DYNAMIC Breakout Expert Advisor

Thom Absolutely no offence taken it wasn't even my idea to start with. But like you I do think it has merit.

Many thanks for the EA I have just put it on GBPJPY and will report back on how well it does.

I someone could help to set the time on it that would be great.

Again thanks. Schoe.

Cool Schoe, thanks for the kind reply. I hope your experiment is profitable...for pips, knowledge, or both!

Ditto on the hopes that the start time can be coded into the EA.

Today's L.O. sure seems to be a sleeper right now. Maybe the market is awaiting the UK news out an hour and a half into the London morning?

Good trading Schoe, and all.

This looks interesting. Will give it a try and post my results.

My first trade today using the EA for some reason I lost the writing on the screen and the trailing stop seemed to pack in at the same time.

However I traded GBP/JPY and made 10 pips.(net) You know what they say about small acorns! And it was very choppy.

On "losing the data info" on a given chart...one thing i've learned about MT4 EAs is it is best one the chart is up and EA on that chart to not change the chart in any way. That goes for switching time frames, recompiling EA or just about anything else. . . they seem to be tempermental about those things.

I hope that helps.

Hi Accrete. From some backtesting i've done buying or selling at 60%of the range seems more profitable.

Are you able to adjust the EA to give you the option of changing the channel width?

Many thanks. Schoe.

Hello,

I just signed up and found this thread. Even though I tested many EAs before, this one does not produce any stats when I run in in MT4. I place it on the GBPUSD chart (hourly), enable the EA, smiley face shows up next to the EAs name on the chart, then I select the date range in the strategy tester and the "closing price" simulation, check "Recalculate" box and start... there are entries in the journal after that but nothing on the graph nor on the profit/loss page. I tried both .ex4 file and compiling the source. They both run but I am not getting any results on a Mar 1 - Mar 31, 2007 timeframe.

How do I get this to work? Thank you.

could someone assist me in getting this EA to work, thanks
