"Nihilist HolyGrail" EA

hi guys, I am trying to make an EA based on Nihilist HolyGrail system. i have seek his approval to start a new thread to develop an EA based on his Holygrail system.
The entry and exit rules can be found in his system in this link.
http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...28#post7593428

I will not release the source code to the EA. The EA is provided as-is.

I am sharing the EA i made which has shown good result over the past week but is not reliable yet as a one or two changes were made here and there.

To use the EA, first download the indicators from the link above.

The EA has the following parameters
FixedStopLoss - Set stop loss on each new trade. the EA has an inbuilt +4 pips to all stoploss set so if your max stop loss u want is 30, u have to set it at 26. the stoploss does not include the spread. so if you set it at 30pips, the max stoploss it can go is 30pips+4pips+spread.
FixedTakeProfit - Set TP on each new trade
MinProfit - Min Profit require to start taking profits determined by the EA
Lot Size - Determine Lot size for each trade
UseKiJunDirection - set whether to include KiJunDirection as part of the rules. i made this rule was because it seems to prevent me from taking a lot of trades so i set it to optional to see whether there will be a difference. The trade explorer uses false
MainTimeFrame - Set the timeframe the EA will operate (in minutes) for LTF ADX
MainTFADX - Set min number of Red/Lime bars in previous candle to enter a trade
Time Start/Time End - Set time the EA will take entry

The comments at the side shows how its interpreting from the indicators.


EA Entry Rules for sell
HolyGrail: Down. It will show down when the previous and current candle is hot pink or red
LTFADX=-ADXCounter. ADXCounter counts the number of LTF avaible from current timeframe
ADXRed >= MainTFADX ADXRed and ADXLime counts the number of red box in the current timeframe based on previous candle
ADXLime = 0
KijunSen: Down if useKiJunDirection is true or ignored if false
Candle: Down detects when the candle close is below the Kijunsen line
Signal will show Down when all the above are true

The opposite is true for buy.


KiJunSenSL finds the last flat area and set that as SL for both buy and sell
Fractal buySL and SellSL finds the last fractals to act as swing high and low
BuySL/SellSL shows which SL its using if conditions are fulfiled in this order KijunSen -> Fractal -> Max SL SL used will be below Max SL, it will cycle from KijunSen to fractal if Max SL is lower then the KijunSen SL for example

Any suggestions to improve the system or bug found or any trades that should or should not be taken will be appreciated.
recommendation for SL and TP for each currency used and timeframe are also welcomed.

Possible things to add in future:
Time filter for entry
Check support/resistance level close by, etc
Min StopLoss

Update V1.1
Added Time filter
Added option for Min number of ADX bars to be red in previous candle of current timeframe

Update V1.2
Bugfix for condition "use KijunSen" fixed if set false it still works as true for the buy

Hi Leastchaos,
Maybe a stupid question but once i set the time parameter in the EA in my case 60min it won´t affect the EA´s operation if i then switch between time frames, I only ask this as each time i switch the EA then says searching for tick data.
So far promising results on the 60min although i only have it on three charts at the moment.

ah i forgot to mention the timeframe is only for the LTFADX if you set 60min it will only look for M30 M15 M5 M1 if you set 240min it will look for H1,M30,M15,M5,M1
the rest of the parameters depends on the timeframe the chart is loaded on

Congratulation leastchaos for your new thread, i never use any EA before, but want to test it. if i find any modification needed then i will inform you.
many many thanks.

For the "Nihilist HolyGrail" EA, do we use all indicators or the Holy Grail, ADX and Kijun indicators are good enough? I have been trying to use the EA and even in favourable conditions it is not opening a trade.

i have mine loaded on h1 charts and it is taking trades

will change to H4, ootb h1 is proving inconsistent so far

Which indicators are you using?

Appreciate your work but if I am not wrong, Nihilisht has already made EA based on HG??

Imifx, can you share it?

Is the EA working on your H4 Charts? Is it opening real trades? Please let me know which indicators are you using?

thank you. your input will be greatly appreciated.


as long you have all the indicators in the zip file it will be ok.
the EA only takes trade following the rules exactly, ie all lower timeframe ADX must be all Red to take a short trade.
of course there might be bugs sometimes which i might have missed out which you can highlight if a trade should be taken according to the rules stated in the holygrail system post.

Here is the another EA made by someone else using Nihilisht HG

P.S. It was my Confusion that Nihilist bro has made this EA, I am really sorry for confusion.

Thanks, i will try both Eas

added time filter option based on server time for entry and option for min number of ADX bars to be red.
would appreciate if you guys can post your settings if you have postive result for each currency.
To disable the use of LTF ADX you can just set Main TF to 1 and the EA will just be using based on the timeframe it is loaded on

I have EURCHF on a H4 chart. The ADXRED is calculated as 5 but you can see on the dashboard that RED is only 3. Is this a bug?

ADXRed is the previous candle number of red box in the loaded chart timeframe. your template does not seems to show the other 4 ADX lines. the ADX should be all red there.

Thanks a lot for this EA. Works perfectly for me and follows the Holy Grail Rules.

I have one request: I am managing my orders by Magic Numbers. Is it possible to put a MagicNumber option in the EA. I know you have a MagicStart option, but it increments the number every time a order is opened.

the magicnumber is just magicstart+1.

Thanks
