{quote} Are you thinking at a limit order to benefit from a minor retracement or a stop order in case there is no retracement at all ? Regarding the first point, I made an improvement to the EA and am testing it currently. The delayed order would be triggered by a smaller Moving average and a configurable number of pips from it.
Yes, additional options based on yesterday's missed opportunities with EUR.
- one delayed pending order when price goes back to 33 (already in EA)
- another delayed pending order 10 pips below or above the signal price. If price stops moving in the direction of a signal - it will go back to 33, in case it continues - it will trigger another order. Let's try it out?

Hey there, I loved the simplicity of this system however I think we are pushing too much with the EA. I understand people want to take advantage of off hour trading or whatever reason you might find to use an EA. But reading everything from the very beginning I feel like any EA created for this system cannot beat the manual trading due to the traders discretion. Even Mickey don't want to abondon manual trading with this system. So as well as we can develop the EA I think it would also be good to develop a signal generating indicator which would...

Noted on opening platform today:
I did not leave MT4 running overnight. When I opened it this morning, it immediately took a trade on EurAud, even though ten minutes of the subject candle had already passed. In this case the entry was 12 pips in my favor. It could have also been the opposite.

This is just something to be aware of, if you are using EA. Knowing this, it might not be a bad idea to turn off "Autotrading" button at top of platform, if you're going to shut down, and reopen MT4.

started last friday. 10 pairs. using EA but some discretion with exits. running late euro session to london close.
would probably be better results letting them run. gotta work on the exits.

Nice results guys!!
If you find some nice manual exit strategies or position building that we could try to implement in the EA, don't hesitate to describe it and we will give it a try.

Attached is a new EA version 1.3 with some bugs fixes :

  1. fix for pip value calculation, the EA should work with more Symbols and brokers
  2. added a check to MaxOpenedTrades in "Trade now" button feature
  3. fix to keep the delayed entries signals in memory properly until the SL is tight enough to take the trade or if another signal appears

And a two new features:

  1. At the EA init, it will scan for a delayed entry in the past that is still valid. If it finds one, the delayed entry will be traded as per usual EA rules
  2. A new DelayedEntriesStrategy input parameter that you can set to : 33EMA or 25GWT. The 25GWT is a linear weighted moving average that will allow the EA to take the delayed entries more aggressively.
    And a new DelayedEntriesAtXPips input parameter where you can set a number of pips from the moving average where a delayed trade can be opened.
    If you want to keep using the original MickeyMar's strategy, you can set DelayedEntriesStrategy=33EMA and DelayedEntriesAtXPips=0, this means a touch to the 33EMA.

I did a quick test on pair (GU) from 2015.01.01 to 2017.10.01 (Max 2 trades: 0.1 lot for the 1st, 0.05 the 2nd)

With version 1.22, the result was a 2193.49 profit and 19.09% drawdown

Damiend,

Does the EA have a min lot size? I had been running it on a demo account (and doing well) on a 0.1 lot and I tried to put it on my real account and lower the lot and it didn't take trades (the demo did).

It's strictly a baseline demo. Settings are not mine - they are default.
