My platform is showing no S/L as well. Is it hidden from the broker in the EA?

I do not recommend the USD/CAD, the dollar can squash it and there will be no retrace. Count yourself lucky and delete it.

I deleted my previous post. I got them to work on my Demo with the stop losses going both ways. Here is my .01 buy/sell EAs with 10 levels and 825 SL and my .02 buy/sell EAs with 9 levels and 800 SL. I hope this works for every one.

also can we jsut have one chart per currency or is there a reason for having a black background one and a white background one? the same info seems to be represented on both?

thanks for any help, slowly understanding this system, btw testing is going well...


started with $500 demo account... I open it before i got to work, which is 7.30am in Sydney so start of sydney session and then close it before i go to bed an hour before US session....

in 2 days its up 8.5% using the currency combos suggested in the first post.. and i think the most in levels it went to was the 3rd i think (0.04 lots...)

It is impossible to run two EAs on one chart white. That is why there are two charts for each pair.. the buy chart and the sell chart.

Ever wonder what making 900 dollars in one day looks like. I ran my EA on 20 currencies at .10 lots just to see what would happen. Yikes. This EA was designed to survive days like this and it did.

Even the Eur/Gbp set a record yesterday moving 320 points. Is nothing sacred anymore.

Hi Bob,

Thank you for all the work you are doing and the great learning experience.

Is this the new/latest EA you are testing? The latest I thought you were testing 8 levels at 80 pips with a lot size of .05. Has that changed to this latest EA? What pairs & lot size are you testing?

My results so far have been great. My biggest drawdowns and losses occur during the US session. Today's US session was terrible! At around trade #215, I changed from .01 to .05 lots.

funny... I only see lots of 0.01 - 0.02 - 0.04 nothing beyond that...

I like to start a live account with this system, according to what I have read so far, we can start with a $300 - $500 account is that correct?

Please correct me, if i'm wrong...

Cheers

yeh same here, better that way tho, less drawdown
i feel im quite fortunate in terms of my work and uni schedule that i turn it on when i wake up and turn it off when i go to bed. Means i miss the US session and what may be the biggest chance of a hefty drawdown

I've been following this with curiosity and just downloaded the templates and EAs. Put them on 20 charts....10 buys and 10 sells. Only the BUYS open. Is there something wrong with the sell EA? On IBFX demo account.

go back to post 209 and get the updates. Evidently I made a mistake in the original post.

To do a buy and a sell EA so they can do both at one time takes different magic numbers. Magic numbers are assigned to each set of trades so the EA and the banks can differentiate them. I have one account with 4 charts trading the same currency but I am using different EAs. Each chart needs a separate Magic number so the orders do not get confused.

Ask lots of stupid questions, when you know the answers people think you are smart and know something.
