Nanningbob V5: Steve Hopwood's auto-trading robot

if anyone wants to see how it goes: I put on a demo Alpari -
EA MAXX V150_LS10 -
all as set defoult minus the initial batch running from 0.35 - deliberately forced to see how and if fails.
The base is 10000 euro.
Alpar all of the cross.

hello
Romano

Steve, don't know if you keep up with this thread anymore but was wondering any chance of incoorperating V6.0?

Max,tks for continuing to work on the EA. I have run a number of tests with v150 on EURUSD from 01/08/10 to 30/10/10 at 4hr and 1hr and it blows the account each time, runs ok on GBPUSD. Wil continue to test to see if I can optimise

Here's my result. I'm going live soon. Thanks Max.

Max 083 is now going to kill my account after very good start. After 2 weeks my account was +40% UP, but now AUDUSD and GBPJPY sells (with recovery) from last week are huge loosers.

I'm using Maxx v148 with Master EA.

Hi

I am running Steve`s EA as well as Max`s 71C modified by Arbinka. I have them set for the above GOLD line trades only. Thus far they are both running quite smoothly and despite the strong fundamental news the DD is quite low. This is despite the fact that the other EAs have entered high DD territory.

Kind Regards

Thanks for your feedback, althought you are running a version that have some bugs

I must thank you for such a great effort and epic EA you have produced. Mind you at times it scares me since I not quite aware what it is up to!!! I do follow the developments here and I am very much aware of the newer improved versions, however, I do find 71C modified by Arbinka to be quite stable and thus far it has worked very well. Therefore, I did not see a need to update it.

Kind Regards

Max, your version control is excellent... good work on the bot and on the software housekeeping.

Thank you for the advice, Point taken. Of course, as the creator of this most comprehensive and complex BOT I did not doubt your word at all. I will update to the latest version shortly. I have attached the results for max71c for the last 4 weeks. Almost everything is default, however, as far as the sixths indicator is concerned I have it set for above gold lines only.

I think I am not the only one who wonders how big this baby will get, I have a sneaking suspicion that even you are not sure Keep up the good work and thanks once again.

Kind Regards

maybe u can share Max`s 71C modified by Arbinka with us

It's been posted in the thread, just use the paperclip and find it.
Max, I don't suppose you are still testing 87d on a demo somewhere? Wasn't that the one you felt was the most promising? The upgrades after 87d I think you mentioned were not trading as much.

I would be very thankful if someone (or better still the same Max) could give some information in more on as correctly to use the following parameters of the Master EA v.18 and of the MAXX_v150_LS10:

- for Master EA:

UseProfitControl (which limit it checks?)
eiPercent (to thing it refers: to the Profit or at Exposure?)

- for MAXX_v150_LS10:

Closing by Global Profit (the limit as it is calculated?)
UseVolatitlyProtection
CheckCurrencyExposure (it limits him to make to know the exposure or does it intervene somehow?)
UseScoobsATRFilter.

This in how much, yesterday, the EA that I use with real coin has closed more times the open trades and I don't have well understands whether to have overcome the percentage of exposure or for other (use the parameters of the General Protection all "true" and the percentage "eiPercent" it is that of default (two).

Of the last closing that has notched part of the profit first realized, I have had the following messages:
2010.11.04 23:00:24 Master EA_018 GBPJPY,M5: Alert: CLAf-DD_Pct @ 0h0(0) EquityIncPct=0.97 DD_Pct=0.00

2010.11.04 23:00:21 Master EA_018 GBPJPY,M5: Alert: CLAf-DD_Pct @ 0h0(25) EquityIncPct=0.96 DD_Pct=-2.13

I think that the matters are of general interest and not only for the less experts as me.

Thank you and best regards.

About the 4 last posts :

- The baby have reduced a lot since the version 150, I rewrite the program core, much more simple and clean
- I have 3 demos : v133, v150 and v200
-v133 is the classic mode, 50 trades/day ,but there is some bugs remaining in 4H
- v150 is completly rewrited, I do not manage trades by TT or CT anymore, I manage them by Longs or Shorts
- v212 is the final step of the last developements, and optimised
From v150, the bot continue to open trades if we stay on the trend and the profit >0, for example, if the trend is up, we open long, and continue to open long when a (long) signal occurs if profitLong>0. Same for Shorts .We can have Longs Trades and Short Trades. Work a little like a hedge althought is't not a pure hedge, it open only if a signal occurs.
It close with ATR for single trades, BE for multi trades, profittarget and also master EA.

here is a picture of v200 trades yesterday. I run 19 pairs, LotInitial =0.15 (for a 50k account), all params = default

I will post v212 in few hours

Max, when you upload the latest version tonight could you also zip in all the current indicators needed for the chart. It's hard scrolling back 30~40 pages looking for the last time when you reuploaded it. thanks.

Here it is
My advice : rename the version I just realeased to "last version", like that every time I realease a new version, you only have to load it in editor and save as "last version" and compile it, it's then update in every charts.
- apply the tpl in every charts.
- open another chart (gy m15 for example) and apply master.tpl
That's all.
The 212 version is amazing please test it and may be there is some improvments to do in the ClosingByGlobalProfit code.

Here is a picture about the screen you should have
Normally I will be not here during one week, so enjoy

Thanks Max. I will do it now.
