Hi all,

Thanks for the support and kind comments.
v1.04 is in post 1.

11 Jan 15:v1.04
-Updated EA to use HGI Lib. Please dl the .ex and .mqh files and place in the appropriate folders

-Added option to exit on Range

Code: Select all

extern bool    ExitOnRange          = true;
e.g if in a Buy trade, if this option is enabled, the EA will exit on a sell range signal.

-Added 60 and 240 MA Check.
Enable CheckTrend to use.

Code: Select all

extern bool     CheckTrend = false;
-Added option to part close on breakeven.

Code: Select all

extern bool    PartCloseOnBreakEven    =false;
extern double  BEPartClosePercent      = 50.0; 
-Added options to lookback on past HGI signals

Code: Select all

extern bool     useHGILookBack     = false;
extern int      MaxHGILookBackCandles = 5;
extern bool     CheckPriceMoveOnLookBack = true;
extern bool     usePreviousHiLoAsRef     = false;
extern double   MaxPipsInTradeDir        = 20;
extern double   MaxPipsAgainstTradeDir   = 10;
useHGILookBack - set true to enable HGI Lookback. This option is only available when UseHurst is set as true.
It does not make sense to use this without Hurst.

MaxHGILookBackCandles - Maximum candles to look back.
Only check the latest HGI signal. Once a HGI signal is found, the EA does not look further back.
i.e If there is a RAD signal 2 candles ago, any signals before that would not be considered.

CheckPriceMoveOnLookBack
This applies when trading on a lookback signal.
The default reference is the Close of the signal candle, otherwise if usePreviousHiLoAsRef is set true, then the Low of that candle is used for sells, while the High is used for buys.
The current price must be between MaxPipsInTradeDir and MaxPipsAgainstTradeDir for the trade to be taken.
The rationale is that if a Sell Trend signal was 3 candles ago, and if the price is now 50 pips below the Close of that candle, it implies the move has happened and might not be a good idea to enter.
Or if the price is now 40 pips above the Close of that candle, then most likely the signal was not a good one and might be good to avoid.

Just to add this final feature is used to add some control over the entry for Lookback signals, ideally the price should not have moved too much on entering a previous signal.

Cheers

:yahoo: thank you for this update!
I wished I had more CPU power to test everything parallel...
By the way, for me Range signals went pretty good last week.

Hi,

My understanding is that using the HGI lib reduces computation by a bit.
Perhaps you can try and see if the latest EA cuts down your computation load.

with the lib the CPU usage should be minimal.., even with using the EA on 28 pairs

Cheers :)
