DislikedHi! First of all, thanks to the programmer(s) for this commendable job!! After reading this thread i have still a question: Is it possible to set the EA only to go short or long?

DislikedHi Kombela, I have attached an example list file confg .. just want to run 3 x times through the day, basically same settings for all to start with while I see how it goes, did this all yesterday to pick up last nights trading, It did the 23:59 trade, but didnt handle the 08:59 trade, still showed 23:59 trade .. changed the list file to pick up the 8:59 trade at 09:15 as the last line in the file, it picked that up, killed it off, reloaded the original list file and it still shows 23:59 trade as the next trade even tho there is one for midday'sih...Ignored
DislikedThanks Alan, and yes, I initially had lots of charts for the same pairs with different times in each, I wanted a way to have just a couple of charts as the load on my trading VM was going up and thought the list version would fix that, but, I still need at least one chart per pair with the lsit as I tend to trade the same times for a certain number of pairs and I dont think the list version can trade 2 x pairs at the same time ?Ignored
DislikedHi Kombela, thanks, that also makes sense .. I can build a file for the week and include the news items also .. I am just testing at the moment, so, am really honing down on what I can do with this EA, its very good .. I am getting some decent results based on some of my trading strategies .. all demo atm .. I have a long way to go before I go live .. many thanks again to both you and Alan for your work on this and responding .. keep up the good workIgnored
