Hi jibala, can you tell me how to automatically send trade from excel to mt4? You write trade to text file and use mt4 script to read the text?

That's it! I don't know if it's exactly the same script but I guess it's just doing the same like ours.

{quote} There where you lose the order, what's your latency for executing orders from MT4 and Excel? Not ping server that is different think. I am asking because the broker we use a broker with low execution time, and in that case your stop lose could turn in a winner if you got filled faster. {file}
The delay from M$ Excel to mt4 order execution is 1 - 2 seconds if there are many orders sent simultaneously. Its just because the script is looking every second for a new order to be placed. Maybe there's a way to make it a bit faster and we will check it. Order execution to broker side is no problem.

But as long as we do have such amazing results there's nothing to complain about.

{quote} Hi Jibala did you trade in Asian session to?
The BOT is running from Sunday night until Saturday morning. There are 6 TF's during the day lasting from 30 minutes to 90 minutes within the BOT is prevented from taking trades because of too many false breakouts. But there are no special rules for the Asian session. Mostly it looks like 2/3 of the profit is from the night session which is Wellington (Newzealand), Sydney (Australia) and Tokyo (Japan) and 1/3 from the European and US session. Sometimes the profit of the 2 sessions (for us the night and day session) is 50/50 especially when we have many high impact economic news in LO and NY. But this may change again, it's just for now!

Beside your great hit rate, I'm so impressed by your individual TP sizes! Does your bot still use Trailing Stops like in older versions or has this been changed?

Maybe there was in the early version of 1 or 2 but ever since version 3, I don't remember a TS. It's not necessary for a scalping system because the statistics from the past states that you will not have a single Pip more of profit by using a TS.

{quote} TF's = Trade ??????? Sorry to seem so stupid
TF = time frame
TF's = time frames (if more than one)

Quote
Define time frame: A period of days, weeks, months, etc. within which an activity is intended to happen.

In our case, the activity is to prevent the BOT from opening an order. Analog to a time switch.

Greetings all,

With in the settings of custom indicator MADdash do I need anything beside " Chart template " like the EA / dash board, the MADdash template loaded chart is working with the pair values changing, only two ( metals ) charts open at this point. gets a little confusing , some in early quote MADdash templates then there is talk that they are indicators, all a challenge when one has not lived thru all this before.

{quote} Hello brother Aromos. Happy to see it worked for you. Which of the named solutions was helpful? For your next problem we need some more details because it's very hard to find out what causes the very thin described problem since we do not have our crystal ball at hand all the time. But first of all you always should try to help yourself by searching and reading the thread. I'm almost 100% sure you'll find the solution inside this thread. Jibala

Thank you Sister Jibala, MT4 is now taking manual orders from excel.

However, the signals come so fast, how do we automate the order placement from excel?

Thank you for kind support.

We too had bad experiences on yesterday, caused by a not properly working module which handles the GAP HEATMAP. It was very hard to analyse what causes the problem because sometimes it was working and sometimes not. We were working on it almost 24h nonstop. Finally, we got it fixed and the day ended up in a small profit.

Still one of the best trades ever (although we had the problems):

While the long was still in play the BOT recognised a short signal and placed a sell order.

Back to normal since last night:
