I will second that. Great work.

I am switching my Cowboy IBFX DEMO over to the new version.

In the mean time, V.1.07 is also doing well today.

Cheers,

Wow!!, next move it to make sure we keep the pips we have harvested.

Andy

Sure do, MrLong. I banked all the pips at 3 pm for a total gain of 12 % from Tokyo open. Don't want to be too greedy. I would settle for 2 to 3 % gain consistently per day any time. It is only a micro account, I know. If the pips keep rolling in, I will be putting the ea in a regular account soon.

I just love Bob's strategy of banking profits on a regular basis. How many times have I seen nice profits whittled away when price retraces.

A note of caution. To-day is high impact news day, hence big moves in particular the Euro pairs. Don't expect to see such big moves on a regular basis.

Cheers,
peter

Can you send me a screenshot of your terminal, with the trades, or the history tab with the closed trades.

Thanks

Here it is... The order is still not closed yet.

Got a screenshot to clarify on 'garbles the screen ...' ???
What is your original screen resolution?
Function log() is part of MrLong's original version, but never used. So this is no problem.

Hi,

I needed to look at the trades, that are rolling, Edit/Terminal.

This order got closed when i restarted Empty4. I didn't stopped the EA running in the weekend. Could this be due to the EA still considering the last week's WS1/WS2 values?

I'll share the details again if I encounter the same again. Thx.

Got it - thank you!
There are several issues included in your screenshot:
  • The actual chart overlaps the EA grid. How to avoid this was discussed at the very beginning of this thread. MrLong also posted a template that helps.
  • The EA does not build up the list of pairs completely - I have no idea why. This was also discussed earlier. Switching TFs back and forth once helps. After that it works on my machines. Be patient at this point and wait a few seconds after your click ...
  • The grid background is set up by drawing several rectangles that overlap a bit. I also had to adjust them when moving from my development machine to test machine. Go to line 311 and try the following before recompiling:

Code: Select all

int	symbCellWidth = 3,		// TRY 4
	mainCellWidth = 32,		// TRY 36 ... 40
	cashCellWidth = 12,		// NO CHANGE
	headCellWidth = -1;		// NO CHANGE
I believe that it will be an iterative process to find the best default settings that fits most users. Maybe MrLong could declare those variables as externals so a user does not have to recompile. (MrLong, what's your opinion on this topic?)

Hmmm - just decided to post a graphics file to clarify about my grid coordinates.

Appreciate your feedback about those changes.
