Sorry for loading up this thread today. I just had some time today and am learning this. :)
Hi,

Just change the extern bool useCSS = false; that will turn the css filter off.

Version 2.04a update on page 1

Only highlights out the function that deletes pending orders if we have a Color Change.

Hi Andy

Been following this thread for a while - thanks for all that you've been doing.

Just to pitch in a comment about the color change - instead of commenting out the function why don't you make the color change dependent on selection of useCSS .. ie

{
mangeStopOrders(CurrentPair);
if (useCSS==true) mangeColorChange(CurrentPair);
}

Cheers
Jeremy

Hi Jeremy,

It is a bit too keen, so I think that's the best way for now, but your welcome to use it how you like,

Thanks for your feedback

Hi,

Just change the extern bool useCSS = false; that will turn the css filter off.

Ok, I tried that in the code (rather than the inputs) and then compiled it (six errors, but all minor ones). Lets see if that works. Thanks Andy!

Hi nonlinear

Did you download and compile the new version 2.04a that Andy put on page 1 or use the version you already had? Just changing the useCSS in the code on the old version doesn't fix the problem. Andy has changed the code in the latest version to take out the line that closed pendings when the CSS colour changed - so you need to use version 2.04a AND set useCSS to false either in the code or in the ea inputs.

Cheers
Jeremy

I had made that code change in the past version. But I also compiled the new version, 2.04a. That caused the EA to place two new pending orders, which still looks too low to me. I need to watch it further.

I am also trying to understand how the EA works with adding positions. Does it really move the TP to the next level and then the SL to breakeven. Bob's system seems to make the best returns by adding positions and moving the TP up. I don't see this EA doing that (moving the TP), but I confess I have not studied all the inputs yet, including the breakeven settings. Thanks.

hi,

My results in live account alpari uk from day 07/05:
(Multi_10_4_EAv2.04 with the parameter useCSS = true)
trades: 8 (6 close / 2 open)
won: 5 (+380 pips)
lost: 1 (-19 pips)

But really I have less trades than with version v2.02a.

good work...

@jomel - do you run the bot OOTB ? Or do you have your setfile ? Couldn't see so far here detailed setings for successful running this bot.
