I have the same error as others have mentioned at AXI Trader, I didn't get that message at SIG but have been getting a continual error with the Zig Zag for some odd reason.

Will try another broker and see if it fixes itself. :) Thanks

What a coincidence I have been trading manually using the swings of the 21 SMA and the 55EMA as my bias for the market action but use the 5EMA / 8SMA for my price action and it works a treat . I use 15mins TF .

I have resolved "Order Send failed, Non- positive tick returned" problem. I've set stoploss to 0 in the code.
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| expert Send Order function |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
void SendOrder(string symbol, int cmd, double lots, double price,double sl, double tp)
{
sl=0;

55 and 21 are important MA's 5 and 8 also.

They are all Fibonacci numbers.

will agree does the EA always wait for momemtum highs and lows before initiating new trades ? how does it guard against trying to buy into major resistance / support pivots a good exmple will be the CADJPY SH 85.033

Hello Andrew,

Just took a quick peek at the coding for Multi Pair Swing Trader. The ordersend function fails for ECN Brokers because tp and/or sl are non-zero values. Must be a two-step process.

cadjpy will be a trade above 85.03, the last swing, providing the ma's are stacked correct.

The EA will run with the trend if the extern bool FollowTrend = true.

At this time no S/R is considered automatically.

Best Regards
Andy

Hi Frank,

Can add LibOrderReliable4, if all works well.

Thanks
