Discussion of article "Studying candlestick analysis techniques (part IV): Updates and additions to the application" - page 2

 
Hi, what's up?
I've successfully completed all the stages of the study, implementing all the tools and getting good results in the tests.
Now I'd like to add a Trailing Stop method to Pattern Expert, either by including it in the code or script. Is this possible? Any ideas or directions I should look in?
Thanks for everything, big hug!
 
Yep, even 4 articles. A lot of text, code, a beautiful application, but alas, all this has very little to do with candlestick analysis. I thought at least by the 4th article you were told the main misunderstandings to correct, but no, alas.
 

Dear Alexander, this is a beautiful pattern analysis tool! Thank you for sharing. I would love to give it a look but I am not able to start it.

I placed the archive content under MQL5 folder and compiled the PatternAnalyzer.mq5 with no errors.

Now, how do I start it? I tried to attach it to a EURUSD/D1 chart but it suddenly exits with error:  "Experts initializing of PatternAnalyzer (EURUSD,Daily) failed with code 1"

I've been able to start it in the Strategy Tester: the UI draws on the chart foreground but it doesn't seem to be usable (the buttons and combos are not clickable) as the mouse seems to act on the background chart.

I am using MT5 V5 build 2380. Any clue?

Thanks, Joe

Hi, Check this version

Dear Alexander, this one works like a charm!

Is there any chance to get the source code? I would really like to dive into it, understand the logic you've implemented and try to learn as much as possible on this practice (MT5 Programs development). I am a newbie.

In any case, let me thank you and wish you the best.

The article has all the sources. Study them.

OK sounds right.. I was just curious to understand why that one was failing to run.

I tried to debug it and found it exits with error while drawing one of the several buttons.. I wonder why!

In any case, thank you again!

Best

Debugging flashbacks suggest logging out of these two, add a time frame,, not sure why these two time frames can cause flashbacks, only commented-out command
 
Thank you very much for your article, it's very well written and solves a problem that I've been thinking about for a long time but didn't know how to solve.

Большое спасибо

this is just an opinion, not a fact, but someone will find a lot of useful information.
