DislikedI'm trying to use your version rfking, but it seems to get stuck on the message "Optimizing counter for 23:00". On my chart there is a gap which starts at 23:00 on Friday, until 00:00 for the market open on Monday.
Am I doing something wrong? Apologies if this has already been addressed earlier.Ignored

DislikedWhen the EA first optimizes itself, it waits for the next tick after the optimization to figure out what sort of trading system to use.Ignored
DislikedSign up links: http://ronaldraygunforex.com/Webinar.html
I am using DimDim as the webinar host thingy. It's all browser-based and my initial testing with it went more or less smoothly.
I would appreciate it if you could just sign up for one of the two webinars. I only have 20 slots for each session. If there is a demand, I'll do more webinars time-permitting.Ignored

but if i installed hilo trader the EA regolar started ???Ignored
DislikedOK, here's a pretty good set of forward test results for Ron's EA. Metatrader report attached.
1) Period covered: 7/21/2010 - 8/4/2010 (2 weeks)
2) Broker: IBFX demo mini account 5 digits
3) Currency pair: EURUSD only
4) Time frame: M1
5) Settings: default except ECNBroker=true, BarsToOptimize=50000
6) Fixed lot size 0.01
7) Computer used: crappy old Dell Dimension 2400 (Celeron 2.4 GHz, 512 MB RAM, IDE HD) It's an old unused computer sitting around the house.
There were 559 trades total so it's a good statistical sample. The win rate was 50.63%...Ignored
DislikedInteresting results. One thing I noticed is that a lot of your trades are taken on the same bar. My understanding of the EA is that if max trades is set at 10 for instance it will only take one trade per bar - so perhaps something is wrong with your set up.

DislikedThat's correct. I told Ron about this already. I haven't done anything that could cause it.
*later*
Hey Ron I looked at the code that limits new orders to 1 per bar. I believe there's a potential problem if you're running with ECNBroker=true. It looks like the statement "TradesThisBar++;" isn't being executed because OrderModify is always returning a 0 when it's successful.
I don't know if anyone else here is running ECNBroker=true or not; maybe it's an IBFX problem.Ignored
