Guest sparky08 Posted November 11, 2010 Report Share Posted November 11, 2010 Maybe some of the following functionality can be added if possible: - IsBuyPinbar, IsSellPinbar functions - these pinbars needs to be sticking out from the BB - IsEngulfed_Bar - tested for the many prior bars - Test of Stoch <20 - Around the trigger candle (the bar before the entry bar) - is round number around, around the prior swing low and is the 200 & 365 ma's around the trigger candle (falls inside the candle or around 1-5 pips of the tigger candle) - Firstly maybe we could put the above info on the dashboard - doesnt matter if its messy - lets test it first, then we can worry about the cosmetic changes later.

Guest sparky08 Posted November 11, 2010 Report Share Posted November 11, 2010 Please note that many of the above functions were written in many EA's - maybe we can use ideas from those ones, if the need be I can provide links to them, let me know.

middx58 Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 (edited) Hi Guys, Just to let you know that I have not forgotten about this. Just in the thick of it at work............ Appreciate the patience and good to see the continued interest in the thread. Hello Kenny, I wonder if you have the latest version ready for us to try out and test. Many thanks and Best regards, Edited November 21, 2010 by middx58 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennyhubbard Posted November 20, 2010 Report Share Posted November 20, 2010 Hi guys, Ok, I have to confess that I have been vegitating for the last 10 days since my course finished, so I have been neglecting the commitements that I have made here. I am slowly getting back into my coding frame of mind and I hope to release an update in the next week. The first update will be some simple ones like the ability to change % lots to be closed at middle BB and I will also be removing some of the features that are proving to be problematic like the preventing of the EA running if there is already another chart of the same timeframe and instrument running. I have come to the conclusion that there is no problem running 2 of the same charts at the same time but with the code as it is causes endless problems if your platform gets closed in a non-standard way eg computer or platform crash. Sparky, you have made several suggestions, some of which I will be taking into consideration. I already have much of the code for the various reversal patterns and will slowly start working them into the dashboard. In the meantime Benny, perhaps you could bring me up to speed on what the latest is with your system and have there been any developments in what should appear in the dashboard. middx58 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisbenjy Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 (edited) Can anybody help me asap please. I have the EA open, but it says EA is already active on a pair and thus will be inactive on this pair. But it isn't, this is the only instance of the EA I'm running. I have a live trade open so does any one know a solution please? http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/5579/dumbasserror.jpg Edit: Had to close the trade at a loss, because I'm not leaving a vulnerable order open without order management. Can anyone pleas explain to me (i) why the EA seems to think I'm running multiple instances. (ii) how to solve it before I lose any more money.

I have a live trade open so does any one know a solution please? It's happened to me b4 what i did was Right click the EA then remove it from the chart then add it again. If that doesn't work then remove the EA from your chart again and close metatrader then reopen it again hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisbenjy Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 Does anyone else have any suggestions because this is really pissing me off now. Just lost money on a trade that would currently be in profit and now I cannot open any more trades because the EA has decided it wants to be "inactive".

