Hi Yohan-ip

Thanks for posting the details, do you alway use profit protect 550 for all pairs ? Also for timeToStart should this be 0 ?
I am forward testing now.

Thanks
Hi leeb,
No, not allways. Sometimes i would set The ProtectProfit variable to arround 750+, and for today, i would like to set the ProtectProfit variable to 300, i really don't recommend TimeToStartTrade set to 0, because this will cause your EA to trade the whole day, as you all kknow, there is a time when the market going to 'corrections'..but feel free to experiment

While testing this EA... I get a continuous report pop up. How can I cease these pop ups?
Hi whten, thank you for trying the EA, it has a lot of meaning for me
your pop-ups is the one called confirmations window, you should disable the 'Manual Confirmation' setting on the 'Expert Properties' at the 'Common' Tab

Hey My friend..thanks for the ea i'm testing it now...I have a couple of questions

1. How do I control the lot size it trades...one time it said .40 and now it says .50...Is there a way to trade .1?

2. How do you possible get away with a SL of 45 with the GBPJPY and 25 SL for the EURJPN? There is no way you can get 155 pips with SL that low on those pairs...I have set it to 125p SL and still got stopped out fast on the GBPJPY because it swings so fast and far...

3. What is method 1 and method 2?

4. Do you have to use a traling stop on this or set it to 0?

5. Is there a way to edit this EA some?

Thanks Man

helo Man
i would like to introduce Method-1 and Method-2,
Method-1 is a very agresif history tracker, it will try to trade as manny as possible, searching for the possibilities that the currency pair will try to make a new high or a new low, based on the history charts, the fibo-fan and the fibo-monthly

Method-2 is a very conservative method to determine that the current market quotation is in the pairs favour, when it detects the market reactions, it will open a possitions based on what it thinks as a good pos. The fight between the BULL and the BEAR and the volume as the referee

In time.. you should all be able to edit the EA, for the time being, please understand that i couldn't give the mql source (yet..)

and, oh.. i do recommend trailing stops..
***

you could allways download the newest EA from ...
i'm affraid i couldn't do it on the FF, anybody knows how to edit a previousy attached file?

have a great trading days dear friend..i thank you for all interests

Since I loaded the EA yesterday on 08/20/07 PM I have had 65 trades with a profit of 1608.14 on .4 lots or around 400 pips. This is awesome. I followed your set-up completely. I used EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/CHF, AUD/USD, NZD/USD, USD/JPY, EUR/JPY. I stayed away from GBP/JPY for now. I haven't analyzed so far which pair is best. I would love to use this on my live account using microminis. What fun to watch the pips stack up. Thank you. Does this work when the trading platform is turned off or just when it is up?

so glad to see someone having such a lot optimized results..
Expert Advisor could only works only if you turn on your computer, if you turn it off, the EA wont work, since it's not executing on your broker server, but on your personal computer..

thanks for posting, hope to hear more..

The equity of this account looks not very good. I would not put real money for this EA. Very big drawdowns... At one point it could destroy all deposit.

Remember that the EA is under test; the input variables being modified per time, seeking to achive the best setup. You'll do well to test it and post your findings also. I had a better result with the variables I used today. Will post analysis later.

Cheers!!

In addtion I would deduct 2 pips on every trade on real account for slippage and delays in order execution... And advantages of multiple trades will immidiately become disadvantages. I experiensed such problems with experts that were successful on demo account and failed on real account.

I did some analysis of the result of today's trade (20th Aug) by currency pair. The previous days' from start also... refering to the demo account yohanip is running
The result might be of interest to someone. Please find attachment.

I hope to edit the SL and TP of the pairs tomorrow and see how it performs.

Thanks Yohanip. You're a great man!

txsundevil,
GBP/JPY is the one making the better part of the money as you will see from the attached. Twill be great to test a different TP and SL as you've said.

Cheers!

NB: the TotalEA 11days Stat analysis.tpl file is actually an Excel file. Please replace the tpl extention with xls

Hi, thank you for posting your results for the EA, yes indeed the EA could make your account grows faster, but please do consider, that the EA is a very agresif EA, it will trade as many posibilities lies on the chart as it sees one, manny diversifications could bring your profit and also your loss..

the EA trade at specific time, and for these past two days, it's best to trade at European Open, some of you i know, have applied the EA on a live account and profiting 1100+ pips for these two days, but please don't be too happy, you should allways took a good care of your profits..and also your emotions..the pips is not allways your main source of profits, by using the rebates, you should generate hundreds of pips also a two way attack..

Have a nice trade every body

Thank you for sharing such interest to the EA..

Hai there
it's been a great weeks..the EA start to develops, it's drawdown, it's ability to attract curiosity..

One could never learn to much..Knowledge is the power, knowledge is the key, well it's the key to almost everything..

Btw, i've been runing forward test on the EA, and it gives significant account balance increase and decrease, but the balance was still on it's profit.

Back then, i really have not relied on backtesting, since i figure it out as
non-dependable, but then.. a lot of request come along, and i need to
release the version that should be able to do backtests, so here it is my dear
friends..

Please allow me to introduce the new version of the EA, it should be
able to do backtesting, it should allow the trader to choose lot ammount,
and also a starting time of trading.

I'm allways gratefull and thankfull to all of you who put the time to read the
thread and or then testing the EA to the demo account, it really gives me a
good reason to develop something to achieve something..

Best regards, and best wishes to all of you.
Yohan.

Hai there
thank you for the interest, no it doesn't matter the EA performance or whatsoever, whats matter the most is your style..

would you let the EA totally control the account, or would you add some of your knowledge and emotions to control the EA decission..

That's why i attach some of the scripts that would help you to do the manual touch of the EA actions..

that's a diffrent course of automated trading and a semi-automated trading..

wish you the best Abouelzelouf

Hello,

I have been testing your EA on demo, started today and Just made 10% growth!

Unbelievable, keep up the good work!




One more question, How do you know which version of EA you have, I do not think I have the latest.

It is very believeble on demo account and very frustrating on real account... Just think a little bit, you have 3000 pips and ~1000 transactions. Sooo, you have about 3 pip/transaction. Now add delays and slippage on real account that will eat your extra pips on every trade... For such an aggressive strategy demo testing is NOTHING. If you made 3000 with ~100 transactions I would say "wow" because broker can't do anything to prevent your profit.

Now that's what i called analysis, a good analysis before you go through a live account, something that all of you shold knows about..
out of 1000+ transactions and it generates 3000pips, yes it's true, a live account would not this smooth

Terranin, we would be much appreciated if you would like to forward test or backtest the EA please?
it's not that 1000+ transaction made the 3000pips, if you do run trades today using the EA, it would be arround +20 transactions for 600pips profit..

i really don't understand, why does brokers want to stop the profit?doesn't it true that all of forex trader, do trade using BROKER? if the broker tried to stop the profit, it will loss it's customer, and the profit will stop..
does the statement:
we will not take commisions, we profits from the trade spread means anything? just taking from the spread, and the broker had arround 100 customer who made arround 10 transactions would lead to
100person*10 transaction*2pips spread = 2000pips/ day

wouldn't it describe what brokerage goes?

a lot of changes have been made to the EA, but not the system..only the inputs of TP, SL, Trailing, ProtectProfit, TimeToStartTrade, and Lot. The EA have been using the consistent method for the last 3 weeks, you should allways be able to see the EA version at the top corner at the summary now..

The EA is for FREE..non price will be applied to the EA.
