Hi Guys
"One last thing, what is being done with the buffers that presents this behavior? It seems rather unusual. If I try to select H4, it does it on both parts."

I don't know the answer for this, we have to ask our master, Leon to explain.
Thanks for pointing this out. I realize now that someone previously pointed this out and cannot remember if it was Wallywonka or Ehrenmat that fixed it for me.
Here is the indicator that you must have:
Waddah_Attar_Explosion.mq4
In your UBD indicator setting just take out the "_Modified" and it will read correctly from the above indicator.

Cheers
Leon.

My Pleasure Taipan.

Like Taipan I am also getting extremely good results. :good: :cheer: We all know that there have been nice moves in the market since yesterday.

Early days and I will take the Ea through its paces, considering ranging periods and so forth.

Have a great day
Cheers
Leon

Hi Leon,

You can check another modification of GRab setup by using partial of your setup in the link below, also with good results :

Yes Taipan, we think alike :) . I downloaded your attachments yesterday from that link with the idea of incorporating Grab candles into my setup.
Edit: I see you have posted another setup also with nice results. Ok, will download those and go through the whole lot nicely over the weekend.
Many thanks
Leon

Where to you get the figures of 47 for entries and -27 for exits? Please share where to get the figures so that we could improve our settings.
Well math given the numbers.

When I see your solo signal settings I see 50% for entries... You have 16 buffers present so to trigger an entry you would need 8 buffers to be on one direction.
Since I had 17 buffers 47% (the way tdesk rounds the numbers) would be needed to trigger the same entry.

Same thing for the exit. If we modify it again with the new, WAE indicator... My guess is for the same response the math will change again.


Is anyone having trouble with notifications on that setup?

Hi Opita,
it is not a problem. It is because the Ea is trying to insert a trail stop 1 candle away too close to market price. So it will carry on giving that message until price moves away far enough for your trail stop to be accepted. You could look at adjusting it to 3 candles for example and the notifications should become less. I also think it is important to set the trading timeframe to whatever you wish because the Ea will read it on the time frame that the Ea is on. Just adjusting mine now to 240 min (4hr t/frame)

Cheers
Leon

Thanks for the reply Leon, I figured it was doing it because of the Broker more than the actual app. Sadly, I couldn't find a way to stop the notifications.
I was wondering what timeframe it was intended for, if H4 is what you are looking at then great... I will change it to that.

UPDATE: I am actually going to change it to M30, I just checked and all my closed transactions (positive) are SL that mean that candle trailingstop is doing a good job.
I will update on progress.

Ah, thanks for the update Opita. Your results are looking good by the way :good:
I also thought my trail stop was doing a good job so have set it to 30 minutes.
Cheers

Hi Guys,
Yesterday My global take profit was reached with nice profits, leaving me with no open trades this morning..
Even though there have been significant pullbacks in yesterday's up move with Majors like EurUsd and GpbUsd the ea has crawled back and left me with this in open trades today.
I like what I am seeing with Taipan's tweaked settings, anyway early days.
