Thanks, Alex-Forex. It will be fun to see this Robot get legs. I generally am of the opinion that a stand alone robot will have a hard time making a profit consistently, but as a heads up tool for potential new trades it can be very helpful. I hope this one makes tons of pips.

Hi big Al,
i have followed some of your work on FF from when i saw your work on Comer's extreme cycle on symphonie, and including your 5 and 15M entry EA's. NB has been very influential here and its exceptionally pleasing to see how Steve has put together his forum and moderators where everyone is welcome.
Alex is taking on a big and very important EA here, in my opinion, and he will need as much help as possible.
Great to see you on the thread :)

Hi, I am testing this EA on FXCM demo acc, and gave me very positive result.
But when I tried to used it on FXOpen, it gave me error 131: invalid trade volume. Any idea?

Another thing, does this EA limit to 5-digit broker only? Or its doesnt matter?

Thanks.

Look for the min lot size allowed on your account, and the step (0.01, 0.05... etc.)

If you have no error in the Empty4 tab.... just wait :D
3 pairs is not so much and patience is the key ;)

@ Al: Simply excellent to have you here :D hope you find yourslef at home here, it is a fantastic place to be in.

@ Guys: if things do not seem to work as they should when using TMA slope, always remember to force-download chart history using the available tools ;)

Hi, I might be wrong but I think there are some mistakes in the code

L.1571

Code: Select all

   if (type == OP_SELL)
   {
      //Find a weekly pivot cross
      if (Bid < WeeklyPivot && bias == down)
      {
         if (DetectWeeklyPivotCross(OP_SELL) )
         {
            SendLong = true;
            TradeOrigin = H4TrendTrade;//TradeOrigin is used by CalculateTakeProfit()
            magic = D1H4TrendTradeMN;
            comment = D1H4TrendTradeComment;
         }//if (DetectWeeklyPivotCross(OP_SELL)
      }//if (Bid < WeeklyPivot)
It's written SendLong = true; when I think it should be SendShort = true;

----
L 1486

The DetectWeeklyPivotCross function never returns true. It seems to return false when it should return true/

-----

L 1226 in the CalculateTakeProfit function we check if the D1SlopeTrend != buyhold while in the comment it's written that we want to check if D1SlopeTrend != sellhold

Code: Select all

         
//If D1 slope is not sell and hold, then set a tp based on the next full support level
         if (D1SlopeTrend != buyhold)
Should be

Code: Select all

         
//If D1 slope is not sell and hold, then set a tp based on the next full support level
         if (D1SlopeTrend != sellhold)
Let me now if I'm not clear :)

Hi Alex, are you closing your trades manually?

I have had this on since the 28th (OOTB), on 16 pairs. So far it only closed one trade (AUDUSD +40pips), and still on EURAUD, EURJPY, EURUSD, GBPAUD, GBPUSD and AUDJPY, right now up a total of about 310 pips. All of them Trend Trades, no Range trades yet. Yesterday I saw it going from overall up 200 pips to negative, then up again today.

I see good potential here, but might have to fine tune it a bit with MPTM.
