Last point of the SNAKE is wobbling.
Can anyone fix that?
Thank you very much
2.
Add the ability to phase shift of the regular moving average.
3.
Add volume or amplitude to the variable.
-----------------------------------------
4.
Create different version of .....
and ability to add high and low percentage bands
Finally..
5.
Whoever programmed the filter:
What is the repaint area in terms of length of this indicator:
i.e.
If length of snake moving average is set to 20, what is the repaint area?
is it 10 or 20?
I am testing on a 15 min time frame with 3 pairs using Alpari, and testing on a daily time frame with 7 pairs using IBFX.
The ea's for Alpari are the ones where if you click on the face icon top right and look under properties, you will see that you need to add your email information.
The ea's for the IBFX ones do not have under properties an entry for email information.
If you look at the attached files, you will see the alpari entries are showing a sl and tp. The ibfx entries are showing a sl of 0000 and a tp of 0000.
On the first post, one of the features of the ea is that the broker will not be able to see the sl.I would think in the entries for the alpari, the sl is clearly seen. alpari.doc ibfx.doc

There are six cancelled trade on the daily account. These initiated as soon as I applied them but realized they were on 1h charts so I cancelled them and switched to daily charts. Since that the system only made 1 trade. The general EA is doing what it usually does. The impressive account is 2201961. Account has made close to $100 with no open trades. Good solid 3% with no massive open trades. I look forward to the coming week on that account. Good work and good trading.

hope you are well and look forward to the next update I notice to that this thread is to be moved will it be easy to find again
Again thank you for the time you are putting into this project here.
I really do not understand the issues with the decimal places,
I use IBFX and they have a four decimal point presentation and it works great on theri platform. Not premoting them although I do use them on all my live account simply because i have been with them for so long.
Will look more into this issue as we progress.
To Success

Bernard,
Attached is the detailed statement of testing Excalibur on an ActivTrades demo account from November 26.
Tested pairs with Excalibur_V3_Nov_05:
AUDUSD
EURGBP
GBPUSD
NZDUSD
USDCHF
USDJPY
Time frame: M15
Tested pair with Excalibur_V3_Demo_EURUSD_M30
EURUSD
Time frame: M30
As for the decimal places issue, we have more and more brokers out there using 3 decimals on JPY pairs and 5 decimals on the other pairs. The theory behind this is that they can be more specific in determining the spread, i.e. they can use spread e.g. 1.8 pips or 6.3 pips, etc. Excalibur will be a commercial EA, so I thought the market segment represented by potential customers who use 3 & 5 decimals brokers might also be attended.
Let me quote here MrPip's open letter, that was targeting the coding issue caused by the decimals:
Quote:
To all Programmers.
It has come to my attention that there is a problem with some brokers using an additional decimal place for prices. This will cause a problem anywhere Point is used in a calculation for things like StopLoss, TakeProfit or Breakout Levels.
There is a simple solution.
I now use the following function and replace all reference to Point with myPoint.
I declare a variable at the top of the EA.
PHP Code:
double myPoint;
then in init I use the funtion to set the value.
PHP Code:
init()
{
myPoint = SetPoint();
}
Then the function.
PHP Code:
// Set Point value to 2 or 4 decimal places
// to handle brokers who use 3 and 5 decimal places
double SetPoint()
{
double mPoint;
There would also be a problem with some indicators that use Point to determine where to draw lines or size of histograms.
Please pass this along to any forum or group where programmers need this information.
Hope this helps.
I am testing on a 15 min time frame with 3 pairs using Alpari, and testing on a daily time frame with 7 pairs using IBFX.

Easy to explain here.
The trades with the stoploss already set in the pendinfg orders are clearly for the daily chart only and a stoploss of 300 pips is hardcoded currently in them. ONce a 15 pip profit is made the stoploss will move to a breakeen on those trades.
The IBFX pending trades or trades have no stoploss set and must be the older EA for the 30 or 15 min charts.
To Success.

Am working in this issue and thank you for taking the time to look for some coding that may help with this matter.

The e-mail issue will be resolved soon.
Just ignore the message for the time being or simply re enter the information each time you fire the EA. If you have entered your full name and proper registration e-mail address then my server here will ignore this message and if you are already in the database then my server simply ignores the request. If you have not entered your full name, first and last, and a proper return e-mail address, then when the finished version is released my server will not have any way to notify you and forward the registered version properly.
Once we are ready to release the finished version, your free copy will not have this entry to deal with and the e-mail alert feature will work simply by selecting "E-mail=true or false.
To Success
Bernard
