Weekly Status and performance of EA's

I have seen this on 1 or 2 other forums, and wondering if there is any calling for that here. Basically it is just a thread that discusses the weekly performance of EAs and Market conditions

Example..

(not real conditions, and I am not recommending any EA)

Looks like This week USDCHF is stuck in a ranging market, could be good conditions for a range EA like Firebird, or Goblin ( I think Goblin is a range EA)

This week EURUSD seems to be in an upward trend, could be a good time for Trending EAs like Flyer, or Silvertrend (Again I am not recommending any EAs, these are just examples)

It would not be a thread to discuss the individual workings of each EA, that would be discussed in each EA's thread. This would be just an overall Discussion of what to use, when and why. We could then get into how to spot these conditions, and moke the most of them!



So..... Anybody interested???

Hi Rusty
I've been a member of FF for 6 months and a complete newbie to trading (Ive done some reading and taking in other threads on FF) Ive been kinda silent the whole time.
I've been testing Pip_Boxer for about 2 weeks now and I'm looking to try a few others if for no other reason than to get a better understanding of the forex markets...what better way than to look at how EA's perform in certain market conditions
Yes, I'd be interested

I like the general atmosphere of FF and the incredibleble and positive feedback from everyone involved.
Keep up the great work

That's what I like about this place, the folks are friendly, and willing to help out. Hopefully we get a few more that are willing to help out.

I have a weeks worth of reports of pip boxer to get posted.

What conditions would we use to make comparisons?
Technical studies & which ones?
Fundamental & geopolitical conditions?
breaking market news?

I'm kinda new to this so I probably wont be much help in deciding what conditions made a particular EA profitable or not in a given situation. Whatever IS used needs to be consistent across the board.

I have last week's pip boxer reports to post on that thread.
What parameters would you use to define why a particular EA was profitable or not?
technicals & which ones?
Fundamental & geopolitical analysis?
Market news event?
Whatever conditions are used need to be used consistently across the board.

It appears that I need to learn how to post to forums also!!

NO problem with the posting, we all have to learn sooner or later.

I haven't given the reporting format a whole lot of thought, but something along these lines should work.

Broker and Demo or Live
EA and what version, it if has more then one
Curriency pair
PIPS for the week
Any notes that you may feel are important.
Market conditions (range bound, trending up down, etc...)

If anyone wants to add something feel free
