Dont get bored.. No trades yet. The market is not moving so our EA is preventing us from making trades at this kind of market. I f you are using NF there is a NU trade on the Ultimate and Delight. Ultimate did enter a bit faster than the Delight reason why the Delight is a lot more negatives than the Ultimate. witn Interbank no trades yet, perhaps towards London open trades will be opening quickly. Good Luck

I dont have any Long Term Trade at the moment, i will post it on the "Signal thread" if i made one. Its kind of slow when the market is just starting to move.

so what happens if i adjust it, just a thought, not an intention - will it affect both TP's by the same amount - ie 60pips tp moved to 100pips, will it move the 100 to 140?

1 GU sell trade opened.

trader101, just want to comment on a teriffic job on your EA's. I have been running the ultimate for a few hours and already have two profitalbe trades. I am normally an indicator kind-a-guy. Strange to have a robot do the trading for me. May I ask what signals the buys and sells (indicator/s wise) or are you keeping that close to your chest?

Will continue with interest with your journey.

Once again well done.

regards,

Damo.

Thanks ..Bro..
I am demoing the Ultimate and the Delight on both the NF and IBF
PIPs Collected so far:
Ultimate: NF =340 , IBF = 420
Delight : NF = 280 , IBF = 360

I am not using any customized indicator just a few normal one. It is purely price action and the unknown THEORY of "Basket Trading" explain simply as All Currencies in the world are corelated to each other. If some dips other will rise. I took advantage of the rise and dips that is why the 13 currencies to trade.

Amigo,
If you dont mind. i will need a statement of Alpari at the end of the week. I will need it for further evaluation. I could no longer demo Alpari thats the reason. Also thank you for using them. I need others who are demoing other broker besides the one we already use.

If you are using the "Trader Best", note that it is a slow EA very selective and only choose high probability trades. Very ideal to those who have limited balance and do not like high risk trades. Ultimate is very quick and high risk EA hit rate should be 55-60%. Delight is medium risk EA.

thanks to Afxtrader, malarraz & MPP for demoing it in different brokers. Just for clarification. When Ultimate is just installed for the first time. It may take a little while for it to trade. Because it will wait for the reverse trend to trade. It will not ride with the existing trend when it opened. Reason why i did this is because we dont know if the extg trend is already ending and then we just come in to loss. better we start at the beginning of the trend. This was the problem highlighted by MPP with our last week EA, that we made a losses at the beginning of the week. Hope this clears some anxiousness that the EA is not working. As long as the smiley face is there and you see the ULTIMATE title it is working.
