AutoTrading Scheduler

[Enivid]

any one help me for this ea installation

It's quite straightforward (unless you are on Mac) - you just copy the contents of the downloaded archive to the MQL4\Experts\ (or MQL5\Experts\ if you are on MT5) folder of your platform's data folder. Then you restart the platform and it should appear among the Experts in the Navigator.

You put this in Wednesday: 00:00-13:00,15:00-00:00

thank you - so just a comma between the 2 sets of time & no space

You can put space too - it doesn't really matter for the EA.

Version 1.01 of the AutoTrading Scheduler has been released. It implements multiple important changes:

• Added optional alerts when AutoTrading is toggled. (@jaypebe74)
• Added non-enforced schedule mode to only toggle AutoTrading when a new period stats or ends. (@hinde.usr)
• Added input parameters with default values for all panel fields. This will simplify setup and copying the panel settings from one platform to another.
• Optimized processing of chart timeframe/symbol change.
• Fixed a bug that prevented the panel from maximizing after minimization. (@Tylergibson)
• Fixed a bug that could cause multiple triggers when the scheduler was set to close trades.
• Fixed a bug with deletion of leftover chart objects from a previously crashed ATS panel.
• Removed the PanelOnTopOfChart parameter. This should be handled by chart settings.

thank you. on mt5 this works very well!

i would be interested in some enhancement regarding the trading times fields:

i use a signal that works m5 and above. yet the signal is only valid a few seconds after a new bar opens after it changes its mind and messes up.

so it would be great to be able to tell the scheduler to check chart timeframe (for the chart on which the scheduler is ) and to check the trading window set for each day, and to switch on on candle open and to switch off after say 5 seconds (user defined).

i am available to provide more information if needed.

again, thank you.

Hello,
The scheduler is great, but at times it just randomly deletes some of the trading times. Is this a known bug? It happens mostly on the MT5 version of the scheduler

No, I didn't see that bug. How can I reproduce it?

I will try and check logs when it next happens. But when it does, even after you type a time in the box, it gets deleted. It is very random, I havent noticed any particular pattern to it

If you are 6 hours behind, you can set it to local time and use 17:30-19:00 time.

Yes, because it has to be 17:30-19:00.

Unfortunately, that's not something I can do - it's the restriction of the input field object.

oh. i thought maybe using the max length attribute you could changr the input field length...can you please try? if not thats too bad..but ok thanks for the reply

That's MetaTrader's restriction. The maximum length of the OBJ_EDIT field is 63 characters.

would it be a working work around if i split the text in to multiple charts? putting up like on 4 different charts? would that work theoretically?

Unfortunately, no. Together they will keep autotrading always off because for each separate instance, the periods allowed by other instances will be periods when autotrading shouldn't be allowed.

I am currently considering some solutions to this, but I don't have a definite fix yet.
