Waka Waka update v3.17 is finally ready for you to download right now.
Here are the +50 different parameters ,which were all requested by clients and I added to the EA, and give the possibility to deeply customize how you want the EA to behave on your account/s.
What's new on Waka Waka v3.17:
- 'Allow sending SL & TP along with an order (for a non-ECN acc.)': if true, then the EA will send SL & TP along with orders. If false, then SL & TP will be set after the order is sent and executed.
- 'Randomize TP/SL Levels': if enabled, Waka Waka will randomly slightly change the TP/SL levels. This option allows you to have a unique TP/SL.
- 'Max Random Delay before sending Orders, sec [0-disabled]': maximum random delay in seconds before sending an order. Values over 15 seconds are not recommended.
- 'Trade on Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday/Friday': enable/disable trading on Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday/Friday.

- 'Font Size (1...8)': reduce this value if you're having trouble with the info panel.

For example, with it, EA won't take trades on USD pairs during bank holidays in the USA. It also works in Strategy Tester.

Format: Key[-Currency pair],Key[-Currency pair],.........,Key[-Currency pair]
Key â the currency of the news event or keyword in the news header. You can use multiple currencies without a separator, for example, USDAUDGBP.
If you specify a keyword, the letter case does not matter. For example, FOMC.
[-Currency pair] - optional parameter specifying which currency pair the rule applies to. For example -EURUSD.
Example: USD,AUDGBP-GBPUSD-NZDUSD,CHFEUR-EURUSD,FOMC,Rate-AUDCAD
