Are people (besides Dragos ) seeing correct trades with this EA?

I ran it on AUDUSD with default params, except I changed Lots to 0.1. I ran it in the strategy tester (20 mins to test 20 days, yeesh) and found that it was basically at breakeven for the month. It would have lost money if not for one 118 pip winner (!?) on 11/11. Avg wins about $23, avg losses about $19, but it only hit 45% wins. That doesn't seem to match up with what we've been seeing in the live thread.

That was on M15 since Strategy Tester doesn't support M10, but I...
Well, as long as trades are taken and managed by the EA "as per rules", nothing else to do. Let me know if EA doesn't respect rules.

I'm using this set on my forward testing. All as per rules, except I also use ExtendTP function. Just take care of the trading hours, I use it 24 hours for testing the logic of EA. One is with Martingale, the other without Martingale.

Increases lotsize in case of a loss, with Martingale multiplier.

With Martingale, think "double or nothing" in gamblers terms on your next trade, except the next "nothing" could be double your loss.

It presumes that a losing streak cannot last forever, doubles the next trade to win back losses from the loser and it assumes you can handle any massive level of draw-down of your account's free margin.

Have no ideea why, here the code is intact, and the EA is running ok, all 3 trades from this morning opened as per rules.Try re-downloading it.
Thanks....I have downloaded it again it now works...I also noticed that putting it on the chart with the period indcitator helps....if you put it on the 10 min chart it wont trade..

Of course it makes sense...as it a off line chart..

Thought I would mention this as it may help others..

The re entry doesnt wait for a new white arrow.
Fratelli rules requires a new arrow if I am not mistaken.

Otherwise the initial entry on the EA works well and got me in early on GU +8.

Also got me in on EU -20 the long candle would have stopped me from entering a manual trade and would have avoided the -20.

dragosd1,
first of all thank you very much for your excellent work!

I am having this error:

Fratelli EA_v.2 EURUSD,M10: Alert: EURUSD OP_BUYSTOP order send failed with error(130): invalid stops

when the Ask/Bid is less than MODE_STOPLEVEL in the OrderSend.

Guys,

Loaded the EA OOTB to trade EU and only changed the lot size. It's been running for 2 days and so far not a single trade. Comments?

I had that too, on every tick. Very annoying.

I didn't have the SuperTrendmod indicator on my chart. I turned off the EA, added SuperTrendmod, and turned the EA on -- seems to be working now.

Hi Gary/autotrade
The error is because the PA has moved too far away from Order therefore invalid stops n limits

or could be if ur on 5 digit broker and u set SL to 20, on a 5 digit broker thats actually only 2 pips, so u need to enter 200 which will mean 20

not saying is the answer but ive experienced that in the past

That is a ENTRY, not a Re-Entry, entry candles has closed from upside down below EMA. We can add a MaxCandleRange filter.

SuperTrendmod wouldn't change a thing, it's not related in any way with this error. Well, it's a issue related with broker MODE_STOPLEVEL.
All you can do is increasing the buffer size from 4 to 5 or higher, for now.

Or that...hmm, I'm thinking at forcing the EA to open a market order in this case...

EA is adapting to any number of digits. This one is excluded from start.

The ea keeps trying to enter longs in the area of the final green candles. It keeps getting invalid limit and stop errors but this is not a legal entry point anyway. MacD down and PO below EMA line.

I did a quick backtest just from Oct 31st to present using the EU on the 15 min timeframe. I also changed TP to 20 and SL to 25 per Fratelli's rules. It had a great start, but then started losing money.
