You're not - same problem hereCyrus7 wrote:Hey guys,
I've a problem with the illustration of the daily open/pivot lines. They are just visible until i make the first changes in the settings. Even if i switch the settings from "true" to "false" to "true" again, the lines are not on the chart.
..I hope that i'm not the only one who can't see the lines?!![]()
Thanks for your help!!

Re: jiva34's BB Stop auto-trader
Steve,
The issue mentioned below is due to the test you are using to see if the value has been set correctly. The line is:
OK, that's two lines. Oddly enough, it appears the static variable is staying set even though the bot is going through the init() cycle again. Who'd have thought? I didn't think that would happen, so I'll have to keep that in mind going forward.
To get around this, you can change the test to the following, and get rid of the static variable entirely.

Code: Select all
if (DrawOpenPriceLine && ObjectGet(d1openpriceline,OBJPROP_TIME1) != iTime(NULL, PERIOD_D1, 0) )

Re: jiva34's BB Stop auto-trader
Might I suggest one more option? A "max open trades" function. If so, this could make for a nice carry trade bot. I plan on setting this up on a/j with TPs and minimum lots to keep DD in check.
