Unfortunately, the Sleep function doesn't work in the strategy tester. There is another way to do to get the sleep during backesting, but I have not it in mind. You should find the solution on mql4.com

Hi at all,

Funyoo I'm sorry if I've seemed arrogant, but my english isn't good. Sorry

I'm testing your EA: "PSar SuperTrend EA v202.mq4 "
You've done really a great job!

I read the code but i don't understand the exactly difference between v.202 and v.201;
You wrote: "TrailingProfit parameter added (TrailingStop enabled when TrailingProfit reached)." (v.202) How much pips stops has?
How much is the step? and trailingprofit?
.....because the value on the code is always 0; and when PSar SuperTrend EA v202 place an order on my metatrader no stop or limit order is placed.

I've modified your PSar SuperTrend EA v202 in PSar SuperTrend EA v202 SL 50 TP 100 TS 75 Tstep 25.mq4
I've tried to put:
Stop loss 50
Trailing Profit 100
Trailing stop 75
Trailing step 25
---->
extern string S3="---------------- Order Management";

extern int StopLoss=50;//|------------------------stop loss
extern int TakeProfit=0;//|----------------------take profit
extern bool HideSL=false;//|---------------------hide stop loss
extern bool HideTP=false;//|---------------------hide take profit
extern int TrailingProfit=100;//|------------------trailing stop after profit reached
extern int TrailingStop=75;//|--------------------trailing stop
extern int TrailingStep=25;//|--------------------trailing step
extern int BreakEven=0;//|-----------------------break even
extern int MaxOrders=100;//|---------------------maximum orders allowed
extern int Slippage=3;//|------------------------slippage
extern int Magic=2009;//|------------------------magic number

and also down:

extern string S6="---------------- Extras";

extern bool Hedge=false;//|----------------------enter an opposite trade
extern int HedgeSL=50;//|-------------------------stop loss
extern int HedgeTP=0;//|-------------------------take profit
extern bool ReverseSystem=false;//|--------------buy instead of sell, sell instead of buy

Is it correct?

this is the result on EU H4 from 2008/01: very low, isn't it?
PSar SuperTrend EA v202 SL 50 TP 100 TS 75 Tstep 25.mq4



Funyoo I've a problem with first EA of this thread:
Parabolic SAR EA.mq4 and also Double Parabolic SAR EA.mq4 don't work; it says: Cannot open .... on EU h4, Why?
Someone can help me please?

Thank you very much


p.s.s.
I'm trading manual mode in a real account, with parabolic sar indicator on EU and UC on H4 timeframe (sometimes H1) with good results (from about a year). But I have no more time to analyse graph, and so I'm thinking about an EA robotised.
I didn't used the supertrend, but it may be a good idea insert it on EA (but only in few cross).

Hey Funyoo,

I have slightly modified one of your EA's to serve slightly a different purpose and have had good results in backtesting as much data as i could.

Please find attached the EA and the results.

If you find it worthwhile i need some help with more modifications to make this much better.

At the moment, it will only do buy orders and not sell orders and i have no idea why.
Also, if a function could be setup so it would close the trade if price touched the 2nd or 3rd EMA. Is that possible?

I personally think this would be great if we can get past these obstacles. You will see what i mean. This uses the trend to its full potential but i know there is more room for improvement.

Thanks mate...

EU H1. Step 0.002 Maximum 0.2.

MDD : 7.82%

Ratio : 16.62 (Profit Factor/MDD)

This Ea follow this simple rules?

---- PSAR(downside) show buy signal --> buy order;
---- PSAR(upside) show sell signal --> sell order;
Exit rules:
if PSAR changes position. ---->close; (Psar signal will take into consideration only when candelstick is closed! and not first)

This Ea doesn't works on my MT4: Cannot open file "Parabolic SAR EA.mq4"; Why?

Here, I'll give you some of my Gucci stuff.

It still says i need the supertrend.ex4 indicator, that is the error i am getting when backtesting

Here's a proprietary MTF Supertrend for you as well. You'll really like this.
