Hi Skyline

If we add take profit of 100 to the input, the position would be closed either at 100 TP or at 23:00 whichever comes first, is this correct?
yes it's correct

Thanks a lot skyline

One more question, my daily bars close at 22:00 GMT, does the EA still open and close the trades at 00:00 and 23:00 GMT respectively?

Have generate approximately 375 PIPS in the last three days using the daily scalping system in the GBP/JPY market. This is a nice rebound and recapture from losses sustained during last weeks choppy markets.

Hope everybody trading the daily system is likewise enjoying the systems performance...

Happy Trading,

Hi TK

Are you using SAR50 or 40 for GJ in your own trades?
I am assuming that the SAR50 means stop and reverse. On the daily and weekly system, I use no mathematical indicators because I like the simplicity. I simply follow the previous trends as indicated by the daily/weekly price bars that appear on the graphs.

Many thanks to Tkimble and Skyline,


You two guys are doing a great job and are helping and giving illusions and hope to many people.
No amount of thanks would be enough.
Keep doing well, we'll keep on our part, that is trying your systems and humbly discuss possible improvements.
No matter what system we finally pick up and better suits each trader style, you share your effort with us, no rewards asked, and that is too much these days.
Aside of these particular system, we learn lot of thinks and concepts about FX markets which at least for me (a 1 year rookie) is a very valuable treasure.
Congratulations and Thanks

Just wanted you to know...

I did not mean the indicator SAR , I meant if you are using a 40 pip stop or a 50 pip stop for GBP/JPY in your trades which if hit, you reverse the position at the same time, this action constitutes a SAR.

I know the glory of this method lies in the fact that no indicators are involved, and thank you very much for sharing it with us.

Ops I forgot to consider the difference between broker time since my broker is gmt aligned
Ok I will add a variable GMT_Shift so that user will input Broker's gmt shift thus EA will open order at 00:00 GMT and close order at 23 GMT

Edit : v1.0a with gmt_shift variable added here http://www.forexfactory.com/showpost...&postcount=135

I recently read that tkimble uses a 50 pip stop (then reverse) for the pound yen and 40 pip stop for the pound dollar...and that is what i have been using...with great success I might add...

Hope this helps...

Thanks Tkimble...it's almost too good to be true...

The GBP/USD is suffering today on the daily model. I have been stopped out twice and I am down 20 pips as we speak.

I was not in the trade but as I see GBP/USD should not have hit the stop as yet, on the other hand GBP/JPY has had a good run.

I have done backtesting on the EA for several Pairs and found it to lose most every time. When doing manual backtesting on paper the Daily system seems to make a very nice profit most of the time. Is there something I am doing wrong or does the EA need to be tweaked somehow?

I agree, scrat, I had an entry at 1.9712 & over night & early this morning was nearly stopped out. Being new I got nervous & took notice of resistance at
1.9722. Just to see what would happen I set a limit of 1.9732 after watching it range all night & morning. It hit 1.9733. 30 pips for the day on GBP/USD.
As its been said the GBP/JPY has been good the last 3 days .
This system is still what I would like to call reliable.

I also see this , I backtested with EA from Nov 2006 until today and profit was only few pips on gbpusd. This EA need to be tested deeply and compare with manual backtest , if you get also manual backtest for past months it will be really useful if you could compare it with EA backtest so that we can find if there is some bug in the EA core.

Thx

yeap, that's what i usually do when i use daily scalping: set my TP next to the nearest support/resistance. it works most of the times and i'm in profit - which is what really matters for me, not how much i would have done if i have left the trade open... forex is all about risk management, not about potential big profits. but that's just me.

so it's not just me. i had the same results, but i thought i didn't know how to use an EA. i'm not sure i've seen entry points rules?
well, i'll stick to my manual trading for a bit.
