Search for 'medium' and 'higher' timeframe settings....

I have been running the latest version with the medium and higher timeframes set (240/1440, 10 bar lookback) and have been very impressed with the results attached. Practically no DD at all, 2 closed losing trades, and 33 profitable ones. Closed and still open trades included in the stats. A lot less trades than without these settings as you would expect...

Steve:
Congratulations to you and Chris on your 42nd. I hope you have many more. My wife and I are going on our 58th and still hope for many more.
Thanks again for all you have contributed with your coding and this fantastic forum filled with so many talented and giving people.
Roger

It's quite good too with TP & SL

RAD: pending orders with SL: 50 and TP:50
Trend trade: SL:100 and TP:100

"Want to see some really good trades. When you see this pop onto the screen load up the Brink’s truck, put a 2nd mortgage on your house, and pile it on because this baby is going to run. Wavy lines with the big arrow up/or down. Just bet the bank because I have learned to love these trades."

It would be interesting to have a "Trend Arrow + Wavy" option in the HGB as a separate setting. Then set up a demo to trade only these signals.

Whatchuthink?

Just to let you know guys, that I started coding this tonight. It is not hard to do.

Then the events from Pakistan knocked the stuffing out of me. I will be ok in the morning. Just for now, I do not feel like any coding.

Thanks to all of you for your best wishes. Chris and I had a lovely day, and I will tell you more about it soon in the Steve's Hour of Need thread in our Lounge.

More tomorrow. Just not tonight.

What TF are you trading on?

I would be nice if we could find some standards when communicating, so it's easier to understand.
Like:
Trading on TF: 60
medium TF: 240
higher TF: 1440
max DD:
losing trades:
winning traders:
pairs traded:
running time:
etc. (maybe we could come here to an agreement)

or even post the set files when commenting own trades.
Yesterday I made 300 pips in 5h and then lost 250 when the euryen came down. This information is not of just of no use for you.

Kind regards.

Steve, would appreciate if you would indulge me with this question....

EAv2 if you compare lines 2182 - 2194 you calculate stop and take for Buystop when (TradeComment == WaveTradeComment && WavePendingTrade)....

If you then look at 2277 - 2286 stop and take is NOT calculated for ( TradeComment == WaveTradeComment && WavePendingTrade

Trying to trace the cause for permanent 130 order errors on GP Demo - I presently only use multiple pending orders for wave type trade. Error presently only occurs for OP_BUYSTOP and not for OP_SELLSTOP and the only difference I could locate are lines 2188 and 2189

Thanks in advance!
