Multi-timeframe trading and one buy/one sell per period
09 Mar 2022, 13:15

Hi, I am building a basic EA to test multi-timeframe trading, and I am having some trouble in that bot does not create any trades.

The bot needs to buy when Bull Price > Previous Period High (Bull Price = Price + Safety in Pips)
And sell when Bear Price < Previous Period Low open sell (Bear Price = Price - Safety in Pips)

Additionally, one of each (buy or sell) is allowed per trading day.

 

Here I have attached the code I am having problems with:

 

using System;
using System.Linq;
using cAlgo.API;
using cAlgo.API.Indicators;
using cAlgo.API.Internals;
using cAlgo.Indicators;

namespace cAlgo.Robots
{
    [Robot(TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC, AccessRights = AccessRights.FullAccess)]

        public string _name { get; set; }

        [Parameter("Start Hour", DefaultValue = 6.0)]
        public double _starttime { get; set; }

Hi amusleh,

I have one more issue if you can help me.

In the bot above, is there any way to check in the OnStart if:
In the _hlbars period,  the one entry for the day has already happened? If so, the bot cannot trade until the next period.

 

For example, if HL is set to daily and I start the bot at 2 PM and today's entry happened at 1 PM, I don't want the bot to trade until the next day.

What is happening now is when I initialize the bot, the logic sees that the current price is higher than the previous high, and makes a buy immediately. This is wrong since the ideal entry has passed.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Hi,

You can use the loaded Bars BarOpened event instead of Bot OnBar method, ex:

using System;
using System.Linq;
using cAlgo.API;
using cAlgo.API.Indicators;
using cAlgo.API.Internals;
using cAlgo.Indicators;

        [Parameter("Start Hour", DefaultValue = 6.0)]
        public double _starttime { get; set; }

        [Parameter("Stop Hour", DefaultValue = 18.0)]
        public double _stoptime { get; set; }

        [Parameter("Max Lots", DefaultValue = 100.0, MinValue = 0.01, MaxValue = 1000.0)]
        public double _maxlots { get; set; }

        [Parameter("Starting Risk (%)", DefaultValue = 1.0, MinValue = 0.01, MaxValue = 100.0)]
        public double _startingrisk { get; set; }

        [Parameter("Risk Step (%)", DefaultValue = 1.0, MinValue = 0.01, MaxValue = 100.0)]
        public double _riskstep { get; set; }

        [Parameter("Take Profit", DefaultValue = 5.0, MinValue = 0.1, MaxValue = 100.0)]

            if (_win && _activerisk < _maxrisk)
            {
                _result = _activerisk + _riskstep;
            }
            else if (!_win)
            {

        private double GetVolume()

    }
}

This way the execution logic will be executed only once per bar based on your selected time frame.
