Well, if you would not mind, please post the *.set file for further testing.
I agree the .set file can be useful, but the good thing about the new version of the EA is that you can see most of the settings in the EA text at the top-left of the screenshot. Not the finer details of course, but a good start. In this case, you would need multiple .set files because it seems he's using different settings for different pairs, unless it's a coincidence that TP for GBPUSD was 10 both times, and for GBPJPY 20 both times.

Anyway, I believe at least some of the trades in the screenshot were the result of a bug causing re-entries without a new signal, which I think should not have happened. Results would be less impressive without the bug, but of course the opposite is true - if things had gone bad then the losses would be doubled.

I think I meant before about adding Sell/Buy Limits then delete one when the price goes into one, I meant to put a Sell/Buy Stop orders.

I've noticed the same thing and no you do not have to have the indicators attached to the chart, I like a clean chart and only add the ones i am using for entry and exit to each chart to see how they are doing, so far I've not had a lot of luck but its only been a few hours.

Here's an example of the QQE exit problem. You can see from the EA text that QQE exit is definitely on, and you can see on the chart that the exit didn't happen. Using default QQE settings.

Are you sure? Some EA's require indicators on the chart, some do not... since the mql code of this EA is not public, I'm not sure if anyone other than Skyline knows if this EA requires any indicators on the chart. Unless you have insider info, in which case I stand corrected

nope, no insider info, the EA is working with just the indicators used for entry and exit attached to each chart. I will open another demo and run EA alone with no tpl or indicators and see what happens

Hi,

Yes I know the EA will work with or without any indicators on the chart. My question is, will it run 100% correctly? The EA has many different indicators available for entry, and many for exit, so to test whether it requires indicators on the chart for every possible entry and exit method would require time and effort, which is not necessary since Skyline can simply answer the question since he wrote the code

Thx Jin for pointing out this problem !
This is why I said to be really cautious and test it only on demo account since this EA could still hide errors and with everyone's help we can find and fix completely.
I'll test it in live demo to check if QQE exit isn't working as you said.

P.S. : There's no need for this EA to have the indicators loaded on , it works 100% with any problem. It's mandatory only to have them in the indicators folder. Of course it's more simple to follow entry/exit points having indicators loaded on chart

Impressive results, but looks like bugs : You only have one GBPUSD chart open, yet one trade opened at 12:50 and closed at 12:52 (unusual), and another trade opened immediately at 12:55, just 5 minutes after the first entry, in the same direction. How could a new Sell signal appear only 5 minutes after the last?

I am seeing the same thing, re-entries even though there is no new QQE signal.

Also, unfortunately the latest version of the EA is still not exiting on QQE reversals for me. Now I'm sure I have all the correct indicators since I am using all the ones from the 1.4 zip file, even the template. Am I still the only one noticing this? QQE reversal is a very important exit method, but it doesn't seem to work!

One more question for Skyline : does the EA require any indicators to actually be placed on the chart, or can it run from a blank chart?

Thanks,
Jin.
Hi Jin!

Thanks for pointing out. But in this case the price action was so hefty, that here my QQE on 5M crossed and recrossed like a drunken sailor! But you still may be right. Unfortunately I am far away from 5M in my live tests and so I have nothing to show as far as results go!

Whether the indies are inside we have to ask the maestro himself - Sky??

Greetz!

Thanks Sky!

Good to know. Guess it just gives you more control about the EA especially in testing if you have the template running. But later on a hidden thing can be nice on your PDA on the beach! :

Hi!

More.

It takes as many trades as possible according to your set take profit and if the signal of QQE crossing is not xx bars away.

That's why we see those trades, like the last ones.

It bought cable and it closed with my set TP. Then, signal was still valid and took another trade.

I have Max Shift set at 3. TP at 10. Trailing by PSAR, true.

Hi!

This system and the EA made by Skyline are very good.

I wanna thank you, Skyline for your gorgeous work.

And to all that have posted here. PSAR is a nice contribuition indeed.

But if I do a test with Strategy tester, just two weeks, the results are not good.

So, I'll let it work as it is now for some days. Just to see what's going on.

It seems to work well so far. The skyline EA new version, using lageurre as Exit on 5 min just took about 85 pips, impressive stuff. Also the PSAR seems like a good feature to have in it too.

Just playing at the mom, no other entries on the 15 or 5 min charts as of yet.

Several trades on the 4h timeframe so will keep an eye on those, but they seem to be mostly heading in the right direction, so the EA seems to be taking good entries and exits at the mo,

Is there any chance of a standard or mini account setting for the next version so that the moneymanagement can be used with mini accounts?

MANY THANKS,

Cal

Great work Skyline and everyone,

very impressive stuff ,

Hi!

Yes, hard to believe; but it is what it is.

Lets see what's going on the next days. As you have seen, EA re-enters and this today has given gorgeous results, but I do not know tomorrow. So, lets wait.

Hi Marc,

Can you post the exact settings for your EA? I think it will be a great help for everyone to try your settings.

Thanks.

i noticed on the skyline alert some of the crosses were not alerted so i went back to the older version i had, replaced the arrows with dots and also you must be aware the skyline version actually alerts when the qqe cross is confirmed, sometimes 2 bars from the cross, this alert forms the bar after the cross so may not be confirmed but if you using DMI etc then shouldn't matter
