I see there's one major question in the heart of everyone who wants to use lite3 on real account; 'does it have expiry date'? Perhaps it's the same reason some are requesting for the source code. Since Fees has stated clearly the he is'nt given out the source code, can he be so kind to tell us whether there's any expiry date on Lite 3? Thanks in advance!
Hey. there is no time limit for LITE_3

OK, here's my version of Pawel's EA: ULTRON_PDV_1. Modifications: Parameterised all hard-coded values to allow further customisation/optimisation. Amended to work with other currency pairs and timeframes (not just GBPUSD H1). Corrected the time filter. Corrected SL and TP settings to take spread into account. Changed order submission to comply with ECN broker rules. Converted all SL/TP/Slippage to pips and catered for all price feeds. Added money management option as well as fixed lots. Added a trailing stop function. Added news filter (requires...
thank you paulDV,..I WILL TEST

@PaulDv, thankyou and very good job.

It is flexible and works very well.

Points I have noted. Managing Trailing Stop very well.

@Feex has done good job on Ulite_3.

I am posting 2 images of the same trade, opened on both EAs, @feex "ulite_3" trailing stop gives $54 and "ultron_pdv" gives $100

We all know, we got this trade from March 7th.

Thank you Paul,much appreciated.
Have you tested settings with M15 or is it better to stick with H1 and are there any pairs you avoid?

Ah, no I haven't taken the prospect of no TP into account - I'll make that change asap and post a new version.

No, I haven't had the time yet. I've been concentrating on getting the EA working as per Pawel's initial implementation, but I'd be happy to see others' results on this.

Hi PaulDV,

Thank you for the modified EA providing options!

may i ask :

Is FFCAL.mq4 working as internal function to EA ? Becuase when i try as standalone, it doesn't seem to show anything.

How do you determine the trend in EA ? Is it based on current 1H candle or closed, above/under 50 MA ? I could see the trend Bullish, Bearish or No trend ?
I know the whole logic is for 1H GBPUSD.

Can trend information be used for other time frames, pairs ?

EA with the current condition is working well only from August 2018 till date.

Before that, It is just ok. There are not many great trades. 2016 & 2017 not many trades to talk about.

We have to find another setting, to fit that period.

Current market trend, Trump & other major news which is influencing current market conditions, is what we want to focus our trading on. Current movement of market, current ATR is not same as previous year. Per day we are seeing movements of many pips compared to previous few years - Experienced traders please comment.

I think current EA based on current Optimized settings for past 2-3 months is good to trade for next 2-3 months. Then we re-optimize it and see.

There is no HolyGrail Solution in Trading, it is about probabilities. If we have high probability, then we have a edge and winner.

The default hours for my version of the EA are 07-19 GMT, so with the broker offset of GMT+2 plus DST, you will need to set the time filter to 10-22.

I'm with IC Markets as well, and my times are set to 10-22.

Hi,

FFCal isn't required if you have NewsFilter set to false.

If you want to turn the news filter on, you need to place FFCal.mq4 in the Indicators folder in MT4. It should all then work as intended, however, it does rely on the news calendar being available from ForexFactory, and sometimes that screws up and you can get false positives (i.e. it thinks it's news time all the time!).

Regarding the trend, this needs to be improved, but currently it's simply looking at the MAs and using the entry logic to determine whether it should be looking for longs or shorts. As I say, this needs to be improved, and I'll work on it for the next version.

^ This.

Does anybody have the means to see this over 3 or 4 years of Tick data? Even open candle only test may help show a rough idea of its ability. I ask because I think we have determined this was a good system in 2018. We can modify and modify, but nothing done will be bad for any 2018 backtest.

not trying to be cynical, just honestly curious to see what the original and optimized versions look like in the long haul.

I did tell you, 2016 & 2017 is not that good to talk about. This is based on Moving Averages entry. So criteria would be swings which determine the Moving Averages.

So each year and period would have slightly different mediums. If you still insist, will post for Ultron_PDV results from 2016
