Isn't it great when a market cooperates and all those multi-layer trades line up like little toy soldiers, to be picked off one by one.

Read the effing manual, ok?

I still suffer from OCCD. Good thing, really.

Exactly 400 pips later, I have closed my trades and most of the instances of HGB are dutifully sleeping.
I use my close all script to close the trades and there was immediate conflict with HGB trying to reopening trades that the script had closed until he found that I have reached my profit target for the day. Guess what? It is no longer possible to turn of EA's and then run a script; the script doesn't work. Yet another moment of genius from the cretins at Crapperquotes. Such brilliance leaves me astounded.
I shall develop management software as we progress. I will get the management software to communicate with HGB so he knows not to try to fight back. This is in the future. For now, put up with the difficulties and enjoy the rain of green pips.

I noticed this. I don't remember what it was like before.. Could see trades open and close after putting close all script on. Had to delete script in the end. And while we're at it why did they get rid of the remove script function when right clicking the mouse. I wish they would leave it alone. They are so annoyingSteveHopwood » Wed Dec 10, 2014 7:42 pm wrote:Exactly 400 pips later, I have closed my trades and most of the instances of HGB are dutifully sleeping.

Lost a bundle yesterday due to StochyB, made it all up with trading the HGI signals.
Enter 10 pendings after a wave or trend-signal using Steve's script (adapted with magic# and comment) and let HGB do the managing.
My parallel HGB-demo did just as well, chapeau!
Time to think about taking it to the next level....?

Along with the H4 trials I am doing (going well), I have also got a M5 trial going trading trend arrows only to next opposing arrow. There are some very promising results from this but I am getting some trade openings without signals and a few closures I can not figure out. I have checked and rechecked settings and have not found anything. Reset demo with v1u and just got another un-signaled trade. I am using every tick mode = false, to reduce 'interim signals'. I can post screen shots if needed.
is anyone else having similar problems? Is there any reason that HGB will not handle M5?

Started a new demo over lunch when version t arrived, and these are the results so far, OOTB except 50 pip SL and TP on range trades. Pretty viewing...

Thanks for the recent additions including the ATR
I've just setup a few demo's to test the ATR Stoploss & TakeProfit and noticed what might be a cut & paste error...
I think the TrendStopLoss etc. should be TrendTakeProfit..
Thanks, JP

Code: Select all
double CalculateTakeProfit(int type, double price, string comment)

{
