What about adding On Off buttons so don't need to turn MT4 off just that one currency?

Sorry, please use this version of the header, there was one last oversight.


Thanks Henry. I will.

Thank you!

I did say that I would display the news events on the chart so here you go.

There is a large gap because it's the weekend right now and my broker "hides" the data (maybe all of them do I don't know).
Because of that I also had to zoom out a lot on a higher time-frame to get these events into view, so sorry about this illustration. I bet it will look more awesome in M1, M5 etc. on normal scale.

It's the weekend so there is a gap at the moment

Example Expert Advisor

#include "HForexCalendar.mqh";
#include "HForexCalendarOverlay.mqh";
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| Expert global variables                                          |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
HForexCalendar* g_ForexCalendar;
HForexCalendarOverlay* g_ForexCalendarOverlay;

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| Expert initialization function                                   |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
int OnInit()
{
//---
   g_ForexCalendar = new HForexCalendar();
   g_ForexCalendarOverlay = new HForexCalendarOverlay(g_ForexCalendar);
   
   // let's draw ourselves immediately (in case it's the weekend).
   g_ForexCalendarOverlay.OnTick();
//---
   return(INIT_SUCCEEDED);
}
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| Expert deinitialization function                                 |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
void OnDeinit(const int reason)
{
//---
   delete g_ForexCalendar;
   delete g_ForexCalendarOverlay;
}
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| Expert tick function                                             |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
void OnTick()
{
   g_ForexCalendarOverlay.OnTick();
}
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+

I tried different ways to display all of the news but most attempts were too ugly and impossible to use. Now each time there is several news events at the same time it will be merged into a single line, the tooltip shows you all of the events and the importance color is decided by the most important event at that time. It's a little widget that's fun to have but it will help visualize why the EA may not be trading (due to the news).

Okay I swear this is the final change, I will shut up now. There was just a potential issue that's like one in a million chance of an error and the last thing I want is to make SaadTT unstable.

You now also have to call .OnTick() on the calendar to make it regularly download the news (it used to do this during GetNewsCount() but if placed in a for loop (as intended) that function will be called rapidly and the count may change during the loop if the hour changes at exactly that moment, oops, always the little details).

:) Is it final. I will check this and probably I need to understand it before making SaadTT unStable.

Just so much simplier with an On Off. No mucking around and you can see it clearly on the screen whether it's on or off.

looks like not works with micro account :(

You did see this post correct? The last couple pages was about this topic.

The next version (that got in a little bit of trouble with MQL5 support, it got delayed a bit yet again) will feature "Graceful Stop" it's basically an on/off button that tries to clear the account's trades (in profit) and stop all trading activity. It's probably even better than stopping the EA completely and possibly interfering too much with the strategy.

It turns out my overlay's tool-tips (on the vertical lines) sometimes exceed a 256 character limit causing them to be empty (thanks MT4)... but the calendar itself is working brilliantly. I can't think of any other way to display it on the chart, if anyone has any ideas feel free to let me know. I like working on these things.


I mean I could just display less news... but I am worried I may hide the wrong news articles by accident.
The overlay doesn't really matter but I figure it's nice to have so you can get some insight into what the EA is seeing / going to do.

Contact Adnan Iqbal in a private message, he can help you get it to work with micro accounts by changing the EA's inputs (see this post).

Do you have set files for the pairs you are trading on the signal? Is there any grid or martingale - seems to recover very quickly when faced with draw down?

Yes, sorry, I see that now. Needs about two weeks of grid & martingale to make the loss recovery. I didn't notice any mention of toxic trading strategies in the overview. I was a bit tired and if I had looked a bit deeper I would have noticed. How do you like them apples?

Define your grid and martingale. Sure we double the lot size but it's tracking market trends so it only places a trade whenever the trend reverses (see Trend Tracker Indicator). If you have a long and the market goes bearish it gets closed while it's still in profit. It's pretty brilliant really and during your two weeks of draw-down it will throw in trades in the opposite direction using the amazing proprietary entry strategy so you continue to profit. It's not just some linear algorithm, for that you need to visit the SAAD Scalper section, now that's some real grid & martingale action that will make you go bankrupt... well, not anymore in Europe anyway, hooray BAFiN:

"We are writing to inform you that in accordance with BAFiN requirements you will not be responsible for the payment of any net NAV (Net Asset Value) deficit across all your accounts as of August 10th, 2017."
So lose all you want, make your broker BROKEr, get it?... hm.. sounded funnier in my head.

Anyway I believe the author's live account is enough evidence that it works. Not that it matters whether you buy it or not, all the money from the purchase is donated to charity, it's little to nothing compared to what the EA is making, you don't see Adnan advertising the EA, there is no need, it already earns enough by itself.

Thank Henry, I appreciate your comments and the clarification. I also note the good will of this group - very refreshing and calls for a change in attitude on my part :)

Hi, I have seen that if you have several open positions, the tp is the same as if you have open a position, ie if tp = 10 pips, 1 $


It does not make sense to open 5 lots to win $ 1


You can average tp of the number of open positions ????

Hello Manuel Angel Garcia Montoro,

you have to consider that the entry strategy is supposed to just open a trade and profit 10 minutes later.
When the EA has to open multiple trades using the exit strategy to try and recover it means you are in danger and once you are in draw-down the last thing you want to do is get greedy.

It makes sense to open 5 lots to win $1.00 as such a trade will push the threshold (the green line in the left image where the accumulative profit goes positive) down significantly towards the current price and then a small upwards spike can save your account, giving you a clean slate again and the entry strategy can take over. If you want more money in these situations you use the trailing profit feature, it's there for a reason.
