Isn't it nice when the stacks get a nice little move ??

John, this is using your settings except I changed the TrailingStop and StackStep to 15 pips each.

Enjoy...

I'm so envious. Not working on mine and I have several 50+ pips trades now, none of them with stacking, BE or JTS.
I'll load the test EA on more than one chart, let's see how it goes.

That is one great shot. I did not get that trade on either one of my live brokers. Must have been differences in broker or data feed of computer. But i have had other stacks like on Eurgbp or Nzdusd, or Audusd.

Just checked, I'm pretty sure I have the latest test EA, but I'll double check later on tonight when I ma home.
Placed it on another chart, it doesn't print the ticket number like the first one did, GU trade is at 38 pips, no BE or JTS were triggered.

Reamasesa:
The Last Test EA will print the openPrice and initial and current Profit (in pips) that is used to calculate the Break Even level.
If it is not printing that info then that means that the test EA is not getting into the BE function, which is what I expect since u are not getting anything like that.

BTW does the same thing happen (which is nothing) when u use the latest EAs?

Hi,

If by "same thing" you mean the EAs not going into Be, then yes


500+ pips, I'd hate seeing it goes to waste but it is demo and we are making progress.
Oh! and I want stacking, toooo!!!!!!


Seriously, we've come a long way, my friend and these EAs are maturing quite nicely.
Thanks for all your efforts.

gianniko!! Good to see you.. long time no see!!

Which of the 3 EAs would u like to see do that?? I thought about that once. Let me look into it to make sure that all the indicator values can be collected from one point. You see, we use a very special secret set of indicators that require special secret attention LOL !! Just joking .

Just be aware that the 3sema takes some memory. I have cut it down as much as possible so it won't hog the memory. That would be my concern cause if u are scanning 30 pairs that is 30 times whatever the 3sema indicator has to be calculated... So the new multiPair EA could be slowwwww lol

Pazharris:
Do you have the Use_ATR_StopLoss=True ?? I can't see that in the Experts message cause the input settings string gets cut off at " ..TakeProfit=0;U" . See the U ? LOL thats the beginning of Use_ATR_StopLoss, so I can't see what it is equal to. You need to have StopLoss equal to some pips, it cannot be 0 or, you can set Use_ATR_StopLoss=true. I think you have it set to true cause the EA would of been sending u Trade Errors due to no StopLoss. You should also have gotten a message about either the 0 StopLoss or no setting the Use_ATR_StopLoss. I just saw the code and I must of changed the logic when I added the Use_ATR_StopLoss input. That fix will be upcoming in a new update.

What broker are u using?

Update EAs

The EAs now can correctly calculate the beginning week balance, even if you already have open trades. This week I had two open trades from last week.
When I looked at the Overall Week Profit, the number was not correct, in fact once the trades were closed it jumped to something that didn't make any sense.

The EAs now take into consideration if there were trades open and makes the necessary calculations to get the true starting week's balance. This of course helps the accuracy of the percent Profit for the week.

As always all latest versions can be found at http://xm7.info/ea/freebie

  • Jun 19, 2016 9:33pm Jun 19, 2016 9:33pm
Folks:
The last upgrade didn't work. Please use this update. What this one does is if you leave any trades open over the weekend it will assume that you are not going to use the WeeklyProfitTarget. So the EA will ignore the target leave it up to you to close the trades, manually, via TrailingStop, etc etc. Profit BE and BE lock will still work.

If you use the previous EA, the trading operation is not affected however you will possible see larger negative numbers for the weekly percent profit only if you already had previous open trades from last week. As long as there are no open trades from last week the previous version will operate normally.

Report from last week.
Last week my Oanda live account took a 1.7% loss. No biggy. Considering what was going on it did very well.
This week we have the Brexit thing going on. Lets see how we do this week...

Good luck to all.
Jess

Hi,

Looks like the last update sorted out the JTS issue, still keeping an eye on it, though.
I woke up this morning and there were no stack trades even though I've had trades with 200+ pips.
I also found these in the logs, I think, with all due respect to the test we are doing here, that it's time for me to change my broker. This is nuts.

I respect you so I will swallow my snug comment, X

It traded well last week and nothing changed on my platform. Both EAs opened new trades this morning but not all of the trades got opened, also, BE, is again, not working on the trades that were opened.
I read somewhere that RoboForex is not so good for EAs, I'm back with HotForex now so I'll open a new demo account for 3C and Boloso next week (nearly at the max allowed number of demo accounts with HF, I'll be clearing one demo account by next week so I'll have something to work with).

Once I move out of this broker, we can tell if it's EA or broker. I vote for the latter


On a side note, EURGBP was the winner on both EAs for me, and I mean a Winner with a capital W. I'll post my statistics later on when I am home again.

Perhaps RoboForex is disabling trades due to the Brexit??
I don't know it that is factual but it is a coincidence that this is happening this week
