That is because you are listing so many pairs. Pare down the number of pairs you trade. A lot of them I have never heard of before. You should stick with the 20-25 basic pairs of the top 7 currencies.

As I have explained elsewhere I dont open with my full position but will enter positions in parts just for that reason. In this pic you can see the area in blue which has been the range of the nzd/usd for the last 4 months and also the dark blue line trend I saw which I played for the bounce back down. Since I expect the NZD/USD to go south fundamentally I can wait out this temporary rise and play my other two positions when it breaks back south again. Since AUD and NZD pairs seldom go outside R1/S1 and if they do they dont stay outside those areas for long I can reenter my 2nd and 3rd positions and play my total position at the next trendline breaks. In the pic below you can see the blue background range area. The blue trend line and red arrow where I played my first position and then wait for the break of a a trend line down for my 2nd and third positions.

My strategy was to play the trendline bounce off and add positions as it went back south again. It didnt do that so I wait for the next trend line break south to add positions 2 and 3. With a strategy like this I hope to get close to BE with the first trade and profit on the next two. Or use one position to BE the first and the 2nd to profit. It is a patient waiting game I know but that is how I trade.

As you know I am a proponent of small lots to account size and multiple positions. If there is a fundamental shift of the currency direction then I only have 1/3 of my original lot size in play. If I ultimately have to take a loss on this one it is not damaging to my account. If the fundamental trend resumes or only retraces I can BE or I can profit.

Your DB should look like my picture. The Blue symbols are trades pending or already opened. The illumninated symbols are trades that comply to the ticked boxes

I have put the mt4gui2.dll at the main Empty4 folder, YAD104_v1.07 inside experts folder, and the rest inside include, indicators and libraries folder. How do i call the dashboard out?

How i run the v1.07? i try to load it under script and indicator, there is no change at my chart.
I totally can't get the dashboard out.
It Is an EA. You drag YAD104_v107 from your EXPERTS Folder onto the chart

The RSI(2) was getting pinned high and the price was below 240, so we were looking for shorts. From my perspective on the NzdCad and NzdUsd there were great setups on the PA that seemed to cry out that the pairs had met resistance. Which in many cases would signal that it is time to go short. But if you had done that, it would have been really bad news as shown on the charts below.
Cmeade2, can you please tell me what MA is that blue line in your charts? Thanks

That's the MA 5 shift 1 which has been discussed extensively in these forums.

Gladly, it's just that I don't know how to pare down the pairs. The properties of the YAD104v1.07 EA don't show what pairs. I've turned the Allsymbols property to false but that doesn't help.

Right click on the ea, click MODIFY, then change the string index[] to

Code: Select all

string Index[] = { "USD", "EUR", "GBP", "JPY", "AUD", "CHF", "CAD", "NZD", "XAG", "XAU" }; 
then COMPILE, then SAVE.

OR use the copy of the ea attached.
