A quick question...The performance that you have posted is just from your set file or all three mentioned?

Thanks and Regards
Sudhindra
just in my short testing this morning it seems like its either from :

Steve's four time frame.set

or

Awesome all timeframes non basket.set

both have very similar high gains

I have started the test this morning and I might have found a bug with the global basket closure feature.
Nice spot. Thanks. :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

There is a fix in post 1 - you do not need it if you are not treating every trade on the platform as part of the same basket.

The same logic bloop applies to PoS, so I have added a fix there as well.

DIYers, do a search for:
//Check that there is sufficient margin for trading
and delete the entire block of code. The scroll down to:
//Trading. Look for the initial trade on this time frame.

Copy this over the top of the existing code block:

Code: Select all

 //Trading. Look for the initial trade on this time frame.
         if (MarginCheck())
            if (OpenTrades == 0)
               //Safety adapted from my shells
               if (TimeCurrent() >= TimeToStartTrading[TradingTimeCounter])
               {
                  LookForTradingOpportunities(symbol, cc);
               }//if (TimeCurrent() >= TimeToStartTrading[TradingTimeCounter])
               
Same fix for both bots.

Anyone else is having issues with these repeating errors?

I opened a brand new Demo account for this mission, everything is fresh, only Awesome EA and indicators had been copied to the new installation. All history had been downloaded using scripts. Using the "Steve's four time frame.set" setfile as is, no changes

Hi,
for those of you using an account with suffixes: Awesome didn´t find my suffix symbols "micro" (5 letters) and didn´t trade at all. So I had a look at the code and found this part:
//Cater for a symbol suffix
string AddChar = StringSubstr(Symbol(),6,4);
I changed the las digit to 5 and voila, Awesome found all symbols. :yahoo:
Thanks Steve and TJF for this present, :good: :clap:

Not bad for trading the previously untradable M1 time frame. :lol:

Here is my first 24 hours of the trading week - it includes one of my manual closures of an entire position once a few trades had hit TP and the remainder eventually moved into basket profit:

Good fun, all this.

I do not actually know what is causing this, but the most likely cause is that a widened spread is causing difficulties with the new price for the stop order being too close to the market because of the spread. Try widening your buffer and see if that helps (Trade1BufferPips etc).
