My view is completely different from the pictures posted by the author.

Also. I have a error log for vHistory and vTerminal: 1;40;;;Start function not found and cannot be run.

And the journal is full with:

2007.01.25 12:58:30 1993.11.24 16:00 vHandsTrade GBPUSD,Daily: ObjectSetText( "Comment_1", "", 8"Arial", 0 ) - Error #4202

Same problem for me, I checked the "Journal" Tab in the strategy tester and it shows a ObjectSetText Error#4202 warning, maybe there is something in the code related with unassigned text properties. I Will try to find out if that is the problem.

I had this problem. You should save template name exact as mantioned in the article: vHandsTrade.tpl
I did it and no errors now.

But I got the other problem: I can not modify stop loss and take profit. It was written in the article that it should be some "modification lines" and I should move those lines on the value on the chart (by mouse) I need. Is it simple stop loss/take profit lines on the chart? It is not modified ... May be some other line?

Everything is ok.
Only I do not know how to modify the orders. In Russian version of the article it is not understandable. Will read translation now.

Well.
I found how to modify the orders!

Pless 'Pause' during the testing, move some figures in vTerminal indicator. For example if we want to modify stop loss and take profit so move take profit and stop loss figures in vTerminal separate window (see image). Just move a little. Than press F12 to get next tick and we will see modification lines in yellow colow and then we may move the lines.

Everything works now.

Will try to backtest Braintrading system tomorrow

for at least 1 year.

Ok, no errors now.

But you need to rename it from outside because MT only accepts one capital letter, the first, when you save a template.

To view all (words and numbers) change the variable Main Color in the expert.

The author it´s very funny.
They show all examples with the black and white template. And then sets the words by default to white

You´re right. No lines to move.

Another thing is: if you set a new SL or TP the EA draws back to the original value.

I can´t believe how many articles are in the Russian forum.

This one we´re looking has three months posted.

I found the way how to modify. Read my previous post.
I am translating all the comments (on the chart to the English now in EA.

newdigital · #29 (**permalink**) 01-25-2007, 06:21 PM

I translated this EA's comments to the English. So we will see all comments in English language only.

This tester works!

Also I´m wondered with the Russian forum and Google translate
