PipMaker v1 - Price action based EA - page 165

 

I like PipMaker

 

time filter

I love pipmaker too... but what pairs are you using it on, Hooshmand?

I think this EA needs a time filter. I want to trade it during the asian session alone. The current time filter only lets stops it from trading on a specific date.

Can someone help me? I am not a programmer.

PipMaker v15_1 has a start time/end time parameter in the INPUT settings.

Be sure the time of your broker, lines up with the Asian session. Contact your broker for that information.

PipMaker_V15_5

Ok, here is updated version.

Some features requested, some cleanup,some fixes.

- Added TP (take profit)

- Added MinSpacing for AutoSpacing. If auto calculated spacing is less than MinSpacing is automatically set = MinSpacing

- Added OneDirectionOnly: won't allow buy and sell at same time

- Added compatibility with 5 difits brokers

- Added compatibility to ECN/STP brokers

- Changed time filter to not depend on day, only on hour and minute. Also rewrite of function.

- Removed Reference thing as is completely useless and added MagicNumber.

MagicNumber should define a EA, not a pair. Anyway all checks are done with MagicNumber AND Symbol so no problem here.

- Added ExclusiveMode: will not trade if any other open order is found, either same symbol and different magic, either other symbol no matter magic

- Rearange external variables to more logic order

- Some code cleanup

Live Experience on Alpari: UPDATE -> High Drawdown on september 21st

The EA has faced a high drawdown these last days. The max drawdown was near 400$.

 

Hey enforcer.

Excellent work on the EA with the new additions. The problem is, in a back test, i use the pause time functionality for trading the asian session eg 600 to 2100 which works fine. But when i want to trade the Uk session only and pause asian session (eg for AUDNZD) the back test runs, but not within the times I want.

Also, it works in back test, but does not work on my 5 digit live Alpari account. There are no error messages on my journal.

Any ideas?

 

For time filter - I made a quick patch, basically is working on same logic.

end time cannot be lower than start time, in other words is working on time interval for same day, like 14.20-22.10 can't work if timeframe cross midnight, like 22.30-3.30.

I can't say why not working on live, I'll take a look.

OK cool. I now inderstand that it cannot cross over midnight.

Do let me know your thoughts on why its not trading on the live account.

Thanks in advance.
