I thought better to release this new version before getting into too deep the atr & ratio% topic as that would involve some cycles to agree on the details. So here goes the EA version 1.2:- New feature: CloseOnOppositeSignal parameter to enable ...

This means that the HAS indicator is not installed on the MT terminal. To fix this download the indicator from the very first post and copy it to the C:/Program Files/MetaTrader - Alpari UK/experts/indicators folder. Then restart your MT and try ...

Hi JR, Please ensure that the EA instances on the same pair are either running on different demo accounts or have different magic numbers. Well this is what comes to my mind first thing - though I will take a look at the code if I missed any obvious ...

Hi watube, It's still on the list - I just did not get that far yet It also likely require more time just an hour here and there to sit down and understand how that indicator/script works and find a proper use and way of incorporating it. If you ...

Hi ianlikesgolf, As far as I can see you as well as JRpips8 are looking for the CloseOnOppositeSignal feature - to be used in non-trending markets and/or for reversed entry method. I am going to incorporate this feature next. LB

Yes JR, all other EA parameters should do their job as before. The only thing is the trade would happen in the opposit direction of the trigger. Good weekend!

As per JRPips8 request: the new feature of reverse the trading trigger for market entry is added, see EntryMethod=3. This feature is to check out the potential of the strategy in a reversed way. Retracement trades are disabled with this entry ...

Hi Atlas1, When you go for ExitMethod=2 then you would see 2 tickets created per trading trigger. One ticket will close out when TP or SL is hit, while the 2nd ticket will do trailing stop once the 1st ticket reached TP. As the EA runs on 4H TF and ...

Hi Scalpz, Seems to me you have a very busy MT I mean live chart which is receiving tick data. Can be minimized alright it will still receive and process tick data. However if you switch to another profile then that chart will be shut down & ...

Hi Doug, Yes, the TradeTimeXXX parameters are used to select the bars where the EA should check for trading trigger. If you run the EA on 4H period and you want to check London session 8am to 4pm only then, assuming your broker is in London time, ...

Good stuff! Please note that the EA can do its magic only when it is attached to a live chart and the Expert Advisors button is green. You would see a smiley face in the upper right corner of the chart and the EA would show its status on the chart ...

OK, so no new info to consider re that ticket. I wonder if MT was restarted between the ticket creation and closure? Might not be a fair question as I got very short term memory but wanted to ask... Sometimes MT restart may help get things "back to ...

Hopefully reversing the trigger would not be a big deal - will take a look.

Right: here comes the version 1.0.0 New feature: ATRMinimumTriggerPips parameter to filter out triggers where ATR value is less than this value Validating at EA startup some of the main parameter values like EntryMethod, ExitMethod, ...

Hi Atlas1, I am glad you got it running... I guess just be patient, could take for a while to get trade triggered Re filtering there is going to be a new parameter to skip trades should the ATR reading be less than a certain value. That ...
- LongBar replied Sep 15, 2009
Will take a look at the above - I am going to prepare the next version 1.0 soon. It would have the minimum ATR filter added in as well. LB

Hi Jr, Well, the above output looks like perfect ticket details for the USDCHF trade. I assume you use the magic number 20090906 for the EA. The thing is that the EA code did not change (ver0.17 was used) and all other trades are properly handled by ...
- LongBar replied Sep 11, 2009
JR, see the attached script. To install copy it to your <path to MT>/experts/scripts folder and restart MT. It should show up in the Navigator window at the Scripts node. I would ask you to execute the script once on a USDCHF chart and once on an ...

Yeah, keep in mind the EA as well as MT is just a piece of software, these handle right those situations these have been programmed for... Whether this is EA or MT problem (or both) is yet to be seen. I took a look at the EA code and I do not see an ...