chrisbenjy Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 Hello all, sorry for my frustration earlier. I have solved the problem. In the include file I just changed int result = MessageBoxA(0 ,"Warning!!! This EA is already running on the same pair and TF!!!"+"\n" + "EA will be inactive.",WindowExpertName(),MB_OK); Can_Run = false; to int result = MessageBoxA(0 ,"Ignoring Error",WindowExpertName(),MB_OK); Can_Run = true; It will probably cause serious problems if I actually do end up putting the EA on the same pair and tf, but I just have to make sure I don't. Unfortunately now that the problem is fixed, it is too late to re-enter the trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennyhubbard Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 Hi Chris, This will be fixed in the next update. Of course you have found a work around but or the rest of the guys, if you get this problem, close all the warning boxes and then hit F3. Delete all the Global Variables in the box that appears and re-launch the EA. chrisbenjy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennyhubbard Posted November 24, 2010 Report Share Posted November 24, 2010 Minor update, http://www.multiupload.com/H4IKT4G6RY http://www.multiupload.com/H4IKT4G6RY http://www.multiupload.com/H4IKT4G6RY http://www.multiupload.com/H4IKT4G6RY Download links for the Bol_TP EA plus the include file as well as the 2 scripts. I have removed the instrument/timeframe protection, so hopefully this should cease causing issues. I have also fixed one or two minor bugs with the display. I have now included the ability to change the lotsize that gets closed at the mid BB. This is controlled by external parameter "Close_Percent". The EA will automatically close the sleceted % or the broker minimum trade size whichever is greater. There is still an issue where the EA will produce an error when the trade close at mid BB constitutes the whole trade(eg your original trade is the minimum broker trade size). When this trade is closed at mid BB, the EA will look for a ticket for the remainder of the trade which will not exist since the whole trade was closed. The error is only a nuisance error and does not affect the operation of the EA and I will eventually find a work around. smurf43, ⭐ Ormazd and benny3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kennyhubbard Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 http://www.multiupload.com/5XK5P945Y0 Just a small update for the dashboard. This only affect users that trade with brokers who have a suffix attached to their currency pairs. I discovered that the dashboard does not function when there is a suffix present. Given the fact that no-one has mentioned this problem, I am not sure how big a problem it is for people but it is fixed now. benny3 and domonkos 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Kenny When I tried to compile in Forex.com MT4 (pairs are with suffix FXF e.g. EURUSDFXF) , it gave following warnings. Function "BullishEngulfingExists" is not referenced and will be removed from exp-file Function "BullishHaramiExists" is not referenced and will be removed from exp-file Function "DojiAtBottomExists" is not referenced and will be removed from exp-file Function "DojiAtTopExists" is not referenced and will be removed from exp-file Function "BearishHaramiExists" is not referenced and will be removed from exp-file Function "LongUpCandleExists" is not referenced and will be removed from exp-file Function "LongDownCandleExists" is not referenced and will be removed from exp-file Function "BearishEngulfingExists" is not referenced and will be removed from exp-file Function "SpinningTopExists" is not referenced and will be removed from exp-file 0 error(s), 9 warning(s) I would appreciate it, if you could please fix these. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennyhubbard Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 Hi Smurf, Those are warnings and do not need to be fixed. They are irrelevant to the operation of the dashboard. I have included certain functions for future development and the compiler is simply telling you that it has detected that these functions are not being used, and because of this they are not included in the final compiled ex4 file. smurf43 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benny3 Posted December 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 Hi Kenny can you please add the option to take half at center BB or not. And also the option to close at outer BB's or not For example I enter a trade using the scripts, then the EA puts in the stoploss that's all i want to be able to do for now,no closing at center and no closing at outer just let it run.

jonnnny23 Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 Hi everyone, I have been trying to back test this ea and am having difficulties. I have tried multiple back tests with different currencies and time frames and the EA never triggers a trade. I am using all the default settings except fixed lot size: 0.2 since my demo broker doesn't use mini lots. Am I missing something in the ea setup??? Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a trade management Expert Adviser. Example: You open 0.1 lots with the scripts then the EA places your stoploss and takes half (0.05) at center Bollinger Band, and then the rest at the outer Bollinger Band. Hope this helps.

I have renamed it Script_Controller_EA. I have created a "new" EA as the logistics of removing all the BB logic and still keeping the original EA funtioning would have been too complex. There are 5 files..... 1.....The new Script_Controller_EA 2.....The Bol_TP_Include files, which uses common functions. Replace your orginal include file with this one, as there have been changes. 3.....Buy Scipt 4.....Sell Script 5.....Slightly modified original Bol_TP_v4_Enhanced EA. This has been slightly modified to be compatible with the changes to the include file. I have not tested this extensively, so I expect some bugs. Please report them here as usual.
