This is Version 1.02 of MT7_CSV2RenkoHST_SC script (the first version is available in this post). There is no limitations in the number of ticks (I fixed the memory allocation problem), but due to MT4's 32-bit architecture the script may fail to ...

Hi Hercs! That's great news! Could you please tell us about your settings, such as Symbols, Renko size, time of trading, money management, etc.? This way other Renko traders would learn from your experience with this EA. Best, Matt

This is Version 1.08 of Hercs Renko EA. In this version two indicators HalfTrend_Open.ex4 and HalfTrend_Close.ex4 are used instead of NRP version. All indicators are embedded to the EA's code. The user can select which HalfTrend indicator (Open or ...

That's not broken data! It is the limitation of the MT4 platform which has minimum 1 second resolution for time axis of charts. When two (or more) Renko bars have "open time" with less than 1 second difference, the MT4 platform fails to draw them ...

Attached is a Zip file containing HST files of EURUSD NonGap Renko created by real ticks from 20180101 to 20191115 for Renko sizes 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 and 100 points. Hope this helps people with backtesting Renko strategies.

The attached script converts real ticks (from a CSV file in Birt's CSV2FXT format) to Non-gap/Rail-to-Rail Renko HST file for backtesting. It expects the CSV file to be located in the MT4's MQL4\Files folder and it will save the HST file there as ...

By saying "works well" and "works bad" you mean profitable and not profitable?

Hi dzsiaar, You are right about difficulties in backtesting Renko trading EAs accurately. I do not use FXT for accurate Renko backtesting, I run the Renko EA (which are written by me) on regular M1 time frame with real ticks and create Renko bars on ...

Hi Hercs! I will take a look at these indicators. However, without the source code I cannot easily judge whether they repaint or not. I guess you have my email address, so if you send me the source code (one of them is enough since the logic seems ...

I am attaching HST file for EURUSD, 2016-01-15 till 2019-09-01, 100 points. For other sizes and symbols I have to download history ticks and prepare data... It would take time since I am quite busy with other projects at the moment.

Renko Trading Discussion

Hi, I might be able to help you. Which symbol, period and Renko size you are looking for?

Hi Hercs! A quick look at the source code, I can confirm that HalfTrend repaints the buffers Up and Down in some cases. Best, Matt

I performed optimization and backtests of MT7_Renko_Hercs_EA with 100 points Renko on EURUSD from 2016-01-15 until 2019-09-01. The results of optimization shows that HalfTrend's best input settings is 2! Any other number would result in overall ...

The upper / lower border indicator is repainting. You won't get such a nice signal in real time.
