you said you wanted to determine wether or not it was giving you the input you want, the print function is visible in the journal section, it is what i would do. to use the scomment, which you can, all you have to do is define the scomment, which i already see done. correct me if i'm wrong, but your trying to have the computer tell you if the price is going up or down right?

the reason i would reccomend using the print is because if it isn't leaving a comment at the top of the screen, i can only guess a handfull of problems. one that you haven't defined scomment as a comment, another one might be that your custom indicator being used doesn't compile, there could be a multiple number of reasons. if you can actually get the ea onto the screen and see it, that only leaves a few guesses to what the problem may be, print is what i use to help me in that kind of situation.

Yes I did firedave.

Hi Dave,

I think the point of the message was to isolate the components to see if

sw_buy=iCustom(NULL,0,"Solar Wind-a",period,1,0);

is actually being set to something. BUT, as I reread your message it looks like you aren't having PROBLEMS getting it to show up, but rather are just asking for coding help to add the information. I think we all jumped to the conclusion that you had added it, but it wasn't working.

Anyway, to add it to the code, just do:

Code:

void subPrintDetails() 
{ 
   string sComment   = ""; 
   string sp         = "----------------------------------------\n"; 
   string NL         = "\n"; 
    string sDirection = ""; 
    if (sw_buy_cur>0) sDirection="UP"; 
    if (sw_sell_cur<0) sDirection="DOWN"; 
   sComment = "SOLAR WIND EA" + NL; 
   sComment = sComment + "TakeProfit=" + DoubleToStr(TakeProfit,0) + " | "; 
   sComment = sComment + "TrailingStop=" + DoubleToStr(TrailingStop,0) + " | "; 
   sComment = sComment + "StopLoss=" + DoubleToStr(StopLoss,0) + NL;  
   sComment = sComment + sp; 
   sComment = sComment + "Solar Wind Direction=" + sDirection + " | ";    
   sComment = sComment + "Lots=" + DoubleToStr(Ilo,2) + " | "; 
   sComment = sComment + "LastTrade=" + DoubleToStr(TradeLast,0) + " | ";  
   sComment = sComment + "MM=" + DoubleToStr(mm,0) + " | "; 
   sComment = sComment + "Risk=" + DoubleToStr(Risk,0) + "%" + NL; 
   sComment = sComment + "Trade=" + DoubleToStr((CntOrd(OP_BUY,MagicNumber)+CntOrd(OP_SELL,MagicNumber)),0) + NL;  
   sComment = sComment + "SW_Buy=" + sw_buy + NL;
   sComment = sComment + sp;   
   Comment(sComment); 
}

Does that help?

Cheers,
CS

Hi all,

Does anyone know if an EA has been created using the solar wind indicator? I am simply looking for one that will buy (above 0.00) and sell (below 0.00) based on this indicator that has a trailing stop option.

If anyone knows if this has been created, or is willing to create it, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

ADXcrosses ....

Is a good one to add to the mix here. Leaves dots for the early moves and works very well with some of the other indicators you have listed here. IMO

I am aware of the repainting thing with Solar Wind. I haven't looked into it although maybe that can't be fixed. I did add something very small to it in case anyone wants to use it, I added the currency it's attached to and also the period displayed in the short name.
