Does it matter how Bob's indicator is named for it to work for this EA?

I am using the latest one V70 and it has some signals but the EA seems like not trading.

I just caught a message from STB that it could not send a GAud buy because of trade not being enabled in the properties thingy. It fucking well was the last time I bloody looked. 10 minutes ago.

So I checked the charts. Most of the ea's had been deleted.

Be warned. The shit is really playing up now.

Sorry about the language. Go to a different forum if it offends you.

:xm:
I had to can my M15 Fractalated Bob demo as it will no longer do anything I tell it to. I read somewhere that the major issue with Build 711 is a memory leak and that leak has something to do with using libraries. I changed my M15 FBob demo to use CSS (which I guess uses Baluda's CSS Lib). All of a sudden I start having issues everywhere with all 711 platforms. So I checked my memory usage and my M15 FBob demo was using nearly 2GB of memory!!

So I thought - ok I will change it back so CSS isn't used until they fix the clusterf***. But I can't. It won't let me apply a template, let alone apply a template to all charts. Unbelieveable. So I guess that one's on hold for a while. :arrrg:
I was so fed up with this rubbish and attempting to trade has been impossible...I finally changed back to Build 670. I just closed each platform, pasted the terminal.exe file for build 670 into each demo's setup files and opened the platforms again.
No problems at all, just make sure you say no to the windows UAC message until we know their has been a new build.

edit: I tried to attach the terminal.exe file but it's not allowed. sorry

Thanks Shelley - I didn't know it was so simple as I expected there would be more needed than the exe replacement. I'll do that.

Thanks,
Dave.

Dave, it was much simpler than I thought as well. Since I changed all my platforms back to 670 not one of them has crashed.

Sorry, I was looking how to revert back Empty4 to its previous build 670. And I spent 2 hours with google it but no way to find the procedure to do that.
I copied manually an old terminal.exe of previous version Empty4 but no success. Because when I opened Empty4 it says that it has build 711 again

Could anyone here tell could in detail how I revert all Empty4 platform to build 670, while preserving the same broker account ? Anyone could post the complete set of old files
Thank you

Stop your terminal with build 710,click its button, you`ll see yor broker name or terminal exe.Click mouse right then left button to prperties, once more left to button file displacement,delete terminal exe(710) copy and paste terminal 670.That`s all.Restart.
Good luck

It's not sufficient to copy the old terminal.exe
Someone said that in Empty4 Shortcut files (properties) you should have this command line:

"C:\Directory_Empty4\terminal.exe" /skipupdate

This way you could avoid background automatic updates from Empty4 to 711 build, when you launch it

It was sufficient for me...all my platforms are working perfectly back on 670

I think that's because you have that UAC stuff enabled Shelley - if you don't then you won't even get the message - it just upgrades every time you restart unless you use the /skipupdate switch.

Oh fair enough...I'm just clicking no on the UAC for now to stop the updates

It really is a joke that we should even be doing this sort of stuff just to keep trading :evil:
