Hi Traders: I am looking for your inputs as to looking at the 28 charts for this week which direction would you trade each pair. The reason I ask is I am thinking of adding an option to The Manger to give you the choice of which direction you would only let a trade to be taken…
I like this idea, Gene. It gives the trader some flexibility to control long/short positions that the manager will take.

The trade manager never took any trades for me this week -- using v12, strat 5, and trading 24hrs. -- so I'm going to rebuild.

You need to post more info, such as, screen shot of The Manager at the time.

Too many red spreads. When the trade signal happens you only have a one hour window to take the trade and then it passes and you have to wait for the next signal.

That was a tough week for many EA's. Strat 6 is one week only on new 10k demo.

Everyone on vacation?

I have been thinking about adding a BUY and SELL zone as a filter to the Strategy.
It would take less trades but maybe better ones so you could just use a larger lot size as you would be taking fewer trades.

Any Thoughts On This or Ideas on this?????

Hi, I'm curious to see if this system actually makes money. If your system runs on MetaTrader, cTrader, or NinjaTrader you can run it live on https://www.toptrades.live for everyone to see, and you can allow other traders to copy your trades in real-time.

Put your adds on your own site!!!!

Everything here is free and traders using the software post their results here for everyone to see.

Don't post here.

That site will capture your real-time trading results so you can prove to everyone your system works. You just post screen shots which proves nothing.

I think it's a great idea. Would help stop trades that sell into support or buy into resistance, i.e. would help filter some exhausted moves

Why are you so upset. I'm simply offering to set you up with a free account to post your live trades to prove your system is a winner.

I don't need your "FREE ACCOUNT" to show me how my software works. I trade it every day so I know how it performs and how profitable it is. I am not trying to sell anything as it is "FREE" to everyone and they can make their own decision as to use it or not. Since it has such a large choice of ways to trade every trader will have different results, some will win and some will lose depending on their trading style and method they choose. If they want to post their findings here I am very happy with that and they can also post results using FF, they don't need a commercial site to do that for them. I am always open to ideas or suggestion that will make the software better and us all better traders, we all want to be in that top 5% of winning traders.
It would be nice if I could get moved back to the Trading Systems forum area where I was for years until a commercial group took my software and started selling it and FF decided to move me to this commercial section. If you start posting my software on other commercial sites it will make it even harder for me to get out of this commercial area where I don't want to be. I am on other trading forums where I am not in the commercial section as they have seen that the software is "FREE". As everyone can see everything I offer is "FREE" unless someone wants to buy me a cup of Java. I do not look for anything in return other than traders trying the software and then posting what they think. I have spent years and many hours getting to this point and am still in the process of learning and improving the software. Some will like it and some will hate it, but that's life and I don't pretend to have all the answers or pretend this is the Holy Grail. Its all free so they have nothing to lose by trying it. If it didn't work I would not use it to trade live as I presently am doing every day. I don't post my live account results as I don't think anyone else should do either. Demo account and live account trading can be as different as night and day so even posting demo account results can be very misleading. All a demo account proves is that the software is trading as designed and has no bugs, but the results can be very misleading as I have seen trading Demo and Live side by side from the same Broker with the same setups.

Everyone have a great week.
All comments are always welcome.
Just keep the "COMMERCIAL" post off here.

It only lets you enter trades when in a BUY or SELL zone but has built in exits so it doesn't have to make it all the way to the opposite zone to close the trade. It can take days or even a week or two before its gets into a trade as zones are based on daily PA so they are farther apart than the H1 chart it is trading. But once in a trade you may be in it for several weeks. But along the way it will do add on trades so even though the original trade may last several weeks there are more trades on the same pair added along the way which can add to the profit quite a bit and can result in a very nice trade and profit. Will see how it goes this week as it will take a while as the trades may take longer to get into.

Sound good to me, Gene! Thanks for the explanation.
