After 2 weeks of drawdown , now this week, the 3rd bout of mostly larger profitible trades. 1 step backwards, 2 steps forward. Not always that way, but don't over leverage.
Please ignore the fib pattern, I use that in manual trading. All listed open trades taken with HGB on H4, with semi manual/auto exiting.

Duplicate orders
HGB is sending duplicates often on my set-up. I know this happens so I reduced the lot size.
Here is a snippet from the experts log that shows two orders being places when only one was required.
The indicator is deinitializing and this is what is causing it.
Also below are the reason codes. Code 7 is "A new template has been applied". The EA and platform has been running without any intervention.
I added some troubleshooting code, seen here as "Area 2..."
Hopefully this is helpful info. Also - I haven't looked at the code but I thought I'd post this for the coders who have some time on their hands. Hopefully this helps. Steve - have you had this occur on your platform? I'm using build 765, but this has happened with previous version as well.
edit:
template code is in IsChartRefreshNeeded()
And it is called here....
Suggest we need a delay in here to let things settled down, but not sure. I could add troubleshooting code to see what is going on, if you think this will help let me know.
edit - did more reading - why not use ChartRedraw()? I assume there were issues with that since the code indicates the template was another method....

IsChartRefreshNeeded();
CloseAndDeleteTradesOnFalseSignal();
}//if (CloseOnFalseSignal)

HGB has been rather trendy of late. Exit when a yellow wavy says so.

HolyGrailBob has not been so profitable for me in the last 4 weeks
I'm using OOTB settings,H4 Timeframe
Broker Demo FxPro
wondering if someone that has been profitable in the last month could help me or point me to some good setup
I've read all HGI and HGB Threads,
I've been studying many different setup combinations in the last 2 weeks,but still I have to find what I'm lookin' for
and I don't know if it would be better to stop demo HGB OOTB setup H4 Timeframe
I trade AUDCHF\AUDUSD\
CADCHF\CADJPY\
EURGBP\EURNZD\EURJPY\EURAUD\EURUSD\
GBPCHF\GBPUSD\
NZDUSD\NZDJPY\
USDCAD\USDJY\USDCHF
maybe I could add another account with different nuances of the EA
other EAs,such as PcPm and PcPm on S , are working fine
please let me know if I'm missing something good,or maybe July is simply a bad month for this sys?
I'm puzzled 'cos it seems I'm the one and only not making money with HGB
this forum is full of helpful people,and I appreciate very much great traders and coders sharing their works here.
Thanks in advance
Best Regards

Duplicate orders
I replaced the part of the code where it saves the chart template and then re-applies it. This was causing the duplicate orders.AnotherBrian » Fri Jul 03, 2015 11:45 am wrote:HGB is sending duplicates often on my set-up. I know this happens so I reduced the lot size.

This is original
ChartSaveTemplate(0,"HGB_temp_Template");
ChartApplyTemplate(0,"HGB_temp_Template");
I changed it to
ChartRedraw();
It seems to have solved the problem. I'm hoping other coders can chime in here - will this accomplish the same thing? What I am not sure about is the "refreshing" requirement of HGI and is ChartRedraw accomplishes this.

bippo i recommend you try the WRB HGB variant available here:
http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... =87&t=4328
it is a profitable variation of HGB and is doing well

Hi PT,
Try restarting your platform if you get that error. it works for me when the error starts to occur.
Cheers,
Tim
