No, again, it will close a trade when it hits a Take Profit (set to 35 pips in this EA) or when it hits the Stop Loss (set to 200 pips). If any of the trades hit a Take Profit or a Stop Loss, it closes ALL trades. take a look at the spreadsheet ...

The EA is designed to close ALL trades when any of the other trades close. So, if one of the trades hit's a TakeProfit, it closes ALL trades. If one of the trades hits a Stop Loss, it closes ALL trades. So, in the example below, if the 100x80 was ...

THIS is what I like to see, up and down, up and down. That's pure money right there.

Assuming you have a stoploss set at 1000 (so the very first lot purchased will close at negative 1000 pips), yes, IF one pip move at .01 = $0.01 like it does with the EURUSDm on IBFX. Most currency pairs are not like that, so on most, 0.01 lots at 1 ...

Yikes!! Those settings made my dog cry A good idea for checking out your settings is to look at what would happen if things went against you a few hundred pips or so. In the case of the settings you had listed above, it was REALLY BAD. The ...

The 100x80 is designed to cover 800 pips, which is easily managed with that size of an account. Take a look at the below picture. You can see that as long as the currency retraces 100 pips in your favor within that 800 pip coverage, you make money. ...

OK, Bastardv05 is up (hoorah!) and here is the new Settings Finder all jazzed up along with a new calculation to find Down Draw at StopLoss (Thanks to NanningBob for this suggestion!) And even though it has the same version name, this version of ...

OK, here it is, Bastard v05. Auto Magic Number, auto settings (with Auto set to true). If it's set to false, OR if it doesn't recognize the pair, it defaults the settings and magic number to what you have in the settings. Please don't run this live ...

Here are the spread levels I'm looking to find settings for: 200 pips 250 pips 300 pips 450 pips 600 pips I'm looking to balance the reward:risk ratio along with the Max Down Draw and profit. Take a look at this setting:
- FrostCall replied Nov 12, 2008
NanningBob, take a look at this. Something interesting happens with the below settings, your reward is greater than the risk (4:3) Max Draw Down is in absolute value to make things easier.

I'm currently using Bastardv04 with AWE set to TRUE and FUNKY set to TRUE. Basically, it's designed to follow the trend using AWE on a 4 hour time scale. Still using: Multiplier: 1.5 TakeProfit: 100 Pip spread: 40 MaxTrades: 8 Or, the '100x40'. I'm ...

I made this little spread sheet to help folks (mostly me) very quickly and easily do the math and see what the changes are when you adjust the multiplier, take profit, pip spread, and max trades. I hope this helps. PS. 'Coverage' shows you what the ...

Closed down for the week. On the first page, you can see my current standings. Attached is the graph for the entire time I've had the account (about 5% of the trades are not with this system). Doing VERY well. 67% growth over a month and a half is ...

OK, how about this test bob... Attached is a 'flipped' version of 100/40 1D and also the normal version (so people can find it easily if they need to). The only difference is that with the flipped version, it buys where the normal version would sell ...

Look at that move! This is why nanningbob and others have dropped all AUS currency pairs this week. I would be wise to do the same.
- FrostCall replied Oct 8, 2008
You wont believe me unless I showed you the chart, but I cleared 50% last night while I slept. I left it running, not forseeing these drastic moves. They just happened to retrace like they should and the EA ate them alive. I'm up and awake now and ...

Not sure why I haven't posted on this thread for a while... This 100/40 EA is STILL doing great for me. The key of course is to monitor it and when the market starts going more than 200 - 300 pips in any one direction (even if it's in your favor), ...

Look how well the system did on that big spike and the retrace. It accurately signaled the close and the fact that it was going back up (ie, not a short position yet).
- FrostCall replied Oct 7, 2008
and the retrace! I'm out for a few hours at least. Made my pips for the day and I'll watch to see how everything goes. Also, Thank you SO much to gerrigirl for the stop order script. This is the first one that's actually worked for me!!
