Macman, Are you using MPTM with your set up? Sounds not if you have no S/L. Octo

FLTR Pre-Recovery Version — I'm not fully up to speed on this thread, but thought I'd report in on my results with the latest FTLR before the version with recovery features. FXDD demo started on August 14, 2010 with balance of $10,000 13 ...

FTLR Results — I have been running the new version on FXDD demo for 2 weeks: D1, 14 pairs, RSI=true, no MPTM 30 closed profitable trades No losing trades Maximum negative UPL less than 10%. Seems to be very stable. Great work Steve!

Whip, Why do you think using MPTM is important? What have you observed when running FTLR without it? I'm running with the RSI filter and so far all profitable trades with drawdown only as much as 4%. I presume the longer I run it I will see higher ...

Revised Template - Check for Errors! — SteveFX, I hope it is not too presumptuous of me, but attached are two revised templates: 00_stevefx monstermuncher setup: This template includes only the EA and the RSI indy. It removes the ADR indy text ...

I think a better way to remove the text on the chart is to go into the EA properties and set "ShowUserFeedback" to false. This will take the text off the chart and will not require removing the EA from the chart. Otherwise I think you would have to ...

Problems Getting Loaded — I noticed that the template does not include the EA, so just loading the template will not add the EA to the chart, and therefore, no lines will be drawn. I think this may have caused some confusion in loading the ...

FTLR Demo Results — Demo testing on FXDD. Gave up on IBFX -- just could not get it to work on my platform with FTLR. Since FXDD demo started August 4, 2010: 7 Closed trades in profit 2 Trades cancelled (1 a buy stop, 1 a buy sell) 0 Trades ...

Thank you SteveFX for sharing this manual strategy. I'll put it up on some charts on demo and give it a whirl.

Obnoxious, I'm using RSI, but not the sq_steve filter.

FTLR Demo — Have a running demo on FXDD. So far 2 closed profitable trades, maximum floating loss 3.2%.

Hi Obnoxious, I will try downloading the latest version and see if that makes any difference. Were you previously getting old tick errors or just no trades?
- octomanoak replied Jul 31, 2010
Rob, Would you mind posting your set file, pairs and timeframes for your demo(s) of FTLR? I'm not getting any trades on IBFX demo or on FXDD demo either. On IBFX demo I still get old tick errors, but on FXDD demo I get no errors, just no trades. I ...

Problems with IBFX Demo — I was just informed by IBFX support that IBFX changed their order entry type 2 weeks ago to "market execution" meaning the stop loss and take profit can only be entered after the initial buy/sell order has been ...

Defaults are 512000 bars in history and 65000 in chart, but I doubt that any EA requires that many bars for whatever indicators it may use. Perhaps someone knows more about this and can comment.
- octomanoak replied Jul 23, 2010
Wow. That is great help BullRun. How many bars should I need? I have the platform set to maximum 2000 bars for history/chart to save PC resources. Should I increase the number of bars as a general rule?
- octomanoak replied Jul 22, 2010
Rob, Dunno how you did it. My IBFX demo of FTLR won't trade. I only get old tick errors. Octo

Congrats — Steve, I look forward to taking this new puppy for a spin. Sorry to be invisible lately...been under the weather (nothing serious) and functioning on one cylinder. Slowly getting back into the swing. Regards, Octo

RSI Fix Version — At what point is the bot supposed to set up the pending trades? Is this at the redraw of each new fib?
