No function Alex; it is just there so you know which setfile the instance is using. |

You guys are simply amazing! One item - for my Asia session I have the trading hours set to: '+15.30,-20.30', which is right now, yet I am getting OUTSIDE TRADING HOURS. Further, if I set the trading hours input to blank, I still get OUTSIDE TRADING HOURS. Trading time for Master is left blank. GMT offset is set to default. Any clues? Sam |

Nice spot Sam. I was able to replicate this. I think that all that was needed was to move some of the code around a bit. For sure, the chart display is correct now. Fix, possibly, in V 1e. Watch the default ThisInstanceIsMaster input. An increasing number of our members do not have English as their first language and so find post one difficult to read. I now default ThisInstanceIsMaster to true on the grounds that it is better to endure the error messages generated by multiple instances trying to do the same thingy than to have no management at all because the user cannot read English well. |

No it doesn't. The sole purpose of these displayed version numbers is so that users can know when a download has failed. If the displayed version number is wrong, the download has failed. |

@Murphyman (Sam) Are you using the latest version of BBBE. 'ThisInstanceIsMaster' can either be true or false. I am using "+13.00,-18.00" for the Asian Session and it's working fine. @SteveHopwood (Steve) I don't see why more than one 'instance' of Empty4 would be running BBBE. Why the need for 'ThisInstanceIsMaster? I've created three setfiles, one for each of the Tokyo, London and New York sessions. They all use different times. They are will be run on only one 'instance' of Empty4. Running multiple 'instances' of Empty4 on a single machine will unnecessarily waste resources. Could you please elaborate why 'ThisInstanceIsMaster' was added? Regards, -Frank P.S. I have used both version 1d and 1e and never experienced any problems with the Asian Session being run. |

Hello McNish The 5 columns to right are not Slope but ADX numbers across M15-W1 over (default 14) periods. Standard Empty4 ADX - Average Directional Movement Index shows 3 curves on a chart, ADX(green), +DI(blue) & -DI(red). ADX (strength) always >0. +DI > -DI = uptrend, -DI > +DI = downtrend in that TF. ADX-MTF = ADX latest value x sign of the larger of (+DI or -DI). EURUSD H1 ADX with ADX-MTF underneath. We are not using ADX as an indicator to enter trades, like TMASlope, but provide option to avoid contra-trading firm higher time frame trends. Cyclical scalpers trade just that. ADX-MTF can show at a glance (& give values for) - direction, strength, ranging, turning, bouncing or that you just missed a good trend. Similar, but slightly quicker than TMA_Slope. re Lag - you cannot show a direction without two points & one must be before now! Also the Doji filter is an option to not trend trade when a pinbar (Doji) just formed for opposite direction. Long candle wicks (default >65%) on higher TF can be strong indicators of price rejection or turning. We now have option to avoid buying when a sell Doji just formed. Rare that BBBE would trigger such a trade but it can occur before neither TMASlope nor ADX have picked it up yet. These neither help into trades nor change either trading system but have shown useful in keeping out of some bad trades. |

A possible coding error? Regards, -Frank |
