Hi sergie,

I think we have problems here with zip file, ok i'll attach it on first post and u can download it there.

About the firebird driving, i think we can drive all EA, but i found that Firebird is the most profitable one. How to drive it please refer to my word file I attached on the first post.

I'm using it on 5min chart wich i found to be enough profitable, but some of us here trying to put it on 1 min and it works too, u can use your favorable timeframe if u find its more profitable.

About 300 SL, best currencies, and setting, please...
Thanks for reposting the files Samurai. There is one question that remains unanswered in the Word FAQ or any of the posts you referred to. That is how do you manually drive the EA to trade only short or only long to match the corresponding daily trend? There doesn't seem to be a setting on any of the Firebird EA's to control this.

Also are there any big differences between Firebird V63H04 and the Firebird V63G Trader-Seven beside the "safe zone" concept?

Thanks Again
Serge

Ok let see this THV daily template.

Look at the white arrow I circled, its pointing up since 11 Mar 2008.
Confirmed by this indis below:
Look at the Heiken Ashi candle color, its green on 12 Mar 2008.
Look at the fast trix indis, it shows green line appear form 12 Mar 2008
Look at the trend bar indis, it shows green bar also from 12 Mar.
Now look at the plain candle on the right side of the THV template.
At 10 of March, the price seems to run out of gas to continue move down, confirmed by the next plain daily candle on 12 March seems like uptrend is dominant.
So.. after all of that aspect confirmed, take the trade on 13 March, drive it long, and u get approximately +350pips a day .

This is an example, u might have a better indis to make a beter descicion...
Hopes thats explain the idea in general.

Regards,
Samurai Power

I never tried Firebird V63H04 sergiel, I have no idea about the differences.

Thanks Samurai, that is helpful but I think you may have misunderstood my question.

How do you make the EA only take short trades once you determine the trend is short. Or vice versa how do you make the EA only take long trades once you determine the trend is long?

The EA itself, how do you control it? Do you just manually close all trades that it wants to open in the opposite direction of the trend?

Ps. where can I get the rest of your fancy indicators, lol.

Thanks again for all your help I do appreciate it.

Ups..
Actually i made that clear on the word file I attached on the first post.

Ok...
Go to Navigator toolbar button.
Open the expert folder.
Pick the EA and drag it to the chart.
It will open the window just like the pic below.
or simply press F7 to open the window for adjusting the EA direction.

Ha..ha..human...
Btw I think many people seeing this thread has the same problem. I updated the first post and add a note how to drive the EA, hope it clears this kind of question.

Ya, my applogies for not reading your word file a little closer, lol.

Man I've been trying to download the THV V3 system but every time I download it from the various sites and extract the file its just one file without an .mq4 extention

Not sure why keep getting the same problem over and over. After I unzip it should have all the indicators and template files. Not sure what is going on there.

I already have the Isakus system which seems fairly similar, but I like the look of the THV on your charts. YOu wouldn't happen to know where there is a download that works?

Thanks

Even without driving, the back test for EU for 2009 is very profitable. Max order opened was 9.

The high profits make me wonder if the results obtained are reliable.

Any comments on this?

Hi ahbinn,
Do u mean drive the EA Long&Short? or Short only?
Coz if u set it Long&Short the backtest shows a very huge losses.

Hello people

Im trying with new thing to determine, if next candle is tredable or not and which dirrection to trade. For this week, I'm up around 800+ pips (reallity goal is +500). I will trade that way for another week or two, and if resoults will be good, I will post my strategy, otherwice no (to save you some time). Some rules are needed, but I try to keep it simple.

Nice weekend all,

Hello all I just want to say this thread has been great and has re-inspired me somewhat after 3 + years of dabbling with forex demo accounts on and off.

One thing I have learned is that:
1) when testing EA's backtesting can be used as sort of a first hurdle or test for your EA to decide whether to keep or toss in the junk pile, but really tells you zip regarding whether or not the EA will be profitable in forward testing.

2) Trading live will be a little different than the results you get on a demo account.

So this brings me to my next question, just out of curiosity have any of you gone live with this EA using the "Driving" technique according to the daily trends? If so how have your results been thus far? I know there have been a couple live results scattered throughout this long thread but I thought it would be neat to poll all the live users at this point to see how they are doing.

Thanks again
Serge

Hi sergiel and all,

Something i would like to say about, yes demo account result will be different with live result, coz emotion plays its role (thats the only differences), me myself dont recomend taking this live untill u have a really really really good experience with this, demo for at least 3 month so u can have all the feel, spescially on a difficult times, take as much as possible difficult time with this system, and learn how to encounter it, i'm telling u guys this is really really important, i do really know exactly this is a very powerfull tools, but there is still a risk that u might not be able to handle if u dont dont know how to use it, keep learn and learn and learn how to encounter it, minimum deposit is very very dangerous, im highly recomend to take at least 0.1lot for every $10.000 per pair. So dont be in a rush to take this live just becouse u have 1 week profit with this, there is still lots of time to catch green pips, meanwhile take this thread a good place to disscuss how to encounter bad trade, knowing how to enter, how to stop, and how to turn the EA is the key for this system.
I'm not gonna stop saying this to you all, and i will keep continue posting this advice and u guys have to really...really keep in mind what i'm just saying for our own good.

Regards,
Samurai Power
