Figured it might be. You get some nice runners when consulting a higher timeframe BB or even just the slow BB on the same TF. And the 5, 0.5 settings (either you or Khalad) suggested allows for some tight entry points. This is a beautiful piece of work and strategy as well. Not trading much the rest of the year but this baby will be put to work starting in Jan.
5,0.5 settings for what?

I've a problem with the illustration of the daily open/pivot lines. They are just visible until i make the first changes in the settings. Even if i switch the settings from "true" to "false" to "true" again, the lines are not on the chart.

..I hope that i'm not the only one who can't see the lines?! :)

Thanks for your help!!

Steve,

The issue mentioned below is due to the test you are using to see if the value has been set correctly. The line is:

Code: Select all

   static datetime D1OpenTime;
   if (DrawOpenPriceLine && D1OpenTime != iTime(NULL, PERIOD_D1, 0) )
OK, that's two lines. Oddly enough, it appears the static variable is staying set even though the bot is going through the init() cycle again. Who'd have thought? I didn't think that would happen, so I'll have to keep that in mind going forward.

To get around this, you can change the test to the following, and get rid of the static variable entirely.

Code: Select all

   if (DrawOpenPriceLine && ObjectGet(d1openpriceline,OBJPROP_TIME1) != iTime(NULL, PERIOD_D1, 0) )

Might I suggest one more option? A "max open trades" function. If so, this could make for a nice carry trade bot. I plan on setting this up on a/j with TPs and minimum lots to keep DD in check.
