If it is a matter of Empty4 built 427 and if you have Cowboy IBFX demo I can upload built 409 and up-grader to 419.
Please let me know.

Mine working flawlessly in Empty4 built 427.
PLease compile the EA loading into the metaeditor and check if that works.

Hi,

Yesterday i also downloaded 1k and read the docu in the first post. Shelley opened the same six trades (at the moment -120pips). I think i will read the source code for better understanding the EA and to find out how to adjust the settings so that it fits my tradingstyle. (long way to go).
Yesterday, when i deaktivated the EA and right klicked on the chart to edit the EA settings (F7) nothing happens. I couldn't change the settings. The only solution was to delete shelley from the chart und to drag it again into the chart (loosing my settings). I have also the new build of Empty4. Has anyone made the same observation?

see you guys

I thought I have downloaded the wrong version this early morning, so I went back to post #1 and downloaded the EA again. I immediately installed the EA and closed down my Empty4 and re-opened it and guess what, it worked. I was curious so went back to the earlier version v1k and it also worked. My guess is, you need to close Empty4 to have everything refreshed before the new version works. I hope this helps the rest of the folks. Cheers :)

But actually, they are clones of each other at the moment because the Swiss Bank has locked the CHF to the EUR. So, in my opinion, it's no use to run both of them. One is enough. It is a 100 % correlation.

Hi Vivaldi and all others.

Well if you think in that direction, you could remove all heavily related pairs from the list and just trade a handful of less related pairs.
Would be interesting to set up two Shelleys trading in tandem like that.
Lets start to to pick a list of the 6 less correlated pairs :?:
Or maybe better build one for london open NY and tokyo and chose the pairs who are mostly effected during those sessions?

Just my 2 franks

Hi kenobi,

i just copied the EA to the correspondig Empty4 folder and if you not restart Empty4 you won't see the new indicators/experts or whatever. But its tricky when you allready got the old version and copied the new one and you see shelley but visually the old version. Interessting that it won't function without a restart....
Thx for the info.

Not sure if the problem is related to the issues resolved by Matt's script, as mentioned on page 1 of this thread.

I'm not really familiar with scripts and how they work, so I posted this in Matt's thread, if anyone can enlighten me a bit further, please do...I apologise in advance if I have been a complete dunce about this!!
I have not really used scripts before, so I have a seriously Dummy question regarding this particular script!!

I have upgraded Empty4 to build 427 and since then v1k of Shelley EA is opening/closing trades instantly.
Steve has indicated that this is the sort of problem that occurs if this script is not run when a new platform is installed.

So, I decided to install a brand new platform, and placed the script in the experts/script folder.
When I opened Empty4, I attached the script to the chart and nothing happened. I right clicked on the chart and a message came up asking if I wanted to stop running the script.
So the assumption is it is working.

My question is: assuming what I have done above is correct, do I need to attach the script to every chart I want to trade on?
Also after a minute or so an error message popped up:

Failed: AUDJPY( 1440 10080) AUDUSD( 1440 10080) CADJPY( 1440 10080) CHFJPY( 1440 10080) EURAUD( 1440 10080) EURCAD( 1440 10080) EURCHF( 1440 10080) EURGBP( 1440 10080) EURJPY( 1440 10080) EURNZD( 1440 10080) EURUSD( 1440 10080) GBPCHF( 1440 10080) GBPJPY( 15 60) GBPUSD( 15 30 60) USDCAD( 15 30 60 240 43200) USDJPY( 5 15 30 43200)

There is no tick data for any of these pairs in the timeframes indicated.

Also, I attached the EA again and still opened/closed trades immediately.

Any guidance here will be appreciated!

Thanks
