Let me know how this turns out for you
I exported data from EURUSD,M5 to a XLS (attached below as a ZIP) and tested your idea, across 1313 trades between March 23, 2016 and Dec 6, 2016.

 Without allowing for any spread/commissions, I got 616 wins, 690 losses and 7 breakevens for a win rate of ~47% and a net loss of 970 pips.

 Allowing 1 pip per roundtrip trade for spread/commissions, I got 545 wins, 768 losses and 0 breakevens for a win rate of ~41.5% and a net loss of 2283 pips.

Hence I'd be interested to know how you obtained your win rate of 87%. Otherwise I don't think it's worth writing an EA.

Of course all of this assumes that I understood your strategy correctly, and that there are no bugs in my hastily constructed XLS.

[EDIT] I found a glitch in the data. Data was missing between April and October, but this doesn't invalidate the win rate.

Anyway, I re-ran the test, using data from a different br0ker server. This time I got 5375 trades between Jan 25, 2016 and Dec 6, 2016.

 Without allowing for any spread/commissions, I got 2560 wins, 2783 losses and 32 breakevens for a win rate of ~47.6% and a net loss of 594 pips.

 Allowing 1 pip per roundtrip trade for spread/commissions, I got 2227 wins, 3148 losses and 0 breakevens for a win rate of ~41.4% and a net loss of 5969 pips.

The XLS/ZIP file was too big to upload.

Interesting that the win rates were almost identical to the previous test. With an edgeless strategy, one would expect a win rate of ~50% before costs, which is what we get. I'm always reading that the best strategies are simple, but I disagree. I ran this test to satisfy myself that a strategy as simple as this would be unlikely to deliver any kind of systematic profit, given a reasonable size data sample.

[EDIT2] I ran another test, this time on USDJPY. I got 5396 trades between Jan 25, 2016 and Dec 6, 2016.

 Without allowing for any spread/commissions, I got 2658 wins, 2706 losses and 32 breakevens for a win rate of ~49.3% and a net loss of 29 pips.

 Allowing 1 pip per roundtrip trade for spread/commissions, I got 2445 wins, 2951 losses and 0 breakevens for a win rate of ~45.3% and a net loss of 5425 pips.

The XLS/ZIP file was too big to upload.

Again, a win rate of ~50%, and a significant net loss overall, after costs are applied.

Thanks but I want this EA to perform only "Order Management" and "Advanced Order Management" with the code of all other functions excluded as this can make a good trade manager EA.
I tried to do it but can not get it to work with Magic Number Function.

I'm sorry, but you'll need to find a programmer who either shares your interest in the EA, or has more spare time than I have. You would probably also need to explain exactly what the problem with the Magic Numbers is.

Hello Carolyn
If you change this and it will work : extern bool instantorders=true; // instant orders

then this part generate buy signal (signal=1) and sell signal (signal=2)

Inserted Code
  int signal=0;
      if((xbarsmode==0 && countup==xbars) || (xbarsmode==1 && countup==xbars && countupa<xbars)
      && (rsifilter==false || (rsifilter && (rsimode==0 && rsi<=oversold1) || (rsimode==1 && rsia<=oversold1 && rsi>=oversold1)
       || (rsimode==2 && rsi<=oversold1 || (rsia<=oversold1 && rsi>=oversold1))) || (rsimode==3 && rsia<=oversold1 && rsi>rsia+rsidistance))
      && (stochfilter==false || (stochfilter && (stochmode==0 && stoch<=oversold2) || (stochmode==1 && stocha<=oversold2 && stoch>=oversold2)
       || (stochmode==2 && (stocha<=oversold2 && stoch>=oversold2) || stoch<=oversold2)))
      && (maexit==false || (maexit && !(max<maxa))))signal=1;
      
      if( signal == 1 ) Print( " ######  signal  1" );
      
      if((xbarsmode==0 && countdn==xbars) || (xbarsmode==1 && countdn==xbars && countdn<xbars)
      && (rsifilter==false || (rsifilter && (rsimode==0 && rsi>=overbought1) || (rsimode==1 && rsia>=overbought1 && rsi<=overbought1)
       || (rsimode==2 && rsi>=overbought1 || (rsimode==1 && rsia>=overbought1 && rsi<=overbought1))) || (rsimode==3 && rsia>=overbought1 && rsi<rsia-rsidistance))
      && (stochfilter==false || (stochfilter && (stochmode==0 && stoch>=overbought2) || (stochmode==1 && stocha>=overbought2 && stoch<=overbought2)
       || (stochmode==2 && (stocha>=overbought2 && stoch<=overbought2) || stoch>=overbought2)))
      && (maexit==false || (maexit && !(max>maxa))))signal=2;
      //if(ma>0 && ma!=EMPTY_VALUE)signal=1;
   //}

You can change this part to generate your own signals, and that's it, keep the rest as is.

I can't promise you'll find the answer, but the 'home' thread for the Slipshod S/R indicator is here.
Initial post also includes the e-mail address of the indicator's creator.

Hi,
is there any sort of indicator that can turn off and on selected indicators? For example if i load up a ZUP indicator, is there anything that can turn it off and on with one click?

HI Hanover,

I see the results. Thank you for doing that.It actually wasn't my idea, but someone has posted that and the 87% and I was intersted in finding out if it was true. Now I know it is not.

Since you are so good at working out things like that, I will post one of my ideas, for you to ttest.

I'm happy enough with my own trading, and hence I'm not looking for new ideas to test. I only ran the previous test because it was a very quick and easy job, and I wanted to satisfy myself that an idea so simple and without any underlying logical basis (no offense to anybody) couldn't possibly provide an edge. Spreadsheets are quick, whereas writing and debugging EAs takes a lot more time.

But please feel welcome to post, maybe another programmer will be keen to help.

Hi Machine25! Thanks a lot for your help!

I want this EA to be used as trade manager only with all the other code weeded out. but when I do this , It works on current chart only and I can't get it to work with Magic Number Functionality.

Hello thread,

I have my own thread HERE and the strategy needs a programmer.

Until recently I had somebody coding this however their best efforts were not enough to make it work, so hopefully there is someone on here who is looking for a new project and would like to help out.

I have the existing indicator which you can utilise as your base - it was very neatly structured, just the logic got confused.

If you are interested, please PM me with your email address, so the strategy document outline and all required indicators can be emailed to you.

Many thanks!

Hi Gorraf,

I've seen you've done a great job, and, if it doesnt take you so much time, would like to change the alert time placed in RSI DIVERGENCE indicator:

It places an arrow on the divergence and sound the alert, but i would like that the alert was placed in the following condition: Instead of sounds with the arrow, just when open the next candle that configure the divergence, would like it to sound when the next candle close against the divergence. Example below: Divergence in the white boxes should not sound alert. Divergence in the blue boxes should sound alert, at the close of the next divergence candle on opposite direction of the divergence. In that case, divergence signal is down, so alert should sounds at the up candle closing after divergence. And same if otherwise. Thank you!

I have a simple strategy to trade by using Renko Chart.........Hope that you can help me up.
I'm sorry, but I'm no longer performing coding requests. You could try posting in one of the "I code for free" threads, and perhaps somebody else can help you. Or if you're willing to pay for the work, you could try MQL or elance.
