Latest version of my Helper EA zip is in post 1. The ea's are updated to Crappertradermoron 6xx source.

Most of you do not need the update and will have found that the original worked with Crap6xx. If you compile the original under Crap6xx all that happens is you get a few warnings - nothing serious and the resulting .exe file should still run.

For the coders, all I have done is replace return; with return(0); in those int functions that caused the warnings, and remove a couple of redundant variables. You can do it yourselves, but it is a bit of a ball-ache over umpteen files.

England has been my home for the last 37 years and IMHO if not the best it is one of the best places to live in the world. A tolerant society, high living standard, low crime rate with mild weather and hardly any natural disasters (e.g. earth quakes, hurricanes, tornadoes, etc). We did have almost non stop rain for 3 months resulting in flooding in many places. However, the loss of life was minimal. I love Football and cricket and enjoy the rain as well (maybe the only person in Britain who enjoys the rain)!!!!!! Hope you can come to the UK sometime soon in order for us to show you a good time. Let me know few weeks before coming and I will arrange an itinerary to suit your taste and wishes.

Kind regards

Is it possible to consider putting a hedge function in the trade management module of 10.6 flexible stoch buy and sell EA (actually useful for all the 10.6 helper EA's in Post 1). I am testing these now on demo and excited about using them in my trading. I usually use 100% hedges instead of stop losses and then trade my way out of the hedge when the market shows its stripes.

Would be hugely appreciated and a great addition for non Us traders.

PS I had a go moving in the Hedge management module into the code, but unfortunately I didn't have full enough coding understanding to make it fly. I hope it will be a simple task for you guys familiar with the SH trade management EA's

PSS maybe another approach is to put the hedge module in the 10.7 autotrading shell and just leave the current helper EA as they are - that would work for me................. I should add if hedge trades are used there is the normal option in the module to trade to BE or BE + Pips, but it is useful too for 100% hedge use to have the EA stop and do nothing at that point of 100% hedge in place to allow for evaluation of the trade and manual trading out of the hedge etc.

Maybe this post should be in the 10.7 auto trading thread, sorry if I am in the wrong place here.....

thanks

Hi Guys

A little testing report here:

I am getting various errors with flexible stoch buy sell and market order helper EA's. The errors are all some form of rapid closing of trades, as in 1-5 seconds from opening, I had one incident with the flexible buy/sell Ea that opened and closed about 15 trades in rapid fire. I have been testing them in 'everytick mode' which is the form I want to use them in. My understanding that in this mode the tick value is compared to the previous candle close, which should work OK. My broker is Bully Pepperstone which is has been good for me. I have ceased testing the helper EA's for now as I am not enough of a programmer to tackle this with confidence.

I am not having this problem with the 10.7 EA shell, so am focused on modifying and testing that now.
Any guidance on this would be appreciated as the idea of the helper EA's for 10.7 is brilliant and valuable.

Pretty sure this bug was reported earlier in the thread, which a solution couldn't be found.
Go back and read through from the start to find it.

Thanks Shelly, I'll just concentrate on working with the 10.7 EA shell until further developments. It is working for me so far.

Hello Pacinvest,

I had similar issues when combining 10.6 and 10.7 strategies. I found out that 10.6 can fire trades when 10.7 market info indicator is loaded on the charts. When removed everything is normal. I later read somewhere on this forum that is a Empty4 problem.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Duesenberg

Much appreciated comment, yet another strange Empty4 event. This is good to know I may go back to using this helper EA and try again.

Cheers
Vince
