V 1k is in post 1. This has the option to tell Desky to trade only at the open of a new candle. How useful this will be is questionable, so please read the details in the user guide.
I have included a note about adding non TDesk compatible indicators into the mix via iCustom() calls, at the end of the guide.
Desky draft 1 is complete now, so start setting up your demos for testing to start after the markets re-open.

Bloop alert
davista is hacking the code and just emailed with a bloop spot, so I fixed it an uploaded the fix to post 1.
It is an easy change to make. Go to line 3530 which is:
SendSellGrid(symbol, OP_SELLLIMIT, ask - (DistanceFromMarket / factor), Lot );
This should be:
SendSellGrid(symbol, OP_SELLLIMIT, bid + (DistanceFromMarket / factor), Lot );
Thanks David.

Seems the EA is only opening one trade, can we have it open more than one trade like on a fresh signal?

Desky. TDesk's trading drone.
I've loaded the latest version of Desky and TDesk, out of the box settings, but trades are being closed as soon as they're opened, I've disabled "Close trade on opposite signal" and set a TP and SL for the time being.

I found the reason for the immediate closure but didn't have time to look through the code:
It's the option to CloseOnOppositeSignal. Set it to false and Desky works as proposed.
As Steve pointed out, Desky is in development and therefore, he wrote in the code:
And Steve is totally right! Look at the pace of the development of TDesk and Desky. This whole thing is only six weeks old (!)and look where we are already!
Give those guys a breath, be humble to have this forum and be happy to be part of this whole fx evolution!
Most of us are only consuming what very few brilliant minds code in their spare time!
Just saying...
Cheers :hi:

CloseTradesOnFlatSignal: this tells Desky to close all trades when the signal changes from LONG or SHORT back to FLAT. You define how TDesk defines FLAT for an exit in Tdesk's SuperSignalsExitOperator input. I have mine set to MultiSignalsOnly as the default of MultiORSoloSignals was causing trades to close too quickly.
I made this change in tradedesk and solved the problem.
Cheers.

I'm not complaining, I'm merely pointing out a bug, if I had the know how I would have fixed it myself, the amount of time and effort these guys put in is beyond spectacular, I am more than happy to donate to the cause which would be my contribution, as I'm constantly on the road so don't have time to learn code.

I've spotted a couple of simple reversed logic errors in Desky which I believe is causing the instant closing of new trades when CloseOnOppositeSignal is set to TRUE. I sent Steve a PM and I'm sure he'll look into this and verify my proposed fix, but if you want to try a fix yourself in the meantime then this is what worked for me:Ehrenmat » Mon Oct 15, 2018 6:51 am wrote:I found the reason for the immediate closure but didn't have time to look through the code:

Go to line 3418 which is:
CloseAllTrades(symbol, OP_BUY);
This should be:
CloseAllTrades(symbol, OP_SELL);
Then go to line 3435 which is:
CloseAllTrades(symbol, OP_SELL);
This should be:
CloseAllTrades(symbol, OP_BUY);
