Hi,

I'm not sure if I'm doing things wrong here. I've dragged BBBE into a plain M15 chart, no indi what so ever. Is that how it should be?

Do we need to have all pairs up and running in the platform and take BBBE into all charts (with one BBBE set to 'Master')?

Then, when I apply the EA on the chart, wheather one or multi, I get errors like 130 invalid stops and 4051

Thanks,

Ben

I have had the "Outside trading hours " message all day, even when firmly within trading hours, but only on my trading machine. Here on my coding machine, all has been fine. I copied 1e onto my trading machine by downloading it from post 1.

I just remembered that when I shut down the editor last night, it whinged at me that BBBE needed saving, so I did.

I wonder if I posted 1e without actually saving some of the fix? It is possible - I have done so before. Try V1f from post 1 and see if it fixes the problem.

:D

@SteveHopwood,
v1d worked OK with regards to trading hour, v1e isn't handling trading hours correctly (appears to be trading all the time, even though setfiles define different hours). Will download v1f and see if there is an improvement!

@SteveHopwood
v1f seems to work OK, with regard to trading hours for London and Toyko (states it's outside of trading hours, which it is). v1f states that New York is also outside of trading hours, which it isn't
currently. Setting trading hours to blank for New York causes the output message to change to "Managing all trades," but nothing is happening to indicate that it's actually trading. Hope this information helps?

Set the trading hours without any quotes, example: +8.00,-16.00
For me worked at Lifesys suggestion.

Hello Ben,

Welcome to SteveHopwoodsForum!

Which version of BBBE are you attempting to use?

You should be able to drag BBBE on to a single chart. No other charts or indicators need to be opened/added.

You need to check and change 'CriminalIsECN,' if necessary. That is the fourth input parameter shown in the dialog box that opens when you drag an EA onto a chart. Error code 130 (invalid stops) usually signifies that the b*roker doesn't support opening trades with the TP and SL defined in order open command. They need to have the SL /TP changed with a following order modify command. If that is the case, set 'CriminalIsECN' to true.

You should then see the screen fill up with information about all or most of the currency pairs that your b*roker trades.

Good Luck!

-Frank

I've also got zero divide error....

Also, I've noticed the EA only seems to open one trade at a time for 10.3 and one for 10.2, is that correct? There doesn't seem to be any errors in the log for this, so not sure what's going on. Does anyone else have this problem?
