I already have the EA, it works alright, but needs some tweaking because it only trade once per day ....
Hi Schminner, How I can contact you. Really hope you can share the EA with me and the others . You can contact me or send the EA to [email protected].

Tq and regards

Thanks for the great ea. I have been trying it out all week on several pairs. One thing I noticed today is that the gbpusd stalled out after 4 trades in a 7 trade sequence and the usdchf stalled out at 6 trades in a 7 trade sequence. I have attached the log.

Thanks Again

BTW does anyone know why mer's powerswing forum was closed?

Much Thanks

Bill

the video on post #33 was deleted. Someone have it? I don't understand how to use the spreadsheet. I want to use it to calculate a sequence like the Lucky 7. Someone can help me with examples? My math is very very bad.

thanks in advance.

thanks

what i understand is that AFTERA i have the calcs about lots i use the spreadsheet to calculate R:R of the entire sequence. Correct? I asked him in this new thread and still with problems to understand if there is a method choose the lots of each sequence. What i came with is: multiply the second by 1.2, third by 3.75 and 1.2 again in the next lots.

or i am wrong?

sorry, is that my maths is bad as my english.

thanks again.

best regards.

I am not sure I understand your question. What I do is enter my order size into the orange order column, I use a sequence of 11 on a micro account with a max profit of $28.60 and max draw down $26.40. The sequence is .01, .01, .02, .03, .05, .08, .13, .22, .37, .62, 1.1. As I enter the order sizes I look for something close to 1:1 in the profit and draw down columns.

Hope this helps.

Mer,

Could you please post the EA that will not expire? I plan on using this long term. I am having good success with a 20p S/L and 80p T/P and just letting the EA run 24/5 on the EUR/USD.

Thanks, Lcfx

When you modify the EA do you stop the last number in your series with a ; or just end it? I just added this but as soon as I started the EA it opened a deal with 0.16
0.1;0.13;0.16;0.2;0.25;0.31;0.4

Thanks

I have been running Xaron's sequencer EA (thanks Xaron) for 3 weeks now. EURUSD is 12 for 13 with a total profit of $29.40, not a lot but with a account of $200 I will take it. On my demo account I have tested quite a few pairs, the best performing were the eurchf (8 for 9), gbpusd (10 for 12), eurjpy (7 for 10), the remaining pairs did not fair so well. I am running the ea Mon - Thur from 5:00 until 16:00 gmt.

Personally I use Xaron's Sequencer EA. I have found that I have fewer problems with it. With it you enter the sequence on seperate lines.

Thanks, I started using that as well. In your testing are you using the same S/L - T/P for all pairs? Also do you know where I can find a good explanation of how the breakeven thing works?

I am using the 10/40 sl/tp. I looked briefly for the explanation to the ea but could not find it. It is buried in this thread somewhere.

Break Even stop. If the price reached this level the stop loss will be set to the open price. That way the EA will use the same progression level again. If you don't want to use it, set it to 0.

Testing 0.01, 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04, 0.06, 0.08 on USD-JPY with SL15 TP60 and BE45

Mer,

Are you still here? Can you please post the EA that will not expire? I am currently using 30s/l & 120t/p on EUR/USD with good success.

Hi, I really appreciate your work and thanks to TXTradePro, mer071898, Xaron.
I think these EAs are great tools in trader’s hands.
May be you could put in it one more option - for ranging markets. Example – if price ranges between 1.0500 and 1.0550 you can set EA to sell at 1.0545 and bay at 1.0505 with S/L, T/P and in this case you should turn off leveling.

Great Job … Thanks.

Hi!

I downloaded your EA and opened in my Metatrader using the default setting I am backtesting. However, I keep getting the following error message.

"PowerSM V.5 EURUSD, M15: OrderSend error 130"

What does that mean?

I want to test with an account balance of $500 and am using the EveryTick mode for my backtesting.

Can you give me assistance as to the proper settings?

Thanks.
