The set file is enclosed but I would be looking for a slightly different scenario - that is EMA 5 crosssing above EMA 12 and RSI greater than 50 for a buy, and a reverse scenario for a sell.

Having recently experienced an unusual problem with AT2 I thought it would be useful to document, in case any one else experiences it now or in the future.

I had installed AT2 on 2 PC's, both Windows 10, one worked and the other only partially, in that, I could not get the MT interface (MtApi) to connect. The smiley face would appear and then disappear and notably no Firewall warning.

After help from Dave and knok I installed the latest version of the interface from the author's site and it was working within minutes, just download and install to replace existing interface and place the new EA in the correct MT directory.

One interesting point was that I did still not get the Firewall warning, it worked directly. Whether it was something I had done in my efforts to get it working or it doesnt need it in that version I dont know.

Regards

Alan

Hi, Alan
Thank you for this information. I've used up all of my PMs to Dave, LOL. Don't know how many we're allowed but I'm sure I've used my quota. I am having issues too. I did what you said above and things seemed to process smoother but still not getting the results I'm hoping for. I can not get the companion to connect to Mt4. I get something about DLL's not allowed. I have files under documents and files under MT4 Data File, I don't know if that's confusing it. Before I processed your directions above, when I would run, it asked me to change something, I really didn't understand. I'm on the verge of pasting pictures of my directories to see if anyone can tell what the heck I've done.
I read a post early on that said they hate weekends, I understand this weekend, I want to get this up and running.
Any help is appreciated. Can you click on the attachment?
Rebecca

Hi

Sorry to interfere... l woud recommend you delete everything and restart over again with post 806...
This was the first step to a resolution for me as l had a similar type error with Hajdi...
From there if that works... just follow each post until the last update...
If not... only Dave can solve it...But he will ask you to try this first of all...
Hope this helps

Well, I didn't get very far. I deleted everything and actually went back to post 1 for the link because I didn't think I wanted a prototype. Downloaded AgilityTrader2.zip (last update was yesterday). Placed this file under my documents in its own folder titled 'AgilityTrader2'.
This is a zip file. I clicked on the folder and it took me to one file titled AgilityTrader2 (1466 KB, if size helps to identify it). While running I get this error:
That's where I stand now. Have you seen this?

Did you install previously V1.028 from Alan post...If yes you didn't had to install V1.024...

Anyway l do suggest you uninstall all MTAPI previously installed as it is maybe corrupted now...
When done reinstall it...whatever the version...and try following post 806
Hope this helps

Well....I thought I did all of that. I deleted MTapi from the MT4 folder and my documents AND Program86. I think I'm going to go watch whats going on in Turkey and let me mind rest a bit. Maybe a cup of flavored coffee is in order.
I'll focus again in the morning. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know.

For everybody installing, when you download the zip file at Post #1, it is the FULL installation. If you already have a successful installation, then you just need the latest update of the program file which will be at the link shown on Post #1 as being the latest update (it is at the bottom of list of changes).

If you are doing a fresh full install,

  1. delete the \Documents\AgilityTrader2 directory. That will delete all sub-directories underneath
  2. remove the AgilityTrader2 Program Installation by going to \Program Files (x86)\AgilityTrader2 and running the unins000 program

To install,

  1. when you download from Post #1, place the download, AgilityTrader2.zip into a download directory (not\Documents\AgilityTrader2)
  2. from that Download directory, unzip the file. The file will now be AgilityTrader2.exe. This is the installation program
  3. Run that program and accept the defaults. That will place an icon on your desktop, run the MtApi installation, and open the ReadMe file.
  4. When you click on the icon, or choose AgilityTrader2 from the Start Menu, the AgilityTrader program will run
  5. On first run you will be asked for your registration key. If you leave that input blank, you will automatically be taken to a registration page.

The problem as I see it is that the zip file is not being downloaded into a Download directory. Everybody should have such a directory under their Username.
The ReadMe file needs to being fully read including the procedures for MtApi.

To remove any confusion on the next update, I will rename that zip and the unzipped file to AgilityTrader2Install

Also, what does 'NO DLL ALLOWED' mean?
NO DLL ALLOWED could mean one of the following -

  1. Your anti virus program or another windows security program is blocking the installation. Disable any such program temporarily during the installation.
  2. Expert Advisors are not enabled within MT4 under Tools, Options, Expert Advisors. (see screenshot below)
  3. You may have MT4 running at the time of installation. Ensure that it is not running.

Whilst Post #844 helped Alan, I have not tested it with AgilityTrader and I do know that there is an additional file dependency so my suggestion would be that if you are proceeding with a fresh install, that you uninstall this program as well.

My concern is that you may be complicating the issue by not following the correct procedure. Please do exactly as I detailed in the post above.

We went step by step. disabled virus software. Hubby at my side following every word. Was going just like clock work and then this:
I really think we're getting closer. I feel like now my files are where they're supposed to be. Just gotta get over this one hurtle. Read Me text came up before this warning but all directions were clear.

I did amend Post #853 above so did you enable Expert Advisors as shown in the figure in that post and did you uninstall MtApi V1.028 firstly?

Just a note re my previous post about MtApi version ver. 1.0.28

I tried this because 1.0.24 did not work for me on one PC, I would recommend using it only when everything else works on AT2 except the communication with MT4, in other words the smiley face does not appear or appears then fails.

I still use the original 1.0.24 on the PC I had no problem with.

Cheers

Alan

To Rebecca, sorry I didnt see your post until this morning (UK) hope its going OK now.
