- Most Forex traders lose all their money.
- Using the robot posted here in trading Forex does not guarantee success.
- Trading this robot could lead to serious financial loss.
- Trading this robot without understanding its underlying trading strategies guarantees traders will lose their money.
- This is not a set-and-forget ea; there is no such thing and anyone who tries to claim there is, is either stupid or lying. This ea requires frequent manual intervention.
- At best, a trading robot is only 90% as good as the manual strategy it trades. At best. At worst, it can be much less effective. If the strategy is rubbish, so is the robot.
- To trade this robot, you have to understand:
- How to use EA's.
- Bob's HGI indicator. Download an read about it at http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... =88&t=3964
- Dottybot.Read about her at http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... =93&t=4797
HGBnD is an extension of the idea of replacing DottyBot's nonlagdot with alternative trade triggers. Details are in the user guide attached. You need to download two libraries because HGBnD will not run without them:
- hgi_lib.ex4 from Bob's post 1 at http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... =88&t=3964. You can put it in either your Experts or Libraries folder.
- HGBnD core library.mqh from http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... =87&t=5077. This must go in your Include folder.
It can be a but of a bugger getting the bot to display the peak hilo lines (using Sixths and/or the buy low sell high filters) and chart feedback properly. If you experience difficulties:
- load the bot into the editor
- press the F7 key to recompile the code.
This version is a revamp of the original, so skip the early pages. Discussion about the revamp start at http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... 45#p152045
Have fun.

EA coding
I receive may requests to code EA's. Traders, if I code your EA for free, then I will share it here. If you want me to code your EA without sharing, then my fee is $100 payable into my paypal account. I explain why at http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... ?f=15&t=79, at the bottom of the post.
