ZigZag breakdance EA

Post by lhDT »

Hi All,

The description is explained here : http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... f=12&t=136.
I couldn't wait so I "tried" to code this into an EA.
Although backtests have positive results on E/U M15, seems we can improve them by using a 40pips jumping SL.

I didn't get it to work with the Steve's shell, so OOTB the EA is using a 20SL and a 80TP.

If somebody can look at it and maybe try to improve it, it would be soooo cool ! :)

Thx,
Lionel

As you can see on the attached graphs in E/U & G/U, the EA should have taken the rallyes launched by the BCE news today.
Need help for coding !
Ea currently place a sell when price move below previous Low and above previous hi, but to be sure it takes it on time, it is better to put sell stop and buy stop to avoid "server busy" messages.
Of course, when hi/low change current "stops" need to be replaced by new ones.

Dragos, Steve or somebody else ? Ready to code ?

thx,
Lionel
