I hope you're trading on DEMO. I'm setting everything (Stoch, MACD, and PSAR) to "true" and see how it goes.
Yes it's DEMO trading of course

V1.4 in post 1. The zip includes the template for ClearTrade.

I am still not certain the higher trade filter thingy is perfect yet, but it is better than it was.

The robot is generating fewer and fewer trades. This is to be expected; the more filters you add, the more trades get through them.

I tried the new template and it crashes my metatrader. I can install the new ea, without any only chart indicators and it works ok. I do not know what about the template crashes the metatrader.

Has anyone found a 1hr, 4hr or 1 day set up that is actually working well yet? if so can you send a set file.

V1.4: more tweaks to the trade-cancellation functions and some more detail in the on-screen display. Added the template requested by ClearTrade.[/quote]

In my Alpari Uk demo, template works fine in 4H Tf.

This week, we used only the PSAR one the Daily for a change and to give us the trend.

Our total pips went over 6,000.00 for 7 months of trading

We used the lower 1h and or 4h to get in when the PSAR ETC matched the Daily Chart

we only use the 5 entries all at the same price, breakeven at the same time at 50 pips profit targets, and let the next four run on the house money until they are gone getting out at 50 increments. The least you make is 360 pips and the fifthe is a runner with TS. You can make it in multiples of 20 and get 200 plus the runner.

We use Ashe settings with PSAR at .05 and.4 and Slope V2 for entry, AC for exit and AO for trend

Just food for thought.

Last night I tried PSAR and slope for entry, 20 BE and 20-40-60-80 for profit target with MTP v2-4

Money with no losses

Went in on entry on one hour in direction of PSar Daily only

What is a set file?

We made demo, 100.00 dollars in pennies during this last week. That is 10,000 pips. I know this sounds fantastic, but it is true. I am not trying to impress you, I am trying to tell you what we find that is working . Do with it what ,or if ,you want.

Just used PSAR on daily chart set at .04,.5
When it changed, just stayed in the new direction guided by the PSAR on the Daily chart

Used the OZFX to exit on 22 pairs. Left 5th as runner.
Trading for thought.

What is a set file?
Susan, this is a thread about an EA, and you do not know what a set file is?

Don't use the EA, will you. If you don't even understand the concept of a set file then you have no chance whatsoever of using an EA successfully.

Maybe your posts are talking about manually trading the Ash system, in which case please post in his thread at http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=156889.

This thread is about the system-trading robot. Talking about manual trading merely causes confusion.

Steve, I am sorry, I will not post on our thread again.

I have never used any EA but your Oz

I have traded Ashh II for two years

I tried your ea and have worked with what you told me, but it did not get me into trades over two days.

I was trying to help with some things we were trying to help you maybe your in programming this EA.

My mistake.

Have a great evening.

Steve, I have an idea I would like to try. I've tried many many EA's as I am sure you have also. I've also tried many strategies. One thing in common with almost all strategies is the 64MA. I think we could really increase our chances of making a lot of money by removing the MACD setting. Leave the PSAR and adding a MA setting of 64 simple. When we are below the 64ma, we only trade short and when about we only trade with the set up is correct for going long. Can we try something like that?

No fib, no Macd, only the AO, AC, both red or both green, stochastics, PSAR and 64MA.

'Tis done, Gary. V1.5 is in post 1.

Hello, Steve

If I use v1.5 into ibfx demo account in 5 decimal. Do I only add one more digit on the below setting? Do I miss other needed setting to change?
TakeProfit=2500
StopLoss=1250
MinPipsToNextSupport=300
BreakEvenPips=2000
BreakEvenProfit=200
JumpingStopPips=1000

If I turn on the news filter, one message always listed onto the 'Experts' tab as below: 'FFCal: cannot delete file Crogram FilesInterbankexpertsfiles5-19-2009-GBPUSDm240-FFCal.xml'. Does it no problem?

I had been used v1.3, v1.4. My many trades had been gotten 80~120 pips profit, but finally the trend was up or down to cause the trades to touch the default SL pips. Does it a good idea for TP is 250 pips?

And if I touch the SL, it is possible to take a week for cover it, due to 1 trade is needed around 1 week to get TP (250 pips). But it is possible floating over 1 week and go to reverse trend at last too.

Thanks & appreciate your sharing.

On some of the charts I am getting a RED Horizontal Line on the chart about the current price. Is this EA making this line or is it one of my indicators. Maybe one is doing something I am not aware of.

I have written a robot instructions pdf; find it in the zip in post 1.

I want a warm round of applause for doing this. Writing these manuals is dull, dull, dull, dull, dull, dull, dull, dull, dull, tedious, boring, dull, dull, dull, work. I hate doing them. Really, really, really hate doing them.

Hi Steve,
Just had a read of your new pdf. That one definitely qualifies for applause.
Full of good clear info that covers at least half of the questions posted here and on many other threads. Give yourself a bourbon or beer - you deserve it.
Great work you been doing on the ea too, many, many thanks and oh yea nother bourbon - mmm.

cheers scalpz
PS: just found out there is a limit of 5 smilies per post.
