Useful 10.x thingies by Steve and Others

HMMM.

I have downloaded the latest 10.4 Pending Order Placement Script. Every time I try to run it, now, it fails. It says "failed with error (0) no error".

I thought it might be too close to sr line so I set the MinimumPipsToNextSR to 0 but still no joy.

Any ideas?

Thanks

I'm having the same problem. Is yours resolved? The latest script cannot place a pending order because of this error or places an order too far away from the current price, e.g. at SR1 even when there is MSR1 between the price and SR1.

The former version (without TP setting) worked just as expected... I really miss this script as it was very handy.

I have resolved it. It was the "Trading balance filters". Set both of them to false.

did you guys ever build an indicator that will email alert RSI2 signals ?

Last ptt(potential ) 10_4 dash has email sending option, setting it up is another story thou

Best either a 3rd party Empty4 mail server (MT4i has free app & also libs etc) OR

a way to grab & mail Iphone/android Empty4 pushed messages...

Has anyone else had the latest ITM close orders immediately when filled? I deleted the ex4/mq4 and re-downloaded. I've tried two different demos on two different machines. I've tried with pendings set properly for 10.4 and just as a test i've setup pendings close to current price action (to re-create the problem on demand). I've compiled everything to use Magic#0 so manual set trades can be picked up by the ITM too properly.

I've tried turning off all the extra options like Zelko and such. Also tested turning off the AO exit. Whether i force a fill by setting a pending near price action (just to test this problem) or waiting for a legit fill for 10.4 the ITM closes the trade within 1-2 seconds after filled. It did not do this in the last version which i was using the same settings. I've deleted that version though so i can't go back.

Anyone else seen this problem? This is with no other trades open whatsoever and with Cowboy IBFX US std demo.

Here is the sequence for a test (this was just a test):
2013.03.04 16:58:29 10.4 Individual Trade Manager GBPUSD,H4: modify #195083602 sell stop 0.03 GBPUSD at 1.51225 sl: 1.54700 tp: 0.00000 ok
2013.03.04 16:59:15 10.4 Individual Trade Manager GBPUSD,H4: modify #195083602 sell 0.03 GBPUSD at 1.51225 sl: 1.54700 tp: 1.49363 ok
2013.03.04 16:59:16 10.4 Individual Trade Manager GBPUSD,H4: close #195083602 sell 0.03 GBPUSD at 1.51225 sl: 1.54700 tp: 1.49363 at price 1.51253

Update: I tested another broker (FXDD US) and the same problem.

Hi
Yes I found the problem to be the 'pipshiddenfromCrim' option...for me if I have any value greater than 0 it will immediately close out any trade...0 or 'off' and it works fine.

it does seem to be an individual to individual issue...one of those strange anomolies for me anyway!

It will be a great EA when it is finished, so worth the wait!
cheers.

Could you kindly re-post the older version ? Mine was overwritten by the new version.

Dang that's not it for me. I don't use that option so mine has always been "0". I'm all manual until i figure it out.

Sorry mate that it didn't work...the only way I found what it was for me was to turn everything to false...then I just worked down one at a time. Ashflash had similar issues as you, not sure if he has worked it out.
cheers

I have updated the script. Details in post 1.

Thanks for updating the pending order placement script Steve, its a great script, could we have the option to submit the order from the weekly pivot as well as sr1,sr2 and mids etc if possible?

I have the same and went back to previous version.

What do the next lines in the code do?

double AoVal[0];//Will use 1,2,3 to represent close values shift 1,2,3
string AoColour[0];//Colour shift 1 & 2. will be one of the constants green or red.

Can't find it in the UserManual.

Anybody has an idea if a negative number in 'ExtraBreakevenProfitPips' will work and set the blue line the entered number of pips behind the BE-point?

It should do, as the formula adds ExtraBreakevenProfitPips to the calculated BE price, so a negative input should result in ExtraBreakevenProfitPips being subtracted instead. Try it and see.

I can confirm it does so.

I try now with the current GBPUSD entries to;
- 1st entry SL 200 pips for 2% SL
- 2nd entry BE -/- 100 pips making it again 2% SL
- 3th entry BE -/- 65 pips making it again 2% SL
- TP

This will avoid premature stopouts, but might in the end cost money.
Time will tell.

I would love to see this change letting us place the pending trades at weekly MID pivots. Thx.
