I'm going to demo both FXDD and IBFX for the next 24 hours. Is it established that:

FXDD offset = 3
FXDD start time = 23

and

IBFX offset = 0
IBFX start time - 0

???
IBFX=GMT time so
offset=0, starttime=23 (starttime every brooker GMT23)

FXDD i dont know but what is FXDD time know (market watch)?

I've been trying to backtest with Forex.com for 3 days. The current one has been running for 1.5 hours and is only 1/3 finished. Not one has finished. I quit after an hour or two. Any suggestions? I've checked all dll's. Alpari works. Forex is not working. He works for Geoff. Maybe I should try IBFX but the spreads are bigger.

Hi Sandra
Have you set show_settings to false, this is the bottom entry in the EA options.

If you have that set to true it will take for ever!

Hi Geoff, I searched the forums but never got an answer to my question.

How do I disable the 2nd trade on the EA?

I'm happy with 22 pips.

thanks

When I opened my account with forex.com it would only test back to 1st January even when I downloaded the history file.

I emailed support and they changed the account to 5 digit, it was 4 digit, and they told me that the 5 digit setup would give me more data.

When I reloaded the history file it took ages, but since then it is very fast on back testing and I can easily go back 12 months at 90% modelling.

Has ver4 same tradeing condition as ver5a? Than its easy to optimize just one entry.

Maybee if You have time its a good idea to have all version in first post?

P.S Best starttime IBFX is 23.00, second 05.00, now optimizing SMA

V4 uses the same method but settings can be very different, with only one order the trailing stop is applied to the one order!

You are only allowed 7 attachments to a post so we could only have 3 EA's on post #1.

eh so V5 is the one with more profits but risker and V7 is the more stable one right?

and is there any diff between V6 and V5 other den the requote fix? don't have a copy of V5 anymore on my desktop

and on which page is EURUSD settings/EA? Getting flooded by the > 100 pages

Hi Zealvix,

just scrolling through the pages which I did not read so far as I am getting up here in the morning right now.
I changed Geoffs v5a for GBPUSD into EUR/USD and named it EURUSD v5a. Then I optimized it in Alpari UK demo version for all variables and came up with the following setup:
ema 20
s/l 65
GMT 0
GMT offset 0
start time 0
t/p1 28
t/p2 46
trailing s/l 28

This saved version you find in my post number 1640

Hope it helps and I would be glad for any feedback.
