Mine is taking the right entries, according to the latest indi. Anyway, upload new release, have made MACD buffer optional.

Thanks for your help. Will try new update and indi.

Kind regards.

EA seems to have been having a bit of a wild day today!

And not taking any notice of the times that are set for trading.

I'll add my .set files if that helps?

Same problem here. Not a serious issue. Just turning the EA on manually.

Glad to say the EA is sending trades correctly today.

Thanks to Dragosd1.

No problems here. EU hit adjusted SL -10 pips (after being positive >10 pips), EJ still running positive 23 pips.

Presently running the latest version of EA settings OOTB.

Different broker feeds may account for the discrepancy.

A very satisfactory day on testing today. Apart from the EA sending trades outside trading hours, there were no other problems.

EA set to trade from 07.30 hr GMT to 16.30 hr GMT, but EA manually turned off at 12.34 hr (just trying to simulate live trading as NFP due in one hour).

It would be purely academic to discuss trading results today as many pros would not even be contemplating trading on an NFP day.

However, purely for interest' sake, here are the results.

Settings OOTB except for the trading times and with PO at candle close rather than at High/Low.

Broker's clock one hour ahead of GMT.

Regards.

The results today appear to support the recommendations in the main thread that it is not advisable to trade GU at present on this system.

Two trades on GU were stopped out at 20 pips each.

I hope someone is testing the EA with PO at High/Low so that we can compare results.

I will continue to test the EA using PO at candle close, which was Fratelli's original idea and see what happens.

It is very early days yet whether the EA/system will be profitable in the long run. Only time will tell.

But the EA has certainly made a promising start.

I have turned the EA back on 15 minutes after NFP news. It has taken a short on EJ at 15.33 hr GMT and is now 82 pips positive as I type this post. Having said that, today is not a typical day. There have been several high impact news and increased volatily which suits momentum trading very well, and may have exaggerated the results to some extent.

Regards.

Trade on EJ closed manually at end of session at 16.30 hr GMT, 86 pips to the good.

Total pips for the day +152 pips.

The chart for the last trade on EJ is attached.

Dragosd1, you are a star !

How do you get over 20 pip tp? did u put extendtp to true it thats it? it will automatically trail?

Let me rephrase it, if I have the following settings:
first tp: 20
2nd tp: 20
sl: 25
earlyadjustsl: True
earlyadjustslvalue: 10
BE: 15
BE profit: 1
trailingStop: True
trailingStoppip: 16
Extendtp: true

When it reach +16 profit, it will trail the sl 1 by 1 is that right? so i will exit out when price move down more than 15 pip as that was my most recently SL adjusted (at BE move sl to 1) and it will trail until it reaches 80 pip and you manually closed it?

Correct. As I mentioned in an earlier post, settings are OOTB except for trading times and PO at candle close.

I am not following the rules in the main thread, just experimenting with various settings and see what happens.

As I mentioned earlier, it is very early days yet. If the EA is only a fraction as good as its performance today, then we are on to winner here.

In live trading, I would have closed shop at 40 pips profit just after the London open and enjoy the rest of the day doing other things.

Right now, will have to turn the EA on/off manually as the trading clock is malfunctioning, but this is not a major issue.

Guys, have no ideea what's wrong on you, for the 3rd day in a row, mine is outside trading hours and gets to sleep, check chart. Not only gets to sleep, but is not trading at all. Also, there are minor differencies between indi and PO sent by EA, that's from the MACD buffer option(I'm still using it). Also, some SL/TP issues(not exactly as their given values), I'm aware of those, they comes when EA is placing market order due to fact pending order is denied by the broker(stop_level issue).I'm gonna add a routine to later modify them as per correct values. Here are my setfiles, also I'm re-uploading again the EA you see on my charts in post 1.
That's all I can do.

P.S. Time inputs should be in this format, right? 00:00 or 24:00, otherwise EA can't read them properly...

I am using the default settings which are

first tp = 25 pips
second tp = 25 pips
sl = 20 pips
BE at 15
BE profit = 1
trail stop = 16 pips.

I closed the last trade on EJ because it is end of session at 16.30 hr GMT. In live trading, would have closed the trade at S1 support with +55 pips.

The other trades were completely hands off till one hour before NFP news when I closed all the open trades manually. Otherwise, would have let the trail stop end the trade.

Thank you very much sir.

As I mentioned in my posts, the trading clock is not an issue to me at all. If I were to be trading live, I would have liked to turn on the EA manually any way, only I have had a look at the charts to see whether the conditions are suitable for trading.

Others may be moaning, but it is not an issue for me at all. The main thing is that the EA appears to be sending trades correctly and I have not spotted any missing trades today. There were some error 129 messages about invalid stops, but that may be to do with the broker not accepting the order before PO too close to price quoted. But, after a few such error messages, the trade eventually was accepted.

Good luck to you, sir.

Regards.
