Hi all,need some help please!

I've just downloaded Steve's new Wide Range Bodied HGB bot; and have run into a challenge I haven't had before! OOTB when loaded onto an existing HGB(v3) H4 demo platform; the on-screen display defaulted to the platform's 'Foreground' colour and font size and will not stabilise... Unlike the existing HGB(v3) that has a rock-steady display and the EA's designated programmed font colour and size!!

Figuring that it may well be me in 'klutz' mode I repeated the same exercise with the WRB_HGB & HGB (v3) on a different broker platform... with exactly the same result.

Has anyone else had the same experience or is able to point me in the right direction??

Thanks in advance.
Cheers

WRB HGB performing well so far on the 4h charts ootb, and I have set a £30 global closure. seems to be doing the trick

question - is there a reason WRB version is not coded to take multitrades? as that would maximise the profit potential. is there a chance of getting a multitrade capable version to test

I have cash profit target = 60, but it hasn't made any trades so not sure why it would say this and shut down the EA. Any ideas what settings I may have set off?

My platform still stuck in GLOBAL PROFIT TARGET REACHED. Can anyone help me figure out why? Being the dimwit that I am, what settings have I screwed up?

Thanks,

FF

Remember to change HGB's HGI_Name input to the name of the version you are using,

Hello,

What does this mean?

Thx

Hi DB,

At the very top of the input parameters for the HGB EA, there is a parameter called 'HGI_Name'. You need to change this to correspond with the name of the HGI Indicator you are using.

eg: 'HGI_Name=HGI_v17.00'

Cheers,
Tim

Not being critical here guys. Nobody who posts a daft question here is in danger of a flaming from me - 'tis what this thread is for.

Just pointing out that I wrote a comprehensive user guide the reading of which would have saved some of the latest contributors a considerable amount of angst.

Remarkable what you can learn if you read the user guide.

I must be daft because I re-read user manual and still can't understand why my EA is stuck on 'GLOBAL PROFIT TARGET REACHED" I've changed the setting, trying $ targets, percent targets and it still says it's reached every day and doesn't trade.

clearly nobody else is having this issue? ugh...

It's weird, because if I change setting, screen has EA active and sometimes it clicks off in a couple of seconds, other times maybe as long as a minute.

I'm trading EA on daily TF, have had percent target set at 1%, 1.5%, 2%. Cash target at 60, 80, 100. All the same results.

Anyone have any advise, much appreciated.

Thanks,

FF
