{quote} There is no opening bar alert with the Paradox. What I'm trying to figure out what alert would do that. Do you get a pop up on the alert? If so what does it say?
Thank you Dana for helping me with this! No, there is no pop up, no alert message of any sort. Simply at the opening of each 2H bar (and I believe it also happens if the 1H or Daily chart is in view when new bar forms...I only have one monitor). It also happened with the default sound.wav, so it is an mt4 issue not something unique to the Paradox. I've explored / searched MT4 platform and haven't discovered anyway to turn this open bar alert off. If I am the only one experiencing this then there must be some way to turn the bar alert off...

Hello there, I've been preparing a question about my loss meanwhile (by the way, would have hit the SL with the news, just saw it), and took a couple of pictures to help explaining the scenarios: Scenario 1: Hendo's latest short operation (hope you don't mind using it as example of a proper entry!), got in TP with price never going against him: {image} Scenario 2: My latest entry, was a straight-up SL with a little movement on my favor before that: {image} I've been looking at both scenarios to try and learn what did I do wrong, and had a few ideas,...
The scenarios are different. Hendo did not have the DB attached with the SAR which the DB was on top; and once it did connect together - EMA was in trend on a slider with ROMAR and continue south.

Your entry was with the DB/SAR connected together going north and continued north with the EMA crossing.

The difference was with the DB - different scenarios.

Thank you Dana, filtered the other guesses and going to note and document both scenarios, I want to master DB/SAR with PSAR entries first.

Also - EMA played a big role on both scenario entries. Study the role of EMA and you will see it.

{quote} You have your coral arrows installed I beleive. In trends, it gives signal at (almost) every open bars. If you delete it(or set its alarm off), the case should be solved.
Thank you for the suggestion! Are you speaking of the Paradox_MA_crossover coral arrows? I see no way to turn off an alarm for them. Also, in my case it is every bar, not just in trend bars.

OK - Go to your H1 chart - right click on the chart - open indicators and delete the Paradox_MA_Crossover. That should end your problem. If not, then get back with me.

The coral is not for the H1 chart but is used on the H2. I believe with it on the H1 is causing the problem.

Another problem you may be encountering is using the "MT4 News Calendar Indicator" with the Paradox. If you are using this indicator then delete it or else you will continue in having problems. Especially trading a live account.

I do not have the coral on my H1. I do however have it on my Daily. I will delete from Daily and we'll see what happens. Thank you!

2 O'clock EDST, a new two hour bar opened...and unfortunately the music is playing as usual!...
(the only charts open on my mt4 where the three Paradox with nothing but Paradox indis running. after deleting coral on Daily and NewsCal Indi on a 4th chart I closed the platform and reloaded it to make sure the changes had taken effect). BTW: The sound.wav also plays each time I login.

Something had effected the coral on your Mt4 - Check both the H2 and Daily and if the Paradox_MA_Crossover is on the list then delete them. If this solved the problem let me know and we will go from there.

You not getting a pop up is telling me if it is the coral then you have a major problem with your MT4 - which means you may have to redo your whole system in getting rid of indicators residue you had added in the past.

Thanks All. Dana, I deleted coral off 2H as well. It was already off 1H & Daily. I also have gone through and deleted all non-system, non-Paradox indis from the platform.

And Jakdan, yes I removed Sydney Session open line from my H2 (I use it only on my 1H, along with the other sessions). So I put it back on the 2H to return the template to the original configuration on the off, off chance that has caused my problem.
And I used to like my tune but after hearing it 12 times a day for months now I'm not sure I do anymore.

I'll reboot and see what happens at 6.
At least I now know I'm alone with this issue...makes me special.
