Hi,
I am new to the forum and I must say I am really impressed with what I saw on this thread. I would like to test the EA and see what type of results I get.

Few Questions:

1. Does Steve's MTPM still need to be running to close trades in version 1.03 or is this feature built into the EA at this point?

2. Wilko - I am very impressed with your GBPUSD optimization you did with version 1. Have you had any similar success with versions 2 or 3? I noticed you made new .set files for version 2, but from what you said, they didn't quite perform the same - maybe I am not understanding correctly. I would really like to look into this more as it looked very successful.

getdown71, is there anyway I can still get a hold of version 1.01 simply to tests Wilko's original M5 set for GU? I am interested in seeing where/how it blew up and if there's any way it could be avoided.

Thanks in advance guys, and I hope to be working along with you all on this. I will setup am MT4i account soon to post data as well.

Andrew

I just checked FridayClose option and works properly. FridayCloseHour refers to GMT, so maybe it is set by mistake after the market closes.

getdown or xux:
I think there may be an issue with the fridayclosetrades function. I have it set to 2 (which should mean close all unprofitable positions on friday) yet in backtest I am seeing this doesnt happen. I have open trades for weeks with big dd that don't close until they manage to climb back up to profit.
Can you guys check this yourselves to make sure I am not missing something?
Thanks!

Well done Kaydara - building on Wilko's scalper strategy. What is the maximal drawdown ?

Could you try 2008 to 2010 if possible ?

Once finalized, please send thru set file once you rename it from .set to .txt

Kudos,

Nick

I'm getting a number of requests for a live version of SSS.

Schedule is as follows;

1) v1.03 will be released for testing - if that all goes well, there will be time limited live/demo release. (this is an attempt to thwart dodgy eBay scammers)
2) All live account users are encouraged to provide a mt4i.com or fxbook link to the account. If they wish to maintain some privacy on this, [understandably] they do not have to post and can send me the weblink/password. I will not share with 3rd parties. This is for live forward test information only.
3)...
i agree with the charity part..

i have been busy this week and havent continued with my testing.. but the live version would be a good thing.

EURUSD/GBPUSD/EURJPY/GBPJPY/EURGBP/EURCHF/EURAUD/USDCHF

I think 8 pairs is enough - on average the max drawdown is around 8%.

The DD for all will not occur simultaneously for all 8 pairs;

1) If you stick with my settings and MPTM

2) Don't use other EA's or manual trades on the account

3) There are many factors that are 8 - this must be lucky!

8 indeed is a lucky number.. (",)

Kaydara, can you post the set file you used for your test? I have been running tests all week on this m5 gu, but for my test period I am not able to get anything close to that without huge DD.
Tried to just tweak the one I have been playing with and turn hedging on, but no go.
post that set up and i'll work with it along with you this weekend/next week.

From what I thought, the only difference between 1.02 and 1.03 was the addition of the order open time input (which allows you to close any trade open for x minutes).
Am sure I'll be corrected if i'm wrong
