I was asked to start my own thread and so I would like to keep this thread about the EA I've developed. I would not like to start mixing different versions of EAs written by several others. Hopefully in doing this we all stay on track and of one mind and I will implement all the ideas I can for the EA as long as they enhance the original system and remain true to where it came from. New EAs can be written for other ideas so let's keep on track for each of the ones I've developed.

Rules:

is the starting point
EA places 3 pending long positions 50 points above
EA places 3 pending short positions 50 points below

For each of these sets of pending orders...

1st order: TP 25 / SL 50
2nd order: TP 50 / SL 50
3rd order: TP None / SL 50

Long example:

Pending long positions are triggered
Pending short orders are moved up 50 pips to the week's open price
If the long positions hit 50 (also closing trade 1 & 2) then the 3rd order is set to break even on the stop loss and the short positions are moved up another 50 pips (now 50 above week's open price)
Short positions will be moved up 50 each time another 50 is gained on the long trades (my defaults but can be changed). The 3rd long trade also moves it's stop loss up by 50 pips at a time (i.e. 100+ then stop loss locks in 50 and so on to the extent of where the Short orders follow).
If the long trades double back and hit the stop loss then the short trades are triggered and exactly the opposite happens.

/*

Version 1.0b:

* Merged v1.0a versions together where the EA determines your broker and uses the right bar count.
* Fixed a bug related to closing and reopening the EA/MT4 where SL would be set to nothing.
* You will want to remove/delete the original EA as it contains bugs and the new EA will not overwrite it because the name is different. Any charts that had the old EA will need to be updated with the new one. From now on this should not be an issue as the name will not change anymore.

Version 1.0c:

* Fixed a bug where the update to break even was being set even if stop loss was set higher/lower securing profit. Now as it was intended... if pending short trades (entry) is greater than the break even on the long trades, then the long order stop loss is moved up securing more pips and vice versa.
* EA now uses the open price for the week rather than the close of the previous week.
* MoveInfinite variable added which overrides Move01 - Move04 if set to True. Orders will be adjusted everytime price moves by the OrderDistance.
* EA now closes open and pending orders on Sunday as long as the EA is running.

Version 1.0d:

* Reworked how orders are placed/maintained
* Removed MoveInfinite and Move01 through Move04

Version 1.0e:

* Fixed bug with order calculation

Version 1.0f (68 downloads):

* Reworked how orders are placed/maintained (again...)
* replaced stop loss setting with order distance
* Added BrokerCloseHour

Version 1.0g (95 downloads):

* DisplayProfitLoss added (Display Profit/Loss on Chart comments?)
* Send E-mail when new orders are placed
* Send E-mail when order total changes (does not count pending orders)

Version 2.0:

* Fixed bug with pip calculation on profit display
* Fixed problem with E-mail display text
* Modified key areas to work with live accounts
* Live version made available

Pending additions/changes:

* E-mail status of EA
* Order modified, closed, deleted, etc.? (Not sure how far to go just yet)

string Version = "WeeklyOpen AutoTrader v2.0";

This system should start on Sunday when the market opens.
This should be run on Daily charts.
I do not guarantee any results especially if you decide to change the default settings or run this in another time frame. The EA looks back by bars so if it's not on a Daily chart you will get the wrong price.
The EA may work (place trades) if turned on during the week but not what I envisioned and results are not guaranteed. It's really meant to start on Sunday and run through Friday's close.
It is extremely important that MT4 run all week with the charts open and EA attached. No EA can do its thing unless everything is running. That's why you have an EA to trade for you.
The EA will only run on demo accounts. I will release a live version if it pans out to be something.
I will try to post weekly updates at least of the results.
