Here are my set files. Broker is ODL.
TW,

Your MTFIchimoku settings is 000, which means EA will not consider cloud settings of higher / lower tf. You can use 100 or 110 based on open or closed candle.

Edit:-
All, I saw many set files with CloseIfProfit=1 setting, this will close the trade only if it is positive.

UJ 5M - using now the set from post 511 - it seemed to me already the criteria for entry have been fullfilled - but no trade at all ?

UJ 1M - 4 trades - but it isn't clear - why opened ... why closed ?

Karun, I took this trade live for over 80 pips but the trade was not taken by the EA even though I think it should have. Please check the EA file to see if I have it set wrong, I'm thinking it may be to do with the broker?

Cheers Poki
Can you check if there has been any error reported in experts/journal tab? settings looks ok to me, and trade should have been taken

This version is eating all my computer resources...I do not encounter any problems with 05. Is it only me ?

What is actual difference between "MinLevelDistance" & "SRDistance" .... ? Is it just "MinLevelDistance" include psych level option ?

Thanks.

karun.

i am setup for the 60M and 240M TF for USDJPY on IBFX.

a couple of questions...

 

  1. for the MTF dots, do we shoot for the closed or the current open candle?
  2. did anything change with the pivot indicator? it seems my timezone is out of control.

anyways, here're my .set and .tpl files for the UJ60 so far.

good job, by the way (goes to all THV-developer folks involved!)

AZBOfin

AZBOfin,

Your settings for 60M is good. It matches the entry and exit criterias as discussed. As posted earlier, CloseIfProfit=1 setting will close only if the trade is profit or be. This might end up with big dd on a higher tf. So you may want to change that. Also your settings on SL/TP/BE seems to be mixed with ATR of 20,14. Can you make it consistent with either 20 or 14?

If your 240M set file is also similar, then it is fine.

I believe I am up and going with EURJPY 1 hour and 4 hour.

I am going to sleep - I left a wake up call for when I'm rich... (LOL)

Thanks for all your hard work Karun and all

T...
T,
Your trix setting uses fast slow trix cross, the probability of patterns appearing and fast slow trix happening in a span of 3 bars is vey very limited. Can you change the settings to use fast trix same direction?
Also you are not using MTF settings for Trix or Ichimoku, this means your trades are solely based on current tf settings only.

You are not alone in the battle Wlfx :-)
Indeed it is using all the memory available for backtest and it's a little heavy on the system but I guess the amount of calculation it does is commendable, and it needs resources to do so

thanks

All-

It does appear version 06 is using some heavy cpu usage. I *think* it might be because of Gartley (that is the new indicator added). I have asked xux for possibility of some changes on indicator usage part. Meanwhile, you can start with 1TF(instead of 2TFs) to avoid heavy CPU usage issue.

Thanks!

@ Karun


So I started again with corrected settings - I hope it's right now. Settings are added.

New accounts with Alpari (UK)

1M: 855965 (zteb2rh)
5M: 856014 (1rxtdcn)

start was 06/01/09 at 13:00 (Berlin, Germany)
Mandl2007,

Your settings should look like

FastSlowTrixCross=1
FastTrixSameDirection=0
SlowTrixSameDirection=0
FastTrixZeroLevel=1

Also check your MTF Indicator settings, I think your are using 15M and 30M for both 5M and 1M TF. If that is your intended settings, it is ok. Just wanted to confirm with you.

If you are a Windows XP user and if you are required to change the extension of a file, then your chances of succeding are very low unless you have some tech knowledge
Extension is the 3 letter term used after the dot in a filename like .exe for executable files .txt for text files .doc for office documents .xls for spread sheets, it may sometimes be just two letters long like .pl for Perl language files. By default windows doesnot show you the extension of a file, only those files which it are not yet associated with any program are shown along with their extensions. Rest of the common file types dont have extensions displayed, when you try to change a file’s extension when its extension is not displayed you will just end up adding the new extension to the filename and not to the extension part of it, like you have a spreadsheet named accounts which is actually accounts.xls and you want to change it to a text file called accounts.txt when you just rename it you will end up renaming it to accounts.txt.xls where accounts.txt is the filename part and .xls is the extension part. So the solution for this is to make windows display the extensions of all files, to do this open Windows Explorer or commonly known as the My Computer and go to the Tools Menu (Alt + t) and then click Folder Options, in the dialog box change to the View tab and look for Hide extensions for known files and uncheck it and click OK.

ams,

The screen shot looks good, check the updated manual, most of the settings have been explained in detail, post your set file with the settings you have tried, I'll look into it and let you know if anything needs to be changed.
