Topic: Strategy has no trades in MT4 backtester nor live

Hi,

I am using quite a lot strategies generated by FSB Pro so far - they all work fine in live trading and in the MT4 backtester. However, there is one which is producing trades in FSB, but not in the MT4 backtester nor in live trading ever, although it´s supposed to be 98% of the time in the market. All other strategies I´ve found do work fine in the MT4 backtester and in live-trading and I can´t really figure why this one does not trade at all.

I have attached it to this post. It´s for EURUSD H1, spread for generating was 4 points (average of my broker), 8 points slippage, no swap charges.

Would appreciate some help why it doesn´t produce any trades as I can´t seem to find the reason.

Thank you:)

I went over FRAMA once more, reconverted and checked, it works. You can reload it in the repo, both C# and mqh, and try it again. If this doesn't fix your problem then most probably the problem lies in another custom indi - the round number II plus.

I will report back shortly, but I suspect it´s the round number II plus ... it displays strange values in live trading, like 1.00500 and 1.00000 for the next entries, which is odd given EURUSD´s current price.

I took a quick glance at both sources of round plus and mqh is different from C# version, no wonder there are problems! If I'm not mistaken it's not the first time there are problems with this indi, although the author adjusted it the last time, the problems persist. I'm taking liberty of removing this indi from the repo. Sorry Geektrader about the complications!
