--Global update of The xCustomEA!
In the block for selecting the type of signal / filter SignalTypeIndicator / FilterTypeIndicator:
Added signals and filters for standard indicators from our Expert Advisor The X!
$$$ THE X MT4: https://www.mql5.com/en/market/product/11536
$$$ THE X MT5: https://www.mql5.com/en/market/product/1230
All 20 standard signals and filters have been added as the main signal / Filter / Signal to close positions!
You can use the standard indicator signals and filters from our The X along with your custom indicator signals.
This means that you can filter custom indicator signals from the market or the Internet using our standard filters.
And also use our standard strategies from The X as the main signal and apply a custom indicator as a filter!
A description of each signal and filter can be found in the user manual for The X: https://www.mql5.com/en/blogs/post/680043
Attention: when you select Standard Indicators, the SignalNameIndicator / SIGNALStrategyInputs / SignalBuferforBUY / SignalBuferforSELL fields do not work!
Attention: when you select Standard Indicators, the FilterNameIndicator / FilterStrategyInputs / FilterBuferforBUY / FilterBuferforSELL fields do not work!

- Added the TrailingStart = Starting point for the start of the Trailing function to the Trailingstop block.
The Expert Advisor will turn on the TrailingStop function when the position gains TrailingStart profit points.
If TrailingStart = 0 then TrailingStart = TrailingStop !!!

EAPADPRO v40 update, according to the new rules for using the MQL5 Market

Исправлена работа ClosePositionifChangeOWNSignal = OnlyIfProfit при работе с TypeTradeBUYSELL = Only Sell

- A new parameter has been added to the "Averaging" block:

--- CloseFirstAfterMaxAverage - Close the first averaging deal (the very first of the currently open averaging deals),

when the advisor has opened the maximum number of deals with the MaxOrdersOpen parameter.


If you want to keep a fixed number of Averager grid items (e.g. 5 grid items),

the smallest element must be closed with a loss when the 6th element is opened.




For example:

CloseFirstAfterMaxAverage = false MaxOrdersOpen = 5:

If the EA opens the maximum number of averaging deals, which is set by MaxOrdersOpen = 5,

then the next averaging deal cannot be opened.



CloseFirstAfterMaxAverage = true MaxOrdersOpen = 5:

If the EA opens the maximum number of averaging deals, which is set by MaxOrdersOpen = 5,

then the first averaging trade is closed and the next trade is opened.

================================================== ================================================== ======================


- A new parameter has been added to the "Additional opening" block:

--- CloseFirstAfterMaxAdd - Close the first additional opening deal along the trend (the very first of the current open deals),

when the EA opened the maximum number of deals with the MaxOrdersOpenAdditionalOpening parameter.

Same as CloseFirstAfterMaxAverage Paramter.

--- EAPADPRO v39

--- Added custom optimization criteria in genetic mode when choosing the Custom Max optimization mode.
You can set the minimum values ??at which the optimization will take into account the result during genetic enumeration!

In other words: You can set a condition: "the minimum number of deals" (or other parameters),
upon which this run will be counted as a result.

If during selection the advisor opens fewer deals than specified in the settings, then this run of the optimizer will not be counted as a result!

--Attention! For advanced users only.

OnTester_Min_Trades = 0; // Min Deals for optimization

OnTester_Min_Profit = 0; // Min Profit for optimization

OnTester_Min_ProfitFactor = 0; // Min ProfitFactor for optimization

OnTester_Min_Balance = 0; // Min Balance for optimization

OnTester_Min_Equity = 0; // Min Equity for optimization

OnTester_Max_Balance_DD = 0; // Max Balance DD% for optimization

OnTester_Max_Equity_DD = 0; // Max Equity DD% for optimization

- You can find a detailed description of this block of settings in the user manual!

Work with the StopTrading button has been modernized. Fixed a bug with random permission of signals to open positions when minimizing the panel.

- update EAPADPRO v38

Added new parameters of Lots when opening a position by signals:
AdditionalLots - An additional lot that will be added to each new deal based on a new signal
CoeficienteLots - Lot coefficient, by which the lot will be multiplied for each new deal on a new signal
(When the advisor is allowed to open more than one position for each signal ONlyOnePosbySignal = false / OnePosPerDirection = false)

Recompilation in the latest version of MetaTrader according to market rules.

