you can do it manually, however I have done it through the EA, as it does it for you after you have it setup. To set my 3 sessions up, I have 3 instances of each chart cross, 1 for each of the 3 sessions I want the EA to trade.


I hope this helped a little.

Cheers That Trader Guy
That Trader, thank you! :idea: ;)

I really appreciate the detail in your answer!

Cheers :D

Pooler San! A question if I may!

I notice that the programme opens trades on pairs that I haven't loaded onto the platform being used.

How does that work?? :?

Thanks now.
Cheers.
Doc :D

How is that possible lol?
It only opens the trades on the currency pair the EA is on.

Aside from that it is working well! Thanks!

Keep up the good work!

Basically what are u looking for?

Please forgive me for being so abrupt! :oops: Caught me out before I could delete that question! Didn't expect a reply so quickly! :oops: :oops:

I understand that there is no stop loss... it is just that I have recently had a couple of JPY trades go seriously backwards and put my little $500 play account into Margin Call before I closed said trades -- And I also understand that this is an occupational hazard with this style of trading.

Over the past 40+ years of practice I have gotten into the habit of asking very blunt 'Why can't it be done?' questions of myself, my patients and my staff. I expect everyone around me to think outside of their dots. Tends to work wonders!

Sorry! It has been pointed out to me that I am reverting to type and could be more diplomatic! Hope you will forgive me! :lol: :lol:

Cheers

All good doc lol,
But yeah with this grid (trends will kill it) hence Pooler getting me to code variants to get around it
Other grids (ranging will kill it). always a problem with grids lol

Hi Doc,

What Mantkinth isn't telling you is I'm driving him nuts changing things all the time....but he's been a champion with the coding.

What I'm aiming for is to benefit when when price trends or ranges and we're close. What takes time is the testing on live trades. I want to present a finished article here and then open it for testing to a wider audience. I don't have the time to first develop the strategy on the forum because in my experience things veer out of control because of people's enthusiasm and willingness to help--its like having a strategy planning meeting and inviting thousands of people to participate--all at the same time. Chaos.

But rest assured I'm not going anywhere--I'll do the grunt work (with Mantkinth) then present when I'm happy I've got a proven working strategy that addresses the weaknesses of the current EA--in between doing my day job :roll: :roll: :lol:

That I can understand! :lol: :lol:

My challenge is yours in reverse. Primarily; my work is fixing bodies that have broken down due to neglect... whose owners have run out of options offered (been written off) by main-stream methodology... and have been referred to me by past or present patients.

Similar to your programme development; for decades now it has been very well known and documented that it takes a minimum of 90 days checking, cross-checking and rechecking before any major quantifyable change due to altered medication or lifestyle becomes evident.

But try convincing people that their only alternative is to do just that -- step outside the dots into Area 3 knowledge (what you don't know you don't know!) and do something different.

I wish they were as enthusiastic to help themselves as they are to assist you develop Pooler San.

Sorry to sound like I am grisling! If there is any way I can assist please let me know!

You take care now!

Doc :D
