Hallo Rick!

I know you are in the middle of coding, but I could not resist commenting on this little beauty that was ended in mid-air by the LaG! It ended in positive territory but still made me feel funny. Please have a look:

Ciao!

Hi Matt,

Found a HUGE error in the exit logic. This should make an enormous difference. Most of the routines that relied on calculating the total number of orders were using a custom call that was returning the wrong value. It was sheer luck if you got a close unless you were only running 1 pair.

I added the exit QQE parms and also the TF exit stuff. Most of the exit TF code was already there. All indicators will use the exit TF. Or do you just want QQE to use it?

Here is a beta of 1.7 to test. Freshly minted, so be careful Not much testing.

Thanks Rick!

That was fast indeed. And good work there on the ironing out front!
In order not to forget it: I would rather only let the QQEA use the second TF with a possible switch to have it on and off. This will be a testing bonanza of the finest as this adds a lot more variables to the game.

I will replace this for the old version now - or do you rather want me to do them in parallel flight to see the differences?

And about the exits: They were so random on my 10 pairs here, that I was really fumbling for logical explanations! LOL! And therefor I posted this other example there as it at least seemed to follow some indicator. Guess the testing of the new beta will really be fun in comparison!

Thanks for the speed and good communication

Hi Matt,

Parallel would be best, but this EA calculates the MagicNumber internally. You would need to run them in parallel on different accounts, which would mean 2 instances of MT.

Hi Rick!

OK, I will try that. Now I have replaced the old EA, but I can fire up another MT4 platform and load the same setting file into that, that I used before with the v1.6.
Do I need to use LaGuerre for entries on the v1.7beta then also? (Dontwanna, but if I have to!) :

Hi Matt,

You don't need Laguerre. I am really interested in these next few tests and betas. The bug I found would have affected exits and trailing stops. The EA will behave very differently (hopefully more profitably) now. We may have to tweak a bit now that the code is being called reliably instead of by chance.

Very good Rick!

Here we go already - apart from the "value" of the trade: What a beautiful entry!!
Will look out for more! Shall I test the trailingstop too? No problem if you want that to be included.

Thanks, Rick.
I am again excited by this EA. I am eager to run 1.7 .
My preset would not load. So:
SL 35; TS:35; TP: zero.; MM true; trailing stop PSAR 1 candle back.
Entry: QQEA 1, 14, 3 ; MOM period 10; DMI period 7 ; Laguerre gamma 6.
CCI period 14, threshold 116.
Damiani: 1.1 ;
juice and vol. off.
Exit: QQEA;MOM;DMI; CCI; Laguerre gamma 6.9 ;
Laguerre entry thresholds 0.45 buy and sell.
Laguerre exit thresholds 0.15 and 0.85 ;
Re-entry: true.
distance 999

All of this is probably meaningless, in the face of version 1.7 , since some of the exits were obviously luck.
Thanks again, Rick. Morning, Flything.

Hi Matt,

Let's hold off on the TS until we get some time in with the other changes. If there are too many variables it may be hard to figure out what needs fixed.

That was a nice entry. From looking at the code, I will be interested to see how subsequent entries go. There is some pretty complex logic testing for new bars, recent crosses, etc. I'm hoping it is fine, but I'll bet we will need to tweak it a bit.

Hey Glenn!

Thanks for the settings - if you rename the *.set file into *.txt you can upload it here and people then just need to rename it to "set". Hope things are fine in Montana and here, we have afternoon already (16:36), hehehe!
v1.7 is in fast growth as you can see and the water in Boston seems to contain a bit of that old revitalizing TEA!

Greetings!

Alright Rick!

Right... there is a lot to test and we may take it in logical steps rather than in bundles that cannot be untangled. Guess the code will really be rather complicated by now. But the lovely entry shows we are on the right track!

Glenn, can you post your set/templates files for others who are still trying to figure out what a Gama is and which one effects entry and exit. Thanks, and are you trading 15m or 30m?

Skyline/Myers EA is working SUPER on the 30 min. window. Euro/JPY; GBP/JPY; GBP/USD.
I was, no doubt, overloading my puny computer with too many pairs, not allowing it to process properly.
Entry on everything except Vol/Juice/Laguerre
Exit on everything except Vol/Juice.
CCI threshold 116; Laguerre 6.9
Go, Rick, Go. Something in that Boston water, methinks.

Thanks Rick will run also. Keep up the awsome work. I think we need to start booking a trading cruise for us all to celebrate on.... maybe some poker too...

Thanks for the kind words. Lots of work to do before then, I'm afraid

I have just found a bug in the entries. After an exit, the next entry is always delayed by 1 full bar from the QQE cross. This means that the cross bar is not ever considered no matter which indicators are used, which could mean a delayed entry, usually with a worse fill. This will take a bit as the logic is a bit convoluted, but I will fix this next.

Hello Guys!

The first regular trade taken was or rather is quite a beauty! Have a look and you will see the advance in the Glenn v1.7 beta technology!

Rick: I got funny alerts for a minute or so some time ago, here is the text:

2008.01.09 19:02:21 SuperNova EA (Glenn) v1[1].7.Beta AUDJPY,M15: Alert: 42.00983954 48.38319435

The alert rang about 20-30 times and then stoped. I cannot sear on that, but I would say that afterward the EA was removed from 3 charts!

See the chart below! Yehaaa!

Looks like mine took the opposite signal. QQE crossed down and EA took a BUY.

Hi Matt,

yes, I left an alert I was using for debugging by mistake. I will remove it next version.

I think I have also found a bug in the entries with regard to re-entering right after a trade. It looks like it accepts crosses that are too far back for my liking. I'm making progress and am very encouraged, but I think we have quite a bit of forward testing ahaead of us

Yes...they match exactly. Oddly enough, the BUY was apparently the correct call as the trade is +7 as of right now.

Hi Rick!

Just let me know what to test and I'll do that! Is it possible that the EA has problems to define the magicnumbers? I still only got one trade open. But during that time the EUJPY trade was entered, all the yen pairs crossed over and should be in wild profit now! Please have a look at that also!

Good Night from Old Europe! :
