Nanningbob 10.1 The EA is here

[squalou]

If we break the 1.3145 low established on Oct 4, we'll have to set DaysBack to.... 400(!!) to uncover D1 levels further south... !!
Next stop at 1.3055, then 1.2970.

Sq

DING DING !

Massive EU drop down to 1.3058...

EU now taking a breathe...
40p bounce off 3058,
and now pointing down again...
will complete the "hook" back to retest 3058 level, and then .....

We are now looking at the Low of the Year back in .... January : ==> 1.2970 ?

Or a massive bounce up to 3164, which has been a very good Support earlier today to finally break and produce this massive drop;
3164 would now logically play as a strong Resistance.
I would probably ignore 3146, as it was ignored today...

Ladies and Gentlemen, please fasten your seat belts and get ready for the next RollerCoaster tour !

I love S/Rs !




As you can see, there is a lot to develop with JUST S/R LEVELS ALONE.

Latest update in post 1.

I have stopped the pending price line moving. The only time it is deleted is at the start of the D1 candle.

thanks Steve, i'll try that one.

Not sure this solves it though, as i had TradingTimeFrame set to 1440 already (ootb), but didn't help...
We'll see how it goes.

I am experimenting the change i had suggesting, using S1 or R1 whichever suits best;
works fine for entries,;
But now fighting to setup the TP and SL correctly......

I also found a reason why it wouldn't enter some trades:

UseZeljko = true;
OnlyTradeCurrencyTwice = true;
(ootb settings)

I had TIB running on multiple pairs and eventually trades "interferences" due to Zeljko filter...

This one was quite hard to hunt down......

I set both to false.

I think this should help.

Ah well, you will know in the future; these filters ship with nearly all of my bots.

I missed the EU tank on demo because I forgot to load TIB onto the chart. Hey-ho; can't remember everything.

[SteveHopwood]

Hehe. And now you have reminded me about those filters, TIB is trading like a trollop.

[SteveHopwood]

I have been thinking about this. The UseZeljko and OnlyTradeCurrencyTwice filters were intended to help us avoid overtrading when using Bob's Recovery.

!-.1 is an, 'I am right or I am out' system, so they are not needed here. In the absence of mass howls of protest, I shall remove them tomorrow.

I shall leave the margin filters (ForexKiwi/Scoobs) for the benefit of those who want to trade larger lot sizes.

It seems somehow wrong to actual remove code from your bots. I'm not using any of those right now (and don't see when I would), but couldn't bring myself to delete them.

Oh, I hardy ever actually remove anything. I usually merely comment it out just in case.

My experience is this: the instant I remove code, somebody comes up with a really cogent reason why it should remain.

That is why 95% of my code is redundant.
