Robot no to is available in post 1. It is an extension to robot no 1, in that it uses the volatility stop that BS describes in chapter 10. Details in the systems zip file. This one will suit those of you who prefer a straight stop to hedging.
I have changed the name of robot no 1 to reflect more clearly the description of the system in BS's book. The name is all that has changed.

The man is a genius . I like all his ideas. I tried his 2 SMA MACD set up last night (01:00GMT) with EURGBP and GBPAUD, both produced results. Have a look at his web site, there are some videos with useful scalping strategies. His site http://www.bkforexadvisors.com/boriss-scalping-for-10-pips-per-day/ is well worth a visit.

If you carry on enjoying success with the 2 SMA MACD system, I will look at automating it.

Thanks for the link to the site. This will be well worth a few hours reading and watching videos.

So far I am monitoring USD, EUR, GBP JPY major pairs, using IBFX live penny account 7 trades of which 4 were winners and 3 losers. I will keep you updated as to how I get along.
for another resource google "forex book org", when visiting the site please pay attention to the following warning:

Hi Steve,
Just finished putting all 3 bots on brokers after spending last week reading, copying and pasting. Setup was very smooth. Using 7 pairs on each....Big 6 and the GJ. #1 on UK 4 digit crook, #'s 2 and 3 on USA 4 digit crooks. Looking forward to it!

Those ebooks make great reading, don't they?
Looking forward to your results. It would be brilliant if we could come up with something here to complement our Scoobs Original robot trading.

Steve, did you see the 5 minute momo? It seems promising, I've followed the setup and it seems to work quite well, and the SL's are quite specific.
My intention over the next few weeks is to automate the trading strategies from the two books, one by one; next up is the MACD Turn from BS's book. I have no objection whatsoever to going out of order if people here find a strategy is working well. Give it a few more days, then shout out if the strategy continues to work well. If this is so, I will automate it next.

HI
Thus far I have had 15 trades of which 10 were winners and 5 losers with the 2SMA MACD system. Although there were more setups available I did not have time on friday to do any live trades. His idea of closing half the position with modest TP and moving the SL on the other half to breakeven also seems quite good.
Will keep you posted.
Kind Regards.
Just so people know what I am planning, I have introduced a 'promising setups' section to post no 1.

Yep, looked at the setup and it seems simple to automate.

Can't really argue with a win:loss ratio of 2:1, can we? I will read the setup and automate this next...
Kind Regards

Thanks STEVE. I do not know 15 trades is enough to confirm a trend, but looking at other set ups the strategy seems to be sound. I stuck to the 1H chart as suggested.
Kind Regards
Can you load this onto a demo, please, and confirm that the robot is behaving correctly, or point out where it is not. I can usually do most of the debugging in strategy tester, but this is not sending any trades. I am not sure whether this is a fault with the tester, or with the robot.
Anybody else wanting to play with the robot, read the third trading system in BS & KL's book - 2 ma and macd combo. The attached template sets up the chart, then just add the robot.
