I think someone in this thread did try that. It worked a little, as with this system you need to tailor to yourself and test.

Direct EAs do not work, you need some common sense in taking the trade to make it work like dimdel does. Just opening every candle without any filters will not work in the long run.

Hey dimdel, since you are trading Gold, which is the only one that is working for me, daily chart. Did you have any good ones in the last week or so? It seems somewhat dead to me, so I am wondering if it's me or the pair

Real account, wishing all the good luck dimdel!

Well yes, he gave gold in the trade explorer. The strategy on it's own is not working, you need something more, which could be seen in the explorer. Now he has taken the gold away. So yeah, complaints are to be expected.

It's telling you you are 0.1% short of a nice number

It will not work because it does not even work in backtesting. If you make an EA that *blindly* executes the basic strategy, it will not be profitable. Now if you add some basing manual trading into the mix, then it can be profitable, I am not ...

Well you are both right. The base system executed *blindly* (mechanically) will not work in the long run. Used as a main idea for your personal trading it works for many people.

Catching up after a few pages... Dimdel, you seem to have moved to 1:1 RRR. Is that only on some pairs, or is it just easier on the nerves or does it get better profits, or is it just fo "feels"? You used to do 2:1.

Most of those pointed to candles do not get their high/low broken, so there is no loss there.

On both your screenshots there is an entry in oversold/overbought stoch that would not hit TP.

Not much time due to my programming job, but I can help.

Currently naked Gold D1. Previously I tested H4 and D1 for GPBJPY and EURUSD without much profit (except for occasional bursts which got eaten away afterwards).

You are not alone, I am just unable to make the method work for me successfully. Currently trying the Gold D1, since that seems to work even mechanically as an EA.

By the look of the chart it seems that the candles themselves are computed from MA(8), so it's a variant of heiken-ashi I guess.

No you did not, I asked about the red blue areas, because zigzag I recognized.

Interesting indicator, what is that? I see a zigzag there, which I am using, but it only looks perfect in retrospect, not so much in live trading

The system does not work for me in older years either, only the last year/year and a half. Which is understandable for such a simple automated system.

I got angry with me, since I cannot make it work and tested GBPJPY. It works! Daily first red/green, all 2:1 only. What works better is to trade every candle! But do *not* delete your positions ever! Let them stay there, they will be traded when the ...

Attempts at an EA have already come and gone multiple times. I have also created one. It never worked. The system is mechanical in the sense of when and where to expect to trade, but the actual parameters are dependent on your trading style and ...
