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

Hey Kosomolate,

Welcome to the test team.

If this week goes well, the live version will be posted next week.

BTW, where is your demo www.mt4i.com statement ?

Thanks,

I have put most of the set files from post 1 on a demo and tweaked them a little so we will see how this runs. I will post a link to the account soon. Some small trades already taken on EURGBP in the +, so this is a nice start. Thanks for the hard work, guys.

Hi Getdown71 et al,
Last week I said that V1.03 was better for all pairs except EURJPY.
Well having checked results with GoMarkets I retract that staement. V1.03 is better for EJ as well. Just shows how different feeds and data can make the world of difference.
I agree that next step is penny account live and see how it goes.

I have also been doing a 'shed' load of testing with different inputs etc.
I can honestly say now that I take my hat off to you and the SSS team because I realise just how much work it takes to get a optimised set for any one pair. Great work!
I will continue to test inputs just in case I hit a good one (and because it's a challenge!) but at present V1.03 wins hands down in my book.
Amazing stuff ...

Strange thing happened last night 12am, all trades closed out at 770 pips loss.
Could that be a SL kicking in or some time limitation on 1.02?

I don't think this was asked already, but I think there is an error in the GMT offset calculations. I am using the MBTrading demo account, and I believe the GMT offset should be -4, but the SSS v1.03 calculates it as -3. Before DST, it was -5.

Does anyone else see this issue? For now I just manually set it to -4.

Thanks.

Hi rolleddice,

There has been a time bug identified for Sunday evening open for AutoGMT time calculation - this has been resolved for v1.04 which will be released as a live account enabled version this weekend.

I think the issue may be that the chart print for GMTOffset does not update correctly - however I think EA is still working correctly as the server time chart print shows 100% correctly.

See attachment - perhaps similar to your issue. (these 2 pairs have identical time settings)

xux99 FYI - please advise.

Thanks,

Hi Getdown

Do You still use MPTM for exit?

One more question: If autogmtoffset=true...it doesnt matter what manualgmtoffset=, is that correct?

Best wishes

Hi Elovv,

I'm not using MPTM for TP/SL anymore. With the recent optimizations of over 10 pairs the drawdown is under control and that was the main driver behind using MPTM in the first place.

Correct - manualgmtoffset is ignored if autogmtoffset=true. However during backtesting autogmtoffset does not work, so you must specify correct manualgmtoffset to obtain more real world aligned results.

Thanks,

Nick

P.S. Elovv have you setup your www.mt4i.com web link for demo testing yet

This a v1.03 error caused by a slight inaccuracy of local time. It has been solved in v1.04.

Hello all,
Just got her set up on 5 pairs 30 min EuroUSD, GBPUSD, EURJPY,GBPJPY, EURGBP. running OOTB with .1 lots on a 3k mini Demo with IBFX. I will keep you posted with my results.

Very nice looking BOT! Obviously you are going commercial with this when you prove it is profitable and tweak it, will the people who helped test get a discount?

Just wondering cuz some of us dont have a ton of Cash, If I have offended you I appologize I would just hate to get all excited about the system and then not be able to afford it.

Thanks again
Jim
