The timeframe enum problem seems to be affecting many different things throughout MT5 Blessing. It is possible to create good EAs very quickly. But things like grid layout don't seem to work reliably. I seem to mostly get one layer grids. So while ...

I understand testing over long periods to develop a new trading strategy. The original Blessing authors probably did that a lot. I'm not sure why you would test over more than a few months with a mature and profitable EA. You're worried about saving ...

Blessing 3 MT5 Project 10 Days from 06-10-2020.ex5 Appears to have ENUM problems. MT4 Blessing.15 defines enums for timeframes and other stuff. MT5 has more timeframes available. The new, MT5 ENUMs need to be used. Where MT4 has these timeframes ...

Martingale requires the doubling of bet size for each LOSS. That's the simple definition. Blessing certainly cannot do that without changing the code. I doubt Multipair Blessing can either. A small string of losses would bankrupt any account that ...

That sounds great. That would be the first step in cleaning it up. If it's not too different I'll consider combining the two versions so future development can benefit both version. That may be wishful thinking, but we'll see. I've still got brokers ...

It's in the manual. Along with all kinds of other interesting stuff. Blessing is complex. And the manual isn't perfect. But it helps a lot.

There are newer and better versions of Blessing based on .09 available in this list, as those that pay attention already know. The newer versions are also free and open source.

Sounds like you may have an old pay version of Blessing. You pay the vendor and tell him your account numbers. He sends you a personalized version that will work fine on demo or only on certain set accounts live. Before it has been set up it only ...

Strategy Tester doesn't know how to end a test with open positions. So it sometimes ends with a false large loss if there was a big drawdown at the end. It may signify that your system is experiencing large drawdowns or trading without stops.

I don't mess with stop loss settings much. I optimize everything and see if the end result seems tradeable. Blessing is a big, magic trading system and Strategy Tester shows you the best settings. If you have strong feelings about certain parameters ...

Sorry about that Mike. The magic number shows up if you choose a black background. Yes, that needs fixed. I'm looking at a few other issues right now. I hadn't noticed the DD display problem. I'll take a look when I have a chance.

Not strange at all. You're reflecting the commercial EA market that tries to be set-and-forget. Wishful money machines. All optimizing is curve fitting. People that think they're avoiding curve fitting are just making longer term, low earning ...

I just posted one. Not sure what you're talking about on the trend thing. It's built in and it works. I don't use hedging. I suspect hedging is the tool to use to make trading without stops safer. I don't like the results I've gotten with it so far. ...

It's not Blessing anymore. Hacked and reduced, which makes sense for the purpose. And no source code for the MT5 version. What's with that?

It always bugged me that they charged for set files, using longer timeframes and expecting them to last a long time. I consider that the completely wrong approach. And there's nothing you can do better as a 'professional effort' unless you test lots ...
