Yeah, similiar articles made me make my own USDx indicator, already posted.

Thanks for the links, more readings…

I already posted that combination of ClearMethod & VZO (my ForexGT_VolumeOSC version), but it’s only part of that community EA.

It will be, I promise, when the EA will be finished.

It will incluse robust understanding of: Trend, Sentiment, Currency-Strength, Volume and Price-Action – along with an EA skeleton + trading pre-conditions.

If you don’t understand the CONCEPT of each, you shouldn’t be trading the FOREX market. BUT: there is no need to go into the DETAILS of…[Read more]

Quite a good explanation of CrapT4 crappy price feed can be found over here:

Just a quick note about links to be studied and possibly used for coding later:

Yep:

Since structures were introduced to MQL I can’t imagine how I ever got along without them!

Thanks Simplex, this is a good post. This makes sense 

I think that in one EA there should be only one function that manipulates the SL. And if there’s a good reason for two different functions doing so (one trailing stop function and one break even function) we’ve got two possibilities: either implement some sort of communication protocol between those functions so they can’t work against each…[Read more]

Great work:

I tested it, and after activating DLL import it displayed a line, except for timeframe M1. When placed on an M1 chart, every second indicator buffer ImpactBuffer is empty, so no line is displayed. I failed to find the reason in 5 minutes, so I’ll just report.

One basic question: why do you exclude bar zero in your main loop in…[Read more]

One more thing: for a more elaborate example of how to use structures in practice, just study the latest news calendar version fuzzy posted lately.

Thanks Lowphat  .. Will test this too …

Hi Simplex,

Thanks a lot for this post and post #11279, very good and clear explanation … Easy to understand the reason 

And the code formatting works well, including the indent.

Thank you very much Simplex …

As I posted somewhere else in this forum, I made the first steps of my ‘coding career’ using IBM punchcards and a language named FORTRAN 77 (now it’s up to you to make a guess about my physical age ) Anyway, OOP was not yet invented in those times.

Until now, I failed to get a good grip on the OOP approach. An experienced OOP tutor…[Read more]

One additional remark for those who are not familiar with the concept of complex data types: in my above example, I only used structure members of type double. Please note that this could be any data type:
struct trailingStopParameters {
double trailingDistance;             // trailing distance
double trailingStep;                 // tra…[Read more]

@smallcat and everybody else interested:

Maybe try to change your view on our community project for a short while: consider we’re not only coding one EA, but a collection of flexible and exchangeable trading software modules instead. The overall goal of these modules should be to facilitate coding an EA, and the EAs which are the result of our…[Read more]

Great Fuzzy … Thanks for your hard work
