Alpari UK Live Classic with V15: +22, +50, +44.1

Great result

Only thing is that after TP2 was hit I manually set a 15 TSL on the third trade. I could not remember what was said about the 3rd order TSL and I felt there were too many pips to leave on the table (65+pips). Otherwise I think it would have hit TP this morning.

Can someone remind me what the EA is supposed to do with the third TSL please?
The third order does not trail the stop, you either make 10 pips or 80 pips!

Today you could have made +22, +50, +80!

My appologies Geoff for not letting it run as I have always done . That's the problem of being awake and watching it at 3AM


Thanks Geoff.

No problem, you still made over 100 pips, that is all that matters!

It may be worth pointing out that we are now well into the holiday period which
lasts through to the end of August.

I don't know how this will effect the price action as we were not around during
this period last year but, no doubt, it will have some effect!

Our hard working bankers need the time off to spend their bonuses on five star
holidays so they can get back to ruining the world with renewed vigour in
September, they have targets to meet you know!

So, do you suggest to switch the EA off until September?

I've attached this EA to the GBPUSD 4H chart with the following backtested results since 1.1.09

This EA is obviously optimised for the period after 2009.

Need to be careful with optimisations, can give false impression of profitability.

Anyway there it is.

Short Trade triggered this morning.
Hello Musashi, pls which EA's test results do you have in your mt4 stats.Thanks for your anticipated response.

Just one EA which has made two set of trades, which is this one.

The rest of the trades are my experience as a trader.

I ran this for you on tickdata (since I already had it processed and platform was free for backtesting). It stops at 6/11/10 because I havent reconverted new tick data since then and don't feel like going thru the hassle of doing so.
Do with it what u will
Hi Tazmaan.

Great thanks for your help.
I appreciate that and sorry I was off for a while.
It isn't looks good for now and required more optimization I hope.

Well this is what I awoke to this morning on Alpari UK Live. Three thumbs up and +152 pips - it doesn't get any better than this

For those on other brokers who did not get a trade, it would be interesting to see what your 5min charts look like compared to mine.

Dear Piptician.

Could you tell me please, your iTSLoffset, fast&slow sma set and St_Time, which are probably default , I think.

Thanks in advance.

I don't get it how everyone making pips when I got

no Trigger on ECN nor IBFX. Strange Entry rules.. One get

trigger the other doesn't? I don't understand that.

That's from ATC:

"
2010.07.11 19:30:00 Tokyo_GBPUSD_H1_v15 GBPUSD,M5: 15min FRACTAL_UPTREND : 2010.07.11 19:00
2010.07.11 19:00:04 Tokyo_GBPUSD_H1_v15 GBPUSD,M5: 15min FRACTAL_UPTREND : 2010.07.11 18:15
2010.07.11 19:00:04 Tokyo_GBPUSD_H1_v15 GBPUSD,M5: 15min FRACTAL_DOWNTREND : 2010.07.11 17:30
"

And that means NO TRADE?

Should EA look for 17:30 fractal at all? (Assuming 19:00 = 23 GMT)

Also, how come everybody got SHORT while 2 last fractals showing uptrend?

Cause, actually LONG would also work last night, but hit target even faster than Sell.

Where was your trailing STOP? After 2nd target hit on your Chart

there was huge bounce back, before target 3....

I would say good morning but it is 12:35 now, so, good afternoon Sky at first.

I'm not sure I've got your point.
There is #3SL modified at 1.51438 level after TP1 reached and since that I can't see any huge bounce back- I'm sorry.
You can also do back test this time point on your screen and see what happened with your broker.

Best Regards.
