Count me in stratman. I've been meaning to sign up with Dukascopy for a while - and after Friday's debacle with Oanda, where their servers went down for a good hour and a half, my mind has been made up. Now to go and get al of this documentation filled out and stamped and posted!
Also, I know you've been very busy programming for the Dukas platform, but I wonder if there's any chance you could start posting your daily outlook to the trading room on the pipware forum once more? I think it really helped the newer traders, and it was also very useful to confirm that I was seeing the same things as you.
As for your concerns over an EA - while it's possible that a very large number of traders would change its efficacy, it's also possible that there might be a synergistic effect, whereby the market gets pushed in the correct direction due to increased buying/selling pressure by those using the EA. Especially if the entries are at key pullback points, a strong burst in the direction of the trend would signal to others that the trend is continuing and to hop on for the ride. Just a thought.

DislikedHi Bart,
the IA number is 1829 and I use my name Rob ie Rob Lorimer. This link to dukas has the IA as part of the URL: www.dukascopy.com/ibentry.php?ibref=1829
One of the things I'm concerned about is how many people will use my EA ... like if I have too many, it may become ineffective? Will I have to limit how many people I am agent for? etcIgnored
