It will follow any reverse signal it sees, but if that part about the 150 pip delta is true, then I need to modify the code.



Personalize? Have you even tried loading the EA on your platform yet?
RR...okay, I realize I'm an older guy and nowhere near as computer literate as you, but I'm kinda new at this EA/forex trading business. In the past I've tried asking you a couple questions and got nothing much but a smart-ass, impatient answer....and this time was no different! I've tried several of your EA's and have never been able to get one to work properly for me....but thought I'd try one more time. Yes....I've loaded the EA and have the smiley face....it's probably ready to go! But I noticed on the inputs section that the lots is set 0.0. I have an ODL micro demo account and am starting with the realistic balance for me of $1000. So what should I put in the lots section of the EA to have a minimum risk? Also how many pairs and which ones would you recommend trading with your EA? Would appreciate a little help here without the mouth....TIA!

Rule 1: Don't put EAs on live accounts unless you are comfortable with them.

I suggest you open a demo account, put the EA there, and let it run. Either through a backtest, or just out in the open market.

Ron,

Does the EA open 2 seperate trades at a time and manage them per the rules according to the 1st post?

Thanks,
Lcfx

No.

If you want to manage two trades, you need to open two identical charts, place an EA on each chart, and make sure that all EAs have a different magic number.

I didn't do the custom MM for one reason:

I designed the MM side of my EAs to be as flexible as possible so all sorts of MM combinations can be experimented with.

RR....if you'll read my post again, you'll see that I said I have an ODL micro demo account opened with $1000 starting balance. I will ask you again....do I need to specify lot size in the Inputs section on the EA? It's set on 0.0....so can I set it on .01 to trade the minimum amount possible?

TIA!

Sorry, misread your post.

You can change the lot size to 0.01 and it will set orders for 0.01, and only at 0.01 until you change it.

hi bull...

i was thinking about changing thread... even i have great interest and good results (after 2 days, haha) with the daily version im looking now more toward the h4 version since there is this problem with wrong indicator signals at wrong candle opening due to different brokers...

anyway... i think this is cool stuff... spent the whole afternoon on coding nice ea for that... once its done(might take a bit), i could send u a copy... dont want to promise to much...
but u have to know im not 100% loyal to ur system ... so fe. im placing instead of 2 trades only one but i let it run with ts... if it crashes the sl, its the same... and if it goes up... it should be more or less the same...

however, i will continue with my manually testing for the D1 version and post my results over there...


have a great weekend...

Bull101,

How are you able to monitor this around the clock for potential entries if you are waiting for the colors to change while the candle is developing? Your win results seem to be better with the 4hr system compared to the daily. What are your thoughts? I also like the cleanness of the indicators. I am going to add the AC as well and take a look at smaller time frames.

Thanks, Lcfx

hi there...

so far the 4h version makes good impression to me... just finished some manual back testing and its more pips won than lost so it works...

i think ill start some forward testing soon, or maybe i just skip it... im quite confident with that setup...

ive been thinkin about combining it with parabolic sar... anyone tried that so far?

Okay, I'm new to this thread, but can someone tell me what the "EA" is? Like what does it stand for?
Thanks

EA is a computer program that allows you to do trading automatically, while you are asleep or away from the computer; the term EA comes from the metatrader platform

It is a technical indicator.

You can find it on almost all trading platforms. On MT4 you will find it on:
Menu>Insert>Indicators>Trend>Parabolic SAR
