Once a Day 'n Bob

EA's inspired by nanningbob's work here, especially those based on his 240 Moving Average trend detection filter.

I would not trade live for a few days. I have OAD running on demo to check its workings.

Read the effing manual, ok?

Afterprime is the official SHF broker. Read about them at https://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?p=175790#p175790.

I still suffer from OCCD. Good thing, really.

Anyone here feeling generous? My paypal account is always in the market for a tiny donation. pianodoodler@hotmail.com is the account.

Steve, confirm that Bob is using LWMA 240 set to "Open".... agree that it doesnt make a big difference, especially not on in this context....

Thanks mop.

This will be hard-coded into the next version guys. In the meantime, make the change in your inputs.

Time thingy is working like a charm for me. I am using the local time option of the OAD (Germany, GMT+2 DST), while my broker's time is GMT+3. Settings for each day (mon - fri) send 09:00 lcl, close 18:00 lcl. The EA is running on a blank EURUSD D1 chart.

V 1a is in post 1.

I had an idea a few minutes ago, inspired by the fact that I have been manually closing baskets when happy with the profit already made and not wanting to hand it back at order close time should those markets continue to move against me.

Copied from post 1:
  • CombinedOpenCloseTargetPips: trades close at TP, leaving behind the losers. OAD will close the remainder of the basket when Closed_pips - Open_pips reaches this value. A zero input turns off this feature.
Find the input in 'Basket trade management'. If I had this in place about 90 minutes ago before the chaos caused by the EU news, I would have been out at c. +75 instead of down c.200. :oops:

Hey ho. The default of 75 might be ambitious and 50 might be better. We shall see.

I've been away from trading for a while and decided to come back for some more Hopwood fun :clap:

Please help me recall, isn't there an EA or an Indicator that makes a chart of the combined pair values which would help determine best market time to open these baskets?
