HighLightMinutes (Default: 240):
If and when a signal changes for a (symbol, timeframe) combination, the dashboard will
highlight the cell to draw the attention to that change. It also records the date and time of
when that signal first appeared.


Rene is this recorded value something that I can look at? I ask because I had MAD open a trade on EA and when I looked at the dashboard (below) I see that E doesn't have enough signals(its set to 4 signals)on 30m to be considered strong. I did look 10 minutes after the trade was taken so the signal COULD have dropped of in that time period which is what I wanted to verify.

You are correct in your assessment, that at the time the EA opened the trade, there must have been enough signals for the currency group to pass the strength or weakness test. Unfortunately, the date/time info of when the signal(s) appear(s) is stored in a in-memory structure, that can not be looked at. Also, this information is not stored in a global variable, so it is lost on a re-initialization of the EA.

Hi, if possible, could you please share both settings files(MAD-EA and APTM)? Thank you!

Hello People,

After abandoning one of my demos of something else, I've decided to give MAD-EA a try. I have gone through the manual and the 52 pages of this thread and have setup MAD-EA with Gilead's MA37 set file as well as with the TM APTM. So far bare in mind it has only been about 10 hours or trading, the EA has opened 44 trades and has closed 43 of them at a loss. Approximately -405 pips later I need to ask. "Am I missing something here?"

I have seen other people use Gilead's set with good results alongside a TM and to be fair it is not really what is puzzling me. What is puzzling me is the amount of trades MAD-EA finds to trade and then closes them at a loss. Is this normal? Is this the kind of DD to expect and then have times of extremely high positive pips?

Many Thanks & Best Regards,

Daniel
