EU M5 KISS V3 — Chart attached. Purple line is LWMA60. I have highlighted the trades (correction - 5 winning trades today) with ticks. The EA leaves red and green dotted lines all over the chart, and I wonder whether this is throwing its logic ...

I don't understand at all how this thing decides when to trade, but when it does, it's not at all bad. 4 winners, 0 losers today. Full of bugs though - screen information says it's in a trade when it isn't, says there's no direction when LWMA60 is ...

HI Guys, There seems to be a small problem with closing trades now the LWMA60 filter has been added. A trade is now only deemed 'valid' if it's on the correct side of the MA. But previously a trade closed on a signal in the other direction. This no ...

Try setting ECN to True - I have to do this to get a trade, even though my broker isn't ECN.

So sorry to hear this. Please could you post the latest code, as I believe you were testing a version which didn't consume so much CPU resource? I love Pippo (my favourite EA), but am restricted to trading just a few pairs live because of this ...

Yeah I know. Just used the strategy tester to get some idea of optimal TP and SL. The results are forward demo tests.

Update on demo trades since 9/9/11 — Used strategy tester, with appalling data quality, to work out best guesses at TPs and SLs. M1 - no direction filters, trading hours 6am-5pm UK time, TP=10, SL=12 35 Wins, 25 Losses +50 pips => trades ...

Doing better today. So far 6 winners & 2 losers (running 24/5 now without direction filters). Overall: 11 winners, 10 losers since last Friday. Still think this could be more profitable with some tweaking ....

Hi Gertje, I thought about doing this, but haven't tried it yet. Dietcoke knows what the problem is, so I'm waiting for/hoping for the new release soon before I have to settle for work-arounds. As far as I can see, V18 is fine apart from this issue. ...

I've put v18 on my live account (very conservative lot sizes) on just 6 pairs because of the resource/memory problems it creates. It's behaving perfectly so far - no pending trades missed and all trading logic seems fine. Love this EA - just can't ...

Observations from watching this trade last Friday: 1. Losses would be smaller if a trade were closed on a MA cross in opposite direction 2. Best trades are those where fractal trigger was on a candle where high/low was on other side of the MA 40 ...

MQ4 for other indi

This had 5 wins but 8 losses for me on demo yesterday (using the tdl and H4 filters).

Since this EA is only active for one hour in every 4, and the slope of the CCI only needs to be known at the end/start of each 4hrly candle, do the CCI readings need to be taken every 5 mins continuously? Also trades are triggered when the EA is ...

That's exciting news! Despite all its problems and trading limitations, V18 is doing really well on my demo account. It will really rock when it trades all currencies! Can't wait to test the new release .....

Hi Dietcoke, Breakthrough! The no-trading charts are not because of a logic problem, but because of memory/computer resource issues. I have 21 charts open on my MT4 demo, but Pippo works only the first 6 or so. I'm a bit slow in noticing that it's a ...

I found the hedging was lethal in v17.1 - it kept doubling and doubling the lot size as the price criss-crossed over the hedge band. I was trading 0.01, 0.02, etc lot sizes, yet hedge trades were being made for 5.2 lots! If you trade V17.1 live, be ...

I've not tested the time controls yet, but I'm glad you're putting Pippo through it's paces too.

Strange occurrence with drawing of the MM lines last night on AUDUSD. Pippo still knew where the lines should be - just not being drawn properly on MT4. Is this what you mean when you say "The line drawing is not correct", Lamarsky?

Has anyone else discovered any glitches, or has everyone given up on Pippo?
