Hey TC!

You are always welcome here - I only need to get up here in Old Europe to be able to read your posts. Then as I started to answer, the posts were all gone!

This is a slow time on any thread I guess, but it will be back to normal in about 4-5 hours! And do not feel like you are not part of the game!!

Greetz!
Gnat - Matt

Edit: You also started a thread about the new EA and its features? I will have a look there, too!

Hi TrendChaser,

I'm not sure what made you feel unwelcome, but I have always looked forward to your posts. We have also corresponded by email and that has always been interesting. If hope you reconsider as you are clearly a great trader and an independant thinker.

Hi Rick!

I think he is alright again. All of a sudden the dedicated thread for the EA he mentioned was full of people and Bill and I also showed up!
He actually is always alright, after he is sober again. And he clearly is a nice guy!

I am getting the soft landing together for you, but I have my kids days on Monday & Tuesday, so I am always a bit slow at the beginning of the week!

Ciao!

Hi Testers,

We will spend the first day or 2 sorting out the set files and getting our platforms set up for comparison testing. It's my fault for the late start as I got the set files to Orion mid morning EST and that did not give him enough time.

We are going to come up with a nice basket of currencies that will be larger than the current basket we have been testing with. By next week I will have the last MM function (scale out loss). Then we refine. These tests are on the longer TF's which means more opportunity to take profit during long trends through good MM. The downside is that we see fewer trades, so this testing cycle will go a bit longer.

Please let me know if you see any odd behavior (bugs).

Rick
Rick I put the new set file and beta on my live mini account without any changes. So far 6 trades with 50% win ratio but with profit. I noticed it re-enters even though re-entry is off, is this part of the new MM feature? its ok cause it picked up profit each time.

Hi Ken,

What TF are you on? Could you post a chart? Certain MM features will add o and others will modify the existing order to take profit.

Hi Testers

Sorry for all the confusion...my fault entirely (too much tequila before noon messes me up).

These are the current set file assignments. Please run them on several pairs of your choosing and, of course, on the appropriate tf's.

If anyone did not get their set files, I probably messed up your email address. Please PM me with the correct address and I will send them right out.

sntest (orion) h4_atr_ts_pyramid,d1_atr_ts_pyramid
sntest1 (rmyers) h4_basic,d1_basic
sntest2 (gnat) h4_psar_ts, d1_psar_ts

sntest5 (Eureka) h4_psar_ts_pyramid, d1_psar_ts_pyramid
sntest7 (fxtradera) h4_atr_tp, d1_atr_tp
sntest8 (dee) h4_atr_ts,d1_atr_ts
sntest9 (pipsqueaker) h4_atr_ts_scaleout,d1_atr_ts_scaleout

sntest13 (orion) d1_basic_pricefilter

Hallo Rick!

I have run into a small problem here and I am ashamed to say that it is on beta11. But then I did not want to take it off in the middle of nowhere, as it is a live account.
The trades all work out well and I am up at USD 1.617.22 from USD 1.500,00 since last week tuesday. All fine, but in the Journal I found a multitude of trades that were not executed, like a long on the AUDJPY 3 hours ago and a short on the USDJPY only to name a few.
The text is "Trade context busy" - my favourite on IBFX right now. It is as regularly as the "Mind the Gap" in the London tube (underground)! But from what I gathered the EA should try again and again until IBFX gives up, right? I was wondering, why there were so little trades opened, when the WHC demo was covering most of the pairs on the same TF even. So I looked into the WHC demo and found the same "Trade context busy" on only two occassions, while at IBFX there have been 5-6 only today.
Maybe this is no longer an issue with beta 12, but it surely is robbing us of a few chances if the simple dealing desk trick of showing a busy sign can ward us of!
Also kein Gemecker aus dem fernen Hamburg, sondern die Bitte um einen kleinen Systemcheck!

Gute Nacht!

Too bad you can't order it online, like wine. Shipping would be too expensive though, I guess.

I don't want to get too far off-topic here but Trendchaser seems to have developed a really nice EA.

yeah i believe with just keeping a eye on it
itl do good

i tried putting some of these options in supernova

using the hedge with just qqe was looking good

but i never worked out enough bugs to really see
i may finish it in few days

it works, i just made a error somwhere and the 1 trade per bar isnt working

i have another i made for euro usd

but the psar is better

every ea i put these features in are good

even my very first ea that trades with atr_stops indy

but the distance between the psar is best

Hi Folks

If anyone would like to test additional settings, we have a lot of set files using reactive settings that have not been assigned yet. Just shoot me a PM and include your email address (if you are a new tester) and I will send along the set file(s).
Hi Orion!
I would like to test some of your sattings but can't PM yet. How can I receive the set file from you?
Thanks.

Meganova Indicators

9 simple ma with shift 1 and levels -1, 1, -2, 2, -3, 3, -4, 4
Labtrend - (Only used as an alert not as a signal)
200 sma - trend direction
Discretion.

I'm still tweaking here and there but the main way I use it is in 15 min charts for low spread pairs and the guppy.

I use the sma with levels the same way as the T3 in supernova, the wider the outer levels conditions become less tradeable.

So, if the Labtrend is just an allert and NOT a trigger...I wonder, what else makes you decide on an entry?...keep us posted with the tweaking...
(just like you, I still preffer manual...but I take the supernova signal only when the price crosses the SMA50Higher for buy and SMA50Lower for a sell)

Thanks :-)
