i don't want this idea to get buried in the thread...I still think this is a good upgrade to the code too

oh yea this too !

man if all these ideas were brought together....I can only dream...and study tutorials..oy

see, I told you I'm full of ideas! I love to think in terms of system development. I just can't back it up yet with programming. I really wish I had a team of developers behind me who shared similar priorities with me on making profitable EA's.

I learned how to chage the code to allow me to get results from a smaller than 10TP setting. Those codersguru programming lessons are starting to make some use to me

The smaller the TP 'to a point' the more equity this keeps.

Do you have a link to this EA?

THANKS FOR ALL THE POEPLES SHARED ME THIS THREAD

!

Might you be able to write a version that works the same but i can set a setting to tell it not to buy and not to sell. I dont want to buy more when sell is off, just not do anything

Trades are long enough it would help to have this as i could always trade with the interest

Hi there,

first, thanks for all your effort

Would it be possible to code a function to send an email once a day with "the days result" (profit/loss for the day) i.e. at 9 pm?

Again thanks for the hard work

I have spent some time studying this EA. It relies on retracement heavily. To really make this work there needs to be a method of detecting when sufficient retracement is unlikely and not enter positions in the direction which will need to be retraced to TP. If you can do that you'll really have something here. I have also been working with a similar EA that only opens one position at a time in the direction of the signal. It has the same problem in that it doesn't detect the limits of channeling patterns and ends up in positions which become abandoned like this EA does. The modification is simple in theory, don't allow long positions when near strong channel resistance levels and don't allow short positions near strong channel support levels. Keep the program from entering these. Keep it looking to the inside of the channel not the outside to make it's profits. It's when it looks outside the channel that it creates abandoned positions which hurt it.

how to detect channels? I don't know what works for that yet...

I have a question about which time frame channel lines to pay most attention to. What I really need to know is how to include this indicator in the executing logic of the ea I'm working with. I'm not that far with my learning how to program yet. I'd like to use these channel lines to limit the EA from getting into positions that would have to close outside the channel. I am working in a 5m chart but the channel in that TF is too small.

the 15m chart shows a channel size of 65 and slope of .53 while the 30m chart shows a channel size of 246 and slope of -1.62. That's quite divergent. The only way I know how to manage this sort of dilemma is to put the backtest thumbscrews down on it and be able to change the settings of the indicator as to which TF is uses and see which works the best.

I also found this breakout indicator..

ok this one doesn't give me different slopes on each time frame. It depends on how far back I draw the lines as to what the slope is...

hum, that's three ways to do it now...

one that uses highest highs and lowest lows, one that slopes divergent ways and this one....I'm shy on the one what gives divergent slopes in each TF. If I'm making a filter from it I can't wrap my mind around the slope changing so volitily.
