What parameter? There is no parameter for suffix. As I have said many times, the suffix should be handled automatically by the indicator. Please do these tests: 1) Add the indicator to a chart using Citifx MT4. Are the symbols correct? If not, do ...

Comparing the numbers, it certainly looks like the only difference is that I do not include the spread (I simply use the close/bid price everywhere) and the obvious rounding. Other than that, looks like our numbers are in agreement. It is always ...

Please check the pairs to make sure the buys/sells are correct for each type (universal, IBFX). If the suffix is incorrect for certain brokers, you will need to give me specific examples so that I can figure out the problem.

You are correct, the version I referenced does not have an option for non-IBFX pairs. I assumed someone could figure out how to make it flexible enough to allow for IBFX and non-IBFX pairs. It looks like you have done that. Do your changes work? If ...

I think this is the last version I gave you: url Which broker is the suffix not working with? If there is a problem you can just update the getSuffix() function accordingly. For the pairs to be traded...all you have to do is update the gastrPairs ...

Many times when the touch of the 10 ma happens, the steep angle of the 10 MA is completely gone. This is less of a problem with the 35 and 50 MAs for obvious reasons. You could consider changing the 10 EMA to use Open price or add shift=1. Doing ...

MBTrading does not allow stop orders (pending) in both directions. You can obviously place a stop order in 1 direction (say, buy). But, when you try to open a stop order in the other direction (sell) at the same time, you get a "Too many orders" ...

I am using Alpari (US) Demo. See the attached screenshot of GBPJPY trades today. EA was set to Buy only mode, set at 15 pips. As you can see from the 4 trades closed at Mar 23rd 01:04, with each subsequent trade, the SL was moved up for all previous ...

When I see the shifting of bits, I look the other way!!!! How about a combination of the current time and MathRnd()? Anyway, I have an issue with the EA which has me puzzled: Assume a Level 1 buy is opened. When the next buy stop is hit and a Level ...

Very interesting...I get the same value from makeMagicNumber() for AUDJPY and GBPJPY (also, AUDUSD/GBPUSD). After reviewing the code, you would think the odds were not good for this to happen...just a math anomaly I guess.

Usually this is not a difficult request - I do something very similar with other indicators. However, your MAs use the median price, which uses 2 price points - high AND low. This causes a problem - I'll spare you the technical details. The best we ...

Yes, I did modify the THG EA for my entry criteria (and a few other things). It has been running since 1600 GMT on Mar 15th. Up about 1.7%. Very few trades over the last 12 hours, none imminent. Preliminary backtests look so-so...exits are a ...

Most indicators (particularly the MTF ones) I have seen posted here are inadequate for backtesting (especially visually). You need a little more imagination to accurately visualize the RSI, Laguerre, and other indicator values. Yes that is an ...

After watching the Laguerre for a few weeks now, I don't like the 0.8 and 0.2 levels for OB/OS on M5. It is too volatile around those levels. The Laguerre likes to go to the extremes (> 0.95 and < 0.05) and then sit there for a while. FWIW, my ...
