Has anyone been able to test Phoenix on Tick Data available from Gain (http://ratedata.gaincapital.com/) for 99% quality modelling? If so I would be interested to know results and settings used, e.g., for GBPUSD.

Does anyone know how to convert Tick Data to MT format? The instructions in the modelling description don't make any sense. Any help appreciated.

I would like to know if it would be possible to use some of the Phoenix code for another EA?

I'm mainly interested in the multiple Indicator bit.

My reason for this is that I want to try and write a EA that tests Indicators and I could select the ones that are most effective.

Also being a total noob at MT4 its easier to use existing code than to start from srcatch.

I will of course add all the code on the forum once it is in a working state hopefully arround early Feb (I'm going away for most of Dec).

I dont see an introduction section so...

Hi everyone,
I joined a while ago and have been reading allot of good info.
Youve got a great forum here and I hope to add my little bit and hopefully succsess stories.

Just tried Phoenix 5.6.6 on EURUSD M15 with default settings (Neumex demo account).
After a while, tons of error "invalid stoploss for OrderModify" appear.
What am I doing wrong?

As far as I know, you can copy/paste any open source code you like for personal use. You won't have any distribution rights to that code unless specifically granted by the author of the code. Hendrick is the copyright owner in this case.

There were several bugs with all of the "Mode 3" versions. We have eliminated several but a few remain. This one appears to be an "innocent" error, not affecting trading but increasing needless chatter with the broker. I will try to fix it this week while reviewing live data.

Are you getting several errors in sequence the first time the error is logged? Mode 1 should have error-free order execution.

For only 1 trade, switch to Mode1.
To make the lot size 0.1 lots, please set Lots=0.1 and MM=false.

A new version 5.7.0 is available for all people wanting to use Mode3. forex-tsd.com/phoenix/

daraknor, hi there, I have been running mode 3 in test mode, on version 5_6_02, for a 6 weeks now. Up until a few days ago, with no problems. Then I got a trade placed with the comment of Sidus on it, instead of the typical mode 3 first trade comment. It was a larger single trade. Not sure what that was all about. Then today when I put 5_6_07 on, it opened up 3 trades and then closed #1 &3 with a 7pt loss, and let #2 run. Is this a normal thing? I have had pretty good success with version 5_6_02 up until now. Is there any laymans terms as to what is going on, and what the changes in the latest release have done? Is 5_6_07 stable for live in mode 3?
Thanks, and sorry for the long post. probably should have sent it in a pm.

I don't know what the comment Sidus means, and I haven't seen it in the code at all. The most current version 5.7.0 seems to be stable for mode 3 for hundreds of users. There are major changes in mode3 from 5.6.7 to 5.7.0. Most notably, it works as intended! With such a large difference I needed to adjust some settings, and there are several discussions about what is going. Upgrading from 5.6.7 to 5.7.0 can be done without closing trades.

The upgrade is available at forex-tsd.com/phoenix/ in the development thread. Most of the communication and postings over Phoenix happen on that forum.

I don't mind long posts, I'm somewhat addicted to them myself.

Daraknor, You have done lots of hard work on Phoenix. How do you feel about Phoenix chances in another strong move in the market?

Thanks,

Phoenix has had both loosing and winning streaks with short term large movements in the market. Generally speaking, a counter trend system should be trend aware and avoid trying to swim up a waterfall. Phoenix is not yet trend aware, but now that 5.7.0 is "Phoenix - Stable" in all modes, then the next phase of development will begin.

I plan to make it "trend aware" in version 6. Any and all recommendations on indicators to recognize trends are appreciated (painting the past after a few days is okay if the indicator knows when to quit real time).

USDCHF has custom settings:
Mode3_TakeProfit = 130;
Mode3_StopLoss = 80;
So yes, that is correct for the currency.

Maybe an indicator would recognize trending markets by looking the previous daily ranges. If the previous days are trending then stay out until market quiets down (small bodies). Just a thought I had...
