Count me in stratman. I've been meaning to sign up with Dukascopy for a while - and after Friday's debacle with Oanda, where their servers went down for a good hour and a half, my mind has been made up. Now to go and get al of this documentation filled out and stamped and posted!

Also, I know you've been very busy programming for the Dukas platform, but I wonder if there's any chance you could start posting your daily outlook to the trading room on the pipware forum once more? I think it really helped the newer traders, and it was also very useful to confirm that I was seeing the same things as you.

As for your concerns over an EA - while it's possible that a very large number of traders would change its efficacy, it's also possible that there might be a synergistic effect, whereby the market gets pushed in the correct direction due to increased buying/selling pressure by those using the EA. Especially if the entries are at key pullback points, a strong burst in the direction of the trend would signal to others that the trend is continuing and to hop on for the ride. Just a thought.

Hi Bart,

the IA number is 1829 and I use my name Rob ie Rob Lorimer. This link to dukas has the IA as part of the URL: www.dukascopy.com/ibentry.php?ibref=1829

One of the things I'm concerned about is how many people will use my EA ... like if I have too many, it may become ineffective? Will I have to limit how many people I am agent for? etc

There didn't seem to be much discussion on what I was posting so thought that people might not be using it ... I'll try again.

Ah, it did seem a little quiet at the start. There seem to be a few more people poking around in there now though, so hopefully there will be some more interest. Thanks stratman.

I see Dukascopy has a MT4 platform in beta test. Why convert everything to JForex, if those who want to take up your offer can merely move to Dukascopy MT4? It avoids a big learning curve for all of us who are familiar with MT4 and would avoid a big investment of programming time for you.
Support,

If MT4 is one of the trading platform at Dukascopy, I probable will join Rob's team as win/win, and I have no more patience to learn another one.

Unfortunately, BuidCity, MT4 platform is available from Dukascopy, but only for demo trading. Thay still didn't adjust it to trade live accounts. :-|
Sorry to bring you bad news...
JForex platform is not that bad thogh. You will get used to it. :-)

Interesting piece of work, thanks for the free videos. I'll try and take a look at your products and see where it can help me. You seems to be pretty well accepted here.

It would appear, from my demo account with Dukescopy, that one can trade the same account from both the MT4 and JForex platforms. This means we can use the pipware dashboard, mini charts and other familiar indicators (THV, Cavemanager trade management EA, etc)on MT4 and run Stratman's EA on JForex (when it is profitable).

Can't reisist this .. Do you want 46% Commissions Return?

My goal has always been to help others become successful traders at the smallest possible cost. Even though I sell my dashboard, sales don't come anywhere near covering my teaching/programming. I have a new idea that will hopefully help you and help me ie a win/win scenario.

I have shown that, trading manually, I can consistently make a target of 2.4% equity increase per day. Why was 2.4% chosen? Over 100 trading days, compounding 2.4% results in increasing account equity by 10...

Count me in - I have not been usng the dashboard for a long time now though.

Hey, haven't read through the thread in sometime.

You probably already know about this, but I heard there is a bridge available for connecting metatrader to dukascopy. Obviously, the feeds may be a bit different.. not sure how reliable it is.


Quoting stratman
All good points. We will discuss more on the other forum when things start moving forward. I have so much to do eg conversion of indicators to JForex etc.

Yes you can trade from your MT4 platform and the trades will open and close on your Dukascopy account.

Now, I'm doing the opposite. I trade from Dukascopy Jforex and send the signals into my Metatrader accounts ;-) Custom Bridge. with help from an MT4 api Script.


The advantage of the Mt4-> dukascopy is that you can use all your Cool source coded MQL while not having to recode in JAVA. open source java products are finally coming out as Dukascopy has Trade contests where they hand out the open source of the Top finalists.. I think this is the coolest thing since sliced bread.

Not starting a war here (i hope) and I realize that this is an old post and the indicator is not for sale, but I feel that we should respect the programmers wishes in the same way that we respect stratman and do not give his work away for free

you could have easily posted the forum link, then a simple search would find the said indicator

On work computer, so no screen capture software, will post as file, as a test.

Question, anyone else seeing RED today? Too busy trading I expect.... where will it all end; on nightshift, so I missed all those easy Asian BO trades to the downside....

OK, that pdf file worked, now, any pipware or THV traders here? I read that whole thread and this one also, and I didn't really see any mention of the Pivot indicator they include in the system. And there was not much discussion about it either; no where did it explain what the lettering on the chart meant.

I had it on my charts, but to me the levels were way to far away. On this chart screen shot you will see the Pivots I am used to seeing.

Today was a big day, so if anyone using the other Pivot, feel free to post a chart. On this example, you can see where price dropped right thru S1, reacted at S2 for awhile, dropped to S3, bounced back almost to S2, then down to S3 again.

Most of the currencies have exceeded the ADR already and still 5 hours left in USA session, interesting to see if they go into holding pattern for now, then see the Asian reaction to the Korean situation !!!

The pivot indicator is a little tricky to get right. It calculates pivots on the previous 24 hr period. The tricky part is to determine what the 24 hr period should be. Typically there are two main 24hr periods eg

New York 5pm to 5pm (good for trading Asian Session)

London midnight to midnight (good for London Session)

Problem with a lot of pivot indicators is the reliance on daily candle High, Low and Close. Brokers don't use a consistent daily candle beginning and end time so the calculated pivots will be different between brokers.

If you want more info, a video I made on youtube may help:

stratman,

I can see that you have done plenty of research and number crunching into these Pivots, so I thought I better have a closer look.

Turns out, both the indicators return the exact same levels! I believe that I said that the levels seemed too far away, guess I will watch PA for awhile longer.

But I stand by my statement that there was not much discussion about Pivot levels in the THV thread.

Here is a screen shot with both indicators applied.

Many thanks, John
