DislikedGo markets require EA's to send SL and TP separately to the buy sell. Thats what the ECN settings do on most EA'sIgnored
Disliked"When you attach the EA to the chart, what do you see in the upper left corner?"
Hi Ronald,
I changed sourcode from "Reject" to "Accept." In the upper left corner I see the initials "RR" on one currency pair, and I see lines of data pertaining to the EA on the other currency pairs. Each pair has a frowny face, however.

DislikedI use the latest version on GoMarkets (Demo) without problems.
The only setting I had to change from default was ECN = true, and of course accept the agreement.
I have applied it to the 1min chart & hold down the Home key until I get 2 months worth of data (takes forever). Then change the bars used setting to 57600 (ie. 8 weeks) as thats all I'm interested in optimising for (at this stage).Ignored
DislikedI'm in Orlando, FL at Walt Disney World at the moment, and I can't get to my trading platforms or programming computer at the moment (be back August 1), so this is off the top of my head.
The short answer:
Is it possible? Yes. By me? No

DislikedBased on peoples experience with this EA...are the default settings the best or has anyone come up with some really good settings?Ignored
DislikedPretty sure there are quite a few of us still hammering away at trying various settings. I would think the more people that tinker the better.
Default settings will get you going and familiar with it, some values appear to not be fully working such as optimizing based on anything other than winrate. You can still try diff SL and TP, trailing stops, reversing etc.
This thread is still pretty low on the page count at the moment, I would recommend reading through it.Ignored
DislikedI can also imagine that some pairs are more unpredictible then others so a point could be made for a quest to find the most suitable pairs or different settings for different pairs. This is where the intensive use of resources come in for me. I run my mt4 on a vps and it can only handle 2 of these before it grinds to a halt. So far though, I have found USDJPY to do best out of the few pairs I've tried for the short period that I've tested them.Ignored
Disliked"I just started using the EA this week...so far up 30% for the week...was up 80% after Tues but have given most of it back since Tuesday. Had a bad run of 27 losing trades in a row last night."
-- For the string of 27 losing trades, can we isolate what caused this, and guard against it in the future? What do you think caused this string of loses?
