Hi piprac, Did you place it in the experts\indicators directory of your installation? You may need to exit IBFX to get it to be recompiled when you next start up.

Hmm, I've noticed this on occasion where a trade gets triggered and then price drops through the SL and out the other side. The EA won't trade the same IB twice, maybe I should relax this constraint?

I'm avoiding doing any time related code at the moment. I'm not sure the MetaTrader language can show me timezone related information. One thing I could do is to enable a property to turn off trading when set. It would still continue to manage ...

Hi Snowdogg, I have noticed these errors on occasion, I think they occur when the Sl is too close to the opening price. If your broker has a high spread then this could be a reason. Also, you may need to change some of the settings for a broker that ...

Hmm, some big winners and losers in that list. I think it pays to have a spread of currencies like you are doing. I hope next week is just as profitable! The next thing for the EA is to trade long above the daily pivot point and short below it. This ...

EA - 20090123 — Better run today. Stopped the EAs at 19:45 GMT. Some initial losers from last night that may have won at 1/2 TP. Added the weekly view too.

Thanks Smilee89, Do you know of any example indicators that calculate these? Saves me having to code something from scratch.

Thanks Abnormalone. I'm still in two minds to try this, and s/r levels in general, but your analysis seems to indicate it might be worth the effort. Smilee89 would agree with you, I think. If I get time over the weekend then I'll give it a go.

Having coded my own ATR, then I can say that there's nothing wrong with MT4's ATR. It really does get affected by a large bar to that degree. Plan B.

Thanks Smilee89, Do you take the break if it goes either way (short/long), or do you have a rule that determines which breaks to take? I'm about to incorporate pivots/support/resistance into the code and this could form part of the 'rules'.

Garson, Abnormalone, Thanks for the confirmation. ATR in MetaTrader does appear to be something different to the other platforms, and to the definition of ATR. As Abnormalone says, it must be a Weighted ATR or WATR
