What's Next (Post-Restart)

  1. Verify MT5 Compilation - Check Journal for successful v1.12 compile
  2. Monitor New Trades - Watch for "Volatility filter BLOCKED" messages
  3. Compare Performance - Expect fewer trades but higher quality
  4. Backtest - Run strategy tester on v1.12 vs v1.11

Key Code References

Volatility Filter (lines 200-223)

bool CheckVolatilityFilter() {
   if(InpUseVolatilityFilter && ATRHandle != INVALID_HANDLE) {
      double atr[1], close = iClose(_Symbol, _Period, 0);
      if(CopyBuffer(ATRHandle, 0, 0, 1, atr) > 0) {
         double atrPct = (atr[0] / close) * 100;
         if(atrPct < InpMinATRPercent) {
            Print("Volatility filter BLOCKED: ATR too low");
            return false;
         }
      }
   }
   // ... ADX filter ...
   return true;
}

Trade Entry Call (line 616)

if(!CheckVolatilityFilter())
   return;  // Skip trade - filters not passed

Notes for Future Self

  • All work saved to Gitea - accessible from any machine
  • MT5 data persists in Docker volume
  • v1.12 designed to reduce choppy market losses
  • If filters are too aggressive, adjust: InpMinATRPercent or InpMinADX

Session End - Safe to restart
