Look guys, I am not as good a coder as Robert nor finimej for sure, and you also have charvo here. I'm sorry for my rants. I apologize, and ask for the more experienced coders to take care of this. I surely thought that almost all of what has been ...

Robert, Thank you for taking the time to reply. I now understand the reason you used Global variables where I use global variables. Since one of the first things I did was check which type of trade, so even if lost, that it checks each tick what ...

Maybe since profit-locking is too tight, maybe someone would like to test Robert's latest EA version d without profit-locking? Then exit by MACD is what would make us exit. Then there would be no reason to make another entry condition based on ...

trade4fun, I don't know what to do to proceed forward. Couldn't have been as simple as me post the EA and someone fix it and us move on. Had to get into all this other crap that just got us side-tracked. So right now, I'm going to try and clear my ...

dr_zeus, d is the last version Robert posted, and what I tested last week and showed results/findings. In fact, in BuyAll right now with that EA on two different broker demos. Up a couple hundred pips on one and about a hundred on the other. I never ...

Robert, If you look at BI and compare it to BuyAll indi (or offline chart) with 5 and 10 MA, there is very little visual difference. I think that is what hazelj was getting at, not that they were calculated the exact same, or that they are the exact ...

Robert, When you came to this thread, you said that you had done this before, and had left the other thread because people kept wanting to do other things besides what you had in mind. Then you came here and did the same thing you accused the other ...

zznbrm understands what I mean. Things that a trader takes for granted cannot be taken for granted in an EA. The EA must trade like the trader does, or it will fail. Then the trader wonders why he/she can trade manually and be successful with the ...

Kos, I got trades last week that I know you wouldn't have taken but the EA did, and you would have seen it if using the latest EA last week on H4, so I gave 2 recommendations, and you said nothing about them. Didn't code in any retracement, since ...

I'm not saying this again. Kos said it is trading like it should. Until he says differently, what am I supposed to do?! I disagree with yours and Robert's take on what should be. It does not matter the separation between the two MACD lines. When the ...

The ball is in Kos' court to actually test the EA and tell us if it is doing what it should be doing, and if not, what is it doing that it should not be doing, and why, so that Robert or myself can make changes if needed. Kos posting charts at this ...

If someone wants to start one, that's fine with me. I just put it up as another "basket" of pairs to trade - in fact quite a set of baskets, so user's have choice. The original indicator I posted for the currency rings just treated them as BuyAll 3 ...

Julius brought it to my attention that I need to make sure people know that Currency Ring pdf looks to buy or sell all 3 currency pairs in the ring. This is different from url where 2 currency pairs are bought and one sold, to create a hedge. To ...

trade4fun, This is why during checking entry signals, I had code to exit BuyAll if got signal for SellAll (what Robert was talking about I had exit code and entry code together). So I agree it is a bug. I coded it to take care of that problem. In ...

Kos, The "small" candles on H4 are much bigger than 560 pips on the basket. The bottom line is profit-locking numbers either were: never used by Julius (they aren't in his profit-locking EA, only posted by him, so is in our EA). I have some revised ...

winsteadglenn, In due time, I will agree with you. For now, doing Kos' strategy, it's his, and only he can say if the EA is doing it right or not. I gave the EA, and either we stay on path of what we're doing with Kos' strategy, or I will remove ...

Are you using T101_EA_byDon_JustKos_06-09-10d that Robert uploaded? I have it opening trades after it closes with profit-locking, but those trades don't "close automatically" (sounds like a problem that was encountered in earlier version). They only ...

Kos, I don't know about your timeframe alignment. Hopefully you have seen where I talk about different brokers having different week and day start times, and how this affects when we get into a trade. On one broker you'll get good entry. On another ...
