Dear SteveHopwood
I'm new of this forum, sorry for my English,
I'm not a programmer, but I need someone to make an EA expert about of my strategies that I think this strategies wins forever for many pairs , I put here my pdf file it will say what I whant mean.
I'd like your opinion
Thanks a lot
Just skimmed you pdf. Looks like fibonacci, doesn't work long term, will blow you account.

Why are you highjacking someone else's thread with a sh!t system.

Put it in the recyle bin or the programming section.

I am, but he is anyway. I don't mind someone asking once, but twice smacks of nagging.

Granted, I need nagging sometimes. Not for stuff like this, though.

check if your account allows 0.01 of a lot trade. some accounts minimum is 0.1 hence the error code.

Yes, it allows microlots. I used the previous version on the same account and it did open trades.

Anyone out there testing the new version and having trades being opened?

Pending orders throw up invalid stop errors if the entry price is unacceptable.

The latest version in post 1 has more informative info in the alert.

I expect the attached trade to fail. By the time the pending trade filled, the channel was already starting to move against it. It looks as though a life-span of 4 hours is too long.

I have gone to the opposite extreme and reduced this to 30 minutes.

Do you mean working on a M30 chart instead of the H4, and still using the M15 200 SMA?

Just a suggestion: why not leave the original EA with the "<" bug fixed, with the order placing as it was? The rationale behind this is that if the first EA gave such awful results (I had a winning ratio of around 20%), by just inverting the trades it should have given a winning ratio of 80%, with the proper spread adjustments...

By the way, the error(3) problem persists...
