wasn't able to get much better with 1.02 either if i recall.
broker is gomarket, i trade them live and the demo acts pretty close to the live platform in comparison, so I try to use go demo as much as possible for testing.

Hi Reachjj,


I don't think a reasonable assessment of performance can established after 1 day!

Come back in a week or two - then will have some real results to mine and review some initial findings.

FYI v1.03 presets are almost identical to v1.02. (only ATR for TP & SL have been tweaked mildy to limit drawdown)

Do you have a www.mt4i.com web link setup for you demo ?

Thanks,

Firstly I can't emphasize enough the words appreciation and admiration for getdown and xux for sharing their work.

True greatness lies beneath the action of sharing this EA and not if the EA itself is profitable.
I have a demo running v.103 since yesterday for all 8 pairs and I am going to post the results pretty soon.
Being studying forex for the last year and FF for the last six months so that makes me a newbie to this arena.
Thank you again for your work it looks extremely promising.

my 1.03 demo havent traded a single one..
I have been running it since Monday, EurUsd has not traded but GbpJpy has done quite few trades and I am am in profit.

Have not changed any settings yet but is it normal for it to not stop out?

When you say stop out, you mean exit a trade ? if Yes, this is correct operation as partial TP (34%/33%/33% of main entry) via ATR is enabled.

If you mean SL - this is done via ATR also PLUS via indicators.

You can get details on this if you read manual and review my settings file.

What broker and what GMT offset are you using ? (auto setting enabled plus manual GMT number)

I assume your using the set files in post 1 ?

Do you have www.mt4i.com web link setup as requested in post 1 ? This will better help to review/compare performance across different brokers.

Thanks,

Sorry I have set up the account for mt41 but figured i was only running the standard setup and did not want to load you down with the same data.

I now have 1 trade on the GBPJPY30M that is 2 cents against me, is this normal behavior or have I missed something?

I have been running back tests comparing presets V1.02 to V1.03.
Have found V1.03 to be much better (from 10% to 200% better ROI) for all pairs except EURJPY. So am currently running V1.03 on all except EJ which is V1.02 or course.
For period 1/1/2010 to 20/3/2010 only EURUSD, EURCHF and USDCHF were negative ... others nicely in profit.
Will try tinkering with these presets to get better results.

Hi GD71,
Demo broker was Forex FS and downloaded data via Metaquotes Software corp. Just the standard download procedure thru History Centre using F2 key.
Gunna try now with GoMarkets too now - 'cause that's who I'll use for live ...if... soon......?

Hi Getdown,

Dates that you MUST USE for backtesting are is 2008.01.26 to 2010.01.26. No other dates periods will be reviewed otherwise.

may i ask why? just hope it's not because the ea doesn't work outside those dates...

Hi All,

I have created a demo account on Alpari UK and put the EA on the following charts (all M30): EURGBP, EURJPY, EURUSD, GBPJPY, GBPUSD and USDCHF.

I am using 1.03 presets from post 1.

The results can be seen on http://www.mt4i.com/users/sss_ea_v103_zkucera. So far, there was only one open trade.

I will let it run without MTPM and post an update in few days.

Hi Getdown71
Been testing a couple of weeks now, SS 1.02 with the wilko_sss_v1.02_gbpusd_m30 set.

I used the set on the 6 Majors and all show a profitI have it mixed in with another 2 EAs but can sort it out on to an Excel should you need it.
What I like about it is the very low DD
The question I have is when can we go live?,,,,,,,, I’m ready

Hi,

Does anybody got good scalping settings (M5) with low DD with this EA.

I am still struggling to find one..

just wanted to thank the creators of this thread and the creator of the EA. i have been testing demo on all 8 pairs at atc brokers and it is doing very well with the 30 min presets in post 1. very low drawdown as well. this might be first ea i would have the confidence of going live with.

Hi Richie,

Glad to hear testing is going well and welcome to the test team. Could you please publish your demo results using www.mt4i.com so we may compare results across different brokers.

What version are you using ?

Thanks,

its time to pitch DEMO vs LIVE results. We have seen good performance with demo I think its time for MICRO LIVE accounts tests.

some of us are ready to commit small live accounts to this venture, if getdown77 will agree, the EA has passed the first lap of the test. I think we should test drive it now with REAL money and see how it goes.

lets see how we get around those little tricks played by the brokers
