Fix added to post 1 of Desky's thread. Sing out if it is still not correct.

Read the effing manual, ok?

Afterprime is the official SHF broker. Read about them at https://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?p=175790#p175790.

I still suffer from OCCD. Good thing, really.

Anyone here feeling generous? My paypal account is always in the market for a tiny donation. [email protected] is the account.

Hi Thomas,
I put the standard tdesk on the platform but the news still doesn’t appear, I even set up a new Empty4 with all the default settings and downloaded all the files but the problem persists, I honestly don’t know what I’m doing wrong or what is creating this problem, this never happened to me.
Is there any other way to find out about my problem?
Cheers,
RMSSC
You have PM.
Happy pippin, Thomas :-BD

I really need your help, the new implementation of the trailing stop in conjunction with break even, in my case it is not working as I expected, I am probably doing something wrong which is the most certain because I doubt there are any code errors.
In the images below shows how I have configured it.
What I imagined this configuration to do was the following:
1º Reaching a profit of 40 pips, a stop loss of 30 pips is created by the break even, which in fact does so in an exemplary manner;
2nd When creating the 30 pips stop loss and reaching 40 pips or higher the trailing stop starts to follow the price at a distance of 15 pips increasing the stop loss, I am not getting this done, except in some trades , but for most it didn't
So I asked a charitable soul to elude me because for weeks I have tried to change the settings and I have not been successful.

Now I have a question for Thomas, on tdesk the news report has stopped appearing, will it be a problem on my part? It had never happened to me and this happens to me on all active platforms.

Cheers,
RMSSC :hi:
Hello Steve
Sory but i really need your help, the new implementation of the trailing stop in conjunction with break even, in my case it is not working as I expected, I am probably doing something wrong which is the most certain because I doubt there are any code errors.

I am having an issue to get singals expired after 15 minutes. I use only one signal->Solo. So I have disabled Super- and Multi-Singal stuff and enabled the Solo singal stuff. Set MaxSoloSignalsAgeMinutes=15
Still it shows:

I would be greateful for a hint what is wrong.

Hi biobier.

Where in the manual is written that Solo signals change after MaxSoloSignalsAgeMinutes?

Hi Thomas,

it sounded to me like it will clear the signal:
MaxSoloSignalsAgeMinutes
Whether to show the signal ages and when to automatically clear them in order to
show only relatively fresh signals. Setting the second input to "0" disables the
automatic clearing and shows them always.
But seems I miss understandod and this is just controlling the display of the age. Will handle the reset to flat then in the indi.

Exactly. I will make this more clear in the next version of the manual.

You can also use the MaxSignalAgeMinutes input of Desky.
