"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.

Hi Steve, First of all, thanks for jumping on this so soon! Itching to get my grubby mitts all over it.
Secondly,I've been doing some more thinking about this mod. Would it be too much work to add an additional filter that will allow additional trades only if an open Trendy+Wavy trade already exists?
Lastly, Happy Anniversary!

Thanks
Bryan

Just a thought.

I'm going to try looking for overall direction on higher timeframes [W1, D1, H4], and then setting the bot to just take trades in the direction of the higher timeframe.

So, let's say you have wavey lines above price and/or a down arrow on D1 chart, then attach the bot to a H4 and/or H1 chart, but only allowing it to trade short.

Would appreciate the thoughts of the senior members on this.

I've had a couple of beers before posting this, so please feel free to flame me!!!!

Cheers,

Rob

Hi All. Just as a matter of interest. I have HGB on 3 demo account. 2 on 4 hour charts OOTB, 1 on a daily charts. The daily one is very stable. much less draw-down and stilling kicking but. The one on the daily chart have only been running from the beginning of the week. Will give feedback now and again on the daily HGB.
Thanks
Wapen

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!

Nice spot.

Thanks.

V 2a is in post 1, with the combined trend and wavy line feature. Also with a fix for a trailing stop fault that Radar sent me last week. Thanks Radar.

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...
No trend-trades?
How many trades in totall?
What length of time?

This was over 38 trades since Monday when the medium and higher timeframes became available. I'm thinking I may have this set up incorrectly as I am trading on H4, should the medium timeframe be higher than 240 and the higher one bigger again (would I have to go to weekly?), is this why there are no trend trades? Any road up, performance is great anyway.

Maybe skip the higher TF, and set the daily as the medium TF?
Or keep your setting and trade the H1.

Choices...
