Check your leverage is actually 1:50 I've just tried with a demo account on a standard account and 1:50 leverage, with $5000 opening balance it let me open a trade of 1.25 lots although it would be the only trade I could open.

I introduce X-InvictusEA. Right now it's not profitable yet. Well, I plan to add some filters, Money Management, Breakeven, Trailing Stop, Close Partially, Variable SL-TP, etc.
It's based on the indicator "smInvictus ATRRangeFilter_v3" (thanks SwingTrader), so you need it in your indicator folder. I understood that the signals offered by this indicator are good. If not, please tell me, in order to change the signal basis. Anyway, it is very slow... Maybe, you could recode the indicator...
Remember, YOU CANNOT TRADE WITH REAL MONEY WITH THIS EA. It's just a prototype.
Good luck

Hey, maybe a stupid question, but seeing as how active this thread is, I thought I'd find an answer -

I used to chart with Qcharts and if you held down shift while drawing a trendline, it would draw a perfectly horizontal line. Is there anything similar in MT4? I want to be able to draw a horizontal trendline without having to get a microscope to position it correctly. And I don't want to use the horizontal trendline button which just draws an endless line in both directions.

Thanks.
Small disciplines repeated with consistency lead to great achievements.

Hi All,

Invictus EA attached. Also attached last version of MTF HA indicator which does news filtering using FFCal indicator (attached) from http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...=19293&page=40

Invictus EA also uses FFCal. EA seems to be working, I tested it for last couple of days, but it obviously requires some more testing. By default the rules are slightly different from the original rules: it uses SL 30pip, TP 15pip and no ATR filtering. All these parameters and many others can be changed to your liking.
It is possible to backtest it, but news filtering will not work for historical data and also MT4 backtest cannot be trusted. If this EA works well on demo, I'll rewrite it for JForex and do proper optimization, but I doubt I will give these results away

Upd: added the include library utctime.mqh which is needed for the EA to work. It should go to experts/include folder.


Green pips,
mcs

Also posting three pivots indicators (each displaying 5 levels), they altogether display all pivot and round levels used in the above EA and MTF HA indicator.
They are not needed for the EA or the indicator to work, but you might want to put them on the chart for your reference.

Thanks you,ohammond!

I checked my leverage - it was actually 1:20 for some reasons.Although I clearly remember that I've chosen 1:50 when I was opening account.

no there wasnt ADE people were being risky, impatitent and trigger happy today because no signals were being created.

If he doesnt mind my saying even Udine broke a couple his own rules today thats how quiet it was, i did not take on trade, i had 40 pips during Asia so im ok for today.

Som im a happy camper even if i didnt take any trades today
Ah ah !I thought i missed many opportunities. At times ,it may be difficult to stay away from the screen. I am also trying to train my self to close my platform after green pips to avoid over trading.

Udine,

one more question on the rules.. I understand that the signal will become invalidated when the MTF changes color. What about the change in OHLC but other rules still comply with?

Here's an example screenshot.

http://img835.imageshack.us/img835/8724/validation.png

This example, we are looking at SHORT signal. with ATR green, MTF all RED, signal bar RED, no news, away from pivot.. but the bar next to signal bar change color to green OHLC, and change back to RED OHLC on the third bar. should we take the trade on the third bar (as there is a breakout of signal bar).

Thanks!

I'm terribly sorry for such a basic question but I generally don't (and by generally I mean entirely) have any experience with using MT4 scripts. How do I used one of the two Invictus scripts (assuming I've put them in the correct folder) to execute a buy or sell order?

Yes, I do that and then the inputs screen comes up, I look over everything and hit "OK" and the inputs screen disappears and then...nothing. I've checked to make sure the option to enable live trading is enabled and all...it just doesn't seem to want to execute a trade.

Does it only allow me to execute trades when there's a proper signal? Because I've just been throwing it on a chart to see if it works on my demo and so far, nothing.
