we should be approaching a time where a single trade can double the account.... this can best be done by holding on for the 4 hour retraces as they occur during the weekly and monthly move.... you ride out the 200 pip retrace while focusing on the 3000 pip monthly target....

there will be half a dozen 4hour zigzag retraces in every weekly zigzag leg..... when you move to the monthly charts, the average 4 hour retraces seem hardly worth a bother....

the china syndrome will keep the markets on the edge of their seats for sometime to come...... that small exit door can be hard to find in a panic..... 3 or 4 times the monthly atr in a single day is very possible......h

Hello Hayseed,

with oanda did it happened to have a just a losing streak, or you got the feeling there is stop loss hunting +/- slippage

Thank you.

Hey hayseed..

Its been a while since you clocked in to FF..

I'm hoping everything is okay your end ?

//----

Hello

Where have you been, is everything ok? your accounts are unattended to, are you ok? i really hope youre ok, ive been really worried and this is very strange,
//-----

hey everybody, yes all is well here.... called back to work last year

so forex was put on back burner....

for some reason both oanda explorers were reporting incorrectly... in real life, one account is up 22% and the other account has lost 8$ and 15 cents... tried all morning to set things straight by restarting from accounts opening but now they won't even connect....

too busy to deal with it now so gave up.... will try again later....
//-----

someone asked for facebook link, it's not something i really do but perhaps should..... added link in profile..... will answer pm's next week....

promise to make up for lost time.....

......h

//----
//----

hiked blood mountain, tallulah gorge and amicola falls last week..... tuphf tuff....

after hiking all the way down tallulah gorge and then up the other side only to have to retrace those same steps back to my truck, any dreams i every had of hiking the appalachian trail vanished.....h
