Hello Andy,

I understand that as it is currently coded, if useCSS is set to true, CSS is a condition for entry and the open position will be closed when H4 CSS turns color.

Is it possible to just use H4 CSS for closure only but not as a condition for entry? For example, only use RSI as condition for entry but H4 CSS for exit. Is this achievable just playing around with the input settings without changing the codes ?

appreciate your enlightenment !

Just switch off useCSS, and have bailOnOpposite set to true.

Hi Andy,

In my test, I've set UseCSS to false and BailOnOpposite to true, so in theory, open position should be closed if CSS turns around. It does not seems to work as I expect. In the attached chart, I think the position should be closed at where the vertical red line is when CSS turn to red from gold. In reality, nothing has happened.

May be my interpretation of BailOnOpposite is wrong, your help is much appreciated.

My apologies, I remember now, we have to have useCSS in use also, because the condition for closing
the trade could be valid when we opened a trade, therefore closing the trade as soon as it opened.

It's been a while since I worked on the EA, you would not believe how everything looks foreign when browsing though the code.

I've stopped using the bail function in my other EA, because it was closing out most trades, that would have been winners.

Best Regards

Andy

Hello Bernard,

it's the robot more successful in TF M30 then in TF H4? What is your experience?

Best regards

M30 is not my preference. It is the requirement of the EA
I am sure the buys/sells are done based on H4 MA240 and... but you must drop the EA on a M30 chart.
Please read the instructions on post 1.
