You are honored to work with me? Thanks, but get a grip feller. I am merely the monkey who bolts things together. You are a genius. Ok, so if I have any pretense towards genius at all, and I do not, it is in keeping this forum free of dimwits so the likes of you can contribute in peace. Well, me and my 30 other trigger-happy mods, that is. :lol: No wonder the dimwits do not get a look in. :lol:
With Captain Jack's thread I probably could trade 240 line and that be my only indi.
I bet you could too, but that is no reason to stop developing 10.5. Maybe using pinbars and/or rrt's to get into a trade earlier? I used a rrt to get me into a 10.5 eu sell a little earlier than I would have done otherwise (H4), so maybe there is some useful multi-system stuff up for grabs here?

We shall see. Exciting times thanks to the likes of you and CJ. The newbs have no idea how much clover they are lying in.

:D
Read the effing manual, ok?

I still suffer from OCCD. Good thing, really.

hello there, is there any chance how to set the 10.4ITM or MPTM to care only for the BE of the basket when it is added to the current chart. Other functions disabled.
If i try set the ITM and add it to the chart, it will close the basket trades immediately without distinction if the basket is in profit or loss
if i try set the MPTM si there any settings like in ITM to set close the basket on BE plus some profit pips?

THX for your help

Hi Steve, gang,

I made a lot of good use of the entry-script for 10.4
Is there a chance of writing the same script for 10.5?
So instead of using the weekly pivotlines, use the daily pivotlines?

May I suggest to set an option to enter multiple trades at once?
For instance; enter pending @ DMP1, DP, DMS1 and TP @ DS1

Thanks in advance,
Best,

Gertjan

Great idea Gertje. Just enter a lot size and number of trades (lines) and voila.
Would be great if somebody can code it.

BTW. I don't know if it's only me but 10.4 pending order placement script is using 2nd line for me. I mean that when price is below WMS1 it place buy at WP instead of WMS1. When the price is below WP it place order at WMR1 instead of WP.

For example now. When I attach it to a gbp/usd chart I have got pending @ 1.5304 (WMR1) when it should be @ 1.5274 (WP). Any thoughts ?

No idea. I use the script written by Steve and it works fine.
I made a few hard-coded ones with 0.01, 0.02, 0.03 etc. lotsize so I can just click and enter.

Steve it looks like ITM is closing trades with AO change wrong way.

I mean - I enter the trade short when AO is GREEN (price is below 240 and after retrace it is breaking pivot line). Then AO change in the nest bar or two in RED. ITM is closing the trade (I believe because of AO change because trade doesn't hit SL, TP or BE - it is first trade in basket).

Have anybody noticed it ? Looks like a bug but maybe it is closing trade for anothher reason (but I have got only AO change and BE functions turned on).

Or maybe there is another reason. I'm not sure why ITM is closing the trades. In yournals I have only go close order and levels.
In Experts I have got some errors like
09:37 10.4 ITM USDCAD H1: Alert 10.4 ITM xxxxxx AdjustTPSLAfterCliskAndDrag pending price adjustment failed with error 130
09:37 10.4 ITM USDCAD H1: 10.4 ITM xxxxxx AdjustTPSLAfterCliskAndDrag pending price adjustment failed with error 130
9:40 10.4 ITM USDCAD,H1: close xxxxx buy at...

Any thoughts ? I using only AO change true and BE true with 1 BE pips. Nothing more (no TP, SL, traling or jumping stop).

Yeh - I'm having the same issue Sponn. I'm using Global Prime. But looking at the code I can't see how this could be broker related. Is it only the 2 of us who have this issue? Surely not!

It also set pending at the 2nd line for me eventhough I set the minimum pips to next SR to 0. Anyone has the script to place multiple stops instead of one? Like 2-3 pendings. thanks
