If you are viewing the chart feedback as a Comment rather than text, and the display fault is driving you nuts, go to line 537. Replace SM("Next indi read time: " + TimeToStr(NextReadTime, TIME_SECONDS) ); with SM("Next indi read time: " + TimeToStr(NextReadTime, TIME_SECONDS) +NL); and recompile. |

That's great! I just fired up the new demo at my new work location. Had it all setup last week and waited to run it after the new years. Running it on EU,GU and AU only at the moment using the wave this time. Let's see what 2016 holds for this little guy |

Teensy and unimportant cosmetic thingy for those using the limit method. Go to line 989: if (type == OP_BUY || type == OP_BUYSTOP) col = Green; and add the bit highlighted in red: if (type == OP_BUY || type == OP_BUYSTOP || type == OP_BUYLIMIT) col = Green; This will make the bot print green buy limit arrows instead of red ones. |

Hi, today I experianced a case I was concerned at begining when asking for modification for "stop buy/close" orders in case "stop order" in opossite direction is triggered. Today, EURUSD was very volotile first going down, than up and then again significantly down. HGBnG took short positions before market retraced up and openned 3 long positions. Those 3 position were left openned and EURUSD fall by >100pips later. My set up is 6 x 15pips dist. positions both directions. Finally at last position I recovered and closed positions manually with little profit. Conclusion/recomendation: please add option to be able to open "Stop Buy/Sell" orders whenever Buy/Sell is opened is market goes against HGI signal. I am not sure, if all hedge positions should be kept opened or they should close one by one with declared TP and only 1 is always opened. Having a/m option would reduce risk and time to recover. Basket Pair Closure. I tried to add this option from HGB to HGBnG, but ended with couple of errors I could not eliminate as there is a differance in CloseAllTrades. Running this EA by Basket and Dailly profit is most likely proper way, rather than TP of each trade. Steve, please do not remove me from the forum on insisting on those additional features :hi: Cheers. |

Insist as much as you want fella, it ain't going to happen. This bot did not arise from my fevered, booze-fuelled imagination. He arose from careful work and long trading by someone who knows what he is talking about. You don't like the bot, don't trade it. |

Hi krzysiekqq, Sorry I'm having hard time understanding your request. Are you saying that the ea should open more pending orders dynamically if the opposite trades are triggered? ie. say if you have 3 buy/sell grid for sell signal and if 2 sell trigger and price goes up triggers one buy. you want X more buys and sells to be added to the grid in case it reverses? Not sure if this is a good idea because it can always keep going up and down regardless of the grid size. Unless you want to close it at break even or very small profit. That's why it's important to manage it the first time around with smaller grid and drawdown. Also remember the ea is capable of closing on reverse signal which with HGI's accuracy will give you profit at the end of the day. I think you're thinking of winning every round, which is not important. As long as you're winning more rounds than you lose is more important because in forex you just don't know how much whiplash you'll get and when.
