Back to manual trading with 10.2 because Ithink the EA needs lot of improvements and so far it did not do what I thouht it would and per NNBob 10.2 teachings. So my manual trades were 2 last night and both closed in green this morning.

Quick question. I am with a 5 digit broker and using 0.1 lot size. So for MPTM should I be using BE+2.5 instead of BE+25 or what?

Okay guys so my final strategy for this EA.

I would like to see this EA do the following - before triggering trades and managing them:
Long (D1/H4 trades):
1) D1 slope > 0.4
2) H4 slope > 0.8
3) WOH 2x1 (Gary version for GMT+3 brokers) is green
4) Price above monthly pivot
Entry:
1) When price gets above WP (it was below it before) or other S/R level
2) If say price was already above R1 or close to it and comes down to touch WP then it should not buy at the touch but let price close down WP and then come back up for EA to buy. If it does not do that and finds the WP to be a support area then enter when price gets above one of the MA (selected by user)
SL:
For all groups closest support level for the week less some cushion say 10-15 pips to avoid just touch of it and taking us out.
TP (any option):
1) Fixed pips defined by user
2) Some % of Average Daily Range (10 days) - user defined % depending on how much has already been achieved that day prior to our trade
3) Next R level
4) Set BE+10 pips with JSL

Shorts: All opposite of above
Range: If D1 slope in tact but H4 does not match it or even goes down then we can use Baluda's currency slope strength indi for the pair and trade in direction of the strong currency which has to be above the zero line and the weak one. Also, weak one to be below zero line. Price of strong one to be above WP or other levels.
SL: same and TP: same (conservatively few pips below next S level to avoid SRF).

Please revise the code accordingly if you like the idea. Thanks for reading and tolerating.

Your Woh indicator returns D1 = 0 and H4 = 0. That' a problem.

Have you install "10.2 WeeklyOpenHistogram 2x1 4.29" indi in indicator folder ?

i did a visual check to duplicate your values - there is no way to load the set file, is there?

i found an old copy of the wot, and loaded it. do you see anything else (other than no current setup)
