To those testing various EA's , I know of deathkult ,merlin and majamivice.
There is bad news . I found a serious bug. Terrible one. It affects performance badly.
copy this BuyCashUpl+=
Open the bot you testing in meta editor then press ctrl + F . A pop window comes paste the above
Then press FindNext until the following screen shot is shown

You see the red circle. Mine has two forward slashes. You need to add those.
What this does is block out the code. Once you have made changes save the file or compile.
This code has been causing the bot to count the profit or loss on buy orders open twice.
So say all buy orders are in loss 11 USd. The bot will be reading it as 22.
This was causing it to hit stop loss way before the real loss was registering.

Can you imagine that with such a serious error there was still some good performance.

More cleaning up done.
Talk about polishing up . Its shinning real good.
The benefit to me is I have to look at a chart and see where the high probability setups are.
this fine tuning more and more as I look at chart upon chart.
it then gets cemented in my brain as I have to then code the setup

Dude i think you lost the plot by having so many trade setup
Dude / Dudette,
Forex might be simple but the bankers are trying to sucker the retailer. They have many ways of suckering in the retailer.
So we have to have many ways of avoiding the fake outs.

Here is v3. Its a big file because there many setups

A long answer is I have been trying to develop a successful EA. This thread I opened to journal the experience.
It has been a long journey. But worth it. Many a tie=me I nearly gave up. Nothing like seeing an EA doing well for a couple of weeks and then go bust.
That was sorted out by figured out by getting the high probable setup. The next hurdle was the sending of trades . This has been a tough one.
But this EA swypa is hope fully cream de le cream. we need to forward test

The EA trades on one hour but the setups are based on higher time frames. Try trading Low volatility pairs.
That is exclude these GBP pairs and EurCad Eur Aud EurNzd

With Pip Swypa on the tester, I'm getting a "failed to delete trend line" error. Am I missing an indy or something, or just doing something stupid?
