{quote} @rodolkolm: based on bmcgowra (see Posts 114 - 119) does your newest Version cover this? Backtest loofs perfect!!! Please let us know. Thanks, renko
{quote} Thanks for sharing but somehow I cannot get it to take orders. Does it start only when certain conditions are met? I already checked import dll. Placed the ffcal file in the indicator folder. I managed to get xjhamil's version to work quite easily.
{quote} this thing happen in strategie tester too !! strange

The broker has rules. SL can not be less than X TK can not be less than X etc ... that influences the opening of orders.
Checks if you are giving logbook error.
I tried another EA and YES it also happens on the activtrade broker, they put a SL so that I can not see it without reducing to see well above or below the current price
Hi All, Thanks for EA.
My understanding about xBest 2.2, it open the order only one direction (buy or sell) then using martingale.
After that, the opposite order will be open when reaching the level set in variable "hedge" for recovery. is that correct?
However, in xBest 3.2 that I have just done the backtest for USDJPY from 1/11/2017-13/02/2018 using hedging, it open both direction.
Don't know how the hedging concept is. May you explain the concept of full hedge for this version?
Attached is the result I did the backtest of xBest 3.2.
Greetings to all! I just subscribed to this thread a week ago, and have seen some interesting comments/ideas shared by many of you.
I downloaded the Pipbeast 1.9 EA from Post #28 (by AndrewBa-), and decided to put it on a Demo trading account, running on 28 pairs with $100K starting capital, I started the test at 2am GMT on 15 Feb, and now it's 34 hours later, the account has a 67% profit (after deducting floating drawdown), which is quite an impressive feat!
I will let it run for another week or two, to find out has the best performance, will share the results and settings in this thread, in due time.
For those respected members here, to help the new readers, can someone list down the feature/logic differences between these EAs?
1. Pipbeast 1.9
2. TrioDancer 4.4.5
3. xBest 3.2
Thank you all who contributed, we are all here for the same reason, let's help one another to achieve greater financial growth!

Version xBest 3.2 uses two engines. One only for purchase and another only for sale. These engines exchange information among themselves for shield and attack in the price war.
I am just back test with v3.2 and I wanted to check the Equity caution. set "true", total% Risk to EquityCaution 10.0, but the account blow up.
Did I make a mistake?

Thanks Rodolfolm. As your explanation that 2 engines exchanges information for shield and attack, does it mean I don't need to set the Hedge level?

Yes! the EquityCaution parameter is the trigger for exchanging information for Shield and Attack
if an engine enters the equitycaution it informs the other engine the size of the last batch and thus the other engine operates the reverse with the amount of lots of the first acting in favor of the trend. and vise versa.
If both motors go into equitycaution they cancel and re-operate.
I'm going to implement a trailing stop to get bigger gains. but may increase the size of the takeprofit for this already in this release.
Wow, your account still live in backtest for 8 years.
I tested version 2.2 in backtest for USDJPY from 2016/2018 with hedge and no hedge, my $5000 blow up after 7 or 8 months.
Still looking the result in which situation that hedge cannot save the account.
