Hello.
I´m bit confused here, my broker is Alpari gmt +2, do I have to change to start time to 01.00 then? Or it stays 23.00?

Best wishes

Danel.
The defaults are already set for Alpari UK, leave at +2 and 23!

Dear Geo,

Why did ur EA stop at 6 trades only? Is it that selective?

Yes, it decided to rest!

The conditions are very exacting and it will not trade unless everything
is just right which is good because when it does trade it will seldom
make a loss but it is a nuisance when it doesn't trade.

Over 12 months it will trade about 90 days.

Salutations fellow fxers.

Could someone please help me out here.
V4 has not managed to place a trade since I downloaded it on Monday.
I have not changed any settings other than magic number and comments( which did not save, every time I click on the Ea file it shows the defaults for these, camvcooV3 etc)
I had to download the V4exe file to get the normal version to open, so I have both versions.(deleted and reinstalled x2)
I have the smiley face.
Have set to allow dlls and live trading.
Using an Alpari Uk demo account to forward test (hopefully).
OS Windows 98
Exasperation setting in.I am begging here. Not dignified I know.Thanks

It hasn't traded for a week. It may tonight though. We are all hoping.
Make sure your GMT and start time are correct.

Yes, i do not believe I have had a trade this week, but I have also had no loses.

It looks like we could be setting up for 1st long since i joined thread..

I was thinking about this for a while and I wonder has anyone looked at obtaining a better price once the signal is given. Lets say that once the signal to trade is given you could always obtain a 5 pip better price. It might not sound much but it could be more than that.

Just wondering if anyones looked at this.


All the best

If you look at post #1 there is a pdf written by calstock that shows a very
good way to do exactly as you suggest.

I have looked at writing the code for it but I have not been successful yet!

EDIT:
Sorry, its in post #1 on the other thread!
You can download it here... Simple H1 manual trade.pdf

I got triggered @ 1.4560 long some 30 min ago.

Was not really expecting that and was in a broker's presentation.

With a thin market at the end of the week and also the month basically, this trade may take its time.

Those trades are not on the MT4Live account you show, right?

No those are from my DEMO account on my laptop. I run Ubuntu with Wine for my Alapri Accounts and I have Win 7 on laptop.
Also have not updated it in a while.

I got on at 1.4565 and hit the first lot at 14 pips (conservative setting), and remaining two positions were down quite a bit, but are making a comeback as I type. Only down 7 pips now.

OK

I am out of here, made enough pips for this week and as it is the end of the month, not planning to give a single pip back.

A retired Dutch banker once taught me this trick: DON'T TRADE ON FRIDAYS, it is where the smart asses often give back their winnings.

Wishing all a relaxed weekend and will inform the results of this position when it is finished.

UPDATE WITH RESULTS:

15 -10 -3 makes 28 pips profit (2nd trade ever taken so far)

3 longs on Alpari, in profit for now. Not sure if they hold. I was also surprised after the up'n down of yesterday to see the EA opening trades.
