TallCoolOne replied Jun 11, 2013Hi EZ, I'm not sure on why the trades were taken. I know when the EA is first attached, sometimes weird trades are opened and this is troubling. I need to nail that down. As far as using multiple trend determination methods as a filter for the ...

TallCoolOne replied Jun 11, 2013Hi Prozor, I'm glad you are having good success with it and thanks for your kind words. Please really test it though before you go live. I would work through a couple of trend reversals so we experience the gnashing of teeth, heartburn and night ...

TallCoolOne replied Jun 11, 2013Hi Alpine. Those should be both set to false, unless you don't want to use the three current trend methods - Ichimoku, 20/50 EMA or MACD. Say you have your own proven method for determining a trend, that is discretionary - maybe using trend lines or ...

TallCoolOne replied Jun 11, 2013Great Scott. Nice to see some new methods being used. Nothing wrong with experimentation. If that works, maybe we could add it as another trend determination method to go along with the others.

TallCoolOne replied Jun 11, 2013Hi Alpine. I agree. I will work on it. I would like to display more of the settings info on the screen also, along with percentage of account increase for current trades open. Thanks for the info. We will get it ironed out.

TallCoolOne replied Jun 11, 2013I hear ya Scott. Slow and steady eddie profits. My goal a month is only 6%. So if you do the math on that over 10 yrs. It could be very nice. So I like the idea of basket trading, spreading the risk, taking what the market gives us. Nipping at it ...

TallCoolOne replied Jun 11, 2013Hi Scott, I just wanted to let you know I had 2 baskets close with 3% profit last night. One on my Ichimoku test demo and one on my 20/50 EMA demo. The MACD demo is close to the profit level so it should close another soon. Thanks for the code, ...

TallCoolOne replied Jun 10, 2013Hi jcva, I didn't know the time trade delay was not working. I think they posted issues with the other EA on 100PipsADay's thread, but I think our time trade delay was working solid as designed. Please let know if you have any issues. Thanks!

TallCoolOne replied Jun 10, 2013Yes HT jdva, that is exactly right. Set both to false and it should be pretty much be inline with 100PipsADay rules for taking trades. Hopefully! Please let me know if you have any issues. Thanks!

TallCoolOne replied Jun 10, 2013Good question Alpine. I should have explained that more. It will close all trades for all pairs. So be aware. If you want to close all trades based on a certain percentage gain of the account balance, I would set it as default true on all charts. ...

TallCoolOne replied Jun 7, 2013Hi BritPip, it looks to me like the line cross matches up when the bars cross over our under the zero line. That is what the EA is using for trend determination. As far as excepting new trades based on crossing over the -50 level on the WPR and then ...

TallCoolOne replied Jun 7, 2013Hi Roy, are the trades that are currently open, opened by the EA, if so...then I would say there is an issue with the broker server not executing the trades and it is timing out when trying to open it. I haven't run across this issue with IBFX. ...

TallCoolOne replied Jun 7, 2013Hi TPC, thanks for your testing efforts. I think there is bug somewhere when the EA is first applied or turned back on, it will open an oddball trade sometimes. Not sure if I have variable not getting reset or what. I had that happen to me too. I ...

TallCoolOne replied Jun 7, 2013Hi Scott, sounds nice. Looking forward to it. I made code changes to the my test version of the EA today, to trade based on ticks and not close of the bar. I will do some testing with it and see how it goes. The trader will be able to toggle this on ...
