Forex Strategy Builder Professional v2.7.3 is released.

Download page: http://forexsb.com

Hello Traders,
We are excited to present Forex Strategy Builder Professional v2.7.3. This version comes with updated Expert Advisors code to v20, which is now more robust and reliable for live trading.

Improvements:
• Exported Expert Advisors calculate automatically how many bars the expert needs for providing precise indicator signals.
• The exported EA for Empty4 has unique Magic Number. Using different magic numbers in the experts prevents conflicts on running several experts on one market.
• The indicator chart does not scroll to the end after resizing of the program’s window or showing/hiding the info panel.
• Improved the Russian, German and Bulgarian translation.

Fixes:
• Fixed an issue with calculating Moving Average with horizontal shift.
• Fixed the recalculation of the Indicator Chart after data reloading.
• Fixed memory leak after long use of the Indicator Chart.
• Added partial Hungarian translation.

You have to re-export you expert advisors after receiving the update of the MQL code. Please check the “Experts” tab of the Empty4 Terminal after running an expert. The expert will calculate the required bars and will show a log record. An example massage is “The expert uses 750 bars”. The used bar range is between 50 and 3000. Please report any problems or unusual behavior of the exported expert advisors.

It is useful to compare the strategy performance on data with the same symbol / period, but form different broker, demo or real account or from different time zone.

This allows setting of lower Closing Time Advance parameter for faster markets and lower time frames.

* The program shows LTF (Longer time frame) info for the indicators in the Strategy Overview page.

Forex Strategy Builder Professional v3.4.1, EA Code v32

Hello Traders,

Forex Strategy Builder Professional comes with new features and new Expert Advisors code.

Changes in FSB:
- Added "Export all Strategies to Empty4/5" options in the toolbar and in Strategy menu.
- Added a "Multi Tester" tool in the Repository page. Features:
- Recalculation of multiple strategies from a folder or form a collection.
- Collecting the recaclulated strategies in an output collection.
- Possibilities to override the strategies Profile, Data Source, Symbol or Period
- The strategies can be filtered out with the help of Acceptance Criteria.
- All strategies can be optimized.
- Added a "Save As"button for the strategy collections.
- Added an option "Change data files time zone" in the Data Download page. When it is off, FSB keeps the original data time zone (UTC) when there is no UTC support in some Windows installations.
- Added LTF options and vertical shift to "Previous High Low" indicator. It allows interesting settups as for example "Enter long 10 pips below the yesterdays Low".

Fixed Bugs in FSB:
- Fixed unnecessary additional signal shift of LTF indicators with some logic rules.
- Fixed setting of the Editor's page indicator chart Volume color.
- Fixed a crash in Data Download page for Windows installations that do not support UTC time zone. This problem was noticed in Windows copies designed to be used in only one country.
- Fixed misspelling of PositionPriceDependence enumeration. The option "BuyLowerSelHigher" is replaced with "BuyLowerSellHigher". The current indicators can used the older option, but we recommend the new variant for the future custom indicators.
- Fixed changing values in the Indicator Options dialog by using the mouse wheel.

Changes in the MQL code:
- Removed all external prerequisites for the EA: Object.mqh, StdLibWrr.mqh, ArrayObj.mqh, WinUser32.mqh, stdlib.mqh, EasyXml.mqh. Now all you need for trading the EA is contained in the exported file.
- The expert loading is faster, which can make the difference in case of recompilation and restart during trading.
- Added Min_Data_Bars parameter for the users who want to increase the number of bars loaded by the EA.
- Removed the included XML version of the strategy in the code. The strategy creation code is generated by FSB and placed directly in the EA code during the export.
- Unified the strategy trading logic code in a single file used in both Empty4 and MT5 experts. This improvement guaranties the nearest possible trading behavior in both MT versions.
- Fixed a typo in mql indicators option "IsDefaultGroupAll". The old variant "IsDeafultGroupAll" is still working but deprecated.
