HELP WITH ERROR 4107

ah, ok.
yes, we can do that, will be one more external parameter then ...

Sorry about that !

Your mod ea was doing very well until this week when many pairs are over-extended, and the ea is at present struggling to make a profit.

Better to have no trades than losing trades !

try this one, should work
set UseBoundaryFilter = true and the BoundaryMode

for example, if BoundaryMode=1 and the filter enabled,
then it will not take trades if Bid > WR1 for BUYs and no trades for SELLs if Bid < WS1

Fantastic ! and thanks. Feedback next week.

In forex, LESS IS MORE. Cut out the bad trades and the profits will grow.

Hi Fxdaytrader,

I am trading H1 time frame, should ATR time frame be set to 60 or 1440, using the daily average true range :

Code: Select all

//ATR trailing, fxdaytrader
extern string   ats="----ATR jumping stop----";
extern bool     UseAtrTrailingStop=true;
extern int      AtrTSPeriod=20;//old: 0 turns off atr. > 0 overrides StopLossPips
extern int      AtrTSTimeFrame=1440;//Allows tf independent of the chart. 0 means current chart
extern double   AtrTSMultiplier=2; 

[fxdaytrader]

For the daily 1440 (because 1 day = 24 hours = 24 X 60 minutes = 1440 minutes)

I think I have phrased the question incorrectly.

For example, while trading the ea on H4, should I use ATR of 240 or 1440.

I see that in the original ea which was meant to trade on H4, the default value of ATR time frame is 240.

Code: Select all

extern int      AtrPeriod=0;// 0 turns off atr. > 0 overrides StopLossPips
extern int      AtrTimeFrame=240;//Allows tf independent of the chart. 0 means current chart
//extern double   AtrTpMultiplier=1;
extern double   AtrSlMultiplier=2;

Short answer: To which timeframe you set the ATR-timeframe is up to you.

If you set to 1440, then it will take the daily values (which will generate wider stops), if you set the ATR-timeframe e.g. to 1 (M1), then the stops will be very very tighten ...
