A while ago I started developing a multi symbol Shell EA to use as a starting point for other EA's. As every coder will know a Shell EA cannot be tested without any logic to look for possible trades. So I coded the NB10.2 and NB10.2a logic into the EA. As I am very pleased with the result I wouldn't dare to withhold this EA from you. So here is 'MultiBob'.
Paul
It is not often that I see Empty4 code that is well done!

* Near Perfect Comments.
* Great Variable Names.
* Great Formatting.
* Error Handling.
* Debugging Code.
* Object Oriented (almost like you were a pascal programmer once upon a a time).
* Top-Down Design.

Great Job. Very Well Done!

Thank You for sharing,


MiTija

Hi all: downloaded MultiBob quite alright, but can not get it to load on my Empty4 chart. What might I be doing wrong? Thanks.

Hi Paul great work. A request please, firstly I have traded bobs nb sytems since 2009 along time ago the issue with stops became an issue and handling the recovery system nb introduced. My success using the systems greatly increased when I started hedging my rrades at typically 100 pips drawdown and then waiting out untill conditions triggered a new trade either in the same direction of the origional trade if the drawdown was a function of a large retrace or a trade in the opposite direction if the trend had compeltly reversed.

So my request is could you build a hedge option to kick in at say 100 (defaul but should allow person to set this as a variable) after the ea can just carry on and open new trades as conditions are met. Another variable should be lot multiplier so you can if youy wish increase the hedge trade if you wish as per bobs recovery system I only think you need this as you will have time ro change this if in a series of revoery trades. The stack variable should allow us to determmin how many levels we want to go with this .anyway it works well for me allthhough I have to do this manually. A idea I had is rather than fixed hedge level us atr but this I s an untested idea as yet but food for thought. This straregt has worked well this week

Paul,

This is a great effort. well done!

I noticed a couple of problems:

1) when you switch pairs, the grid does not reinitialize and so a new grid draws below the first.
2)

Code: Select all

            stop = NormalizeDouble( symbolValues[symbolIndex][50] + extent, digits );
this section of code in the bbrange section of calculateStopLoss (line1185). i think the index should be 49 for a sell trade

The clue is in the "auto" part of "autotrader" :D

You can set and forget ... if you're brave ...
