actualRisk will later be used mainly for user display purposes.

Hi @VlanFx:

I’m currently reviewing version 1.3 of the EA. In function CalcLot() you have the following line of code:

actualRisk = (100 * minLot * StopLoss * pipValue) / AccountBalance();

That variable actualRisk is never used thereafter. Is it reserved for some future use?

That’s great, @Emonts:

Please note that not all of my above remarks are necessarily relevant for our EA.

Re. my remark about symbol prefix / suffix, @VlanFx would better decide what to do before you put together some sort of ‘final version’ for the EA. I just wanted to denote that there’s some redundant logic in your function code and the…[Read more]

@gg53, @tankhang, @VlanFx:

I’d like to come back to this source posted. AFAIK, we do not have a version based on a single function for EA integration yet. I have two different versions of such a function now, following different algorithmic approaches to model the mathematical nature of the IIR smoothing with sufficient precision.

If we want…[Read more]

Ok, hope that this is working now. At least I did not manage my new Clear Method or ‘Peak & Trough’ indicator to display anything unstable.

Main difference as compared to my previous approaches: I allowed for a certain amount of redundant calculation instead of shifting historic values around in static arrays. Makes life easier from time to time…[Read more]

I’m afraid there’s some misunderstanding here. As far as I got it, V. does NOT talk about replacing all iCustom indicator calls by functions calls to mqh libs. It’s all about proper code management. Please trust him.

@VlanFx: please trust yourself and your expertise and do what you know to be right!

Re. iCustom() calls pro’s and con’s (we had…[Read more]

Dear G.!

I’m not excited, and I’m focused, as far as possible. For a focused work, clarity about demand and priorities is a basic requirement.

Accomplished.

Accomplished. Any TF goes for my function.

This makes no sense at all. EA and Indicator can use the same function and the same library. The function reflects the core of this…[Read more]

I can understand the “excitement” coming with this Peak&Trough, but please stay focused.

We want the Peak&Trough to be a callable FUNCTION within the EA.

We currently want only one TF – which is H4.

We want the function to use iCustom calls to a viewable indicator, for easy debugging.

MQH, MTF’s, Trend, etc etc…. will come later, after…[Read more]

My Peak and Trough indicator to test and check. Single TF for the moment, triple TF needs some code cleanup.

The EA will only need one of the functions: getClearState()

Place .mqh in your Include folder and compile.

Once this is approved to be ok I will post in the main thread including some remarks for @vlanfx to ensure for proper integration…[Read more]

Good job!!

Just verify that the external buffers/indexes are accessible to the EA and logic is Ok.

Also, verify that the results according to our base-line results on all 7 Majors, with same params.

Make a function, based on that indie,  that returns entry signal to the penguin EA, replacing the current one.

Pls post indie + function…[Read more]

Great:

I’ll send you by PM in a few minutes for review.

This is quite Ok, and all is “forgiven”, especially if it’s YOU….

I’d love to see this DOC, and maybe after compilation with @VlanFx – we’ll make one that suits all, and benfit this community EA.

That’s for future use, to control the TP in relation with SL – maintaining suitable Risk/Reward ratio.

Hi @VlanFx

Are you aware of the fact that input double TP_Factor is never used in the EA (latest version posted here)?

Hi @VlanFx!

Plz add suffix and prefix option so we can test it on broker having diff symbol names

waiting for update

@VlanFx

Ahh, the server again: obviously there’s only one directory for all attachments. I’ve had that also.

Thanks, s.
