Peaky on Steroids

Just when I was thinking it would be great if peaky could be flexible to trade multi tf, multi pairs, multi etcetc.

Of coz it happened, leave it to you Steve. Much Thanks.

Awesome work! Thank you! :hi:

PS: When I set TradeTF4=false, error occurs: "array out of range in 'Peaky on Steroids.mq4' (533,17)"

This could be caused by a copy-paste-forgot to edit error at line 531. If you can edit the code, just replace TradeTF1 with TradeTF4 in that line.

Another bug:

On one of my demo accounts there is something going on with buy trades, when the buy stop orders are filled, the EA closes them immediately - all the sell trades are going normally. On my other demo this is not happening - or I should say it happened only once, but after that the bug haven't appeared again. The difference between the 2 account are the buffer pips and take profit - the one with the bug is using the sixths as TP, the other uses fixed TP. I don't know what could cause it, because the TP is correctly set on all the orders, but somehow the EA decides to close the buys immediately. I'm trying to track down this bug.

The early close bug is probably caused by the use of Bid in LookForTradeClosure(). This should be bid.

Damn, Steve, but you're good!

I've been thinking of trying to write an MTF version of Peaky, but couldn't work out which functions needed to be adjusted for MTF usage (yeah, I'm a bit slow).

Just took a quick squizz, and have already learnt how setup the variables for each TF more elegantly and efficiently. Thank you!

I'm off to setup a new demo

Take care,
&
Have fun!

Great teamwork SHF, got a demo setup now for M1, M5, M15, M30 using Sixths for TP.... Instantly received a good handful of correct Peaky looking orders.

First trade M1 GPBUSD has already filled with a 9pip TP which looks about right.This is going to fun

Agreed. Everything seems to work as designed!

As a possible improvement for version 1c (or later), it would be good to include a (timeframe-specific) swap filter: since we expect particularly the longer timeframes to be in a drawdown for an extended period, before the market turns back, we might only want to open trades in their positive swap direction.

But I'm sure this has already been considered.
