I know , I will find you here, you old rascal
How is trading going?
You knew because I told you, you young rascal.

So far, so good . . . and up until now, it was Shiko-free, but check it out . . . you may like it and it would give me someone to tease.

BTW, I still have this Heikin Ashi strategy. it is actually very good. especially if you combine it with Pivot points and S/R areas.
I dropped Heikin Ashi and Stochastic though, but Heikin Ashi definitely useful on 5-15 min time frame .

How trading is going? I think this one should do better than 4H box

Longbar . . . thanks as always for your EA contributions. One question that has much to do with my general ignorance regarding EA's: I am currently switching from v. 1.2.0 to the newest version. Is there a way to save my settings on each currency pair in the old version and then transfer them to the new EA without manually entering each one? Thanks!

Trading this system is going well so far, but I'm only 2 weeks into it. I posted last week's results here: http://www.forexfactory.com/showpost...postcount=1125

Check out this particular strategy before concluding the HA is useful just on 5-15 min. time frames. This one works on 4H charts and seems to be well-researched.

I am trading discretionary that's why I took out Heikin Ashi and Stochastic. But idea was good. I have been doing it fo some time. results are good. But it is not mechanical obviously. It is generally S/R and pivots plus price action. Heikin Ashi might be used as filter inm this case.


BTW, we gotta set a pecking order here, who is old and who is yong rascal
How old are you ?

Ok ok, all hail the older rascal

I have checked records. Looks like hit rate is around 40%. I guess this one is trend following system and obviously mechanical.

Attached are my results for last week using the Mister Ed strategy with Longbar's EA (v. 1.2.0), with a 2% risk on each trade on a $5,000 demo account.

Hi Yen44x,

Thank you for sharing your results and I agree with you, my main interest is also to trade only what Mister ED has found profitable in his manual trading.

Using latest version: There is a bit of a catch22. If you use an older version then yes you may have some bugs that are not fixed yet, and if you use the latest version then you will have old bugs fixed but new bugs of all the additions you may not want. What is the last stable version? Or perhaps development is so fast that we cannot really answer that question... Would be great to see more testing results and I will try to help.

Yen44x: Are you limiting the days for trading as per initial document by MisterED? Or do you trade all days?

For saving the settings, you can simply press F7 (or right click the chart and choose 'Expert Advisor' and then 'Properties'). Then click the button 'Save' and save as a file. You can then later 'Load' this file at any time.

Looking forward to sharing more results

Thanks so much, bubo, for letting me know how to save my settings.

In regard to the last stable version, Longbar would know best, and he advised going to the newest version. I did that this week, while still using the original strategy, and v. 1.6 seems to be working just fine.

To answer the question about how I'm trading, last week I used the days suggested my Mister Ed for each pair. This week, I added the specific hours he recommends. It's hardly a scientific study at this point, but last week was good, this week so far is very good. For now, I'll rely on the data Mister Ed has supplied since he has the most experience with the system.

By all means, share your results . . . that would be interesting to see.

I picked up 591 pips in the last 24 hours. I am still using an older version of Longbars EA because I have not had time to load the newer one. I have it set to take all trades with no day or hour restrictions and taking all trades off the table at TP1.

Eleven trades so far this week with nine winners and two losers.

Very nice, my friend. Do you mind if I send the burros by to borrow a few pips?

I am using V 1.2.0 and the only setting I changed was the lot size. One other thing that will make a small difference is the broker. I am live with IBFX.

Hi Longbar,

My broker server time is +5GMT. So, at 3pm EST the chart shows the 8pm candle. Your EA looks at the candle or server time? or my computer's local time?
