Hopelessly confused by TDesk or Desky? Ask here.

TDesk does not manage your trades for you. It merely sends signals to the desky drone "TDesk trading partner EA". So if you want to set a stop loss you must do so in the "Trading partner EA" under your "trade exit strategies" input field.

Hope it clarifies.

Hello Leon,
Thanks so much for the help, I am always learning and I was too silly in the manual everything is very well explained

.
I deserve a reprimand

for not paying due attention, I think I know everything and know nothing.
I hope to start taking advantage of all these teachings.
Cheers

Been thinking about this for an hour. I am not sure if the below works.

I would like to EXIT when VOL (BetterVolume.ex) equal or less than 500.

- UBD set both LONG and SHORT = Equal or less than 500
- NullifyDirectionalSignal
- ForceExitOnDisagreeSignal

Is this the best way?

Hi.

This might work due to the internal logic of UBD. Below 500 you have a LONG and SHORT signal at the same time. UBD should react with a SHORT signal. Nevertheless I find it confusing. I would create a LONG signal above 500 and a SHORT signal below 0.

The rest is OK and will work (nullifying and exiting). Mind that the ForceExit only works if the Super signal is FLAT. Best you create a VetoSignal identical to the ForceExit signal. Then it really "forces" the exit.

Cheers
Thomas

I couldn't get it to work as my concept, but it's okay. Using VOL wasn't a good idea anyway.

Why do you urge me to explain the concept to you then?

Sorry, I was just testing various indicators could be used as EXIT when it reach a set level. I couldn't get that working so I am looking for alternative setup that can program for LONG and SHORT and then Invert / CloseOnOpposite.

It seems Desky is showing "IsGlobalPrimeOrECNCriminals = True".
It's a new install, newest Desky, default settings (ignore the EveryTickMode)
I am using GP Demo

Please let me know if I am the only one getting this.

Jesus, or his nearest equivalents, wept buckets of blood.

lamdog330, I have been trying to ignore your increasingly moronic posts with ever mounting difficulty.

This one has broken my patience.

Of course the ea is going to show that you are using GP if you are using a GP demo. What the hell else do you expect it to show? "No, I am an all singing, all dancing turtle?"

Once upon a time, presumably a long time ago, you once showed yourself worthy of being a member of that group whose contributions are worth reading. Clearly this was a mistake on my part.

Shut up and stop asking imbecilic questions or I will remove your ability to post anything at all.

Hi, I appreciate the great work being done by the creators of this wonderful tool.

I have noticed that when i have UseGridTrading=True with FillTheGaps=True and use ATRForGrid=True, when the market retraces and and wants to Fill the gaps it will use the value from DistanceBetweenTradesPips and not the GridATRDivisor

Has anyone else encountered this?

Sorry. I read this and then forgot to do anything about it. The fix is in post 1 of Desky's thread - V 3v.
