My friend successfully quit smoking, he's been smoke-free for 2 years now. He said whenever he got cravings he would Google pictures of smoker's lungs, lol

I'll try that, lol.

Just the patch (Step 1). Actually yesterday was easier than today but it's all mental since I'm actually getting my nicotine from the patch. I would really like to go outside for a smoke right now but I have to resist. It really is a lifestyle change.
12 years quit for me. It is the best thing i ever did and i am sure you will feel the same way.

Due to a bug which has since been fixed the EA actually took 2 trades on the GBP/USD on the same day. I was making changes and restarted MT4 to see it open a second time but like I say it's fixed now.

+ 427 pips.

This is because of the 2 trades that both hit their take profit and then split. Trailing the orders with a 30 pip stop loss made sure the other half of the orders remained positive.

Also if you look closely you can see where the stop loss changed before the take profit following the previous bar's PSAR value. Trailing with the PSAR turned out to be a good thing with the Pipnailer because I only lost 3 pips on a trade that turned around on me on the next bar rather than the original stop loss that was set.

Here you can see where the stop loss has been moved down to the previous bar's PSAR value. This is a setting (True/False). I really think this was a good addition but each person has the option to use it or not.

I've been using the EA since July 14th. I started with a demo amount of $3000 and I'm currently at $4320. I have adjusted TP's and SL's for some trades based on price action and support and resistance. Overall, this so far is a great system when used with some basic trading discipline and the EA seems to be working great. One question about the EA...the newer versions don't have the TP displayed. Is this by design or is there something in the parameters I need to configure differently?
Nice Job!

Thanks for your support. I am hoping this modification isn't far off but I've been very popular lately and been asked to write several EAs. It's all very flattering really but it's kind of consuming my life right now. I have a full time job, 3 kids, a wife, and now forex factory all begging for attention. I do enjoy what I do and especially programming and writing these EAs but I have to try to balance.

Oh yeah, and I quit smoking 26 hours ago after being a pack a day smoker for the last 21 years.

I'm not upset, in fact I really do enjoy being a part of this forum. Please feel free to suggest new changes, report bugs, etc. any time you like and I will try to take care of them in a timely manner.

Thanks again,
Matt
Congrats on getting off the weed Matt. 21 years is a long time and smokes are an extremely hard habit to break. You will feel better for it in a while.

Hi Metaboneweb,

Noted that you've been working very hard on this project and many thanks for sharing your work.

Could you please tell me whether the PSAR setting is still at the original 0.03/0.2 or you have changed it to 0.02/0.2?

Thank you, it's the original setting. Has it changed on the original thread? I haven't been keeping up with that one as well as I probably should.

I'm sure I will. It's a complete life change when you just wake up one day and stop doing something that you did 20 times a day (pack of cigarettes). First thing in the morning, last before bed, before and after meals, before and after...

Bottom line, my family is very happy and I'm sure I will too one day. Took me 21 years to program my life in a direction so it doesn't just shift over night but I'm not going back.

Tried the Google images (smokers lungs) and it did make me want to stay on track.

Hi mtaboneweb,

I was trying to test your EA, installed on two demo accounts on Sunday night. But so far no trade at all for almost whole week for both demos. All default settings on daily chart.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Which broker are you using? Does the EA have a smiley face or a frown on your charts?

Hi mtaboneweb,

The two demos are on ODL and Forex.com

Yes, I see smiley face on both.

What I am missing?

Thanks
