Hope everyone had a good NFP....Mind you still going but I am grabbing my pips and running this am. Parent-teacher interviews today!

Thought I would share a bit of success using the EA. It is rather complex and I am assuming the quietness has been due to everyone getting to know the EA. It is complex but definitely the best one I have used! Thanks again Xux!

Please note I never use an EA as stand alone. Always with some sort of manual intervention. My goal is to have something working so I can get some sleep. Currently I have to get up at 1:30 a.m. to catch the best trading (London session) and I believe this EA will do so!

Having said that I have had particular success using the EA with Nonlag MA 50 on the 1 hour charts.

Settings: Nonlag MA 50, DSS 18,18. TP 200, trail is same. I have not incorporated anything else into the settings as of yet. I do however intervene. An example would be today before NFP. EA had entered a trade overnight and was in a 23 pip profit. I took it out about 30 mins before NFP. It worked out as the EA would have been stopped out had I not. Risk being that if it ran the other direction I would have lost out on profit. However based on daily/4hr time frame it seemed logical.

Please also ensure your Nonlag "Colorback" setting is 0. I have attached a pic of the chart with just the 2 indis. As always it is important to stay in the good runs and avoid choppiness...which we usually find out after a couple of losses but that's ok! Staying in the good ones makes up for it.

I should also note I have for years, intraday or not, used an increased lot percentage trading style. Some of you call it martingale. However that is doubling up after a loss, which I do not do.

A brief explanation trading 10 lots with simple numbers:

If I am stopped out for 20 pips, and price projection for next trade is 100 pips, I will add 2 lots on the next trade. If PP is hit I have canceled out the loss and still gained my goal for the day/trade, or at the very least minimized the loss.

SL = $2000
PP on next trade w 12 lots = $12,000
-$2000 loss = $10,000 gain vs $8,000 had I not increased the lots.

This of course is a simplistic example but hopefully you get the point. I would also not reco this if you are batting less than 700.

One of the keys to this also is ensuring that if you have 3 losses in a row and plain just having a bad trading day, that you can walk away from the amount lost and shrug it off. For me this would mean that 3 losses would be no greater than 1% of acct. Of course do what you are comfortable with.

Hope to hear some feedback on other successes!

Happy trading!

You can ignore this setting, it doesn't affect the functionality of the EA.

If FreshSignal is 1, for every candle a new order is opened based on the DSS Bressert colour no matter what the colour of the previous candle was. If FreshSignal is 0 a new order is opened only if on the previous candle there was a different colour than the current candle.

Sirs,

would like to ask what is the maxorder meant?

max order for a day?

max order for a trend?

or

say maxorder = 3, if the 3 orders are still in hand, it will not continue open unless one of them have been closed..



second question,

Indicator based exits are valid only once.

What does above statement meant?

Can you please send me an overview of the settings you use on the Uranus v0.2 which you feel are the most consistent in terms of producing results.

I trade off the one hour. I wanted to use the system on an automatic basis to try demo trading. However there are so many variables in the inputs tab under Expert advisers that I am really confused. You also said you use the non lag 50 plus DSS 18, 18 and TP 200. Can you explain exactly where I incorporate these changes?

Is it as follows,

In the input tab under the DSS Bressert settings do you change the default EMA of 8 and 13 to 18, 18? In the next section of the tab under Non lag settings is it the "Length" tab you amend to incorporate the change of the Non lag to 50.

Also I changed the lot size from 0.10 to 0.50. In some trades it accepts the change but when I switch to a different currency pair it goes back to the default of 0.10.

Also I keep having my orders closed prematurely. This must be the way I configured the settings.

I wanted to use a S/L of 20 pips and have the stop loss moved to break even. However after 20 pips is reached the order is closed.

In the downloaded user guide I don't understand what I have to input for the DSS/bRESSERT Level under entry conditions.

Overall, I think this is a really good indicator watching it on the chart particularly on the 1 Hr cable. However yesterday is the first day I tried to automate the system. Basically you can see I am really confused and would really appreciate your help.

I think the way I would find it most helpful if you would send me a summary of the settings you use in the input tab under expert adviser. If the changes are made here I assume that changes the system throughout and I don't have to make changes else where.

Really appreciate your input in sharing this indicator with us.

Kind regards

yes, the setting is correct for DSS and Non Lag as described.

for the lot size.. should not happen different as what u set.

if you want to use SL and TP as your exit condition, then u just set the SL pips and TP pips, and the second digit of the 4 digits value for all involved indicator shall put 0 since u are not based on the indicator as exit condition.

the DSS Bresset level setting have been asked before, Sir xux answered it..i quoted it here for you..

Quoting xux99
This setting is not a three digit one, it is a number between 0 and 100. The EA does not use the levels or any other setting of the indicator attached to the chart, it only uses the levels and the settings of the EA inputs. If DSSBressertLevel is 30 long trades are opened below 70 and short trades above 30 regardless of the levels on the chart.
wish this could help a bit..

i also figuring out how to set the 4 digit nicely...hmmm..

however, i have no knowledge in optimization, hence i change every day based one day basis forward testing result...

haiz~, bad isn't it...

please feel free to come discuss together..

The last is correct, it refers to the maximum number of simultaneously open orders per direction.

second question,

Indicator based exits are valid only once.

What does above statement meant?
If you use partial exits and an indicator triggers one of them, no additional exits can be caused by any indicator. The rest exits should occur by take profit, stop loss etc.
