Hi Dacky and Richdad711,

+ Thanks to Richdad711 for your clear explanations.

+ Dacky, You are good and generous. Right, good stuffs can also be shared if the person has good sharing spirit with public.

By the way, Dacky, on your version V3.4, I saw there are many different Magic nos that made me confused. I do not know how to use all these magic no.s

What I need is only 1 magic no. externally on Input parameter so that if I put your ea on Eurchf, I will use magic no. like 1111, and if I use your ea on another pair EURGBP, I will change magic no. to be 2222, and if using on USDCAD, I will change it to 3333, etc.

I wonder why there are many different magic no.s as default settings. Please kindly explain me more clearly. Thanks a lot for your time.

By the way, I do not see many people showing interests in this potentially profitable ea? I do not see many comments on backtesting, forward-testing results of good preset files for this ea on EURCHF, EURGBP, USDCAD, EURUSD, etc? Let's try to give our comments, suggestions or any good ideas to improve this ea even much more profitable.

+ In addition, what is the new change in your newer version V3.5 ? Have you backtested your ea on EURGBP, and EURUSD? I opine your ea works very well on these 2 pairs as well.

Have a nice weekend to all !

Dacky the mq4 link doesn't work - The file link that you requested is not valid.

I tested it for over a day now and the EA hasn't made any trades???

jennifer_tam41 · March 5, 2011

Hi Cider,

I confirmed that all links worked without problem, including link of mq4 source code.

You should try again.

My friend confirmed that on backtest, the ea did place several trades (because default setting of max trades = 5). So, maybe, you need to do it again, too.

Best regards,

Jennifer

I'm still trying the EA and it's not doing anything; could it be a 5 digit broker bug?

Hi Jen, if you want to trade this EA on different pairs, you just need to change the magic numbers to something similar below

From

Magic1=3152644

Magic2=3152645

Magic3=3152646

Magic4=3152647

To

Magic1=4152644

Magic2=4152645

Magic3=4152646

Magic4=4152647

same goes for your 3rd pair, you just need to change the 1st digit of the magic numbers

Richdad and Cider,

if you used 5 digits it might be the issued from spread, have to try to enable ECN?...it should working

Not ECN Compatibile

Hello Dacky,

I've been testing on ECN for the past few weeks (all versions) and I haven't had any trades either. No notes in the experts / journal tabs.

I've taken a quick look at the code and found an error with the ECN point calculation, which results in a further errors wherever point is used.

You have this in init(), which is the correct way to detect 5 digits and adjust point accordingly:

   if (Point == 0.00001) g_slippage_436 = 0.0001;
  else {
     if (Point == 0.001) g_slippage_436 = 0.01;
     else g_slippage_436 = Point;

but then you do this which is causing errors:

      if (ECN == TRUE) {
        g_slippage_436 = 10.0 * g_slippage_436;
        TP = 10.0 * TP;
        SL = 10.0 * SL;
        Slippage = 10 * Slippage;
        MaxSpread = 10.0 * MaxSpread;
     }

The first code block code changes g_slippage_436 to 0.0001 (because we are 5-Digit users). Then the second block multiplies 0.0001 * 10 so the result = 0.0010 (10 pips). The global point is now 0.0010 (10 pips)

You then multiply the TP and SL by 10 so these variables are now TP 80 & SL 180.

Later on you adjust these variables to doubles with this:

g_price_628 = Bid - TP * g_slippage_436;

where TP * g_slippage_436 has become 80 * 0.0010 and = 0.0800 (800 hundred pips) :(

If you have this code block:

   if (Point == 0.00001) g_slippage_436 = 0.0001;
  else {
     if (Point == 0.001) g_slippage_436 = 0.01;
     else g_slippage_436 = Point;

and you multiply the TP and SL throughout the code with the adjusted point, then you do not need to multiply the TP and the SL by 10 in the init().

I have only had a quick look but I can tell you this code will not function as-is on ECN brokers. If I get some time tomorrow I can take a longer look through what you've got.

Regards,

JonDgls

Dacky · March 8, 2011

JonDgls,

Thank you very much for your advise....seems we have genius coder here...i not a programer... just look in to the code and modified...may be alot of thing to be correct....BTW...i not giving up yet.

Happy trading

⭐ musketeer · March 8, 2011

best way to get 4,5 digits broker:

in the init

myPoint = SetPoint();

double SetPoint()
{
  double mPoint;
  
  if (Digits < 4)
     mPoint = 0.01;
  else
     mPoint = 0.0001;
  
  return(mPoint);
}

then just use myPoint when need it...

Edited March 8, 2011 by musketeer

⭐ musketeer · March 8, 2011

also do not forget to normalize...

 StopLossLevel = NormalizeDouble(StopLossLevel, Digits);

CiDER · March 8, 2011

@Dacky

Yes ECN is set to true. (I'm testing on an ECN broker)

@musketeer

Where would you add that function?

I also had to change this line to get it to run:

if (Symbol() != "EUR-CHF" || Period() != PERIOD_M5)

To:

if (Symbol() != "EURCHF" || Period() != PERIOD_M5)

I read the thread. I cannot get mine to trade on multiple pairs. rotating out of testing until someone posts about further development. thanks.

jondgls · March 10, 2011

Hello Dacky,

Here is an updated version for you. Please test on tickdata if you can.

V34 change log:

Fixed Point calculation
Fixed Slippage, TP, SL & MaxSpread double conversions
Fixed hideclosesell(); - Would have closed any EURCHF order with set TP reached (MagicNumber added).
Fixed hideclosebuy(); - Would have closed any EURCHF order with set TP reached (MagicNumber added).
Fixed TP variable - Only Internal_TP was working.
Fixed a few Internal_TP - Missing.
Fixed hidesl option - didn't work
Fixed hidetp option - didn't work
Fixed NewsFilter - Was always checking news regardless of "NewsFilter=FALSE".
Fixed Lot size calculation
Added true ECN compatibility - ECN servers require you to send the order without TP & SL first, then modify the order with these variables.
Added Order Comment variable
Simplified Magic Number variable - Enter one and 4 will be generated in init()

-can`t belive something like this.....do you see what I see..? no loss...?:-O:-O:-O:-O

don`t try with MM...account blower..:D

Ce-ai folosit pt. rezultatele alea ? SL 0 ? Hmm- SL 18 TP 8. Unbelievable...

I can see the problem- the last order was closed with a 41 pip loss- that would not have been possible if the 18 pip SL was working. The EA is not closing the orders at SL and is only closing in profit. Under these circumstances no wonder they're all wins.

..yeah..that`s true...internal SL don`t work...but why TP function on internal..?..starting BT with visible SL and TP...DAMN...LOOKS NICE...
