Forgive me I'm on the sleepy side and I'm just seeing stuff. Yes I like your ideas for the reception . Too funny!!
Ok well does that mean I got a formal committment from you to take care of, let's say, the management of the guest list?

We'll need someone also for reservations, someone for plane ticket itineraries/coordination, someone for hotel reservations (and all that) management. Then the menu, the speeches, and of course we'll be giving out $$$ to charities cause we're the lucky ones + press conferences (and all that). And where will this be held exactly? In the UK, Canada, Slovakia (we need a list of Supernova follower's countries of origin to make a wise decision).

Oh dear Maybe just an intimate supper with pizza and hors d'oeuvres heheheh.

We need to get things organized fast you see cause my new (3rd) account (the bread and butter) is ALREADY up (lemme checkeroo) DOH 28 pips ! Nah 29 !!!

(long audjpy + gbpusd @ 18:00 and 19:00)

This is TOO EASY :

Or i missed something ?

Just wondering if the Original indicators for SuperNova need to be loaded on the chart for your modified EA to work? I do have them in my indicator list but have made a couple minor adjustments and have left the QQE off. (not really a big believer of EA's but want to look it over.)
It is smiling so maybe it will function properly.
As you can see I have made some modification but it is still basically the same approach.
I want to thank cryten for his original input. It got me to this point. I have been looking and working with a couple of other systems at FF that are very good in their own rights but SuperNova so far has my vote.
Its simplicity and the clear signals it produces are Great.

thanks
Tom

That's MIG investments, a swiss firm. Oanda has even tighter spreads, but as far as I know, they're not "linked" to MetaTrader, so they can't be considered for this robotic strategy.

Testing your explanation here (thanks, hope this works) --> #1036

I'm definitely struggling with exits (TP + SL) as well. But ya know, now that the entries are taken care of, now we want the little bots to hold our hands and tell us if/when to exit (at the tops and bottoms of course, of course).

I was toying this morning (yup didn't show up at work) with the idea of setting some % gain/loss for the TPs. Then nah maybe simply setting a 20 pip TP and SL across the board (except maybe GBPJPY). Or simply trailing all the bots (chasing them lol) after 20 is hit, with SL I-don't-Know YET. Then nahhhhh............. See this isn't perfectly pure crystally clear right now in my head.

For now, I'll try not to mess with the "automatic" bots (like I did this morning by mistake), just letting them run their course (and get lost in the woods if that's their destiny lol), and I'll try to manage my own little bots as best I can. Took some "manual" profit earlier +30 pips gbpusd, +30 pips eurjpy (I was in my "maybe 30 pips?" phase) and +19 pips gbpjpy after realizing I had entered by mistake a full STANDARD LOT (never trade before having had some coffee, best advice on earth)

The "autobots" are currently at a combined +80 pips and my "humanbots" are at -34 (straying in the woods a bit --> like me from work, prolly God punishing me heheh)
Thanks for the update...

MIG seems to be another alternative to look at. Unfortunately Meta Trader was friendly enough to recently sell an update to brokers that will slow down the paltform at newstime. I was wondering why I had only one entry at IBFX in the last 4 weeks. Now I know how that happened... but this makes MT4 a "no go" for newstrading and I cannot expect any fills at IBFX. Therefor I do not need to put up with their spreads any longer and can easyheartedly move to another MT4 broker for robotic trading.

The problematic TP/SL topic seems to get easier the longer the timeframe. As simple is beautiful (in the world of FOREX) a dot - to - dot strategy seems to work out nicely. Although I understand your approach of trying to get 20 pips and then be out of it, I think that is giving away too many sure pips per month. On lower timeframes 20 pips may actually be too much to try and grab on a single run. (See the discussion of making EURUSD profitable.)

My botties are making consistent pips on GBPJPY, GBPUSD and EURJPY. By now I am stikcing to those, but am very interested in your progress on the other Yen-crosses. The EURUSD is also of interest to me, as I have spent a lot of time with it ...

For now, I'll just stick to whatever I've got in there that the EA considers it recognizes (I had the "can't load QQC" error message as well yesterday) and wait for a cleaner, nicely packaged and identified (+ zipped) version of the basic set-up (indicators, templates, EA + readme instructions LOL) and oh! SOUNDS for heaven sakes I get this sweeking little sound like the rubber toys for pets make every single time I complete a backtest. And then I get frightening (cause volume is high) announcements that I HAVE INCOMING EMAILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL and every time I load the platform, there's this melodic SWISHHHHHH from a sixties sitcom type of sound. Anyway, sound is now off, and I just need the visual (no more need to hear the "LONG SIGNAL/SHORT SIGNAL" zombie male voice, in case I'm in the kitchen or something)

Off to see what 15:00 EST brings us..................................
I have so many indicators and EAs that I have no space left on the desktop and am moving these into folders and cabinets once a week. That does not really help me to actually find something fast. Sometimes it is easier to just download them AGAIN...

And your little soundgarden is somethimg that is a dread to me also. I regularly remove these sounds or replace them. And a computer that constantly tells me "You got male!" is pretty nervewrecking in the end - I thought I was and was not getting that.

Swoooosh!

cant seem to get it to take the trades correctly.
it enters the first trade, but when the next 'dot' and setup comes, it does not exit the prior trade and enter another in the opposite direction.

any suggestions?
Hallo Ninja

you should definitely been out of that trade with your settings. I just realize that a lot of my trades end at the trailing stop. I will take it off and see whether this happens here also.

Hi Sam³!

That is a very friendly offer. I may actually take you by your word after some smaller testing forward and some time to think about exits. Thanks!

Hallo FX-Ninja!

Just saw you on the stages... Definitely there is a problem with the 5M TF and the original EA. Although the settings are as you have posted them, the trades are not closed in the end.
I am now looking into the v1-1 & v1-2 by uconn10016.

thx! switching to 1 HR for now. i noticed that the EA opened a trade at the begining of the next HR where DMI and momo were positive even tho the blue 'dot' came hours earlier...interesting. seems like the first trade, i will have to leave EA off until the nxt 'dot' appears then the EA on so tat i am not entered 'late'.

did anyone else experience something similar?

i will try to post a pic.

Hi!

Here's another QQE-test. This time results were even better, I'm not quite sure did I get everything right. Anyway, the point is clear, you can make nice pips just using QQE in longer timeframes. And when using SL results are even better.

I've to go to sleep now, it's 1:20am here but tomorrow I'll run some more tests

Just before I fetch my son from Kindergarten... AMAZING work - and likewise results.

I was just playing around with MAs on charts. I add SMA(48) to my 15M which means it's an 12 hour MA. I wanted it to confirm trend, so I would only take longtrades when price is above it and shorts when below. Then I add +100 and -100 lines to MA and they seemed to act some kind of support and resistant levels. I also have in test some other lines which I borrowed from Mr. Fibonacci 144 seems to be quite nice.

Have you tested pivots, they are working too. I think someone here told that before. I'm also working QQE on 1H. Maybe I should just take that "easy" 20 pips per day but man can get greedy
