{quote} - The wait time until a signal remains unchanged (Age) is valid for all modes (manual, automatic) and only then alerts or confirmations are sent. If you are impatient and risk-friendly, you can set the value to 10 or 20. However, the scalping takes the wait time. If you jump without preparation into the cold water, you get a heart attack! - I'm certainly much older than you, but you do not see it ...
I indeed thought you were younger then me
Thanks for the fast reply. It is clear for me now.

@Isabella - I would be happy if after testing v4 it shows out that the 'automatic trading selection choices' can be reduced with 50%.
P.s in your 1. Scalp suggestion you always want M5 ...

- I would suggest two blocks: 1. Scalp (3 of M5, M15, M30, H4) 2. Swing (3 of M15, M30, H4, D)
- I would choose Strong 33. # 139, remember 2/3 of deals default setting = 15 Minutes where running after about 1h in tp.
- Two blocks next to each other would be unclear (maybe I did not understand correctly)
- You can always make different combinations, it only takes a few minutes.

You mean that you should have:
Scalping_Strong_33
Scalping_Weak_23
Scalping_Weak_35

- In any case the M30 fits in the timeframes.
One must according to Alexander Elder with its TrippleScreen, there must be a ratio of 4-5 between the TFs, and M30 does not fit.
As an example, between H1 and H4 we have a ratio = 4. The H1-ATR is about half of H4-ATR and also the general volatility.
The price cycles have good zones of coincidences. Try to draw two sinus curves where each has the half period of the other, and will see how that works ...

My expectations in the development phase are also not oversized. This takes time and co-operation of course.
Concerning Scalping: This is defined and practiced very differently. I would do it as follows:
- right Market time (London open, New York open, PreSydney ... x minutes after red news)
- see 5 minutes, find trading possibility
- go to 1 minutes, look for goal
- go to 5 minutes, still good I have seen in 1 minutes chart?
- buy, do it in 5 minutes chart (manuel 1 minutes or 5 minutes/automated 5 minutes)
Automated TickTrades I do not mean.

Very interesting your remarks. I will care about this Elder statement. It is only noticeable to me that EAs often are running during tf15 and not using my preferred 30 minutes tf.

{quote} Because I do not know whether it is so, I have considered the wait time (Age) until a signal dont change. Stop order can be installed later, but I do not know if the market can read the 00-lines in the sand. The only problem is when the prices change the direction. It can be that the StopLosses reduce the profits too much. I will install a StopLoss on PriceAction basis, but until then I have to collect experience with the available signals. It can also be that after two weeks we find that the signals are bad, and then we have only had fun...
Thank you for your answer.

I also think that manual entry looking at M5 / M1 is the safest option.
Small SL and better R: R, possibility of pyramiding
I do not have an idea for auto trade. No TF M1 in EA makes us a little blind. Automated trading makes us stop thinking and this is not good for the account.

It's good like this?
I thought that one should not display Wins and Losses in separate columns, or is it important?

I am satisfied with the previous dimension of the table, loss / wins only in sum, not lots, no additional columns needed - my opinion

{quote} Sure this is possible. But a personal question: would you marry a woman without knowing whether she will make you rich or poor? (OK, if you're in love, you're blind ...) So also with the DB: no one still knows whether and how it works. Who accumulates experience will also get the automation, otherwise is dangerous (see Romeo and Juliet) ...

This is why I want to see how it works on demo before to marry

Oh no no - be not angry at me.
in #post 153 I followed @jarfx05 to show loss/win in one sum. Detailed columns for every position have an additional benefit, but are dispensable.
(yes in the picture they are included) .
The sense of presentation in a sum has the background to show: how long is the way to profit.
Assuming the position brings a tp of EUR 5. Meanwhile the position moves in the direction of -25 EUR due to the EA-setting caused by wide SL but not hitting SL. If this happens in several positions, the basket can be badly compensated.
conclusion: not only to see tp=5, but additional observe the high risk of 25. Does it appear often, is there often happy end ... For the purpose of better analysis.

Hope so you will go shopping with your wife in near time

For me it makes sense. I'm looking for an open door when the price should go where it is expected. Unlucky transvestites will close at a lower loss and not wait until it hits SL. I think the rules to cut losses will make you profit

I also buy shoes and do not wear. But it is a great memory and what color. See the joy in the eyes of the woman when he gets the coveted shoes .... priceless

So serious

Quit D1 add M1 ... sooner or later and you will do it ... better sooner

Or leave D1 and add M1 ... Every TF is important


Thank you and best regards

V3.3 is already auto trading by me. Don't know what happen but it just opening 8-10 orders..randomly 2 or 4 at a time. Restarted MT4 so let's see if it fixed..
Pushing buy or sell outside of market hours ?.. anyway strange and dangerous if i did not put on my swim short yet.
[EDIT] still firing orders after restart
