Oh and I just noticed this. Shouldn't recovery have kicked in already? Or is it waiting for the close price of the candle?

Hey Steve, I've been noticing that with using white line closure = true, it will often close pairs that had been ranging for a few days as soon as it hit a couple of pips profit. That is a jolly nice and everything since it usually runs out of steam on the retrace but is there a way you could include the swap cost in before accounting it as "profit" so that we aren't losing a couple of pips here and there due to swap costs?

I do not know if it is good idea to you use a system which is developed for forex to trade commodities. Some experts predict gold to rise even further. I am considering placing some spread bets on higher GOLD and SILVER. For your information SILVER has had a bigger increase percentage wise than GOLD.
Kind regards
as well. After all no harm done and we get to to know its potential.
1 profitable trade and now another trade. We'll see if it is trading profitably or not.
Moreover Gold is only one of many pairs I've put it on, but so far it likes Gold only.
Maybe Steve should give it some nice female name as it likes gold best of all the pairs.

i'm probably gonna get persecuted for asking this, but i'll give it a shot anyway.
I am totally aware of this system being used on a 4H time frame and I have been using it on a 4H time frame on a demo account. I thought i'd give the 15 min time frame a shot today - visually, it seems fine. However, when I changed the time frame to 15 and left it for a few hours on demo, it has opened up some trades where the rules would not really apply.
My question is: If i change the time frame, does the something in the code also need to change? Perhaps...
Sorry. Only teasing.
As is, NB uses the code from Bob's #x ea's in the trade triggering process. All I did with the #x ea's was tidy them up and remove all the unwanted stuff left over from when he adapted an old trading ea for his purposes. Bob's ea's are hard-coded to work of H4 charts, regardless of the tf they are pulled onto.
There is a very good reason for this; his strategy works on the H4 tf and fails on others. That is no reason why you should not play if you want to, so the attached should work on any time frame of your choice.
Have fun.

anyone have max's v52 ea running successfully so far this week?
mine is trying to trade, but every trade gets it's tp set to entry price soon after its opened, so it's kinda pointless at the moment

Hmm, I thought with useScoob's the red line macd was suppose to be ignored then? Or am I so confused I should just shut up and enter it manually?
I am not entirely sure you understand the Recovery system. Might I respectfully suggest you go back to Bob's thread and read about it? Then take some time to practice it, perhaps using vHands as I did?
I am not going to discuss it with you here, so don't bother asking. I do not go into detail in the user guide.
People are supposed to understand the trading system in its entirety before using the robots here - well mine, anyhow. In the absence of this understanding, people cannot use the robot.
I thought I made this clear. Perhaps I need some nasty big red lettered stuff in post 1?
