I just looked and realized that code you wrote was back at the beginning of the year. My apologies. My days run together.

I'm getting new trades every time the EA "looks" at the StackingTimeFrame HGI status, here set at 180sec;

I looked into the code and found this;
Line 2243: "look for StackingTrades"
After that there is code that says;
Line 2253: ....FirstTradeTimeFrame

I'm no coder, but shouldn't that be replaced by "StackingTradeTimeFrame"?

Nice one. Thanks. :clap: :clap: :clap:

Fix in post 1.

Self-fixers, in lines 2253 - 2281 there are four instances of FirstTradeTimeFrame that need replacing with StackingTimeFrame.

Hi Steve and David,

thanks for the fantastic work. Reviewing the charts a question came up: When we ride a nice trend in the higher timeframe, there are often additional trend arrows after retracements. Maybe we could open stack trades not only for signals in the lower timeframe, but also for those additional signals in the higher timeframe. What do you think?

Cheers, Thomas

@Gertje Nice Find

@Steve thank you

@Tomele Yes this is part of the strategy but you will probably run out of positions or hit a yellow before that happens most of the time. I could be wrong on this.

Blazej,

With Gertje's find and Steve's fix we'll need to start looking forward from this point. I will be refreshing my testing terminals today going forward. Thanks for your help on this.

Based on my trading experience, M15 is the lowest timeframe to look for entries on the H4 candles. Usually, but not always, when I get a signal on M15 it will last for several hours, if it is going to run. I am interested to see your CSS results.

Hi David,

so my results after Steve's correction, with CCS on are:

.

Less trades results in less loss. I will analyse the trades during the weekend if possible, but most probably I will start new week with H1 as primary timeframe and M15 as stacking one. Or even m5 as stacking. And I will set some stops. Will post configuration after I will figure it out.

Thanks Blaze,

I was looking to test the H1/M15 as well. Thanks for your help.

Have a good weekend everyone. :clap:
