no... I think you should just ignore the errors, if you don't know how to do it. You still have to have some minimmum programming skills

If your system gets bogged down too much, go ahead and periodically clear out the log folder.

Yes.

The EA is optimizing itself.

RR are you still using this EA in your LIVE account? if so are you running it on VPS or in your PC?

First I want to say thanks to RR for sharing this. I stumbled upon this soon after I found out about forex about a year ago, but never could figure out how to make it trade and I don't like to ask noob questions, so I left it alone. I went through and read the entire thread last night and I love the idea of this EA being two very basic concepts (breakout and countertrade) but that the EA is constantly determining which one is best. I set up a demo account and let it run overnight with pretty much the default settings and it has made a small profit...
Hows your experimental doing? using only succes score???
keep us update..

Wow, this thread is interesting. I also read the article you mentioned on post #1 at mql4.com, I want to implement it on my EA but couldn't understand how. Well, I am not a programer after all and learn to code EA on my own googling here and there.

I've download your EA and I will observe how it behave. As mentioned on your earlier post about running several EA together to have some kind of MM. I already done it with my EAs, run about so many EAs with different pairs and yes when one loose there will be many other win their trade.

Here is one of my EA set doing forward test on non optimized parameter. I also run the optimized one on my live account(spent more thana week to optimize it, duh!). I don't use TP but use some condition for exit, when my internet down earlier I have so many winning trades became loosers. Maybe I should use VPS or co-location server next time.

I've been looking for interesting eas and refloating the old ones here are some to get the most out of them.
They are all self-optimizing. This work is a real gem of simple programming, and adaptable to the market, provide the programmers to adapt this to the current situation.

But in the time I read all.... I could create 3 other strategies as Indicators and Expert Adivsors on MT4....

I prefer Linda Rashke 80-20....10 minutes too read.... and we haven t 2 talk about how profitable such thing is when she gots the data from Moore Research Center by Steve Moore...

4 pages with several pictues so only 1 page text to read...
Why try 2 invent the wheel....maybe this wheel is more round...

Greetings from Perth... R
PS: Feel free 2 ask me when my EA to this strat(ofcourse we are talking about Linda) cause this strat is on my 2 do list...

Hello. I have seen your project, but it is useless.
These Expert advisor that I publish are not profitable, but by adding a neural network to it, they could improve a lot.
Actually, the neural network works like any indicator that adapts to the operation of the pair, the problem is that it should self-optimize after each important news, and achieving that is very difficult.

You're basically saying that you wish to:
1) take some trash input
2) and then perform some alchemy on it (neural network)
3) and hope to create gold in the end.

Think about that for a few minutes.

Then ponder on the concept known as "overfitting". So here's a hint. Instead of starting with "trash" why not start with something that at least has a chance to be converted to gold?

Sorry for my bad English. One of the few ways to obtain profitability in forex, with Expert advisor: Self-optimizing neural network, which takes into account the spread, the broker's commission, and the news filters. There is not in any internet forum, a system that by itself is minimally profitable, and that when doing a tick-by-tick test with variable and real spread, passes the test from 2006 to today, starting from a petty cash. , for example 500 dollars.
