Another advantage is when there is sudden spike or something, and you are not comfortable trading, you can easily get out with minimum damage, before pending order becomes a market order. Since I am trading live, I have come out of such situations a few times.
IamTHAT,

At first I hated when a pair would spike 100 pips because my first trade would be .04 or .07 instead of .01. With market trades I would be losing on the .01, .02, .04 before the .07 trade, so I could easily be minus a couple hundred pips before the .07 trade is taken. This to me spells less dd and takes away the fear of those spikes. In fact I even like the spikes now.

If I could change one thing on the pending ea it would be to keep replacing the .01 thru the steps until a trade is finally taken, so my .07 trade would be .01 and the steps would start from there. That would really extend the range, reduce the dd and make this already great ea bullet proof, of course depending on the step distances.

Bob,

Ur stuck in a rut that just keeps winning and winning and winning. I luv ur ea's. I'm just looking for less dd and a way around those interest rate and news spikes without having to baby sit my trades. My hats off to u, ur the one that started this whole thing....Best to u and urs...Dan

Actually I like your idea on the pending order trades but I think that is how it works now. That is why it skips some steps but I maybe wrong. Either way we stay away from those super news stories and we will just keep winning. As you probably know I have spent most of my time at my 4H Nanningbob and am having a field day with that account. We never know when some guy here will have that one more improvement that makes everything better. I have no argument against the pending EA system, it does work and guys that use that are very happy with their results. Like I have said in the past if they ever have a final edition I would like to put it on the front page post one with some results and explanation on how it works. Those guys deserve the credit for their work.

IamTHAT,

Was just analyzing my perfect storm loss and with that single improvement I think I would have been on level 3 instead of busting level 8. Can't wait to test ur new improved ea. For non-programmers both u and Bob have come up with impressive ea's.......Dan

Does anyone know where I can get a working pivot point EA. I want one that works so I can study it to program an EA. I have a crazy, crazy idea.

We can convert your existing EA for pivot points.

I have one but that is an old ex4 probably pirated!
If you outline your idea, we can request in the programming section.
Here is one I got from TSD forum:

Hello Bob,

I've just got a link to pivot point custom indicator.
Maybe it will be useful for your idea.

Just made a profit a on the Chf/Jpy trade which experienced a perfect storm. It could have been a high gain but due to my stupid mistake, I had to settle for a small profit.

I first tried the 60x60 but as the news came out, I was stuck in a trade so I change the 2nd and 3rd level to 60x90 and the whole trade resulted in a profit.

One of the best thing I like about this EA is that I don't have to be glued to the screen and I can check back every couple of hours about the updates.

Bob and everyone else, thank you very much for sharing and supporting this system with new ideas.

hi all , have a look at my myfxbook 60x60 and 180x100 demos
http://www.myfxbook.com/members/Dazler74

this is a easy way to analysis the system and to see what works and not.
also bob it mite be easyer for u to show people what ur testing. also u can keep some parts private (history etc..) this is a great way to checkout ur accounts at work or on ur phone.
cheers daz

IamThat,

Took your advice and increased the pips to 54 and tp to 63 (1.8 x's your orginal 30 pips and 35 tp) and put ur master ea on a 1hr and 4hr account. Took every pair that had a spread of 10 or less and a daily range of 100 or more. In 2 days with above setup I've averaged $100 daily playing for dimes on both the 1hr and 4hr accounts with the 1hr charts only reaching the 2nd level and the 4hr charts reaching the 3rd level twice. The 1hr charts are also producing less dd by more than 50%. I imagine if I increase the 4hr's pips and tp I could lower the dd and increase the range more than the present 486. Granted this is only 2 days, a true test will be the rate days, heavy news day and several weeks/month of testing.

I have been testing ur out of the box master ea for a few months now with my best success coming on the 4hr charts, but nothing like these new settings. Have to figure a way to optimize each pair? Don't know if I want any improvements on this ea. Will keep u informed....Dan

You can try downloading through a different browser. I have been having trouble with my firefox lately and am using Flock and IE more the last two weeks. Just cant get firefox to download some things.

It is important to read this information. It will explain why certain pairs dont retrace this time of the year and you may just enter a trade and follow the trend.

If you look at previous years in most pairs there is some kind of a retracement in December.

Dan,

These settings may be much safer especially for GBP pairs, though producing fewer trades. Well TP of 63 is bit high for other pairs, may be. TP of 35 was ideal but not suited for Live trading unless you have a large account.
I too felt H1 is ideal, but with H4, we may have to either different buffer say 60 or 80, instead of chaning the TP. You can also change the MA to 20.
Nothing much tinker around here, optimizing for each pair may require changing TP or TF a bit and visual back tesing should suffice. Good that you are testing many pairs so that we can leave out few that hardly produce any trades. My idea is to use differenting settings on the same pair.
Use majors, AUDJPY, AUDUSD or even EURJPY should be enough.
Bob has done a lot of work on suitability of all pairs, I need to study that in depth.
Keep your updates coming..
