A question.

How is stacking supposed to work here?

So how's the EA trading for everyone in terms of profitability. I find mine seemingly trading correctly. Basket of about 8 pairs moving back and forth between profit and loss, as you would expect with the ebb and flow of the market.

Cumulatively in the few days I've had it running I'm slightly down. Does that seem to be the overall results of everyone?

Been testing all weeky with all versions with no issues but have also been updating the EA as new versions are released, so far over so good, the trades recover drawdowns after a couple of hours, I did close a few trades that were very close to the TP levels and so far in profit for the week. Only surprised it has traded any of the JPY pairs all week even with all the volatility in the pairs.
A big thank you to all involved in the development, as I am now considering going life sometime next month !! 8-) :lol:

Been testing all week and so far, so good. I'm using the ATR(5) only to try and capture the large weekly moves. This has really gone from strength to strength. Bravo Paul!

Started demo trade on Sept 26 and so far have closed 2 trades by TP. Watched, with great sadness as CADCHF went from $40 to $-2. Had to let in run though just to understand the system. 3 other trades are running presently; 2 in profit while GBPUSD is on its way to profit after almost giving me a fit earlier in the day. All told, great EA.

Thanks to all of you who have had a hand in developing this great tool. I truly admire your abilities not just in coding but much more in sharing. Keep it up.

Sleep / ADR Stop trading Feature Request

Paul

Great job on coding MultiBob.

Not sure if its possible to add a feature to get the currency pair to sleep after closing it...this is really useful as I usually close the trades towards the end of the London session when they've hit the ADR. Or maybe it would be better to have a feature that stops trading with xx pips of the Daily ADR.

I've attached a chart from today, that show's this issue...whare I've closed the trade out at the ADR but its opened another trade and then the price has retraced.

Currently I'm stopping the EA trading around 3pm (GMT UK) but this sometimes can cut out some moves in the US Session.

Also useful would be a Friday Stop Trading time or do not trade feature..

Thanks, Jason

Are you trading both 10.2 and 10.2a or just one. And if both are you trading the same account or two accounts ?

Kudos & thanks to Paul, Bob, Steve and all other contributors. Very well written EA indeed.

Not sure why audnzd (D1 Trend) trade did not stack new trades when profit reached > 60 pips with below settings. It was finally closed when hit JSL 30+10. Refer to audnzd in "Closed trades" below for details.

maxStackTrades = 6;
minStackTradePips = 50;
minRangeTakeProfit= 15;

Here is my test results since 26/9 so far using v1.1.4:

Closed trades:

Open trades:

BB Range Trades:

BB entry was triggered too early when the candles were still stick to the lower band. MA crossed would be a better triggered.
ea h1 0927_1441 multibob bb range should check rsi.gif
Happy trading
