You must only choose ONE of these to be true:

Double_Lotsize
Long_Short_Balance
Choose_Own_Progression

Long_Short_Balance works like this:

Your first order will be whatever your Start_Lot_Size is set at. When it comes time for Long_Short_Balance to work it will balance your long and short lot sizes so they are fully hedged, plus add what ever amount you have selected for Balance_Weight, to the side with the trend.

I hope this makes sense.

Things could be changed later, but as of right now, this is how it works.

look at this picture below ,wolfe.
long- short balance = true
start lot size =.1
balance weight =.1
kayvan meyhod=true

and all the other options false.

is there anything more . that i diden`t do? or the positions are ok?

it puts the first entry 0.1 --the second and all remaining trades just --0.2
thanks

Close_All_Max will close all orders if set to true and you hit Max_Trades, no matter what exit strategy you are using. Even if you are using TS.

Also tried to fix the problem ES was having a few posts back.

Good Luck everyone.

Thank You Mr. Wolfe, for you have DONE.

How about your first setting Mr. ES ??? What do I have change with your setting ???

Thank you so MUCH for ALL of You.

Best regards,

That looks right kayvan. You always have .1 greater on your last order, which is your set balance weight.

You see, it is balancing itself every trade and adding the balance weight, so you always have a greater amount of TOTAL lot sizes open on your last (your trending) side.

Good luck testing tomorrow everyone, I have to check out for the next 20 hours or so. (unfortunately I have to sleep and go to a day job) I'll answer any questions when I get back.

wolfe,

I got the same bug, why did I get a short with 4 lag and a 12 look back on the m5 with the lastentryfiler true?

ElectricSavant · #**787** (**permalink**) 02-25-2008, 06:31 AM

ahhh..

I think I know what kayvan was earlier posting about...

The candlesticks are formed with the ask line.

The kayvan rule is...to buy 2 pips above the high of the candle and sell 2 pips below the low of the candle....VISUALLY

But..

We buy on the ask and sell on the bid...and the high and the low of the candles are formed with the bid on MT4

wolfe can you go through your entire code and make sure that

bid is for the sells

and....

ask is for the buys

then we can adjust the buy lag and the sell lag when we know for sure you got all the ducks in a row!

He is gonna' beat me...I just know it!

I'm still here for just a little while longer.

The rules in coding an OrderSend() command:
At opening of a market order (OP_SELL or OP_BUY), only the latest prices of Bid (for selling) or Ask (for buying) can be used as open price.

All the long OrderSend() commands contain the Ask:

PHP Code:


			
Ticket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUY,Lot_Size,Ask,Slippage,NULL,NULL,"TFX_LONG_ADDITIONAL",Magic_Number,0,Green);

All the short OrderSend() commands contain the Bid:

PHP Code:


			
Ticket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_SELL,Lot_Size,Bid,Slippage,NULL,NULL,"TFX_SHORT_ADDITIONAL",Magic_Number,0,Red);

When using your entry lag take into account your spread.

I'll think about this tomorrow, and see if any other good answer arises.
