Ok, this is version 1.4 of our Community EA. It took me a little longer than announced to put it together, because I’m not so accustomed to implementing class based libraries. But fuzzy was a great support, and most of all he did a wonderful job coding that lib based on the old sources of Derk Wehler and others. Great job!

Nice post, G. – thanks a lot for that!

Looks like additional homework for the coders, so it’s about time I post my EA v 1.4. Will do so later this evening.

About User Market Sentiment:
Sometimes a user have his own idea about market direction or some fundemental knowledge or preference.
In order to cater for that we need another User Parameter which can handle 3 states: Long only, Short Only, Both (LSB or 1,-1, 0).
The EA logic should take that parameter into consideration and trade only in the…[Read more]

Thanks a lot G, will look at it again …

This belongs in one of the Currency-Strength threads. I posted my “index” version as a suggestion to simplex CIX addition/option.

Hi G,

About the market share, do i calculate it based on its pair “portion” ?

USD = ( EURUSDs1 + GBPUSDs2 + AUDUSDs3 … ) / 7.

So, the value of  s1 = mEUR/mUSD ,  s2 = mGBP/mUSD …  where mEUR is the share of EUR and mUSD is the share of USD.

Or we do it for each currency , after all other calculations  like Vol, Momentum, etc  are made :

Ok, news calendar is working now! Fuzzy did a wonderful job coding that lib as a class. Once I’ve learned to implement classes correctly I might be able to do the job a little faster next time

Some code cleaning now on my side of the implementation, green light from his side and we’re going public with v. 1.4.

Stay tuned!

OK, we’re getting closer! A little sleep helps, and fuzzy’s PMs also help

First of all the first line of code I posted above was complete nonsense:

datetime serverTime =  Time[0];

Replace it with

datetime serverTime =  TimeCurrent();

and things might work!

During backtest calendar XML files were not being created in the testerfiles f…[Read more]

Ok, something has changed with the new version: we’re having a constant output = 0 now when calling via iCustom().

When calling the lib directly it remains a constant -12.

I’ve had an idea regarding iCustom() use: the EA is executed using timeframe H4, but your news indicator requires lower timeframes to display correctly. So that version can’t…[Read more]

@fuzzy: just found your new PM with the new code you sent me minutes ago – thanks! Will give it a quick try and report back.

I’m still working on the integration of the news calendar lib in our EA, having tried two versions: one function calling the calendar lib directly, and one calling the impact indicator via iCustom(). None of them are working by now.

Attaching the indicator to a chart manually works fine: news are updated and levels are displayed.…[Read more]

Yeah, sure… RZ is working with high accuracy.

Just look at the EURCHF weekly chart from last year till today.

It went down from the 1.20 peg for ~11,000 pips, and 57 weeks later (more than a year…) it’s marching back, slooowly.

Will it be back to 1.20? I’m sure it will, sometime… so hang on to that position and DD, Brokers went broke, b…[Read more]

The probability depends on the input parameters chosen, see my post over here and the following posts. You can achieve 97 % under any market condition if you’re willing to wait long enough.

I would consider that statement as rather trivial, at least when taken literally. What’s its value?

Why take the open price of a certain candle into account? We already discussed that somewhere. It’s just an arbitrary choice because we need some point in time to start an analytic interval. And if it’s arbitrary, it might be discussed to choose…[Read more]

I fully agree to your doubts.

Using analogies between price dynamics and mechanical dynamics of physical bodies is always dangerous. It’s ok to use a certain word, e.g. ‘momentum’, to describe some effects in both worlds. But it’s dangerous nonsense to believe that if you use one word for two different things the math behind is the same in both…[Read more]
