Hi,guys,I wanna to download all the economics data from this forum's calendar to build some charts and figures,is there any way to do so automatically?
thanks in advance.

now you can place the pending orders 1 min before the newsrelease, but, can you also place the orders a few seconds before?

Hi all,
Don't know if this is the right place to ask for help, but I hope someone can.

I am running the ScheduleTrader_v1.mq4 ea but a lot of the time I am getting the following errors:

2009.06.22 21:36:43 Cannot open file 'C:\Program Files\SIGTrader-2\experts\libraries\stdlib.ex4' on the EURJPY,M5

2009.06.22 21:36:43 Cannot open file 'C:\Program Files\SIGTrader-2\experts\stdlib.ex4' on the EURJPY,M5

2009.06.22 21:36:43 ScheduleTrader_v1 EURJPY,M5: cannot load external expert 'stdlib'

2009.06.22 21:36:43 ScheduleTrader_v1 EURJPY,M5: expert stopped

stdlib is in the libraries but not in the experts dir

Thanks for any help
Basza

make sure that you have the other 2 files. Because this ScheduleTrader_v1 is 3 files: EA and the other 2 files.
It is somewhere on the first page of this thread: Indicators/EAs for news and trading signals

Besides, check your settings in Metatrader and in this EA.
It should be as the following:

Metatrader - Tools - Options:
- enable EA - yes
- disable experts when ... - no
- disable experts when ... - no
- allow live trading - yes
- ask manual confirmation - no
- allow dll imports - yes
- confirm dll - no
- allow external ... yes

Click on ScheduleTrader_v1 face on the chart - and the same:
- allow live trading - yes
- ask manual confirmation - no
- allow dll imports - yes
- confirm dll - no
- allow external ... yes

Thanks newdigital

I thought that the ScheduleTrader_v1 was only 1 file plus the excel cvs file. I can't find the other files.

This error does not happen on all pairs, just some of them and not the same ones each time.

What experience do you have with News EAs ?

We all love a winning trading system that is capable of telling us (1) when to enter (buy/sell), (2) where the profit targets are, (3) when to cut our loss and (4) when to exit when things are not quite right.

There are several threads in this forum under “News/Signal Trading” that provide forecasts for EURUSD, GBPUSD, etc. They normally give details of Entry Price, Profit Targets, Stop Loss, Resistance and Supports. Some are accompanied with charts and others are without charts. (I love those forecasts that come with charts. A picture is worth more than a thousand words, they say.)

We have traders who love short term plays ie within 30 minutes whilst others are prepared to wait longer - how much longer(?) is another question – 3 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, the whole day. Who cares as long as they make money.)

Expectations and Reality are two different things ie

Expectations: Whatever methods are used, PROFIT TARGETS are projections of an assumed continuing trend OR retracements (nothing wrong with this thinking). Two questions arise. (1) whether prices will reach the target is another question, and (2) how long/soon will it touch the target – normally this will depend whether the target is 10-20 pips (short term) OR 200 pips or more (longer term) - in my observations of market behaviour, 10-20 pips within 30 min and 200 pips & above – a few hours. (Abnormal/Unexpected events are excepted as these can create sharp movements.) Hope this will give traders an idea of the TRADING TIME required to achieve targets. Forget about holding positions for days as most of us prefer day trading.

Reality: The reality of market behaviour is that prices DO NOT MAKE one smooth ride up or down. Many times prices may not reach their targets and on their way to their targets, in betweens there will be profit-taking, triggering of stop losses.,

General: I asked myself what can I learn from such type of market phenomena. Most forecasts by pros and veteran traders are correct (based on their fundamental and technical analyses); it is the TRADING TIME (unless this is of no essence to some traders) it takes to achieve the targets and the happenings in the in-betweens that disturb our mind.

What can we do to take advantage of both short term and mid-term gains. Enter 2 lots, closing the first lot when you make 10-20 pips and the remaining order to let prices run its full course for the day until your profit target is reached. (I always close my position when I go to sleep – no bad dreams and sweat at night.)

Sweet dreams and good trading.

Thank you very much
