I do about 100 option trades per day using signals from VP. Are you interested in chatting about how I use VP for option trading?

How are you getting on with VP? Are you still looking for some mentoring?

I forgot to mention (in my previous post) that I also use VP to trade options (mostly credit spreads) and those trades have been more than 90% wins. VP needs to include the ability to avoid stocks with upcoming earnings announcements (using ...

It took me months to find this discussion group (too busy trading), but I'm disappointed to see that there hasn't been much posted recently. I've been using VP for about six months and love it. My stock trades (over 1,000) have only made a small net ...

Don, just letting you know that the Cointegration EA is working fine. I had to make up some values, but it's done quite a few trades and looks pretty sound. Looking forward to getting some real values from you. In the mean time, I have found some ...

Don, can you give me parameters for at least one set for testing. I have finished the Cointegration EA and ready to test.

Hi EZ, I'm working on the EA now. It won't be very difficult. Am I correct the the lot size for Pair2 is equal to the lot size of Pair1 times the coefficient? I'll be ready to test soon, can you send me some parameters for (say) three or four sets? ...

Ok, I thought that's what you meant by "spread", but the term confused me. I can develop this EA, but is there not something like already floating around? It will take me a couple of days and I'm already stretched to my limit. We're building a new ...

I have to tell you that I'm having a bit of trouble understanding what you want to do. I'll get there in the end, but struggling a bit right now. You say "spread" and I'm thinking the difference between bid and ask and I can't relate that to what ...

I might make a new version of the EA that just takes the single position and compare the results. The proof, as they say, is in the pudding. I can't answer the question otherwise.

You are correct. There's been hundreds of posts about "Why not just short USDCAD and save some spreads?". I don't have a good answer to that question, do you?

Great to hear from someone delving into this area. I may not be the best person to answer your questions, but I'll give it a try. A trader by the name of "Ronaldo" wrote the EA. I just spruced it up and fixed a few bugs. But, I'm working on it full ...

Some questions for those of you who understand better than I do about ZScore and how we are trying to use it. I watched six sets running for 14 hours with the corrected code and the ZScore didn't get much higher than 0.5 on any of them. Do you still ...

Oops... I just found another serious bug in the original code for ZScore 3-pair". Line 128 was moving a value to "C2", then using the value in "C3". I don't understand how it has been working as well as it has. One always wonders whether it's a bug ...

Ok, here is the fixed EA and the OrderReliable library needed to ensure that all trades are executed. Just put OrderReliable_120205.mqh in your Include folder. I suggest that you use the OrderReliable library in all of your EA's. The documentation ...

ZScore 3-pair has a serious problem. If any of the orders fail (off-quotes or whatever), it doesn't try again. This leaves you a high risk of loss. I will fix and upload it later today. I will use the OrderReliable library, which will be uploaded as ...

The following relates to the ZScore 3-pair EA only. I carefully reviewed the M15 data available at MATAF and came up with the following sets that I have been running for the last 24 hours. Only one trade (AUDCAD/USDCAD/AUDUSD) and it was profitable. ...
