Hello.

The EA works only in one direction at a time. When one direction is processed, the EA starts working with another direction.

Best Regards.

Hello.

We checked this in the advisor's code, we did not encounter any problems. Please check this situation again as it works correctly. On the MT4 platform and on the MT5 platform, an identical algorithm is used, there is no difference in it. For this reason, such an error simply cannot be, since there is no difference between the algorithms.

Best Regards.

Author got back to me straight away and helped me, it was my error, This program is very good and the author very helpful.

Dear Alex,

after the update, I noticed that AW has become much more sluggish. The panel freezes most of the time, either showing all zero numbers, or when I click stop recovery and start recovery in an attempt to restart the EA, it actualizes the number for a moment and then freezes again, candles moves and the number stays the same. When it's like this, even when the price hits the TP lines, AW doesn't close the orders. 

I have attached screenshots so you can see this problem more clearly: price moved but panel info stays the same, and AW also took no action when prices went past TP lines moments ago. Even a full restart doesn't solve this problem. 

Please check! 

Best regards

A continuation of my previous post.

Here is what happen when I click the minimize and then maximize the panel. As you can see, the data panel stays freezed. 

Only when I click stop recovery, does the panel data got refreshed and capture the current price movement info correctly

But when I click start recovery, the panel becomes totally freeze again, as shown in the images of previous post.

I really hope for a quick and effective fix. 

Best regards

Hello,

The last update concerns the selection of a specific ticket for the advisor to work. In cases where this function is not active, absolutely all the code that was used earlier is used. We did not make changes in graphics, did not make changes in graphics or any other functionality.

That is, no functions affecting performance were added. If we talk about the graphics and the panel, it has not been edited.

If you clarify about the panel update - it is made when a new quote arrives. That is, the panel works on a timer, and on ticks. Sometimes the arrival of a new tick may not occur every second, so the panel is not updated immediately. This is not a delay due to product updates, that is, the speed of work remains the same. The update took place during the May holidays, when there is less active trading, so you might think that the panel is working more slowly. But the panel works with the same performance when a new quote appears.

If we talk about the question that you have, then first of all, this can really be considered as my flaw. The panel should update the data not only when the quotes are updated, but also after it has been expanded / hidden. In this matter, you are absolutely right, I will prepare an update that will take into account this nuance.

If we talk about performance, it remains the same. If we talk about the speed of processing positions - there are no changes, all processing is performed at the same speed.

I will prepare an update that will update the panel data at the time of its creation / maximization. Thank you for writing about this moment, this will be improved in the next update.

The initial filling of the panel does not affect the speed of work, this update is not critical or affects the quality of the advisor's work, but I will try not to delay its publication.

Best Regards

Thanks Alex for the answer. 

Yes I am currently using the specific ticket function to have AW recover an order of my choosing. But even if I remove the ticket and set the parameter back to 0, a new TP line was drawn, panel got updated for a second and then immediately stay freeze. Just like when specific ticket is used. No change or action whatsoever when price moves. 

What do you think I should do regarding this?

Regarding the panel, I have observed it for some time. I can confirm that when AW is paused (by clicking stop recovery button), the panel was updated very regularly, as one can expect. But once the start recovery button is clicked, it stay still for quite a long time. I haven't seen it resume its work from midnight to now. 

Best regards

Does this EA automatically remove the TP and SL from the position to be recovered?

I'm having some others EAs conflict.

Hello.

Yes, the AW Recovery Advisor removes TP and SL from your orders.

In order for the AW Recovery advisor to take orders into work, it is necessary that it delete all TP and SL. Since if the advisor does not remove TP and SL, then one of your orders may close and break locking. In this case, the AW Recovery advisor will open the same volume on a new basis. Orders that are processed by the Recovery advisor should be in operation only with the AW Recovery.

Best Regards.

there is bug in the bug

the first that i noticed was that the gui over the chart wasn't updating and is displays 0s for all parameters shown.

but shows data when ea is stopped/started from the gui and not from starting/stopping the "allow algo trading" function provided in mt5

the second is that there is a take profit line that is beyond the point of which the ea should have tiggered/closed a position

I've tried restarting mt5, deleted and reinstalled the advisor, rollback to a previous version of mt5, changing settings and it just will not function correctly.

i find it odd that it still functions normally in the strategy tester. could a failed backtest have corrupted the advisors runtime files?

