Hi Steve,

Fabulous work! Thanks to you, Bob, the indi programmers and everyone on this forum smarter than me, which is, well... everyone!

EA running smoothly for the most part on 1-hour charts on a demo account. One issue so far. EURAUD created six Sell trades within the same 1 hour candle, ten minutes apart, all Rad trades. Looks like each one closed 1-2 seconds after it opened. Looks like once the candle closed it stopped firing off sell trades.

Running EA on Trend and Rad trades only (rangetrades set to false). Rad trades set to SL=100, RadCloseonOppositeRadArrow=False, RadCloseonOppositeTMA=True

Hope that helps! Thanks again!!! Other than that glitch, it is up about 200 pips in a bunch of open trades running for about four hours so far.

Thanks for this Auto HGI aka HGB - Everything running well at the moment except for XAG - I have one trade opened for 50 lots!!! See picture - it says Crim's minimum lot size 50. But I am with FXCM and min lot size is 1 - I have this set in properties but something has over ridden this setting!

Cheers
Doc
I code EA's intended to work with the standard Forex pairs. I cannot vouch for their working on the exotics.

Nor do I care. There are a lot of Forex pairs to play with and I am not going to beat myself up for someone who tries to use my stuff elsewhere.

I remarked this recently in the SBB thread: if you try hard enough for long enough to break something, guess what happens?

There may be something I left out when copying the Rad code - I intend only allowing one trade per candle. I will look into it.

First trade open :yahoo:

Here is why those trades were closing so quickly - I just noticed this on EChf:
EURCHFH4.png
HGB opened a buy trade, then spotted that the previous candle had a high wavy line, and obediently closed the trade. Well dragged up entities by bots - they always do what I tell them.

So, still a few bugs to squish and an extra filter to add.

Just to let you guys know, I had a quick look at the code and it only disallows new trades if there is already one open. It does not look at closed trades in the history tab.

Live with it for now, and I will add the fixes.
