Coders
Can any one tell me why I can't get this EA to trade, it runs , it compiles but no backtest trades on any time line.

Thanks

Ray

Must have to do something with the trade-open logics.

the ordersend-stuff seems to work, i just tested by changing the last return(false); to
return(true); in the function bool CheckEntryCondition(int cmd), and then it is opening trades

I have added some external vars, so you can disable the rules (there are 4), so enable/disable them, on my quick check it opens trades.

fxdaytrader,
Thanks for the help but so far it still won't trade in backtest on FinFX & MBTradin, either renko or time charts..
attached the journal.
Any other ideas?
Ray


PS: got it working on FinFX, not sure HOW!

It looks like an craptester-error, errors in the backtesting data. This has nothing to do with your ea. ;)

Btw, backtesting does not say so much. But if you would like to backtest, make sure you use backtesting data of at least 99.9% (that is what I read about that).

If you do not know how - try to use the forumsearch or google it, there are many tutorials outside there :)

Download free tool tickstory and export dukascopy tick data to Empty4. google it and it can be found easily.

The test will be 99.9% accuracy.
