arto74 · #1 12-02-2008, 04:30 PM

I'm getting pretty tired of these errors, and no one has good solutions. I'm getting 2 errors, can they not be fixed? uninstalling, and reinstalling, turning your computer off, and on. Are there no actual solutions to these 2 bugs of the FAPS autopilot? Please, i need some help!!!!

alligator jaw error=129; desc=invalid price
alligator jaw error=4066; desc=requested history data in update state.

I've tried contacting support over the phone, just leave a message, and it doesn't get returned.
I have emailed support 3 times, no answer
I have asked in this forum a few times, but I need help from the guys that know this system, the moderators, and super moderators, or someone that can just tell me how to fix these system errors.

PLEASE HELP ME

HI,

Those are some of the same exact same errors I got... It turned out that my account had been changed to a read only account at the broker (I was running multiple computers with the same account)--big no-no... (had to contact broker)

Those look like expert errors...What errors are you getting in your Journal?

arto74 · #3 12-02-2008, 09:07 PM

in the journal it just keeps saying everything was excepted, but the program kept opening and closing.
i also found out from support that alligator 129 is a parameters error. One of my perameters is wrong, i'm going to keep looking into this and give an update. By the way, i'm only running one account on 1 computer.

i also noticed that the autopilot did buy a contract (and closed it when it made the profit), but still no luck with fixing the alligator errors

Have you tried a different broker, that looks like the price feed is junk based on the frequency of the error you are seeing there.

It seems like at some point I had the same alligator error. I don't know if this will fix it as I am not real sure what I did to work it out. One of the things I did was to update my history data. Go to tools, history center, double click EUR/USD in left column. Then click on 1M tab and hit download at the bottom. Let it down load the data. Like I said, I tried many things as you have and I am not sure what the fix was.

i'm not sure if this is the fix, but it might be. When i opened my demo account, i said my deposit was 3000. But later on, i wanted it to be 500, because that's what i'm going to start my real account with. Anyways, i tried fitting the settings with 500, instead of 3000. So after all my hoopla with the alligator errors, i decided just to uninstall my metatrader4 and the account i had with my brokerage. Then i installed a new account with the same brokerage, but instead i changed my deposit to 500, to fit what i was trying to do. The new settings have stablized my account, including allowing my computer to run smoother. that's right, it actually made a difference to my pc performance, because my pc bogged with all those alligator errors. I hope i'm some help, even to myself.

Madbear · #8 12-03-2008, 04:09 AM

Not sure if your problem has been fixed but but I also got lots of Aligator errors on one of my accounts when I had the take profit set to 10 on a 5 decimal data feed which you seem to have. If you have a 5 decimal feed instead of 4 you should set the take profit to 100 not 10.

Hope this helps.

arto74 · #9 12-03-2008, 11:25 PM

hi again got all my alligator errors fixed. this is what i did:
first of all it's a big bear to continuously uninstall and reinstall, but i made sure that my settings in the strategy tester were the exact settings in the autopilot as well as the exact settings of my initial demo deposit amount was. that fixed the alligator jaw error 4066, than i took some great advice from Madbear (thank you sir), and made sure my take profit was 100 instead of 10 and my slipage was 30 instead of 3. I had it set for 4 digits behind the decimal point, but my broker have 5 digits behind the decimal points. That corrected the alligator jaw error 129. Hope this helps others as well.
