ps i got finaly latest steves update to work i think as i want it , it will be good once volume reflects buyers sellers volume

then i think the ea will be getting there

I THINK ONCE THE VOL IS FIXED IN STEVES EA IT WILL BE A BIG LEAP FORWOOD

Quoting getting
I maybe wrong, but current main concern related EA is that when for example the EA takes long trade on AU, but the "offline basket" volume isn't necessary has buy volume grater than sell volume. I think i'll be focusing on this discrepancy this week while manual trades. maybe it isn't possible for each EA(in each chart) to consult with "offline basket volume indi" before taking trade on an individual pair.

Hehe. I asked for help last night and all I got ...Granted, there are a few words with > 1 syllable in there, but I tried to keep it short and to the point...I am using the ea, after all and highly successfully as a signals generator. Actually, that isn't quite true; I am using a modified version of it as a signals generator; the trades I am entering via a script and managing manually as a scalper, but that is a different matter...
Hi Steve

Sorry I truely love to be able to help but I have not got a clue. Please bear in mind I am a retail forex trader and as such are not very gifted in the IQ department, therefore, please avoid using words > syllable.

You have told us that with every EA you create you have a better grasp of forex market / trading. This fact coupled with your scalp trades shows that this project / thread has not been a waste of time. Maybe we can use this EA as a pure scalper. I would therefore be grateful if any traders who have been using this EA for scalping to let us know what their results and settings are. We know the EA works, we need to find the optimum settings for it.

Kind Regards

I just received an email from whip with the version of the ea he uses - whip can edit his own inputs (hint hint to those of you still unable to do this for yourselves)

He hqs both the D1 and W1 filters turned on, which I thought would have killed auto-trading stone dead. Clearly not.

| still have no idea why having them both turned off stops trding, but it looks as though having at least one of them turned on is essential.

One for whip. My wife has the telly on, and there has just been an advert playing that featured the music from a late 1960's series "Rawhide". dum dum dum dum dum dum, dum dum dum dum dum dum, keep them dawies rolling, rawhide"

Suddenly, I have gratuated from feeling Slightly Dated to Ancient Monument.

I was in a grump last night.

Fact is, a reasonably intelligent monkey could code mql4. It really is that easy.

What to code is entirely different. The algorithm (coding logic, or stuff to code) drives me nuts. I am a pianist, not a systems designer and get frustrated sometimes. About twice a day, on average; you lot just don't see most of my grumps.

Hissy fits just come with the territory. Sorry.

Hint well taken. My limit is changing the settings in meta editor and occasional cut&Paste. I would be grateful if whip could let us have the settings he is using or his version of the EA.

You are not that old for knowing rawhide. I am 48 years old and I recall watching it with young clint eastwood starring. Whip must have just started school at the time.

Doesn't the 336 setting make lsma look back much further, and so slow its rate of change?

336 is the 15 minute equivalent of 21 4 hour

its what i use on a 15 minute chart 336 is 15 minutes

21 is 4 hour so on one 15min frame i can see both time frames of equiv of 21


also i think volatility settting needs to reflect now im not sure how its coded but should be 15 max in my opinion or 5

i havnt tested it but just an observation as volatility is now the reason for 5 is to take in crims data feed change over delays games

eg watch tick seperated volume change over data or watch mt4 bottom left kb rates

my opinion only

i dont understand coding but i do understand indicator calcs for different time frames so 21 is good for 4 hour the equivalent for 15 minutes is 336

Steve, Squalou and other coders:

I have a version and settings of the Brijon EA that are working well. However, having spent much of the weekend reading his Amazing 3mw thread, I would like to try to help develop his system of trading around the basket of trades with what I call "overload trades". I will spend a few weeks trading manually what he is doing now. By no means do I think it is too complicated to code, but some discretion values need to be determined, and the best way to do that is by manually trading the system.

The core of the new version of the system will require a user defined basket of equal long and shorts. Minimum 4 pairs, maximum 8, i would default to 7. The basket needs to be handled as a distinct section of the program. The MPTM functions of each unit of the basket should be set at TS 3 and TP 100. However the basket must re balance itself when trades are closed. This is the core. The basket needs to have its own TP level and its own DD closure level where it will the reset itself. Ideally TP will immediately reopen the box, and DD will reopen the next trading day.

I will continue to explain how to "tilt" the basket long or short provided someone is interested it coding this. I think I can explain it well right now with preliminary discretion values.

All I am trying to do is to synthesize the concept already provided but which can be confusing to read and work through.

If nobody is interested, that is ok, I will get it coded regardless.

Cheers to all.

Hi Mike

I have not got as far as coding is concerned. However, as you can see from the sheer size of this thread and the work Steve has put in there is huge interest. It seems you have grasp the concept and as you mentioned it can be very confusing to read and work through. Unfortunately, Brian is off to europe and as such he has not got much time. If you could be kind enough to undertake the mamoth task you have mentioned above we will all be very grateful to you. Moreover, as you can see from the post above Steve will code it.

Kind regards

If anyone wants to practice with Brijon's game trade mode video, particularly after the 30 day trial period provided by the Camtasia Studio program, all you have to do is convert the video file to a format that you can view from generic media players. Just right-click the brijon*.camrec file in the upper left quadrant, click on "Extract camrec contents," then choose the folder you want to save the file to and you will end up with a .avi file you can use as long as you want. Works like a champ.
