George, Steve, I have no idea what either of you is talking about so, clearly, Steve's earlier implication that I am an idiot is closer to the truth.gaheitman wrote:Well, I've been infatuated with the bars != Bars logic since I first saw it, but it does seem susceptible to this kind of error.

The code that separates to two adherence rules is so simple that a child could code it.
I notice that init() in scoobs has a 1 minute sleep time on startup. I have not asked him why; maybe he is giving the platform time to sort out all its wrinkles before unleashing the code.
Never mind exactly how this works if you are not a coder; in outline, this is how Gday stops a trade being sent until the new candle forms:Maybe it is possible for the charts to be incorrectly populated, or for it to be possible in some way for the function that counts the bars to return an incorrect result until the EA has got going properly? No idea really. Empty4 is such a turd that anything is possible.
- Declare a variable OldBars that is equal to the number of bars on the D1 chart.
Do not allow a trade until there is a new candle, meaning that OldBars no longer equals the bars on the chart. Therefore a new candle has formed, so the new day has dawned.
Any takers for a 1 minute sleep on startup? Any other suggestions, George?
but it's going to be a doozy 
Hehe. Oops. Sorry. I promise you I did not intend any such implication.SWG123 wrote:George, Steve, I have no idea what either of you is talking about so, clearly, Steve's earlier implication that I am an idiot is closer to the truth.

Yep, $6,000 is the right number. If you are limiting your entries, you might want to make sure you don't trade pairs with high correlation. You'll double your winners, but double your losers as well. I'm not sure if you meant this or not, but since trades can go for several days and be at BE or better for most of the trip, you might want to trade so you only have two trades that are not at BE open at a time.ROBST3R wrote:have a good last day fxozgirl

Thnx in advance!

Yes it is, and yes it would. But with the current entry logic, I don't think we can, at least not for most pairs. There are a few pairs that did well with smaller SLs in my tests. Maybe you could limit your basket to those?gaheitman wrote:The 200 pips is a big SL. It would be nice if we can whittle that down a bit.
