Installing new version and will let you know if everything works again

Noticed another problem. Not sure if that is related to this. I am unable to see the source code after Left click on block and choose source code. All pop up windows with sorce code remain blank.

As far as I can see everything works perfect. Importing old test bots is no problem and all the rest also working great. Only problem is after pushing the export buttons .mq4 and .ex4 and giving no errors at all. It fails to place them in the expert folders of the platforms. I tried 3 different Mt4 platforms and all with the same results.

XML file. Don't look at the title because that was from something else. I get no errors when exporting but they simply don't show up in the expert folders.

Divergence.xml

Will try. Just a sec. Not the smartest. I take it that should be done with export project (.xml)

Same here. Since today I can not export anymore. Tried several Mt 4 platforms by changing Global options But NOTHING.
Only thing that has changed was I did a new install because of an update. (maybe that's the problem)
Working with Local version and still 3 months to go. I tried with 3 simple blocks. Picture attached.

Most important thing in trading is hold on to your dollars. That is more important than making profits. Since divergence could indicate a rversal or correction is about to happen it makes a lot of sence to protect your dollars. It doesn't mean a trend reversal at that moment because divergence often builds up before anything happens.

So in case of divergence I would like the EA to place the trade at break even in case its trading in profit. Simply said: Protect your money at all times.
There are a lot of divergence indicators out there so not asking which one I should use but I can't figure out where to place it and how.

Hope you can help me here. A picture is attached to make things clear.

Thanks. That was easier than I thought. Thanks again

Just to let you know:

That 4hr GBPUSD trade with the EA is also working perfect now.

Another indication something must have been somewhere in the computers mind.

Lesson learned is: When it's acting weird. RESTART ALL

Perfection as I said all along

Well I be damned. Its working on 1 min gold live. (The GBP 4hr is in as it should) So in short like I said in the chat room, for whatever reason it looks like a computer keeps some old stuff from before in the back of its mind. Anyway its telling me that whenever you start an EA and have been playing before it is essential that you restart eveything clean before doing anything at all.

Almost certain now its not the program that remembers stuff from the past but the computer itself.

Thanks for that last and final tip that gave us the solution

Restarted everything and checked all. Have one EA running on a GBPUSD. Only that chart is open so it will be easy to find any errors when they happen. Next trade should start in 15 min and to see if it works will take at least 4hr or more.

Now that sound a bit like logic. I have 4 EA's open on 4 different pairs with 4 different magic nr's.

But just in case I will reastart the computer and EA's.

Indeed the only thing I can think of. Must be somewhere in that direction.

Will get back when I found the solution or...

BTW I keep on testing live with 1 cent trades before going over to the real stuff.

There is no problem that is my problem On the third picture from the top which was created in the strategy tester it does exactly what it needs to do. It closes at the right stops and it also closes any sell trades when a new buy comes on. It trails trades 100% right as seen on buy trade 3. So everything is as I want according to the blocks you provided. There are no closes on new bars. Its all perfect.

But when going live it closes trades on new bars which it doesn't do in the tester. ( The tester is 100 right and so the Robot is 100% accurate)

So nothing complicated at all.

Only when going live its not doing what it should do.

But I take your advice and do the following:

1: I start over again with the same stuff and run it on tester and demo account.
2: If that doesn't work I look over it again and again and let you know the outcome.
3: When that doesn't work I try to find a way around it as you suggested.

But this EA is perfect because have tested on many pairs and commodities and it makes good profits over a year of Data on all.
So why change something that is good

Again only live its acting weird. (Below another perfect picture of a perfect EA on the strategy tester.)

More detailed picture of the buy and sell. The filters are on an in my opinion it can only close any buy or sell trade when the condition changed.
Since the condition which is set at X< D or X > D never changed it should add a new trade instead of close an open trade.

In other words it should work live as well. Condition is simple and stops are a good distance away.

On strategie tester this works perfect on a 4hr timeframe. The condition says to open trades at the opening of a new bar. But I have no clue why it is also closing trades on that event. The condition is a crossover and nowhere in these trades that condition changed at the time of closing. Neither was a target reached or a stop hit. (The same thing happens on 2 different broker platforms. Including one ECN broker)

Up to now I am only testing with very small lots on live accounts.

See pictures attached.

I think I get the Idea. Thanks

Hi,
Say I do multiple trades for example sell 10x in direction of trend when certain conditions are true. Using the counter so we don't get to many trades in. But sometimes trading conditions are true but not favorable. For example when the conditions are true and 6 sell trades are running but the Stochastic and RSI are way oversold. Is it possible to hold trading until we get out of oversold area's before the other 4 waiting trades are placed. Like counter is 6 but the other 4 trades need to wait until RSI gets above 30 again.

Thanks in advance and great program. I love it.

Maybe I did something or maybe I didn't. Its a testing account so will restart the whole thing and see what happens when I disconnect the internet cable for a moment. When the problem remains I think a vps is the best solution.
