FXe3 » Mon Jan 12, 2015 2:48 pm wrote:I have a question regarding MaxOverallTrades. My understanding is, if I set this to 5, and a RAD fires, creating 10 pending trades, these pending trades don't count against MaxOverallTrades until they actually enter. Lets say 5 enter, what happens to the remaining pending trades, are they deleted? I'm a little confused because they are sitting as pending.

I also have instant Trend enabled and it fires after the RAD post 10 pending, one of the RAD enters, leaving 9 pending, and a Trend Arrow appears. Would this prevent my Instant Trend from entering, I don't think it would. Trying to figure out why Trend instant is not entering.
Any insight is greatly appreciated.
This is something I shall sort out at some stage. MaxOverallTrades is a feature I coded into the bot before Bob introduced us to the joys of multi-level trading. Theoretically, if HGB finds the are MaxOverallTrades Trend?Wave?RAD/Range trades open, he should not send an immediate market trade. The sheer volume of multi-level trades is overwhelming this feature.

Until I sort it out, your best bet is probably to set it to something ridiculously high and forget it.

Got it, thank you Steve.

Tommaso thanks a lot for the quick response! Here it's 2:51 am but I was still awake waiting for one :)

But why should I forget about backtesting? How can I test the HGB then? Only on demo or even live account? Is there a thread about it in order not to bother you with that kind of questions?

Thanks!
Be warned that you are getting away with discussing backtesting only because nothing polite is out of bounds in this thread. Bring it up in any of my main threads and I will savage you. Read this post http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... 83#p108983 to find out why.

:xm:
The last thing that I want Steve is to piss you off, or to be rude to you or to other moderators. I didn't know about the thread and until you wrote the URL I didn't know its existance.

Thanks anyway

Edit: Just read your first and main post. Invaluable information, never thought of it and never read of it elsewhere. Thanks!

You cannot know this stuff unless someone tells you or you find it out for yourself - and usually the hard way.

You are saving yourself years of angst by tapping into the unbelievable resources at SHF. The old stagers here grew up together in Forex terms, and we are passing on close to a decade of hard-won experience to anybody with the sense to listen. With luck and a fair wind, you might even avoid blowing some live trading accounts.

So, well done for taking notice. :clap: Unbelievable as it sounds, not everyone does.

Hi everyone,

Why when I set SL to 25 the EA alert me it adjusted it from 25 to 50 ?
"EURUSD radstoploss was adjusted from 25 to MinStoplevel = 50"

Someone knows the reason ?
