Dan pm'd me to say he was getting 'invalid stop' errors and the limit orders not being sent. I had got my '+' and '-' the wrong way around. So:
line 1821
price = Ask + (DistanceBetweenTrades / factor);

should be
price = Ask - (DistanceBetweenTrades / factor);

line 1833
price = Bid - (DistanceBetweenTrades / factor);

should be
price = Bid + (DistanceBetweenTrades / factor);

Thank you, I believe line 807 has a small bug, it should check if the 3 level indicator is installed, not the HGI, right?

Brilliant spot. Thanks. One of my copy/paste/forget-to-edit bloops.

Line 807:
if (!indiExists( HGI_Name )

should be:
if (!indiExists( "3 Level" ))

This is in a section of code headed, "Dimwit checks" so you need not bother with the update if you are not an idiot.

One observation I'd like to make though; both terminals were returning these errors very rapidly




I suspect that these have got to do with the global take profit for all the trades in a single pair at the magenta middle line. Since price and even the orders have already traversed beyond the magenta line, a TP at that level can't be set of course (a SL on the other hand could). When I closed off the trades above everything was fine and dandy. However I wonder (wasn't near the terminals to follow the process unfortunately) as to how these orders have been placed that far a distance? My current trades on EURUSD and USDCHF have been laid out wonderfully, as can be witnessed below:



In any case, HGBnS sure seems to be a promising nifty thingy

• - stop and limit orders

  - CSS off for this one in order to engage with more oportunities
  - 0.01 per 1500 DollopOfCash (out of caution not to overtrade, might reduce this to 1 per 2000)
  - 135 bars (as a comprise between 120 and 150 )
  - TPs at the magenta middle line
  - Tommaso's sAPBM set at 4% basket TP and a relaunch time of 2 hours

Hey szfxtrader,

sure until this point I used stop orders exclusively. I've ran into some technical problems but could neutralise the situation. The result as follows:



Now I've just set up a terminal OOTB apart from:

• - stop and limit orders
  - all pairs except the NZD ones
  - CSS off for this one in order to engage with more oportunities
  - 0.01 per 1500 DollopOfCash (out of caution not to overtrade, might reduce this to 1 per 2000)

  - TPs at the magenta middle line
  - Tommaso's sAPBM set at 4% basket TP and a relaunch time of 2 hours

With this I'm hoping to catch about 2-3 basket TPs per week on average. Also, I'm intending to go into weekends holding no open positions with this strategy. DD also kept in check quite neatly.

Good luck!
