Started to develop an EA but the problem with v2.1 is that it repaints. So results were not as should have been...

As per acccia, v 2.8 does not repaint... but I haven't tried the EA code with that version.. Will try that over the weekend.. But i am NOT seeing a good response for v 2.8 (as per comments by some people here).

My favourite v2.1 as well. Never seen anything so simple and effective. Hope an EA developed for it.

so far so good.

Started Carmen 4 days ago on GU, GJ and EJ. had traded about
14 trades on demo acct, 2 losing trades so far but overall profitable.
tp set at 30pips.

i'm using the 2.1 version with the original alert EA. works well for me
at the moment. 1.1 EA is creating lots of messages almost every fractions of a second on the expert log. i cannot refer to which pair is alerted for
action, as it scrolls so fast that i have to replace with the original.
will do more demo somehow....

will spend some time to try ver 2.8. any alert EA as well?

thank you for sharing this system.

happy trading

cheers

If you want to optimize your results on your EA, you might consider using a pyramid system to add to your positions when the market is trending.

I am currently not trading this version since it does not conform to my style of trading but am watching it very closely to evaluate it as a potential EA. Based on observation I believe it would make a dynamite EA. I am watching it on a 15 min timeframe with 75 - 40 -20 settings. I am not watching price at all only the MA as it moves back and forth. I have had no success with the alert that was written by a member. It worked for me once and that was it. I am sure that the 2.8 version is a great improvement over 2.1 and will probably do a comparison...
Hi Jolly

Totally agree with you. An EA for this version would be fabulous!! I hope someone can develop one http://cdn.forexfactory.com/images/icons/icon10.gif I am trading it on demo on a few pairs and so far my results are good. In addition to Carmen, I use pivots for TP and to help me decide in entries and I trade from London open.

Also a big thanks to Aiccia for sharing.....very good indi.

Well I do have to say that this is the best indicator for my trading style..5 min chart, I have always been a quick hit trader. the results shown are short term trades, either closed manually or i set the trailing stop (115) on my 5 digit broker. So you can hit and run because there is another trade around the corner.

Thanks and safe trades to all

Seems a little quite here atm.

Hoping for Carmen's eyes to offer some trading opportunities in the next couple of hours.

I've tried saving the newest version of the indicator but for some reason it is not letting me save it in the mt4 or ex4 version, instead it is making me save it in the php version. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks in advance.

Another good looking Carmen signal.

Waited for price to return to carmen line and then took long.

Let's see where this one takes us.
