DislikedYes, I think the underlying strategy is reliable....
Maybe we will just have to accept the occasional losing trade, after all, there is no such thing as a "perfect" strategy, if there was we would all be millionaires!Ignored
DislikedYeah even the big boys have the odd loser!
I think learning to accept losers is a must for all traders! I know I've certainly had a lot of opportunities to practise over the last nine months!Ignored
DislikedHi Michael
I am sorry for your missed trades, I am working on retrying orders, but I must point out that I have only tested the EA on 2 brokers, Alpari and forex.com, and to be honest there is no way that I can test it on every broker in the world!
If you look at the code you will see that we have a slippage of 5 currently which should be enough for any broker.
What I can say about brokers is, no I can't say that in public!
If your spread is greater than 2 pips you will get more losses than someone on less than 2 pips!
If you have...Ignored
DislikedHi Geoff, just a quick note on ECN brokers:
The example of min requirement of USd 20,000 and 3 lots is only refering to Alpari Pro.
There are many other brokers offering ECN through Mt4 these days,...Ignored

DislikedI think, at last we have a simple but a very good EA.
I have put this in my live account and it made 30$ on 200$ account in 2 days.... Really awesome.
If this continuous, I can double my money every 15 days or so...in the worst case, 1 month...
Which is too too good to be true.... Hats off to Geoff.
Can you please add an option to change the trade comment, so that Brokers wont play with this EA :-)
Thanks again.....

DislikedGeoff,
I've been using this for a week now. Let me add my thanks to the rest of these. I can't begin to say how pleased I am. A dream come true. And you have been excellent thru it all. We all appreciate that as well.Ignored
DislikedCan someone please comment on what I am doing wrong ? Why am I getting different results ?
The system time is GMT. My broker is Alpari UK. In the EA settings, I have the GMToffset set to 0 and Start_time to 1 (these are the default values).
What should I change ?Ignored
DislikedThis really good news, we could all benefit from ECN accounts!
From the little I have heard about placing orders through ECN I believe you will have the best chance of it working if you have hide_targets set to true.
I think, though I am certainly not sure about this, that you send an order without TP and SL initially then add them later, which is effectively the way our EA works when targets are hidden.
Good luck!Ignored
