Thanks,TCO for your great efforts
...Looking very promising...I am still testing the original TCO third screen strategy EA you sent me (positive results so far ) along with latest versions on both EMA and MACD settings...Don't know enough about Ichymoto yet to know what to look for, but will put that in the hopper also when I study up a bit and get a better understanding of what is happening....

Thanks again, Don

Thanks for updating, TCO. Definitely one of the best bots which I've tested so far.
Keep up good work. :)
Thanks Formatix. Good to hear. My EMA and Ichi Demos got a little dicey last week, but are back in the green. The MACD demo is doing well. I guess I need to start a Turtle demo now. :D

Hi Guys, there was an issue with the closed order delay. I have commented out that code for now. I've loaded the changed EA to post 1 and it is a necessary change if you want the EA to trade correctly. Sorry for the confusion and inconvenience. Thanks - TCO.

Hi TCO,

Thanks for sharing your EA here, I am about to start it on a demo, however, you mention a template in this post and I can't see a "tpl" file in post 1. Is the tpl necessary? Have checked a coule of times so if I am missing it, sorry for the question.

Thanks
Marlene
