This EA is based on a sound strategy. So even if the 10 and 197 moving averages don't head in the same direction before trading time, I MAY still place a manual trade like I did yesterday when the 10 and 16 moving averages were pointing in the same direction.

Yes, trading in the direction of the longer period ma is safer in the long term, but an occasional trade using this strategy against the longer trend is sometimes profitable as well....
These three moving averages have less than an hour to make up their minds in which direction they wish to aim. I'm patient. Could be another short this evening. Or maybe no trade at all. I'm live on forex.com/uk: the 16 and 197 are up, the 10 is down.
If nothing changes, nothing will change...

The time to judge the MAs are up already ( by end of the GMT22:00 bar) and we should know now if the first condition is satisfied or not.
If the arrows are not in the same direction, no trade will be coming and the first thumb will be down.

Ver15 IBFX demo -
2 blue arrows UP
2 Green thumbs up
1 red thumb down for now but will be turn green up when 5 min Fractal is formed.
50 more minutes to go before GMT0. Think likely a trade will trigger

IBFX demo long @ 1.50225 - 1 order set file

i'm trying to attach the EA to my demo account which is min 1 Lot per trade.
I've already tried changing the Lotsize and UserMaxLots to 1.0 from 0.1 but the smiley still doesn't appear.

I trade live ( I prefer to trade pennies rather than demos with fake money)

with IBFX and ATC (ecn brokeres)

still result about the same.. Since v15 has been issued no trades

triggered on any of them.

Thanks for posting the chart - I was hoping people would start doing this so that we can analyze why one broker trades and another does not.

I'm afraid slight differences between the highs/lows between brokers can make all the difference. For Alpari UK (Live) the 5min fractal formed 2 bars before the Tokyo open but for FxPro (demo) it formed at the Tokyo open which was too...
QQ All!

Can use futures? The price will be identical to all.

I was just wondering about this, and would like to ask the people who knows the backtest results of this EA. How much higher Average Profit per trade is possible if we don't move s/l to breakeven, instead moving it to slight loss. I don't mind having more slight losses if it would mean higher Average Profit Trade. Sorry if this appears to be a stupid question, I am a new to EAs and forex in general.

Hi

I am new to this thread so please be gentle with me I attached the latest EA to a 5m GBPUSD chart last night and loaded the 3 order .set file. This morning I had 2 blue arrows showing, 1 up & 1 down (next to each other) plus 3 red thumbs pointing down (again next to each other). The price did in fact head south during the night BUT no trades were opened, is this correct or have I missed something? I did not change any of the settings in the .set file and am demo trading with Alpari UK.

Thank you in advance to anyone kind enough to help

Good trading to all.

Kevin.
