I will be using D1 for signals . Grid will be stop and limit orders (no hedging) giving a total of up to 8 positions 1 x H1 ATR apart for each signal.

SL and TP will be 10 x H1 ATR. As an example this is 120pips on EURGBP and 520pips on GBPAUD.

Risk will be 1% per position and upto 8% per trade ..which will be fun :mrgreen: (wouldn't choose this much live but it's a 5k demo account I'm using so hey it will have to do for now until I see how many signals come each week on D1).

I've attached a set file for the 21 pairs I will be testing if anyone is interested in the ATR values (1000 periods)

Contrary to impressions, I am not ignoring your original posts about using atr for grid calculations. There were more bloops in the code than I imagined when I released the bot, and so concentrated on them last week. I will be in touch with you and cy about all this tomorrow.

:xm: I am actually Andrew.

TraderJoeForex was a nickname I used years ago in a trading competition and it stuck.

So you can call me Andrew.. or Joe.. but definitely not Susan or Jackie haha

I tried opening the zip file for the scripts on two computers. Could it possibly be corrupt?

I wasn't sure if this was the proper place to post this. Sorry if it belongs in the noob thread.

I think that one of the other 75 members to have downloaded it would have mentioned this.

I would think so too. Downloaded winzip, same issue. I can try on a third computer later on. Thanks for checking it. Sorry for the meaningless post. :xm:

Hi Steve, thanks for great bot and Happy Holidays.

While running HGBG, I have a question regarding Hedged position after hitting first opposite stop order and reversing in direction we wanted to trade. You stated in your post that EA will delete TP/SL and will monitor and set up own TP. Is this TP we entered in Hedged Stop Order (lets say 30 pips) = hedged order + orders in direction we wanted to trade?

Also, have you considered to enter automaticly new Stop Order in distance up/down, which is used for grid stop orders, whenever Hedged Stop Order is hit to increase probability to close those position positive. Every time new position is opened in opposite direction to our HGI signal, new Stop Order is entered to reduce a gap. So, we could end up with 3 opened positive positions and 6 stop orders with first being only 30 pips away from last opened. Not sure, if it is possible to code.

Lastly, I noticed that Non Hedged set up suspended my computer after setting on 10 pairs. I closed all other terminals and reboot comp a few times, but problem existed. With Hedge version no problem. I run on Intel I-5 4 core processor and 8GB RAM.

Cheers, Krzysiek
