Hello Once Again!

to All testers pls update the EA you are using. This version should eliminate false entry signals in the EA. When We have tested this version to be working without bugs we can add the improvements to the strategy such as MA based Stoploss and MA based Trailing Stop.

Thank you again for testing,
Mikhail

nice....if you look at the CHF JPY....it looks so close...and the highs and lows cross the 75/85 but the 5ma does not cross it, and it reversed. The ea did not call that trade...

I think I am impressed.

That looks awesome Jamdown, but I do not believe that you never go into a negative balance....that the drawdown is zero seems really unattainable. I have instant drawdown with the current positions the way they are structured.

So, to me, before I even consider looking at something with no stop loss, I would want to know what the maximum drawdown has been.

Others want to say that I am an idiot or confirm what I am saying?

Thanks,

Strategy Tester only shows drawdown of the balance, and since he didn't put SL there was no drawdown. Startegy tester doesn't show drawdowns on equity. This is very dangerous basically your using margin call as your SL.

Jamdown how about trying to put high SL like 200 or something just to see if it will be hit or not.

turn MM=false; then change lot = 0.1

But I believe this EA and Strategy requires further testing before live trading. But its your money and your choice.

Bandito,

You need to go into properties of the expert advisor or ea on the pair that you are trading, and you need to do it for each pair...., make MM (moneymanagement) False, make Microlots True, and change lot size to .10.

I believe that will do what you desire.

Bandito's results made me curious. I did a quick manual backtest for Oct 2006 eurusd (it was a tough month...). The optimal TP at M30 timeframe would be 60 p. after crossing the MA's, while for M15 the optimal TP would be 20 p. Re. SL, I now firmly believe that the other side of MA's is best.

M15 produced twice as many trades as M30, but in terms of gain, it was about the same amount. So, being a lazy person, I stay with the original TF, but I guess some people would like M15 more...

Thanks, Bandito, for generating this nice idea!

Guys,

Right now I use IBFX for my MT4 indicators. Do you guys have reccomendations of other brokers that use MT4?

Is there an ECN that uses MT4?

Thanks,

In another thread, it has been claimed than an ECN can't use MT4. Regarding market-maker broker, I think that the most important thing for a beginning trader is to use micro-accounts (pip = $.10), which allows for optimal money management. I'm aware of four MT4 broker with micro accounts: Interbank FX (I read awful comments aboput them here and on other forums, but check yourself), NorthFinance (good reviews, 1:500 leverage, an off-shore company - it scares some people), MWHeadway (not many reviews, but seem fair, 3 p. spread on gbpusd, 1:200 leverage), and FXDD (1:200, 4 p. on gbpusd) which I use, they are not bad - if you don't trade the first minute of the news.

My IB can get you on an ECN that uses MT4 if your Dep. is over 20k.
I retested with a 100 pip stop loss and a 75pip tp. Here are the results...better than before. For the mont of Jan-Feb 13 it never went more than 20 pips in the reverse of the cross so Drawdown was minimal. I dont know how to show that on the report but you can see on the visual. My opinion is that these crosses are very significant to the overall trend so you would have to give it a little more than a 20-50 pip room to do its thing but at the same time go for the big TP. But then again, January was a choppy month for the Cable so that might have been the best scenerio for this setup.

It`s absolutely useless to make test with Modelling quality less then 80%, don`t believe in that resalts. You shood try to use all 1min qoutes for selected period - it`s a must. Have a look at my test resalts, I`ve used 1 lot, with 4 - it`s account crash.
Good luck.
