thank u verymuch Luizinho..i will try now....

 

see my comment

 

Thanks Luizinho really good work let's see how it go in forward test

 

thanks Luizinho...Could add time filter or share source code(mq4)for to add time filter.
Regards.

 

i suggest everyone use luize versions ea to test , in order to see if it has good result and then to think about add time filter or others

 

this is a better approach

 

Great work

I don`t know if it is just me but I still can`t see that it trails stops...
Anyone having the same.

 

If you mean the basic version I have the same problem.

 

Yes I had, but tested Luizinho`s version and same problem there...

 

very strange... i wonder why it works in backtest

 

It does not work in backtest either. Does it work in your backtest?

 

In my statement it shows that EA takes 178 short won positions and 173 long won positions in year so i think it works both ways.

 

This is my tester with M5 and 0.1 lots after two days.... It is because it produces a cluster of pending sell orders and the price goes south and then it looks like a goldmine but it is pure luck because it could have taken the sell orders on a 20 pip trip and gone north again, blowing up the acc.

So you see that it don`t trail, then it should have been several smaller profits.. the trail here was set to 10.

 

ah, ok you're right so it looks like we need someone to fix that problem and everything should be fine unfortunately i am not a coder.

 

What pair you Backtest?

 

Is there a kind coder here that could have a look at the trailing on this EA?
I have looked at the code but having no coding experience I could not see what is the problem

 

EURUSD
 

If your broker is 5 digits use 0.2 to 20 pips. See what is also StopLevel and adjust accordingly.
 

I will enter this option and put once complete.

 

I don`t think this is the problem as it trails on buy orders but not on sell. And there is adjustment for 5 digits in the code.

 

...
 

Sorry, wrong when he said:
"If your broker is 5 digits use 0.2 to 20 pips. See what is Also StopLevel and adjust accordingly."
The correct use is 2.0 to 20 pips.
The code is adapted for Traders accustomed to 4 digits where the value of the pip is 0.0001.
 

I noticed that also had the same problem here and so I decided to replace the original code trailingstop for mine.
I took and I left running with EA configuration for broker of 5 digits. I not tested in 4 digits.
See further testing in H1 with default settings (very high risk):


H4 with default settings (very high risk):


Added new feature to enable expiration position.
Evaluate.

 

This is my review for this thread:
I have hope!
