I think I figured it out. I think it is because i am running Virtual PC on a Mac. My ram is really low! So I probably need to upgrade my ram.

I also had another comment trying to show and I took it off and it is fixed.

Thanks for the help trendchaser

oh ok, that answeres it
you can only have 1 comment, so if you have a indicator that shows comments
the two will fight for it

They were battling. They sure won against my eyes lol

So you basically close the trades yourself because the EA is not that good at closing trades.

its like this, i always miss the good entries
the ea can get that for me
exiting is the key
iv found no good exit styrategy, because everything lags
a lagged entry is acceptable
but a lagged exit is critical
thats breakeven on normally winning trades, and major loss on normal breakeven trades
it only gets the bigger moves

i plan to post here, how i exit
as the ea makes trades

this is short term so you can expect about one trade everyday

currently i have the ea restricted to long only

after i get a entry, i will post it
and i will post and update my exit until its exited

bottom line, wel get one entry per day, and we must manage it for profit
this means checking a few times
turning ea off, or restricting direction
anything we gotta do

im doing the same thing on my psar thread

Hey Trendling! http://www.jubailforums.com/vb35/ima...nks_nologo.gif

Sounds very good - maybe by treating the trades like that we will find a common rule that we can later on use in the EA and let it manage the exits also.
I have an idea about different settings on the entry and exit with the QQEA. I will check on that and come back to you. Does your EA allow for different setting on entry and exit for the QQEA (I know I should know it, but my little disease keeps me from setting something up ... I am constantly on the porcellain!)...
Thanks for the posts to come! See ya around!

hey gnat
the problem with having a diferent qqe for exit
was that wed have a buy and exit at same time sometimes
so youd open then close
i can fix that, but then if you have a buy, but the other qqe is exit
youl miss the trade
i cant fix one without the other
so im faced with a double edge sword there

the bottom line here is we have
buy if qqe 1 up, and qqe2 up
close if qqe2 down
here we would mess up entry, just use qqe 2

any other way conflicts
the 2 must be used to cover all posibilities

we either have trades buying n exiting at same time
or miss many entries

you end up back to 1 qqe
cause the other screws it all up

i had same issue with envelopes in psar ea
the early version you could change period of buy, cl buy, sell, cl sell

but it conflicts
so now the period for open buy and close buy must match
or when they cross youl have problem

so basically qqe crosses other qqe

exits with ea will always be at the wrong side of the range
when you get a sell, the exit for buy is already way lagged
my way of manual exits hits tops very often
hitting good exits can make a bad system good

i cannot see any way that a ea can do this

how can you code the ea to look back at previouse s&r

our eyes can see it, but how can the ea see that
  • #3,495
  • Dec 11, 2007 5:52pm Dec 11, 2007 5:52pm
Can you use a pivot indicator for s&r. I am not for sure, but I thought I would give a run at it.
  • #3,496
  • Dec 11, 2007 5:56pm Dec 11, 2007 5:56pm
i had that in a previous version, maybe v3.1
i cant remenber
it was very buggy, but it would use the pivot as a direction manager

rick emailed me earlier
before i add any indicators or anything
i want to see what hes done

but iv been planning to add pivot
but im not gonna use a indicator, but a formula in the ea

I am new to the site and have been trading on a demo account for approx. one year.I need some help, however, because I have been unable to download the supernova ea to my platform. I did download the platform but not the indicators. Can anyone help ? Oion states that he had a good return was that on the supernova?

I am using the Trendchaser version of the EA (http://www.forexfactory.com/showpost.php?p=1751134&postcount=3370)

The indicators are attached to that post also.
