ecTrade replied Feb 2, 2010Okay, so what does this mean? I just copied it from an indicator alarm that went off. Is there any reference to the buffer here? Or what does the number 19:15:57 mean? It's not the time is it? ... i.e., it's only 11:20 Pacific Time.

ecTrade replied Feb 2, 2010There are actually four conditions it produces, although they are pretty much just buy and sell signals, but I can't tell which is which by looking at that. Really all I need is the buy and sell signals, but I would pretty much like to know which ...

ecTrade replied Feb 2, 2010So these variable are probably already set up in the buffer (I'm guessing), and all I need is to figure out which ones they are and call them up through iCustom() ... as I am not trying to create (or intercept) anything that isn't already there.

ecTrade replied Feb 2, 2010Okay, so the indicator writes into the buffer (although I'm not sure what that's about?) which, the EA accesses though iCustom? Now that almost sounds do-able.

ecTrade replied Feb 2, 2010Sorry, but this is too far beyond me at this point. I figure all I need is to determine what signal sets off the alarm, and determine which conditions generated it, and pass this on (as globals) to the EA. This is all that I've done and, it works ...

ecTrade replied Feb 2, 2010Yes. Unfortunately though, robots are only as good as the rules they operate by. Sometimes they require more input. If it's something that generates a good "signal," then it's well worth considering. And if you think about it, an indicator is ...

ecTrade replied Feb 2, 2010The EA is supposed to trade automatically and run all the time. So no, I'm afraid I can't help you there. However, almost everything I do, including backtesting, forward testing and trading live, I do it in the 15 minute time frame. But hey, you are ...

ecTrade replied Feb 2, 2010So what are you supposed to do, without a lot of trouble, if you're tying to get an indicator to generate signals an EA can pickup and trade automatically with? You either convert it to an EA which, I'm not prepared to do at this point or, you go ...

ecTrade replied Feb 2, 2010Actually, the specific example given works without a hitch. So far, every time a signal is generated and the alert pops up (over the past few days) I've placed a successful trade. I don't see what's so ugly about that? Neither do I see what's so ...

ecTrade replied Feb 2, 2010Not the greatest, actually. I've been backtesting it over a six month period with EUR/USD and .01 lot size with a net loss between $25 and $80 US. If you were to bump that up to 1.0 lots (on mini account), you're talking between $2500 and $8000, so ...

ecTrade replied Feb 1, 2010Where does it say this, when you are testing an EA? I suppose it could be your broker. Maybe they don't allow you to do this, I don't know? It seems kind of odd though.

ecTrade replied Feb 1, 2010Here are what the actual settings would look like (to give you an idea of what's involved) if you set it up to behave like the original Ding Dong: TP1 = 10, SL1 = 20, P_Lead = 0, P_Lag = 0, R_Lead = 20, R_Lag = 0. Also, the settings that are there ...

ecTrade replied Feb 1, 2010Hmm ... maybe I need the second "z?" I think it might looks better that way. It's still in the works. Thanks. Like I said before, it's there in case the price goes south and doesn't come back up again. That way it will keep the trading "automatic." ...
