Scalping New York

[trader689]

don't know what went wrong for me, trading with the amended version of the EA, I had a ~650 pip loss today, global prime demo

Same here. Anyhow, early days.

I see. Well, the good thing is at least it's now taking a mixture of buys and sells rather than just sells only

That was already answered. Read the posts.

Now we have to see if the early success was despite the bloop that Max spotted, rather than because of it. We shall see.

Yes, I get that it was probably because of the fix of the bloop that Maximilian spotted - it wasn't really a question from my behalf, just an observation that it's good that the fix seems to be working as intended - sorry if it was phrased vaguely

interesting that your demo (the one that I was able to check, namely 2295281) seems to have avoided a lot of the pairs that I had sells on that promptly turned sharply upwards today

Anyways, as you said fingers crossed going forwards

I noticed that the highest and lowest upl display was not resetting after sending a fresh basket. I have posted a fixed version in post 1. This is an update with no significance as it does not affect Scalpy's performance, so you can safely ignore it.

DIYers, do a search for this comment:
//No need to continue if the orders have been sent

Insert this underneath the code block that follows that comment:

Code: Select all

   //We have reached here so a new basket will be sent,
   //so reset the upl display variables
   highestCashUpl=-100000;
   GlobalVariableSet(highestCashGV, highestCashUpl);
   lowestCashUpl=100000;
   GlobalVariableSet(lowestCashGV, lowestCashUpl);

I have also added some code to make sure that Scalpy cannot function if you have disabled experts. Scroll up to the top of OnTimer() and insert this underneath the block that forces further closures if any failed during basket closures:

Code: Select all

   if (!IsExpertEnabled() )
      return;

It probably is not necessary but i's and t's are best dotted and crossed when dealing with Empty4.

I shall start work on the multiple trading periods this weekend.

Hi,
I really like the pairing "Scalpy-CSS"
this happened following simply the strongest currencies for today......
I tryed to go for H4 tf but Scalpy didn't started,I think that for bigger tf it's better....
so I did all trades on H1.....
may be you must calibrate TP relative to how many cross pairs Scalpy matches ,
if i choice two or three currencies the relative cross are about 9-10
and Scalpy matches about three or four trades,so I reduce TP from 100 to 36-60.....
today were 6 sessions......not bad only for looking every hour trend
cheers
