Hi Gnat, thanks for your response!
Well, my MT4 is already build 211.
But, unlike you, I can not see the file in Explore!
Is there anything in particular I should be aware of, when I save the ex4 file from the zip?

Mash
Another idea... the EA comes in a folder, so if you unzip it into the /experts folder of your MT4 platform, there is still the initial folder to keep it from the indicators and so on. Maybe it is still inside this. So if you go to explore once more and have a look whether your experts folder contains another "new" folder with the Glenn v1.5 in it, then, if it is the case, just drag and drop it into the right place!

Thanks for worm welcome
i hope my trader cat will behave it is a discipline one but i would be aware of the times when it is a bad trading day then i am not responsible for the mess hehe.

how is your manual trading going?there is not many left who is using the system manually but i like trading adventure and just to let you know i just made some changes to the manual system to get the signal at the right time because the actual system gives it bit late but i have to test it first to tell you if i am right or wrong.

have a good one
In fact there are many on here who are trading manually - but that does not lead to as many questions as the EA side and therefore our "mannuallies" are in a selfmade small crisis!! LOL
But the more make a public outing here, the better everybody will feel - so - sob - I am trading manually too - and I like it!!

Just wondering why this trade wasn't made when all my conditions circled in red were up high (Buy) condition ?? Lag1 is up high but still going in upward direction.
Thanks

I must be missing something here.
I have an older version of the Supernova on a demoaccount, which recently expired. Untill then, everything was running fine. No problems with EA or indies.
Then I opened a brand new account, downloaded the zip-file from post. I saved all the indies in ...../experts/indicators. The EA folder in the Zip-file contained only the ex4 file (Glenn v1.5). I saved that file in .../experts.
Then, when I open the MT, I cannot find the Supernova under Expert Advisors. The indies are OK.
It´s bugs me, I must be doing something wrong. I managed to do everything correctly with the older version.
What am I missing here? Any ideas?

Mash
Hey Mash, you didn't say anything about loading the template in the templates folder, did you do that? There are two of them you know; one for manual supernova and one for the EA...

Hello Kosmo!

Seems like I know you from a past life - maybe I am just crazy. Good to have you here my friend and lets keep working on the manual side of things until the Lord of the Flies and his cohorts get their EA together. Maybe your vacation in Slovakia will refresh you and you will become a super Slovakian manual trader. BTW the cat thing is a nice touch.

Talk to you soon,

Dogman

Good Morning Gnat!

Good idea, i will try the drag and drop. Might just work.
I´m at work right now, so I will give it a go when I get home tonight.
Thanks for your advise!

Have a nice day,

Hi Wolfe,

I had a feeling I was missing something.
Will have a look at the template when I get home from work tonight.
I know there is an instruction in one of the posts here, but I can not find it. do you know where it is?
Thanks for your help.

Have a nice day.

i've been doin live $.10 trades with this system and it seems like every time i enter i always get in on a high then the market turns bearish or the other way around. i looked back and the system seems pretty solid. Any hints? like does the market have to be fast trending or anything. what am i doing wrong?

this is what i am doing for long trade:
time frame: 5 min GBP/JPY
make sure that there are no heiken wicks facing the T3 line.
make sure that the candle is cleanly above the T3 for long trade.
DMI blue line on top
Momentum above 0
I usually enter after the candle where the QQE crosses over is formed.

To trade 5 min you need to know what your doing and perhaps approach this system a little differently. Try adding a 50 simple moving average and only take shorts if price is below and longs if price is above the ma.

yea, same thing happen to me. When all indi agree, I enter usually it moves backwards quickly. I am thinking is there anyway to add an indi just forecasting a bullish or bearish day? Then just follow the signal along that daily trend.
Is there any indi can do that?

Cross of EMA 1 and EMA 5 on daily can be good infact it's another trading system at babypips.

But you don't need it, use a long term MA does the same thing and trade with the mini trends

Looking at the H4 and the daily chart may also do the trick. The overall trend may be visible at first glance! (Guess Acko is thinking about adding some more spaghetti as he put it to his L20 also.) Just keep it simple. As you have the template on your chart anyway when trading of the 5M, just switch to the 4H and see whether it is an intact red or blue phase there. Then the daily chart will give you the really big picture and then you can decide about north or south as the main & midterm trend.

Yup if you trade the longer timeframes you should not need any indicator to tell you the trend. On 5 min or 15 min a simple MA can save you switching between tf's.

Right... but should you not KNOW the trend of any pair ere entering into whatever TF? LOL... only fooling around. Sure an ema or other can not hurt. Are you at work already? Guess you had a short nite then ...
