Time Frames — Steve: Great job! Suggestion.....Can a Time Frame parameter be added to the bot since IB's occur in a TF's? I was thinking particularly of the 4 hr and daily. Running the bot on a higher TF would in many cases give you a wider ...

EA — 5/27 19:45 EUR/USD 5/27 21:19 GBP/USD Those are two I remember. I can't give you a screen shot since I have already corrected the errors. Also 1 of the trades was taken in the wrong direction. Next week I am sure the errors will occur ...

Revision — It appears that your change of the bots base price to the 0600 GMT line is effective. I apologize to Steve and the followers of this thread for not being more specific in stating that Peter Crown's TRADING DAY began at 0600 GMT. ...

TP — Well, the TP was exactly double the entry price. (I have since changed it to a more realistic level) Since I don't read code I can"t even speculate on what happened. The trade itself does not conform to the system. Maybe the bot should be ...

Questionable Trade — JR just took 2 trades on EUR/USD for an unknown reason. Does anyone have a clue why the bot took the trade. Experts file indicated that the bot generated the trades? The TP on the trades is also most optimistic and does ...

SL — Thanks Invisible. I'll check it out. Most of the orders have a SL but occasionally one slips through for whatever reason.

Filling in missing SL manually. Jumping stops is the default of the EA and am waiting to see how it works since I don't backtest. I put it on demo and let it roll.

managing free trades — Prior to the bot I was using a 21 day LWMA to set the SL on the free trades. Since I don't really understand the methods included in the bot I am letting them run to see what the bot does. (currently set on default SL) I ...

Stop Loss — Steve, Great work. One small tweak needed in the bot. When the 2 initial orders are opened at the trigger line both orders should have the same stop loss but only one with a take profit. Right now the bot is leaving one order with ...

Some Thoughts — Steve, I believe we’re off to a very promising start with this EA but there are a couple of things that need to be tweaked. The EA needs to open 2 trades at the trigger line and not at the beginning of the next candle. * EA ...
