Hey all, I have attached my version of Snowroller and Basketstats I am using, I have lost track on the different ones flying around so I decided to fire them up again for reference (maybe even for FXEZ

Demo account at Alpari UK : 1:500, ootb with T101 pairs all sell AND buy enabled, TP set to 100 (was 10), SL set to 2500 (was 250) and lotsize set zo 0.1 (was 0.01) ... nice to watch on a fine trending day. We'll see if it has legs, but another demo has survived NFP from last thursday on till now already nicely, too.

http://www.myfxbook.com/members/smee...-classic/99808

Pairs are :

ALL BUY AND SELL ENABLED ! (original T101 would say 1-7 sell 8-14 buy)

1. GBPUSD
2. EURGBP
3. GBPCHF
4. CHFJPY
5. AUDJPY
6. EURJPY
7. USDCHF
8. CADJPY
9. AUDUSD
10. USDJPY
11. EURUSD
12. EURCHF
13. GBPJPY
14 USDCAD

Please RENAME THE snowroller.txt TO snowroller.set

Hope you enjoy it as I do !

Your SlowRoller is trading too large. It should be trading 0.1 lots per $5000 balance. Change BalancePerlotsize to 5000.0 for SnowRoller. Classic looks good sizewise. You might consider using separate accounts for testing as they might not want to have the same trades on and it may be difficult to determine which is doing better. One account for SnowRoller, 1 (different) account for SnowRoller_Classic

I wanted to show you guys some eyecandy. Post #1 has been updated.

The curves are as follows:

IBFX 1 minute 13 symbols (the ones listed in the first post) on $50,000 account. Just for reference this one was down like $2k in equity due to positions entered before the latest change. I let it run and it worked its way out of a deep hole.

IBFX 1 minute 3 symbols (EURUSD, GBPUSD, AUDUSD) on $500 account

IBFX 5 minute 13 symbols (see first post for symbols) on $50,000 account

MIG 5 minute 13 symbols (see first post for symbols) on $5,000 account

Here are two shots using the Basket_Stats indicator to give more detail about the above curves and the underlying symbols. It's clear that the 5 min (so far) is the best performer though the 1 minute has made a big comeback (recovering 2.5K worth of equity while I was sleeping).

Shot 1 (left) is taken from the IBFX ($50,000 account) using a 1 minute timeframe on the symbols shown. This picture lines up with the first curve in my previous post.

Shot 2 (right) is taken from the MIG ($5,000 account) using 5 minutes on the symbols shown. This picture lines up with the last curve in my previous post.

The IBFX 5 Minute results (curve 3 in previous post) look very similar to the MIG shot shown below and to the right.

Welcome! So far it looks like the 5 minute time frame is best. Higher time frames like 15, 60 should also work though haven't been tested. The time frame determines how many trades can be placed. If you are concerned about margin usage from your tests, try a higher time frame. Snow Roller limits trading to one trade per bar when the buysellstep has been equaled or surpassed. If you have any questions let me know.

Hi all,

FXEZ, better if you add a version var to the top of the EA code, so it'll be easy to trace with witch version we are doing the tests.

Best regards

Hi all ... we should lookup to avoid this situation, were we end with 4 orders on the same level, I mean ... in this demo account, SR opened orders at 87.04, 87.05, 87.09, 87.11 (twice), 87.12 (twice again).
Because if hogs free margin doing so.

Best regards

My demo gave all the wins and more away overnight ... I have taken it offline. I am going to update SnowRoller to the latest version and restart, but with a lot more pipstep I guess.

Why EA open more position on the same pair if they are stil open and negative?

Hi FXEZ and everyone,

First of all, thank for starting this thread and for your work with this EA. I want to share 2 tests that I have started:

1.- FXCM, 10.000.-$ demo account, 20 hours ago, 1:200, EUR/USD, M5, Min Lot Size: 0.1, by mistake BalancePerLotSize: 500, so Lot: 2.0 (obviously, excesive lot size, that´s why I started 2º test)
Results: 1º attachment

2.- Alpari UK, 10.000.-$ demo account, 2 hours ago, 1:500, 11 pairs from post 1, M5, Min Lot Size: 0.01 (in demo accounts, in live accounts 0.1), BalancePerLotSize: 500, so Lot: 0.2
Results: 2º attachment

I think there is a lot of potential here.....

Thanks again.

I vas planning to wait until the Snow Roller was modified to put on one chart like basket EAs but I could not resist to try it so I opened 6 currency pairs and I have made over 400 pips already today.
I have no DD and I think that is because I use Kamikaze method and Greedy mode for take the profit. As soon I have 4 pips profit the broker can't take them pips back.
If I write a little more I will end up with 500 pips + before I have posted this message.

Hi E2U, what snowroller version are you using and would you post your setfile please. Thanks!

I use Classic and I downloaded it yesterday. I did not change anything but I think this is the key to the profit with my setfile. http://sites.google.com/site/pipdefender/
Take away txt from pipdefender.set.txt and put it under presets.
You have to open one chart for Pipdefender and you have Snow Roller on the other. Both with same currency.
I have asked the author of Pipdefender to make his EA to take care of whole account from one chart and now I ask the author of Snow Roller to do the same
