ATR Trailer

[eliotnes71]

Hello, I would want that the EA does not take a trade automatically, it is I which takes a trade and the EA serves me for the trailing stop, is this possible

 

[Enivid]

Do you want that in MT4 or in MT5?

 

[ElectricSavant]

Being that this is an "always in" strategy....Can we get a "max spread" input added to this MT4 EA for those of us using dealers with variable spreads? I do not want the EA to enter a new trade when the max spread is breached....it can exit but do not make the new entry, until the spread comes back to the users settings.

Thanks for this great Forum.

Will try to implement that when I have some free time.

Please see the attached version. Let me know if it does what you wanted.

Not making an entry. Did you allow for pippettes (5 digits).

Please try the attached version and let me know how it works.

You can set a Magic number to trail only orders with that magic number, or you can set CurrencyPair to track only orders for that symbol, or you can set both to specify even farther, or you can leave both at zero and empty value to trail all orders.

Here is a screenshot of the inputs.

If your broker is 5-digit, you will probably want to set it to 20 instead of 2. It's a rare occasion for some pair to have 2 fractional pips spread.

 

[ElectricSavant]

ty...seems to work fine with 20. I will let you know if I find anything.

Thanks Again.

TX Enividits very good

 

[ElectricSavant]

Enivid,

I found an error. On a restart of the mt4 platform during an open order (always an open order) it enters a second trade. This is troubling as I routinely restart my computer to refresh the several mt4 platforms that I run 24/7.

Is there any way to fix this?

Is it in the new version I made for you or in the default one?

 

[ElectricSavant]

The new version with the maxspread.

I tried and could not replicate the problem. Could you provide more details on how it is happening?

 

[ElectricSavant]

Yeah...I just tried to replicate it and it does not happen.

I do not know what was happening. It must have been at my end.

Enivid,

Can you add the the code to utilize the input "no trades on Friday" yes or no (1 or 0)? It would be great to not enter trades on Friday for obvious reasons.

I don't know if I will add it. What are those obvious reasons in case of this EA?
