Hi,

this is my first post. i downloaded the EA today and tried to run a back test, but it seems that since May 19 2010 - June 10 2010, there wasn't any trades executed, can i confirm this?

on top of that, i understand from this thread and other (Simple 3 Order GBPUSD EA) different broker will have different outcome from the EA, i am currently with FXCM UK, anyone has experience with them when using this EA?

Thank you.

Jay
i was juz wondering if my original post was overlooked?

Thank you.

I haven't taken particular notice but it has happened a couple of times in
the past fortnight!
Isn't it possible also to leave it simple and increase lots to make up for it?

It might be achieved by adding another EA and set it to one trade, while the other has 2-3 trades. Though, if this can be implemented it will be great for performance reasons.

It would need to be done in one EA otherwise bothe EAs may fire and that is probably not what you want (potentially 4 open positions)

Actually, I was thinking about 1+2.

I checked it now, you're right. FXpro is 3.00 by the way.
That 1:00 which was preset fooled me a bit.
I just checked with FXDD... Tokyo start time is 00:00 with GMT offset of 3.

We don't have very many trading with FXCM. I used to but not with this EA. There might be some one watching that would be able to answer you. We mostly do Alpari UK and IBFX with several others thrown in. So I think you might have to wait a bit for your answer. I'm sorry......

You didn't read the thread, - that's what's wrong.

I post it about 20 times and we all know, that EA (Method) works from

2009.. If you want to use it in 2000, you should run optimization and

find suitable settings.. EA works at present Market conditions only,

which could be change any moment as well.. So? Stay focus and don't

lose your last pants, betting too much (more than you can afford to

lose).

If you'll read thru the thread, you'll see that it really doesn't matter to us. We're more interested in what's here today and over the last year. Anything before that is immaterial in our estimation. But it's up to you. If you're comfortable with it or not. I hope you will be.

Hi,

maybe you settings. I statet in post #4756, that DST is a problem.

U canīt use 1 preset for the whole year because the offset between GMT and your Broker (alpari for example) changes 2 times in the year (at 28.03. and 31.10.)

For every period you need a different offset.

Obviously don't trade it on 26/06/2003....
(just a joke o.k.)

I'll just re state what many already know,
There are no guarantees, No one wins every trade , no one..

I look at G/U each day before trade time. If I feel that a perspective trade is unwise I might at times intervene and turn off the EA for that trade.
So far it has only cost me missed gains but that is my decision and I am happy to live with it.

So? any trades taken yet? EA point for possible LONG position..

But as usual on chart it's temperately looks like a short.
