Hi Every1
Glad to see everyone is making still getting the greens with Firebird.
Actionpl thanks for everything (appreciation goes to everyone as well for testing and continuous testing).
Actionpl I will like to ask if you can help me modify the original FBv63 trader seven if you have the time.
I will like to be able to put the EA on the daily chart and let it run on the 5mins (as in the case of the current version of FB you have posted) i.e. I can specify the Chart timeframe -(currently I have to open two charts for each pair)
Thanks in anticipation

Hi, you don't need to open two charts to do what you want. The EA is doing exactly what you want to do. If you open a chart on the 1hr basis, the EA will still trade on the 5min basis as long you have your parameter "Chart_Time_Frame=5"

Check if your parameter "writelog" is equal to 1. Set it to zero and let me know what happen.

I'm using the original version of the EA. I have disabled all alerts, but I still keep getting them to pop up. Is there any way to disable all sound in Alpari US?

Go to your metatrader menue "tool" submenue "option" select folder
"even" and uncheck the "enable" mark on top.

hello allˇˇˇˇ

My query is:
trade enable=safe to trade market good
trade disable=safe to trade ???????
Marketanalisis ??????
enterposition ??????
I would like to know they mean the last three often appear in the chart now thank you very much sorry for my bad English greetings from Argentina to an all

Those message on left top corner are only there to give us some indcation of what is happening with the EA.
Trade eanable: EA is ready to analyse the market since condition are met
trade disable:: It meant that the EA will not trade due to filter parameters
MarketAnalysis: The EA is checking the trend (if flag is on)
Enterposition: The EA is analysing the actual situation to enter a trade. Most of time it will not open a new position. If all the conditions are met, it will open a trade.

Best regards

Here's my statement, 1 week 1200 pips with 8 pairs (you see only 1000 pips for old trades in the attachment), no loss so far.

You guys had losses?

All along I kept saying I'm using Firebird_3.1a, i was looking through my chart today and I found out it was version 1.3a. All along i kept placing the 3 before the 1 - I guess it must have been too much excitement that clouded my eyes - All I can say is i'm sorry if I got you confused with this - that was my bad.

That said, it's still a wonderful system making greens - this week 15+ winning trades, no loss so far. So no matter the version you use, its the same Firebird. I was a bit worried about the NFP, but it does very well with NFP - that was amazing.

TheGabriel - Wow!, excellent result - I noticed your SL and TP are both 300. What settings are you using?. You must be using a broker that allows hedging to get those amazing result.

YES. This EA uses Hedging as one of it's strategy for trading - I compared my results of 2 accounts -IBFX and FxPro - FxPro does very well with the EA because it allows hedging, but IBFX does not.

My greatest concern now is the new FIFO rule - no more SL or Limit order (TakeProfit) by July 31st. I don't know if ActionPl can do something for us here - HELP Please!!!.

It's a 30 pips take profit and a 300 pips SL (I know is not that good) with FxPro, I think that leave the take profit as 100 pip is too much and risky, with a 300 pips SL and trying to catch the trade on 4H (all done by the ea) I'll be able to get a trend of 30 pips in my direction.

I'm testing, I'll increase value on demo and trade with this settings live. I'm sure most of the time I leave at least 10-20 pips on table before the trend does change direction again for the next hours, but I like it this way. Beeing greedy didn't work for me. I'm using your settings ayoneeyee.

About the FIFO rule you can use an EA that uses internal stop loss and take profit.

OR MOVE TO AN EUROPEAN BROKER AND MAKE THE US BROKERS, BROKE FIFO AND NFA ASSES BECAUSE THEIR BUSINESS IS AT THE END

Hi AndyM-pips, i notice that you use MA_timeframe =10, you can not do that. Valid timeframe in Metatrader are
1,5 , 15 , 30 ,60 , 240 .
So if you use other than what it is shown above, you can't predict how this will work. Try with 15, you will see a much better responce.

Thanks for pointing that out! Also, good job on vs 5b, works v well.

Chart_Time_Frame = 5, MA_Length = 10, MA_timeframe = 15, Percent = 0.05, PipStep = 40.

I have 17 win and the only lost is the last trade when the simulation stop.
I think the setup for your MA_lengh was the source of your problem.

You are 100% right! thanks

Hi

You need to trace a trendline and give it a description with Main in it.
Ex. Main_UpTrend_Alert_
Pay attention to capital letter and the _ otherwise the EA will not recognize it.

hi this is proof of full auto in ea
I wondered if it would have to operate well or not
eg realistic sales above the 83 MA and REALIZE purchases below the 83 MA is this correct?

sorry for my bad english. thanks youˇˇˇˇˇˇˇ

Hi Actionpl

I have been testing v1.5c.

Version 1.5c is not executing trades.

"Waiting for main trend" msg is displayed.

Could you please have a look at the code?

Actionpl - thanks for your reply!
But my demos at Fxcbs and FXCM ( both 5 digits brokers with my proper settings to that) have no entries so far even with writelog=1 or =0 .
My another demo ( 4 digits XTB brokers ) is running smoothly - all versions of the FB ( writelog=1).
Never mind, I keep testing on the XTB.
Good luck to you!

Been away for awhile, but now I'm back on this thread, soaking everything up like a sponge. My question is what are people doing on Fridays? Are you closing all open orders before the weekend starts?

Thanks,
Mary
