Hi folks.

For all those confused by the new comparative between the D95P and PipNick settings it's really quite simple.
There is no new EA for PipNick's settings. Simply adjust the settings on your existing EA (depending on the broker) to suit the following:
trade time = 8am gmt
look back = 24hrs
sl = move 3rd order to b/e when tp2 hit

This means that in the Fall Version North Finance EA I've made the DayStartHour:10 , the LookBackHours:24 and the UpdateToBE:30 which should (I think) be the same as the settings used by PickNick.
The DayStartHour will vary slightly according to the MT4 broker you use.
If you need to use a timeconverter then do so: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html
For example, I calculated 8am GMT to equal 6pm Brisbane which is 10hrs difference from when orders are placed by the EA at 8am here in Brisbane. Based on the D95P settings,the DayStartHour on the NF EA is usually set to 0, so I've simply added 10hrs to that to arrive at a setting of 10.

Regarding the upcoming comparative, I'll be using 2 North Finance demo accounts, one with the above PipNick settings and the other with the same D95P settings I've been using practically all along. ie. DayStartHour:0 , LookBackHours: 17 and UpdateToBE: 15

I hope this clarifies things somewhat and I look forward to the comparative.

Hi Mike,

Thank you for clarifying the difference between the two. I have a question about sl = move 3rd order to b/e when tp2 hit.
Do you mean to put the sl amount to be the same as the figure we have in Take Proftit 2 category? The current amount listed in the EA for take profit 2 is 30. i am using the EA for FXDD. I am new to EA's so I could be completely off base and I apologize for that if I am. If I am incorrect, would you clarify it a little more for me?

Thank You,
Jeff

Hi Jeff.

This simply means that the UpdateToBE setting on the EA should be 30.

This looks like it may be a good setup and the results have been great. I just have one question looking at the results... How does a pair end up with -45? If you are waiting to move the sl to be when the 2nd order hits the tp then wouldn't the results be different? Are you still using all the original settings (sl 30, and tp at +15, +30, +50) and only changing the start and look back hours and when be is adjusted?

You probably mentioned this but which broker are you using?

My own testing under the 8-17 time frame shows better results for those pairs with NF rather than IBFX although both are positive. Also the look back hours are 17 rather than 24. A longer look back time may be a good thing. Thanks for sharing.
Hi mtaboneweb

A pair will end up with -45 if the first order is hit (+15) and the second 2 get stopped (-60). I move the 3rd SL to BE when the second target is hit. Then aside of the start time and look back, everything else is as page 1.

The broker I am using is GFT (www.gftuk.com).

Hi Wallstreet03

I don't have an ea for this, although the ea with the original settings can be altered, see some of Mike's previous posts for instructions.

I am just trading it manually at present.

I'm affraid it is not exeactly as you posted.

If you change UpdateToBE setting on the EA to 30, it means that the 2nd order's SL will not be changed to BE when first TP hit (15). And this is not what Pipnick wrote. He wrote that we need to change ONLY the third order's SL.

I am sure you are correct, smilee89. Pipninck trades manually and so can alter the sl in this way. I am fairly sure the ea cannot do this.

Hi Mark,
Thank you for your forward test.
I have a question.
Does the result from the first weeks include other pairs that has been deleted before or it contains only the 3 remaining pairs?
And if the answer is positive (Includes) do you have the WEEKLY results for only the 3 remaining pairs from the beginning?
Before I start to calculate, I preferred to ask you.
Thanks

Hi Keivan.

Yes, the first weeks results include all 6 pairs. In other words, whatever results are posted are for the pairs mentioned in those posts.
To break it down you would need to refer to those previous posts, including the weekly results for the 3 remaining pairs while the weekly results included other pairs as well. See post#92 to get you started.

Hello all,

Mikelath, pipnick, et al, thank you for your continued work on this thread. I am new to this am trying to follow along with a demo account. I set one up at NF, loaded the EA, but I am not getting nearly the same numbers as posted. I ran the EA titled "daily 95 pips NF fall version" I ran this against usd/jpy from 12/24. I received the following:

This is only for the 24th but it seems to be wrong. I read through most of the thread and it looks like the time may be an issue in my EA setting? I ran this for longer durations and see a substantial loss as opposed to what is being reported in this thread. I'm not sure if I am doing something else wrong.

As I stated I am new to this and would appreciate anyones help.

Thank you in advance
