Forex Breakout System EA


Recommended Posts

Re: Forex Breakout System EA

 

Alrighty, attached is an update. This release attempts to allow for a configurable magic number and to resolve trade context busy messages. A note about trade context busy messages - the cause can either be on your MT4 platform or the broker's end. If you have a lot of EAs/pairs running, this eats up available threads; once all threads are used, we have to wait for one to become available.

 

New variables added:

 

MagicNumber = we all know what this is

OrderTries = how many times an order is attempted

OrderTriesSleep = time between retries (default is 5000, which is 5 seconds)

 

I have renamed this EA to "FBS Reboot" :)

 

Please test and post your feedback!

P.S. I am adjusting the box start time on my forward testing to 16:00 GMT, the default was 22:00 GMT

fscrp: Can you fix this bug? Thanks!

 

"FBS_Reboot_v3 GBPUSD,M30: invalid lots number for OrderClose function

FBS_Reboot_v3 GBPUSD,M30: NY #12679032 - Cant Close Partial after 3 mins - Aborting"

 

The first error is possibly because you have the minimum lot size already. If minimum lot size you can trade is .1 and you have a trade opened at .1, it is not possible to close a portion of it.

 

The second is not a bug, but was planned. I was already thinking about removing it, so I will add it to my list ;)

New version attempting to remove 3 minute time-limit for closing partial orders and resolve trade context busy when pending orders being deleted.

The EA's performance started strong last week then took a few big losses. Something I have not been considering up to this point is high impact news events. I am going to start looking at it this week.

I just noticed this error in the experts tab, seems to be happening every couple of seconds :-

Hi sanyi,

 

I have run the EA on both a 4-digit (FXDD) and a 5-digit (JadeFX) broker successfully.

 

 

Thank you for your help!

The FBS_Reboot_v4 is showing a mistake too. Can you fix it?

I think the mistake is in the ClosePartial part, after the EA closes half of the 0.20 position I get an error message in MIG platform.

In real time testing I get the following error message 2009.11.25 14:00:12 FBS_Reboot_v4 EURUSD,M30: invalid price 1.50770000 for OrderClose function

In the backtest it says: 2009.11.26 07:53:53 2009.11.25 15:39 FBS_Reboot_v4 USDCHF,M30: OrderClose error 4051

2009.11.25 12:39 FBS_Reboot_v4 USDCHF,M30: invalid lots number for OrderClose function 2009.11.25 12:39 FBS_Reboot_v4 USDCHF,M30: OrderClose error 4051
