Hi All,

Here is Beta 7. It doesn't have all the features I had hoped and I apologize for that. Beya 8 will have the Money and Risk Management. Promise

This version contains the reactive code and some mechanisms for filtering trades that get bad fills caused by price spikes (news) and fast moving markets that cause price to stray wildly from the moving average causing a valid, but usually poor, entry.

Here are the new inputs:

extern bool UseReactiveEntryQQE = false;
When true, QQE will use the current bar for entry decisions.

extern bool UseReactiveExitQQE = false;
When true, QQE will use the current bar for exit decisions.

extern bool UseReactiveEntry = false;

When true, all non-QQE indis will use the current bar for entry decisions.

extern bool UseReactiveExit = false;

When true, all non-QQE indiswill use the current bar for exit decisions.

extern bool UseReactivePipsFilter = false;
extern int ReactivePipsFilter = 5;
These 2 are used together. When the boolean is true, the entry and exit conditions will have to be true for ReactivePipsFilter pips before the trade will occur. This is meant to filter brief crosses of QQE and the other indis which could cause false entries and exits. This will need optimization.

extern bool UseSlopeFilter = false;
When this is true, the entry condition must agree with the slope of the internal EMA. So if a long is triggered, it will only be placed if the ema slope is upward.

extern bool UsePriceFilter = false;
When this is true, the current price must be below the internal ema when entry condition is met for a trade to occur. So if the ask is below the ema price for a long, the trade is valid. This helps protect against taking trades after price spikes that cause valid crosses and helps to eliminate bad fills.

extern bool SameBarReverseTrade = false;
This allows a trade in the opposite direction to occur on the same bar as a just closed trade. So id a long closes and the conditions are valid for a short, the short will be placed on the same bar.

If all of the inputs are false, Beta 7 works just like beta 6.

Please let me know if anything is not working.

For the testers, I will come up witha test plan to include these features shortly.

Hey Rick!

This reads like a work of art! I believe that this is really an instant kick in the axx for the EA and its reactivity!
Great work there once more and still going amazingly fast!
Guess the next settings will be based on that also, right? Thank you really so much Rick!

Have a good weekend and G'night from Old Europe!

Thanks, Matt. I hope it helps.

I should have pointed out that the Slope, Price, and Reverse inputs work with bot the reactive and standard settings.

Dear all seniors,

Which broker do u currently use?

I'm planning to go into live account but would like to choose reliable broker.

Any suggestion? I dont mind about charting, because I can separate the charting from real account.

Thanks a lot
hi pemainsaham?

I am no senior at all but I do have trading experience with FX Sol and GFT Forex. Both developed their own trading platform (FX Sol: GTS Pro, GFT Forex: Dealbook 360) and are quite reliable in my opinion. However, I am going to change to Interbankfx because I would like to trade using MT4 in the near future (due to Supernova!!).

Cheers.

Hi TC,

Is that the PSAR indi that is wrong or the PSAR TS?

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. You know the PSAR better than the guy who invented it Just give me a little more info and I will fix it immediately.

I am fighting the flu right now, so I'm moving a little slowly. Hope this fix is easy

Hey TC!

Been wondering where you were! Thanks for your expertise here! Let me know when to start on your EA, too, guess it is possible to do it at the same time. Otherwise you may inherit the testing team here later on!

Hi All,

With the release of Beta 7 we have a lot of new features to experiment with. However, there is one caveat that needs to be considered. SuperNova calculates it's MagicNumber using chart symbol and TimeFrame. So parallel testing will be a problem on the same pair/TF. Just make sure yourc tests all generate a unique Magic Number so they don't interfere with one another until I add the ovverride. I will release a new version in 2 days that will include a manual Magic Number override, any bug fixes that are needed based on the first 2 days of testing, plus a fix to to the bug TC has found with the PSAR shorts.

In addition, I will do the same MagicNumber override for SuperNovaStats. As an added bonus, this will allow SNStats to work on any EA you want to analyze.

I apologize for not considering the Magic Number issue during this release. I'll blame it on having the flu

Rick

P.S. The test group will get a confirming message about this weeks test plan from Orion.

both have a issue, the ts needs to account for the spread when going short
the indy needs to close when it touches instead of after the bar is complete

you lost me matt
i havent done anything to the ea in a while
i think the ea rick is working on does everything mine did and more

i spent most of last week playing with the makegrid ea

added 7eral features
it actual tests profitable with the right settings on the right pair

but i abandoned it because 100 trades scares me
but wrather than waste it here it is to any1 interested
if you use the original makegrid youl like this 1 better

but im not supporting it
most of the code is over my head
but i do see potential if used correctly

iv had some ideas to fix it but its over my head lol
i even tried while intoxicated

but it is improved results from the original
iv found settings that showed steady profit on eur-usd

but after much testing on gbp-jpy
iv dumped it

but if u want u can play with it