MarketInfo(Symbol(),MODE_LOTSTEP)

Forced modifying comment length CommentToOrder up to 12 characters!
If the comment is longer than 12 characters, then the advisor will trim the extra characters.
Attention! For the EA to work correctly, set a comment no longer than 12 characters.
eg:
Right: ExpforexTheX
Not Right: Expforex The X Set # 12345

- EAPADPRO v35
- Fixed the Work on time error if the advisor TF is greater than the Minutes of the time function.
(For example, closing at 22:49 and TF = H1)

Added parameter Send_Push_without_opening_positions:
Sending PUSH notifications to the phone instead of opening positions!
When this parameter is enabled, the adviser will not open a new position on a signal, but only notify the user that
that a new signal has appeared. At the same time, all other functions will work as usual.
Allows the user to open a position on their own if the EA gives a signal.
But the adviser does not make this transaction and does not open a position, but only notifies the user about the signal.

IfProfTrail:
- if true, the Advisor starts the modification only when the position is gaining profit to Breakeven (setting stop loss on the break-even point) + TrailingStop profit points.
- if false - TrailingStop starts working immediately after opening a position and making a profit of 0 points and leaving a position as a profit.
In other words: IfProfTrail = false, then the trailing stop starts working immediately after the position is in profit.

Recompilation in the new version of the terminal.

-. Alert has been added if the specified indicator is not found!
The adviser will check the existence of the indicator and give a message stating that the indicator was not found with a request to check the correctness of the name!

1. Function ControlNewBarforSIGNAL Changed:
Added values:
ControlNewBarforSIGNALType = 1 = True smallest TF of the settings: New mode!
The EA selects the smallest TimeFrame, which was set by the parameters TF_IndSigToTrade1, FILTER_TF_IndSigToTrade1, FILTER_TF_IndSigToTrade2 ....
In this mode, the EA does not check the signal on the currently set TimeFrame, but on the TimeFrame for receiving a signal from indicators!
This mode is useful for those who use TF_IndSigToTrade1, FILTER_TF_IndSigToTrade1, FILTER_TF_IndSigToTrade2, other than Current.
ControlNewBarforSIGNALType = 2 = True current bar of the current TF: Old mode!
In this mode, the EA checks signals every new bar of the current TimeFrame!
If you use TF_IndSigToTrade1, FILTER_TF_IndSigToTrade1, FILTER_TF_IndSigToTrade2 other than Current, the results on each TimeFrame may be different.
We advise you to install the adviser on the TimeFrame M1!
ControlNewBarforSIGNALType = 1 = False: Do not use the control of the new bar to determine the signal!
Attention: When off, the EA checks signals every new tick! There may be delays in tapping and optimization!

2. Added variable ControlNewBarforOpenbySignal:
ControlNewBarforOpenbySignal = true: Old mode! Open positions on a signal only every new current bar of the current TimeFrame!
The EA opens positions, if there is a signal, only when a new bar of the current TimeFrame arrives!
ControlNewBarforOpenbySignal = false: New mode! Open positions on a signal every new bar from the signal Timeframe!
The EA opens positions, if there is a signal, immediately upon detection of a signal.
This mode is useful for those who use TF_IndSigToTrade1, FILTER_TF_IndSigToTrade1, FILTER_TF_IndSigToTrade2, other than Current.

EAPADPRO v31.

Added DistanceMartinAdditional - Coefficient of distance for additional order opening.
Added MinTimebeforenextAverage - Minimum time to the next averaging in minutes.

Code optimization, increased testing speed and optimization.
Starting the calculation of the average spread only when the user uses at least one parameter for the average spread.

Indicator example file updated! + StrategyShift removed from indicator file !!!
Added operation mode for the current zero bar(Shift=0)!
Attention! The current bar only forms a signal, so we do not recommend using Bar # 0(Shift=0) to receive signals!
Attention! Some indicators forcibly do not draw a signal at 0 bar! - It is right. Therefore, the adviser will not open positions using Shift = 0.

The SaveTPafterTrailingStop function has been updated to work in virtual stop loss / take profit mode with VirtualStops = true

- The ClosePositionifChangeOWNSignal parameter is divided into 3 values: False (disabled), True (enabled), OnlyifProfit (Only if the positions are in profit);
- EAPADPRO v25 update
- Additional languages added to the panel: Spanish, Portuguese (Brazil), German, Chinese, Japanese;
The translation was made using the GOOGLE Translator + MQL + Terminal site!
If you find an error in your language, please report it in messages. Thank!
- Increase the speed of the panel;

- Optimization of the code, increasing the speed of testing.
- When you first start the advisor, an indicator template file is created for programming your strategy.
A file is created in your terminal \ Files folder with name "Ind - The xCustomEA TEMPLATE.mq*"
You can open this file and follow the programming instructions of your custom strategy.

