News EA Template Without DLL From 2 Sources - expert for MetaTrader 4

This is a continuation of the source code elaboration “The template of Expert Advisor for working with news”. The functions included in this template use two news sources - Investing.com and Dailyfx.com. The template doesn’t use DLL.

The Advisor can distinguish between weak, medium, and strong news, as well as apart for Non-farm Payrolls. There is the parameter of a time indentation for each news type, at a time when the script will give a signal about upcoming or past news.

Using this template, you can also invert its work, and then the Advisor will work either only on the newlines or directly before the release of Non-farm Payrolls. If at one point there is a lot of news, then the Advisor takes into account the strongest.

This version of the template provides a concrete example of how you can use it in your trading. This template already has a simple trading function ManageTrade (), which you can change and realize your desires. The logic of working in the template is simple - taking into account the settings, it checks the presence of news, if there is news then the trading is stopped within the time specified in the settings.

Hey mate, please tell me how does one connect the News Straddling EA with a News Alert EA for automated high impact news trading?

e-News-Lucky 2 - expert for MetaTrader 5 

Refinement of the first version of e-News-Lucky - added options

• Use Expiration - use "lifetime" for a pending Stop order
• Expiration (in minutes) - "lifetime" of a pending Stop order, in minutes

Work with pending Buy Stop and Sell Stop orders. Pending orders are placed and removed at a specified time ( Time of order placement and Time of order removal , respectively), while only hours and minutes are taken into account in the time parameters. When any of the pending orders are triggered (the moment of triggering is trapped in OnTradeTransaction ), the remaining pending order is deleted.

Good afternoon people! As I'm from Brazil, I'm using "google translator", so I apologize for the English mistakes. I downloaded the latest version of the News and I operate the news on the market only with "Straddle" entries. It turns out that even translating to my language, there are some EA parameters that still left me in doubt if I should leave them activated or deactivated so that I can only operate "Straddle" without activating unnecessary things that can spoil the operations or something like that! Could someone please answer these 30 questions related to EA parameters ? Thanks in advance

Doubts:

1- Magic Number: 6060 - This Number Must Be Different in Each Pair, For Example: EUR/USD 6060 | USD/JPY 5050 | GBP/USD 4040 Got it right ?

2- Slippage in pips: What is it ? Do I Activate or Deactivate ?

===== Calendar settings =====

3- Pause Between Downloads (sec): What is this ? Do I Activate or Deactivate ?

11- Order Duratiton: As I use Trailing Stop and I don't want to close the order in some time, do I leave "0" ?

12- Order Processing Time in min: 1 - What exactly is this ? Do I Activate or Deactivate ?

13- Session End Time: 23 - What is this ? Do I Activate or Deactivate ?

14- Session End Time in Friday: 22 - What is this ? Do I Activate or Deactivate ?

18- Gap for Pending Orders from current price in pips: 15 - Is Pending Order Distance from Current Price in Pips ?

21- Initial Stop in pips: Is this my Sop Loss ?

22- Trailing Stop Step in pips: 0 - For Straddle Strategy should I leave it at "0" ?

This is the reply about high/medium/low impacted news events (that those impacts are not the same ones if we compare the different calendar sources for example):

It depends on which calendar source is used to estimate high impact, medium impact and low impacted news events.
I used this EA for live trading with high impacted news events only:

But you can trade high and medium impacted news events for example:
