Thanks Steve for taking the time to code this, it's very much appreciated...

I'll set it up ready for trading tomorrow :D

Thank you Steve,

I have made a check at 13h00 (Frankfurt time) and trades have been sent perfectly.

Brilliant, Steve. Thank you.
Which one? There are potentially 21 open trades, so it would be a bit difficult to chose.

:D
Each pair would select the next weekly pivot level in the direction of the trade.

Confirmed EA working properly. My interest is peaked, dare I say this is almost set and forget? (aside from my weekly pivot level tp request).

Great news folks. MrLong (Andy) has solved the 'unknown subwindow error' that infests our log files if we try to run any of the ea's etc without the indi on our chart.

Andy's version is available in post 1. So long as you have it in your indi folder, the ea's/indi's that make calls to it will not need it on your chart.

Nice one Andy. A big, warm 'thanks' from us all.

:D

This is great - thanks Steve & Shelley.

Is the global closure working? Mine's set to OOTB 400 pips - I'm currently up over 500 and still going strong, all in the last hour! :D

I've noticed that OOTB 400 pips is really 4000 pips on a 5 digit broker. I put mine 40 pips in the EA and it's now correctly targeting 400.0 pips.

Working on mine too. This will work great in trending markets. And because we are looking for +.08 or -.08 we will effectively only be taking trades with pairs that are already trending. So win/win. Who would of thought it would be this easy hah! Let's see how it works over the coming weeks. Great work Steve and Shelley.

Version 1a is in post 1.

The pips tp thingy is indeed working correctly, but you will have noticed the post closure screen flashing. This was the 'I am asleep' message conflicting with the normal screen display. The fix puts this right. At least, I think it does.
