Hi Guys.

Thank you for helping out .

I have some problem with the trading hours.
Here how I copied and paste the time, and just changed the digits.

'+09.00,-12.30,+16.15,-18.00' So the tradebot would start and stops.

Could anyone tell me, what I'm doing wrong, and why the tradebot has been issuing RAD trades at all hours.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Monty, Like Gertje I don't use trading hours either but try using colons instead of periods ( : vs . )
MQL4 has some funny quirks when it comes to handling numerical and time data. It may be confusing your time inputs for numerical values, not time values.

Hi folks,
thank you all for this piece of magic.

I run my VPS on the free Amazon web services at the moment with one instance of Empty4 and HGB on 28 pairs. The the power of the server is less then average I guess. I get the following warning:
"2014.12.04 11:17:43.964 HGI_Dark.V.14.05 GBPAUD,H4: indicator is too slow, 2921 ms. rewrite the indicator, please" on every pair. Empty4 is taking 99% of the CPU

Does this affect HGB on the 4h timeframe or would it be just an issue for lower timeframes? By the way I am not intending to trade live with AWS, it´s just for testing purposes since I am a noob and never traded live so far.
Thx for any input.
Maximilian

maybe you should reduce the pairs you like to trade, as your computer performance seems to have problems with 28 pairs..

Cheers

Try to delete the indi from every pair, you only need it in the 'indicator-folder' in order for the EA to work.
If you want to see the pair with the indi, load an empty chart with the indi and not the EA, and change pairs if needed.

Good idea, I don´t want to miss half the opportunities when it´s working so acccurate.

Thank you both,
Maximilian

I have a question concerning the new feature added in version 1H called '' multiple positions ''. Is the multiple position feature independent of the maxtradesallowed?

So if the TrendMaxTradesAllowed is set to 5 and the TrendMaxMultiLevels is also set to 5 can there be 10 trades be opened as long as the maxoveralltrades allows it? Or does the MaxMultiLevels feature over rules all the other max trades features? Or does it count the trend trades and the multi level trend trades as one?

My sincere respect,

The Wolf.

Just observed that the MaxMultiLevels are in addition to positions already open. If you have TrendMaxTradesAllowed set to 5 as well, the total maximum would be 10 open trades.

also observed that v 1h is not closing position when opposite wave lines are formed. I think the EA is designed to close the open position in that situation, am I right ?

If you checked the appropiate box with 'yes', then it is....

What pair are you talking about?

I've checked the box. It is not just 1 pair, it happened to a few pairs.

I jumped from 1e to 1h, I remembered it did close trade with opposite wave line. May be I am wrong.
