Quoting danel
Hello everyone.
I have backtested v3 and noticed when you put the gmt offset to 1 and the start time to 23 the there will be more false trades.
I tried this because alpari is gmt +1.
But when you turn in back to 2 its all ok.
Am I missing something? its quite confusing.
Or when I change the offset do I have to change the start time?

Best wishes,

Danel.
alpari uk is +2.

Hello Guys,

I'm trying to get the EA working on FXCM MT4.

I tried to change the offset to +1 on the EA settings, but it keeps returning the value to 2.

Any ideas?

YO Geoff,
Just out of the curiosity on the entry. Once we have 10 and 197 in same direction at appropriate hours, tell me a bit about the fractal entry.
EA looks for a 3 or 5 bar fractal to form on 15, then a subsequent fractal on the 5 and enter on that close?

Thinking of applying to other markets if I get bored

TOTAL 52 pips

took 43 min to finish, GREAT

Good start for me, still demo of course, as it should be when you test something unknown to you.

i have entered 20.0 in irisk percent and set vhigh_risk to true

on the display.. it shows 2% instead of 20%

hhmm..

also.. may i ask.. now i set it 200.. meaning 20%.. it shows orderlots 0.14.. will this be divided to 3? or the 3 trades will use 0.14 each?

thanks!

I got 22, 15 and 11 pips on my live account going a very small % (1%) of my account total. My trades were opened right at 23:00.

On the demo, I forgot to change the GMT offset from 2 to 0, and I'll be darned if the demo didn't also have wins on all three trades that were made 2 and a half hours later!! Those trades hit for 22, 20 and 10 pips.

Absolutely FANTASTIC job on this EA and system, Geoff. I can almost guarantee that this thread will be buzzing like a beehive in the next few weeks. You just wait.

For those that didn't get trades placed, I'm using IBFX

Don't want to be the party pooper, but I have seen in time that nice functioning threads go down the drain when the crowd gets the smell of it.

Lots of dumb and lazy folks will show up with questions that are easily answered if they would just have taken the time to learn the babypips school classes.

Let's hope we keep a hard working focused team here.

Congrats to Geoff and thanks to Sanyhuis for inviting me.

Missed today's trade (had to go to work http://cdn.forexfactory.com/images/icons/icon8.gif ) but live results continue to be very good.

Will consider using it on real account in a few more weeks.
What you do is a reflection of you....what I do is a reflection of me.
