Yep.... undecided is the right word to describe the situation. I'll explain more later.

Three Pairs Hedging

Actuall, not weird. Set 5 in the two instances traded at the same time because the spread met the criteria at the same time. The "false" side for set 5 is hard coded as SSB and always trades that way. When AutoDirection is set to true, the EA ...

Ok guys and gals.... an update for you. I'm including the indicator so people don't have to go hunting for it. This update incorporates the following: 1. A display on the chart so you know if AutoDirection and/or SmartEntry are turned on. 2. Fixed a ...

Three Pairs Hedging

You already have that capability. Just turn off AutoDirection and enter the symbols you want and BBS or SSB for that set. I'm pretty well satisfied that all of my changes since yesterday's release are working properly. I'll be posting an update ...

Three Pairs Hedging

Hi Paris, No... it's not a bug.... it's a feature. I'm sure you only see that on the instance running with AutoDirection set to true? It's basically saying that it doesn't have enough information to decide whether to use BBS or SSB. That will change ...

Three Pairs Hedging

"Thanks" to anyone testing this EA. I've only had one trade per instance (autodirection true and false) on all accounts (live and demo) so far. It's interesting that one instance used BBS and the other used SSB for the same pair. Due to the large ...

If you would like to help with this project, it would be HUGE if you could run two instances of this EA on a demo account for a couple of days this coming week. Instance #1 with AutoDirection = true. Instance #2 with AutoDirection = false. Both on ...

Major upgrade attached. Important notes follow. Please don't use this new version without reading the following. 1. Thanks to a couple members of this group, I now (almost) understand that trading equal sizes of the three pairs in each set is only a ...

Three Pairs Hedging

Hi Jeuro and thanks again, I am testing a new version that calculates the net exposure and trades each set using BBS or SSB depending on whether it "thinks" the net exposure is going to go up or down. It's working nicely (I have tick mill for ...

Three Pairs Hedging

Thanks, Jeuro, for taking the time to explain this to me. I just wish that I wasn't exhausted from no sleep for several days while working on this EA. I understand everything up to where you say that the above BBS deal is essentially long GBPUSD. I ...

Hello Milou and thanks for your comments. I agree with you 100%... with the benefit of hindsight. It will be a simple change and I'm sure it's a change for the better. When I change it, however, I will make it optional for those who have finally ...

Three Pairs Hedging

Another update.... This version (19) includes: 1. Shows MaxDD for each set on the chart. 2. Pauses after a SL.... similar to the pause after a TP. 3. Not pausing after a SL makes no sense. Why would you quit a losing position with a loss, only to ...

Three Pairs Hedging

I could use some help. A couple of members of this group posted something like this: Buy 1.0 aaabbb Buy 1.0 bbbccc Sell 1.0 aaaccc This resulted in a net long (or short) x.xx lots of bbbccc Something to that effect. 1. Can someone show me how they ...

Three Pairs Hedging

I hope the EA makes a lot of money for you. MaxSpread comes into play with or without using SmartEntry. It won't trade a set if ANY of the three pairs has a spread greater than MaxSpread. While you can get more trades by increasing MaxSpread, the ...

Three Pairs Hedging

Thanks, Bruce. MaxDD (as a display) has been on my TO DO list. I was just waiting for someone to ask for it. The info displayed on the chart is getting "busy".

Three Pairs Hedging

New version with StopLoss. Do I need to apologise for taking up so much space here? This version includes the ability to force a stop loss for any set. 1. To use it, set StopLossFullLot to the dollar equivalent for a full lot where you want to place ...

Three Pairs Hedging

New version for you. This one lets you change MaxSets on the fly. I decided that is the easiest way to stop new trades from taking place. This feature has other benefits as well. 1. If, for any reason, you want to change MaxSets, just click on ...

Three Pairs Hedging

Hi Bruce, Like you, I think that information would be very useful. I've just been too busy getting the EA to function properly. Hope to have the "stop trading" working today.... if my wife doesn't give me to me things to do!!

Three Pairs Hedging

If you are running with TriangularHedge_016 and not getting any (or many) trades, you have a couple of choices: 1. Set SmartEntry to false; 2. Set SmartEntryAddOn to 0.00010 (first). If that doesn't work, set it to zero (0.0). This aspect is still a ...

Three Pairs Hedging

Ah ha.... this is an easy problem. Your broker doesn't allow hedging. You will have to change brokers or give up on this EA.
