Simply Awesome EA

[cwave]

I have a system I like to use and had it programmed into an adviser.
There are a few bugs that need to be fixed.

If anyone could take a look at it please let me know and I will post the necessary files and concept of the EA.

I would love to share it with everyone.

Thanks in Advance,
cwave:rolleyes:

[Ezzy]

[Ezzy]

cwave, has the EA being posted yet.

[enxox]

post it so we can have a look at the code also...

[cwave]

Simply Awesome Okay here it is it has some bugs because it doesn't seem to work behind the concept.

Buying Rules: When then price closes above the 20 SMA.

The Awesome Oscillator is green. (up or down doesn't matter)

A long trade should open on the next candle.

The Stop: should be placed at the low of the previous candle
minus 50 pips.

The Exit: should happen when

1.) The price reaches the limit you set.

2.) Hits the set stop (lowest price of the previous candle
minus 50 pips).

3.) The EA generates a short trade.

The short works exactly the same with everything opposite the buy rules. Of course the Awesome Oscillator must turn red for the sell. (up or
down doesn't matter)

My problem seems to be that when I'm in on a long trade and the EA generates a sell it should close the long and open short position on the next candle open but doesn't.
Same thing if I'm in on a short and a long generates it won't close the short and open the buy on the open of the next candle.

I hope this makes sense. Please don't use it on any live or demos till I can get it to work out the bugs.

Thanks cwave

I believe you may just need to add code stating to open only 1 trade at a time, which should be a simple fix and to automatically close when an opposite signal is initiated. I know a few programmers. If you want to send me the file and have them look at it and adjust the code according. Just look at my profile to send me a message..

Thanks

Cwave,

My buddy said insert this code into the EA and it should do the trick..

Put this function into your EA and the calls of it in places where are signals for enter new position:

CloseAll(OP_BUY, MagicNumber, Symbol());
CloseAll(OP_SELL, MagicNumber, Symbol());

//-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
void CloseAll(int type, int MagicNumber, string symbol="")
{
int i;

if (StringLen(symbol)==0) symbol = Symbol();
for(i = OrdersTotal()-1; i >= 0; i--)
{
OrderSelect(i, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES);
if(OrderSymbol()==symbol && OrderMagicNumber()==MagicNumber && OrderType() == type)
{
OrderClose(OrderTicket(), OrderLots(), OrderClosePrice(), 3);
}
}
}
//-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello pippimp,

I'm not to swift with programming, I tried putting it in but I'm not sure where. After I placed I couldn't get it to work. Does your friend know where? Thank you so much for your time and effort and thanks in advance.

Hello,

I have it up here because I feel it doesn't operate correctly. The idea is it works off of a 20 sma and Awesome Oscillator. It's supposed to close off one trade when another signal is generated in the other direction but does"nt. I have it here for someone to look at and hopefully be able to program it to work correctly. Please try it out but I feel it's an EA that once a trade is open has to be watched manually. It doesn't do well on back testing either. If you try it please only on a demo. Hopefully I can get it going if someone with programming skill can fix it.

I am a bit late to the party and hope there is still someone here.

I have been backtesting this EA on daily TF and have had some pretty good results. eg no losing trades in over a year, but not so good over two years, though still profitable.

I need to get a better understanding of some of the settings and would enjoy some exchanges with anyone who is trading the EA or has traded it.

[edwarddevis]

Simple thing that can be understand by investors will be the choice on EA market, as we should learn to choose right kind of money investment plans.