- The ability to specify and fill in external variables (which can be configured from the advisor) has been added to the xCustom signal type
SIGNALStrategyInputs, CloseStrategyInputs, FILTERStrategyInputs can now be used with indicators written in our example (xCustomEA)
Attention! In the version for MetaTrader4, it is forbidden to transfer string parameters! When passing string parameters, the indicator may not load correctly!
- In connection with the update of the sample files and our custom indicator Ind - The xCustomEA TEMPLATE, we updated all the variables of the adviser and added an additional type: to the SLTPTypeIndicator type xCustomEA, to call from our example indicator.
Also added is the variable SLTP_IndSigToSlTp to specify the strategy number in the Ind file - The xCustomEA TEMPLATE

- Fixed bugs according to user messages
- Reworked system for receiving signals
- Modified indicator indicator files for receiving signals for the operation of new functions and blocks! Be attentive!
================================================= ===============================
- Update EAPADPRO to version 23:
Added controls for speed testing and pause in the strategy tester;
Added a table of current open positions in the strategy tester;
================================================= ===============================

- Added block control signal closure for custom indicator.
This block allows you to close open positions by signals of a custom indicator.
It is used if a custom indicator provides signals for closing positions (separately from the signals for opening a new position).
If you need to tell the adviser signals to close positions, then you need to specify: the indicator name (may be identical with the indicator name for closing positions), a set of parameters (If they differ from the default indicator parameters), TimeFrame, Bar Shift, and number buffers to receive signals for closing. Separately for BUY and SELL positions.
Attention: If you want to close a position when receiving the opposite signals, then you do not need to use this block.

- External parameters Signal for Close options:

CloseNameIndicator = ""; // CloseNameIndicator -> Indicator name to get the signal to close pos
CloseTypeIndicator = xArrow; // CloseTypeIndicator -> Type of indicator signal to close
CloseTimeFrame = PERIOD_CURRENT; // CloseTimeFrame -> TimeFrame of signal to close
Close_shift = 1; // Close_shift -> Bar number to receive signal to close
CloseStrategyInputs = ""; // CloseStrategyInputs -> Inputs Of Ind, separated by commas
CloseBuferforBUY = 4; // CloseBuferforBUY -> Buffer number for close BUY
CloseBuferforSELL = 5; // CloseBuferforSELL -> Buffer number for close SELL
Close_IndSigToClose = 0; // Close_IndSigToClose -> Indicator number to get Close signal
================================================= ===============================

- Added Stop Loss and Take Profit control unit based on custom indicator signals.
This block allows you to set a stop loss or take profit when opening positions on the signal, which can be taken from the values ​​of the custom indicator buffers.
If the Custom Indicator has separate buffers for getting Stop Loss or Take Profit, you can use these values ​​when opening a new position.

Attention: Stoploss or take profit is set only when a new position is opened using a new signal. The functions of averaging, additional opening use the parameters of stop loss and take profit from past variables. Stoploss and take profit obtained from the custom indicator in Averaging and additional opening are not accepted.
Stop loss and take profit from a custom indicator is also set when using the ForcedModifySLTP function.

If you need to tell the adviser the stop loss and take profit values ​​from the custom indicator, then you need to specify: the indicator name
(may be identical with the name of the indicator for opening / closing positions), a set of parameters (If they differ from the parameters of the indicator by
default), TimeFrame, Shift bar, and the number of buffers to get values. Separately for BUY and SELL positions and separately for StopLoss and TakeProfit.

- External parameters Custom StopLoss and TakeProfit from Indicators options:

SLTPNameIndicator = ""; // SLTPNameIndicator -> Indicator name to get the signal of SL / TP
SLTPTypeIndicator = xPrice; // SLTPTypeIndicator -> Type of indicator signal of SL / TP
SLTPTimeFrame = PERIOD_CURRENT; // SLTPTimeFrame -> TimeFrame of signal of SL / TP
SLTP_shift = 1; // SLTP_shift -> Bar number to receive signal of SL / TP
SLTPStrategyInputs = ""; // SLTPStrategyInputs -> Inputs of the ind, separated by commas
SLTPBuferforBUY_StopLoss = -1; // SLTPBuferforBUY_StopLoss -> Buffer number of SL for BUY
SLTPBuferforSELL_StopLoss = -1; // SLTPBuferforSELL_StopLoss -> Buffer number of SL for SELL
SLTPBuferforBUY_TakeProfit = -1; // SLTPBuferforBUY_TakeProfit -> Buffer number of TP for BUY
SLTPBuferforSELL_TakeProfit = -1; // SLTPBuferforSELL_TakeProfit -> Buffer number of TP for SELL
================================================= ===============================
