Can we have an overide on the entry direction completely and get an input where we can indicate an initial entry direction choice of long or short?

1 for long
-1 for short

If you can implement this...that will mean that this EA will offer three types of options for initial entry direction...

The MA settings
The BO settings
User input settings

wolfe you can see that by implementing this you will give the user another option for him to use, in the event he has a bias about the direction. (he may be using Long Only or Short Only inputs in the common tab of the smiley)

I included one of your ideas in v1_4. You now have Auto_Restart in your external variables. If set to true, EA will not re-start cycle after a cycle has been closed out.

Thanks for your testing and contribution ES.

I've tried to make some of the changes people have requested. I did not get to ALL of them. My main goal for v1_4 was to enable the EA to work on multiple currencies at the same time. I am reasonably confident that v1_4 has accomplished this.

As always, read the external variable comments in the code, there have been a few changes from previous versions. Also, install latest include file.

I realize the code is long, repetitive, and cumbersome. I will be working in the future to "simplify" the code, for operation and ease of edit. This version may also not be perfect, but I feel it's the best version yet.

Thank you to all who have been encouraging, supportive, and helpful. The support I have received has enabled TFX to evolve greatly from it's first version.

Enjoy!
