I heard some advice that Task Manager in Windows 8.1 is useful for identifying problems. When I checked it, I saw that Onedrive, MS's cloud storage program, was consuming 60-70% of CPU all by itself - when there was nothing to synchronise. This turns out to be a known problem, and there is a Onedrive Troubleshooter, which I downloaded and ran once, and then Onedrive was all quiet, and now every other program gets the CPU it needs.

So that was easy, once I looked in the right place.
:good:

Considering the feedback I have received, the dashboards are working for everybody.

Most problems were coming from CPU resources, and brokers with suffix.

One last thing I will have to do to improve CPU usage is to work on MPTM Pen EA.

Yes, agree. Working exceptionally well here, including the new date & time function on the global BE routine. :good:

Thanks for the time and effort you are putting into this project. :hi:

Many thanks for your kind words :good:

Yep I think we are close to the final version for the Dashboard.

Concerning MPTM Pen EA, at the moment the EA is not using the Program property strict, and the EA is also working with an infinite loop. It is something I would like to improve to make sure that the EA will still work with future MTCrap update and also to improve CPU resources usage.

I will start to work on this right now.

Cheers,
G

The design of the dashboards also provides a very clear way of seeing what the market is actually doing, once you have studied some clear market moves.

There is a lot of information available and at first sight it can seem a bit daunting for newbies, but IMHO the study is worth the effort.

Just my €2.00 worth ..... :smile:

Hi Bazze,

I will prepare some new templates as I have added some new inputs into the last Dashboard version. (Previous templates are still ok excepted for new imputs...).

I’ll try to do it tomorrow.

Today I spent a big part of the day to “recode/modify” MPTM Pen EA to make it compliant with program property strict (MQL5) and to avoid the infinite loop. It will improve CPU performance and should avoid issues with MTCrap future updates.

I am currently testing it and should finish it tomorrow.

Cheers,
G

Hi Guys,

As stated in my previous post, I have changed a lot of things in MPTM Pen EA. The functions remain the same, but the way it works is completely different.

Initially, I thought I would be ready to start a medium/long term test of the dashboard with multiple settings on Monday, but I am going to postpone it to the following week.

I prefer to spend a week to monitor trades and to make sure that all the latest additions are working fine.

I will post the latest indicator & EA beginning of next week for testing, and I will prepare the templates for the following week.

We are closer & closer to the final version :smile:

Recoding/Modifying MPTM Pen EA to make it compliant with program property strict and to stop its infinite loop was on my to do list since quite a long time. Now it’s done, I just need to test it.

Have a nice week-end.

Cheers,
G

One more thing, there was a small bug in the previous PP Dashboard version.

The price calculation to delete multiple pending price was not correct when the target price was moving day after day.

The version attached should fix the problem.

You can note in the screenshot bellow, I added temporarily the price target for exit in Yellow:

I also made the target price clickable. When you click it, a chart will be open with the selected chart…

Next week I will upload the latest version in post 1 and clean the thread of the previous versions.

Cheers,
G
