So maybe jot down a list of pairs you do want, or I would recommend first setting max spread to I think the highest Bob mentioned was 8? I don't know what's causing the zero divide errors, and frankly in the amount of code I'm looking through right now, it's getting more difficult even with functions to find everywhere I've divided something that could cause a zero-divide error. Please try the things in this post, and if you happen to find which currency is causing the problem, I will take a closer look at trying to make sure it's implemented best I can at some point.

Don,
Wow, I just like this all Pairs 10.3, Well Done, it is quite important to have this alongside the NB10.3 for trade Knowledge, the only Problem is probably in the coding of the Indicator, with some Criminals like Alpari it Opens up easy but with Another Criminal like Hantec Markets it does not Open up when loaded unto the Charts, you might want to Get in Touch with Awesome- Baluda or Splendid- NeoTrader :idea: any of them should be able to help with the Right Coding for this Lovely Indicator

I have attached some screen shots so you can see what I am talking about.....

Regards,

xrismak. ;)

Nice Jem, I'd be looking to TP fairly soon though, as Bob said I don't think it's going to stay there too long!

I hope you backed the winner of the Cup?
Staying in it for now these are longer term trades. Just happened to enter this morning before news. And I don't bet on things I don't know much about ;)

The way I see it there are 30 people in the office. 29 of them bet between $2-$60. 27 didn't win and lost their money and there were 3 winners 2 of which won money and 2 was me cause I didn't lose money. Ok, ok I'm just being a spoil sport because I didn't win anything :lol:

Maybe you would like to use the Stealth Manager from fxtr51 in FF. I am using it and it works very well. You have everything you need. But be careful with spikes when you run it with hidden SL/TP. As it works with DLLs sometimes it does not trigger the hidden SL/TP so fast. What I do is during news is that I am not hiding my SL if the PA is close to it or I do not trade during news :D .

Here the extract of the features :
"Features:

1. a) Hidden TP,SL and BE . Move TP,SL and BE with drag and drop. ---> Visual Lines ;)
b) Normal TP,SL . Move lines with drag and drop

2. Partial Close at BE, TP1, TP2 and TP3.

3. Trailing Stop options:
a) immediate trailing
b) trailing after breakeven
c) trailing after x Pips in Profit
c) jumping stop after breakeven
d) immediate jumping stop
e) jumping stop after x Pips in Profit
f) MA-trailing immediately
g) MA-trailing after Breakeven
h) Exit when MACD-line crosses zero

4. Insert OrderComment from a drop-list or manually.

5. a)Quickstart trading buttons: Market order long or short for scalpers.
b) Place Pending Orders

6. Close management:
a) Close orders by ticketnumber from a drop-list
b) Close all orders of the pair the EA is attached to
c) Close all orders, regardless of pair
d) Close active Order(or delete Pending) by MagicNumber
e) Emergency SL for HiddenSL-option

7. Real buttons on the chart, not emulated (fake) buttons.

8. Risk based Lotsize : Distance of Entry to StopLoss defines lot-size
You move the SL-line and see the lot-size in EA comment display.
You can select automatic MM or manual lot-size

9. Option to make screenshot when an order is opened.

10. Automatic detection of chart background color ( for white and black chart) and adaption of comment and orderlines-colors

11. Option to run the EA independent from ticks"

I also have a jumping stop function I've made, and will be using it in upcoming EA. Looks like there's code to get if there was a brick wall encountered and plenty of helpful coders, I love this forum :)

Here's my pic I promised of the work in progress. Still have to finish reading and implementing 10.2a.

I'm still implementing from trade entry line to the right, needing to maybe ask questions, but too tired right now.

Would someone please post Bob's Excel as PDF on 10.3 since I saw a remark about percentage to use for TP, and I saw no notes on this? (I don't have Excel, and Apple Pages must have stripped some stuff?)

Kindest regards,

Don

Jim,

Just incredible. A min ago I downloaded StealthTradeManager v6.1 and now I am reading this ...nice to know it works well.

So do you think the trigger action can be made faster somehow? With stealth I have heard that brokers still give slippage when the hidden SL/TPs are passed on as market orders?

Cheers,
Athar.

The last post had new variable UseCorrectW1D1Opens False, to use Baluda's code for Pivots.

This pic has UseCorrectW1D1Opens True, which changes values for DP, WP, and S/R from those (don't have Weekly S/R for 10.2a implemented yet).

We see a problem on gold at bottom of list. Cause of problem? Don't know. But until I can get my updated indicators giving the correct values on all timeframes, I must refer back to Baluda's code/indicators which have kept people on same page (not as close as mine between brokers - when my code works, so I will continue to work on it. Basically I am getting high/low of shift to Forex Day open on current timeframe vs using time or open price given by broker for day or week opens and prices. This is necessary to get the pivots as close between brokers as I have proven they can be).

Quick response on the PDF, thank you! I'll dig into it once I can get my head straight again. Tired as all get out. Been working non-stop until I couldn't think clearly and passed out.

For reason of seeing move happened on AUD and I missed it, I will be adding the H4 and H1 gains to this like I did to 10.2 CTS indicator like this one. I never trade against the H4 and H1 candle color, and they must agree, although these are not implemented as rules since not part of Bob's system, I need to be aware of price movement, not just signals, or I might miss out.

Kindest regards,

Don

Don,
your latest picture looks sensational. Can't wait until you post the new version.
