Scoobs...
If it is not a secret, can you tell me which broker you are using?
Retail = Alpari UK.

I dont want to get into a broker discussion, there are pros and cons with most of them.

My relationship with them is very good but this is probably because they know my background and I have over 100K in my live account.

I have only ever had 1 serious issue which they resolved to my benefit within 2 hours.

Scoobs.

Hi, Like you, I cannot wait the next week to see the bots working.
But this week-end will be nice to add some features to my bot.
Here is the equity / balance graph for friday.
Approx. 500 trades with the 5 modes, nice for further analysis.
Hi Max,

Thanks for posting your very interesting EA.

Is the panel showing the balance/equity graph, margin & lots histograms part of your EA, or this a stand alone application?

Have not yet had your EA up and running, but hope next week to give it a run.

Keep up the good work.

Cheers

Harar,
I tried to run a backtest on the Scooby 20Ma200MA rsi3 bot, but in the Journal of my MT4 there is a message that the indicator EconomicNews.ex4 cannot be found. Indeed, I don't have that indi installed. Where did you find it? Thanks for pointing me to it. best regards, Ludo

Steve,
In your post the 1st. 2 reliable EA s you have listed the 'original' and Scooby. Can you specify which Scooby? SMA or EMA?
Yesterday Scooby said EMA in the long run but now he has presented yen EA which I believe is the same one adapted to Jpy pairs only.
The reason I'm asking is I want to know if someone has tried out the SMA version and got good results.

Vinesh

Anybody? I'm ready to go live with 2 EAs, one each on 2 separate a/c.

Follow the links. You have to do this anyway to have the latest version.

That's great thanks - looks very useful.

I currently use an indi called AccountEquityAnalyzer but it is not very successful.

If a back test is a bad, forward can't be a good...
If a back test is a good, forward maybe can be a good....

Am I right?
Sorry I am just small retail, but I wont learn.

I must say that octomanoak's pdf (original BOJ basket) is a very well written organized user manual. Best I have come across at FF bar none.

Great work octoman, I would venture to say you must do things like this on a professional level..

Thank you for you effort.

Steve - your latest tweak combined with my existing optimized set file; Unbelievable - taming the Yen. I have reason to believe, Scoobs and you have outdone yourselves. This version will replace current version on forward test at fxbook link.

Can someone that has 90% history validate this EURUSD H1 result ?. (set file attached)
