Nanningbob 10.2 Autotrader's new home

[matt_32]

Could this be managed as a basket using Baluda's MPBM ? that's what I will probably do.

But how i can prevent NB jumping into the same trade again (when basket gets closed)?

Don't think you can. If all conditions are still met, you will reenter the trades unless an option is added to avoid "continuing" trades. This may be done by only allowing one trade per "trade direction" i.e. the EA trades once when all buy conditions are met then wait until all conditions for a sell trade are met to trigger a new trade.

This is an important issue. The way around it is to code a "sleep for x mins" function into the EA. This could tell the EA to stop or "sleep" for x mins before resuming its work. I am sure I've seen this function in another EA (can't remember where exactly).

Bushiden,
if you read the manuals from nanningbob, you will understand better why they are grouped like that.

Its something you need to understand about 10.2 and rather than someone explaining, read about it.
maybe you'll have a different opinion that works better than the way it is. i think i might have lost you there, but at the end of the day, you must form your own conclusions with the info available, and if you see a different angle, throw it in and we can all tinker with the settings and see if it works better.
you'll see what i mean soon.
great results though, very good start to this ea from al3xx, no problems so far.

Hi, I did read about it before, if Im not mistaken, its about volatility. Im just wondering if NB 10.2 only meant for those group of pairs. Nevertheless, Im testing outside of those pairs too.

hi ,the result is good !

are you use OOTB setting?

Im using default setting. Didnt change anything. But I do manually close some, but mostly I just let it run.

Thanks guys. First time using it. I tried the widget earlier on but it disappear slightly afterwards. Please let me know of its visible to you guys. Maybe its Chrome issue.



Btw, had a question that probably already been answer or a no brainer, but I'm curious anyway. From the EA, I notice there are 5 different group of currency. Any significant role it plays?

Regards.

He is using OOTB @2%risk I think.

Hi everybody,

We have Version 1.2 on page 1.

Bug fix

Been wondering why I didn't get any weekly pivot trades the entire week. It turns out that there was a bug in the function to detect weekly pivot cross. Many thanks to Yoi who pointed that out among other bugs he also caught. If interested, his post is on page 9.

Additional features

hopfi2k sent me the following pm

When applying the EA to many (most) available pairs, it often happens that pairs moving into the same direction have open trades (correlation). I added a correlation filter that checks before a new position is opened against all open trades if there already is a high correlation (adjustable, default to 80) and doesn't open that position.
This usually greatly helps to avoid situations where all correlated pairs go south in case a trend changes or news have an major impact.
I'm currently doing some testing if it works properly and would like to contribute this modification

He also noted that...

Concerning the problems of rapidly new trades of the same pair that some users report, I think its a problem of the magic numbers. Attaching the robot to multiple pairs without changing all magic number to unique values can led to unexpected results I added an automatic unique magic number generator that will generate a unique number for each pair (independent of TF so nothing happens if users change TF of while the EA is running) and all trade modes (D1, D1H4, Bb, Wpc). This should circumvent some problems when users attach the EA to multiple pairs.

That's all to version 1.2.

So, if you want the correlation filter described by hopfi2k, feel free. You will need to set UseCorrelationFilter to true and set the adjustable correlation measure in the setting HighCorrelation that is set by default to 80.

To use automatic unique majic numbers, set the majic numbers to zero.

I do not plan to use these features myself for now so you will find them turned off in the EA attached on page 1. Enable them as described above if you want to play with that.

Kind Regards,

Alex

Hey Alex,

It's weird that you say that, because I came on to post that all I have had is WPC trades this week (please see screenshot attached).
I'll also attach my setfile, I've checked and I have all trading set to true...perhaps someone may see where I am going wrong!

Cheers

2012.08.28 16:04:00 Cannot open file 'C:\Program Files\Empty4 - Alpari UK_2\experts\indicators\10.2 WOH 2x1 5.22.ex4' on the AUDCAD,H4

I got this error message probably because of wrong version. Could someone post the correct version for me?
Thank you in advance.

Here you are

Thank you, it is working perfect now, just opened a trade.

I am receiving the same message from FXCM on multiple pairs/timeframes. I have tried downloading the file several times with no results. Any suggestions are welcome and with thanks.

Thank you Alex for all the hard work on the EA. It is very much appreciated. I'm very excited about this EA especially after seeing such great results from everyone in the thread.

Meska,
I've been reading all the pages on the thread to try to set the EA to work. Since this is the first time I try to run an EA, I'm having all sort of difficulties. Magically, on the very last page I found your SET for the EA. Thank you very much for sharing. You've saved me a lot of time.

Best regards,