Hello.

About the panel:

The data in the advisor's panel is updated when new quotes are received. The values indicated in the panel are not redrawn by themselves, this is done in order to save the consumption of resources of your computer or VPS.

That is, the panel is working correctly, the data in the panel will be updated as soon as new quotes are received from your broker.

About the TP line:

The TP mark gives an approximate value. This mark indicates the approximate value from which level the possibility of closing starts.

To calculate TP in this Expert Advisor, a complex calculation methodology is used, which is technically impossible to represent graphically as a price. It is not graphically possible to create a calculation that would display correctly and include all commissions

The TP zone mark is a calculation that is made excluding commissions and excluding the current market volatility.

Alex, good morning... how are you?

I'm having difficulties understanding the functioning and make the correct setup of the EA. Do you have any video on Youtube explaining how to setup the EA? If OK, could you please send me the link?

The AW is not opening orders here… I believe I started them with the wrong setup.

If I turn off these EAs that are working now and start another EA with another Magic Number will this new EA consider the orders of the old one that are in loss to recover?

If I put “only buys” and leave trend filter “true” will the EA only open buy orders when trend filter allows?

I await your return.

thanks

Hello.

Unfortunately, we do not have a video on Youtube, but we have an instruction in which there are recommendations for setting up this advisor -> https://www.mql5.com/en/blogs/post/736552

Following the instructions, you will be able to set up the advisor correctly.

Recovery works with all positions. In order to start the process of recovering losses, we recommend disabling other advisors running on the same currency pair as the Recovery advisor.

If you enable trend filtering, the EA will open averaging orders following the signals of the built-in trend indicator.

I also sent you a personal message with more information.

Best Regards

Hello,

I bought the AW recovery and am setting it up according to the manual. I trade on XAUUSD and on your manual you have a chart with 2 digits (1259.25) but I have 3 digits (1259.250) is this still the same settings with the ATR to set the average risks. ATR is now an average of 2,900 for me. Do I have to set 2900/3=966 for average risks?

When I have 50 open positions of different magic numbers and start the recovery process, at some point it starts to close positions? all my orders?

because it's been 2 days and he still hasn't closed orders, he just opened and blocked and I still have 60% of my account balance.

Hello,

If the advisor does not recover existing orders, you need to do one of the following options:

1 - Set the "Magic for recovery (if used)" variable in the input settings to the value of the MagicNumber that you need to recover. That is, the Magic of the EA that made the drawdown. To restore an order opened manually in this variable, use the value "0". 

2 - Set the "Work with selected MagicNumber" variable in the input settings to "false". Then the EA will work with absolutely all orders opened on the current symbol.

If  "Work with selected MagicNumber" = "true", then AW Recovery will work only with same Magics,  then the advisor will work only with certain MagicNumber, this is done in order to restore positions only from certain advisors.

Best Regards

I have only been using this EA for a few weeks now, so cannot review yet. However, I have noticed a few things that could be improved:

1. It would be great to be able to set a percentage value for the drawdown, instead of a set money value. This would be a percentage of the balance and then it would adapt according to the size of the account. At the moment you have to calculate it every time you implement it. Al overall percentage risk would be much easier.
2. If you stop the EA and then close the locking position, but not the Recovery Average positions and then re-enable the EA. The new lock takes into account the Recovery Average positions, but I dont think it should. Otherwise there is not a full lock implemented when these positions later close.

Hello.

1. Thanks for your suggestion. We sell only finished products and do not customize our products for specific users. At the moment, we do not plan to update this product and add additional functionality to it.

2. If you do not interfere with the work of the adviser, then at the moment when he will close the last parts of the position, then at the same moment he will close the remaining averaging orders. When Recovery is already running, it analyzes the already existing situation. Therefore, if Recovery is already running, then it is better to let it work on its own, and not interfere with its work.

If you need to restore averaging orders opened by the Recovery Advisor before. That is, in order for averaging orders to be perceived as a losing position, you can change the magic number for averaging orders in the input settings of the adviser. Then the recovery process will start again. This functionality is described in more detail in the manual.

I hope my answer is helpful to you. If you have additional questions, please send me a private message and I will try to help.
