Thanks for the alert.

RSI logic is built into the EA and I had been using RSI parameters at the time.

V2.02 returns the Variable Range variables but is unchanged from the previous build apart from the inputs. Those inputs trade or scan for RSI moving though lower and upper levels and can be used as well as Variable Range Breakout.

Thanks you for your sharing Dave, i have tested your ea for two week always with the last version but i have no trade (for auto mod). Also in scanning mod when i click to a trade, when one appears (i see your video) nothing happens. I allow all in my terminal (dll, url, autotrade). I have doing backtest and optimaze like your video and my autotrade and scanning mode are in green in yours ea. Do i something wrong ?

There are a number of points in your message.

  1. The EA has only been released for 1 week.
  2. From your enclosed screenshot, you are not using the template correctly. Maximize the chart, then load the template file. If your price graph is showing, right click on chart properties and ensure the chart is set to plot in the background. Only then, when everything is black, load the Expert Advisor. There is no use loading the EA and then maximizing the chart because the presentation will appear like your screenshot.
  3. In your screenshot, the Auto Trade button is not clicked and that would mean no auto trades are taking place. Just be aware that the default settings only provide for trading within 1 hour each day. If no trades take place from your scanner, check your journal. Most probably your lot size is < .01 ($500 is the minimum equity with 2% risk)
  4. If you want to test the auto trade immediately, just change the parameters to the current hour. If the price moves outside the range, trades will take place. Also you can use an RSI strategy (the logic is built into the EA) and I have enclosed a set file. (Rename to .set)

Hi Dave.

Results generated by back test are based on 3 months of trading or one week (5 days) ?

Hi Dave,
Thanks for the ongoing developement.
Does the backtest/optimization factored in commission?
Thanks

Hi Dave, Thanks for the ongoing developement. Does the backtest/optimization factored in commission? Thanks
I have allowed a standard 2 pips spread. This may not be enough on the exotics but is sufficient on the standard pairs including commission.

Hi Dave!
Thank you for an interesting system. I insert it into the terminal and made optimization. I set the best setting in the adviser and included Auto trade. Transactions open but for some reason, not all orders appear in the "Open Orders". Attached is a picture of a terminal. In this case the order is open and it is not in the window. In other situations, one order is opened and there is a window, and the other an open warrant for another currency pair in the window does not appear. ???
Sorry for English, translated Google translate.

I became aware of a potential problem yesterday. Would you be kind enough to investigate whether this will fix your problem and advise.

I am passionate and I feed off people who are interested. Just wait for Agility Trader 3. I wouldn't be programming if I wasn't encouraged. Thank You.

Hi Dave

Enjoying your EA ... when in scanning mode I experience multable entries per pair,
if i were in auto trade mode this would not be the case I assume?

Yes. That is correct.

Every time a new bar is generated within the designated timeframe and a signal is valid, there will be a new advisory. In the auto trade mode, no new signal is generated while a trade is opened.

Hi Dave.
I put the new version, but nothing has changed! A warrant was displayed, and the other not.
