Girlflyer,

Does your EA use any indocators other than the crossing of the EMAs? Maybe one way to get on the right side of the trend is to check RSI and CCI, I know that's not Sidus method, but its better to be going with the trend for the TF....
Not at this time, may look into some additional indicators later.

Valerie,

I fixed the problem and updated the original file that I recently posted. Just download it again and it should work fine now... The problem was I was using an integer value instead of a double value for the variable. Didn't catch it until now... guess I was tired when I punched that in last night.

Thanks for catching it.

Marci

P.S. PM me sometime if you would like to chat privately about the market or anything else....
Yup, this was what i also had in mind thanks again. I'll test it now.

Attached in the text file is the results of my tests for last week. Pip wise, it turned out to be a positive week, but the horrid ranging market killed us on in the EUR/JPY and the USD/CAD, however those were offset by the huge gains in GBP/USD and USD/CHF.

Best peformance went to the USD/CHF.
Worst went to the USD/CAD.

I am encouraged though that in backtesting FLYER! for this last week that it performed very similar to the actual live results. With that in mind, I have further confidence as we go forwards, that the results from the EA will be more in line with the statistics modelled in the back tests. Unfortunately this was a volatile week for many pairs with NFP and ECB interest rates, etc. keeping the price action in the early part of the week restricted followed by large erratic movements at the end of the week. Tough time to be trading using any method. Given the difficulty of this week and the overall net positive performance, I look forward to the results as we go forwards further.

For those of you still testing, thank you for your help and input. I will continue to update as things go along.

Happy Trading to All!

here is an all-in-one indicator and template

green arrow: buy
red arrow: sell
yellow X: false start, dinna cross with in 5 bars

you should prolly put in your order 1 bar after the signal, but if you feel lucky ...

vars:
extern int xFastEMA = 18; // Fast EMA for Trend
extern int xSlowEMA = 28; // Slow EMA for Trend
extern int xFastWMA = 5; // Fast WMA for Cross
extern int xSlowWMA = 8; // Slow WMA for Cross
extern int xPoints = 1; // points to offset EMA/WMA Cross
extern int xXBars = 5; // Cross has to happen with in this number of Bars

no problem i knew you were planning on making one but i figured you were really busy with the EA. making those EAs are like 10x harder for me then making indicators.

hi GirlFlyer!

I just want to know, does Flyer! generate false signals in M30, I know that this was Sidus method and works best at 1H time frames. What do you think, would 1H be also nice to use or not? if yes, could I use 1H with Flyer! to generate signals?

You're welcome to try it, just change "TimePeriod" to 60. However, I was not able to achieve better results on the 1Hr timeframe and the 30M with backtesting. But see if it does any better live.... maybe?

First trade just closed:

Opened on October 10 at 02:17 gmt+1, shorting 1.7 lots, GBP/JPY at 222.34; SL 222.79; TP 0.

Closed October 10 at 16:39 for profit of $525.31 at a price 221.97. EA draws nice little dashed line between open and closing prices.

Version used was straight out of the box, no modifications, just locked and loaded. Second trade on Eur/Jpy is in profit.

Trading on 5 minute charts.

"Version used was straight out of the box, no modifications, just locked and loaded."

Thanks armchang for the vote of confidence. We all know I'm an aggressive, Type A kinda guy who can hardly spell "risk averse". And we all know that everything I touch prospers. But to trade "live" with an untested EA, an EA the author wants tested, "straight out of the box, no modifications" would be a bit much, even for me.

So I'm testing the EA as GirlFlyer asked traders to do..... testing it on a demo platform with SBFX's MT4, running two pairs on 5 minute charts. I chose those two pairs because they blew up while testing Firebird EAs...nothing mystical and for no other reason.

What other details do you need?

Hey Valerie,

You know I always respect your 2 pips. That's my first "demo" trade so it's a wee bit early to reach conclusions. Particularly so when it seems the number of unsuccessful FLYER! test traders approximates the successful ones. That's an issue that needs resolution.

Also weird seeing TP as "00.00"!!
