Crowd funded EA to be Coded

I attached and EA called SuperTrend EA which hasn't worked after 4 programmers worked with it in the past. I don't know why it doesn't work but i haven't had any luck using it with Gain Capital or FXCM. I wanted to conduct a poll of who would be willing to contribute $10-$20 to pay a professional programmer to make this EA work. I paid $50-$75 before but the top rated programmers which bid for my project on SpriptLance(now FreeLance) were $100-$150. If this EA is completed, it will be given to each contributor.

This EA will run on the SuperTrend Indi. It's suppose to initiate or close trades each time the price crosses the SuperTrend price overlay threshold after the 4 hour increment. It's also suppose to play the general trend.

Did it ever work on any brokers?
Why are the coders that you paid not sorting it for you?

Do you have the indi "SuperTrend Correct2" in your indicators folder and compiled?

M.

Because i'm not confident in their skills to program. I'm thinking that i need to hire a more expensive programmer.

Yes SuperTrend Correct 2 is compiled in my indis folder. As i stated, it didn't work with FXCM or Gain Capital.

So what is it that doesn't work exactly? If it's not taking trades it could be due to the indicator rather than the EA; the EA is fairly simple.
Attaching the indicator would be helpful.

I posted the indi.

If you want to know the name of the best coder around then pm me. He is not expensive but just completely awesome. If it can be done he will do it. Mind you, if your idea just plain sucks...

thought this request looked familar..... the old version worked for me back then and the newer version does now.......

both place trades correctly for me on ibfx......

fwiw, it's often a good idea to avoid using an icustom if possible..... the supertrend indicator is a perfect example..... the code required to replace it would be just a few lines long..... drop the indicator and let the ea calculate the signals......

simplify.......h

Yup this version works on Oanda (backtest) as well. Not sure what's up with Gain Capital.

So does the EA just not take trades? Or what's the problem?

It worked a couple of months ago for less than a week. After that it didn't initiate any trades at all with both brokers. With FXCM, if i start a trade while the EA is active the trade is automatically liquidated and i lose the spread value.

this will sound like i'm stalking and being a knob, but i think it needs to be said...

a bit of a warning for you guys. capr has started about 1 new thread for every 2 other normal reply posts (which are probably all replies to his own threads), and also keeps on about this supertrend and timebased stuff for months now since the beginning of the year.

i don't know what this guys deal is, but he can't be legit. a good troll, or someone beyond help. i can't help but think he is just playing games. if you choose to indulge capr (who also changed his name earlier this year) then you do so at your own risk. next time he does this i hope one of you will warn the next lot of people he tries to sucker in. i'll be leaving it alone from now on and let him do what he does best. toying with noobs in the rookie or discussion section is one thing, but wasting the time and intelligence of coders is something else altogether.

good luck if you do try to help. at least now you have an idea of what you are getting into.

Great Nubcake, you blew my cover... Pat yourself on the back. I don't know what i'm going to do now for voluntary inquiries... Especially since my original goal for this thread was the poll information, of which the results are apparent, and not programming help. You call me a troll and you scour my post information like your on a mission to save Earth or something. Go scrutinize and harass someone else(god help them).

Yes i changed my name earlier this year as if its incriminating or something. I contacted the developers on this website about having my name changed to something simple from CapitalismPr to CapR. Email them yourself and they might recollect the matter. I also have the private messages. Now for the second time this year, please leave me ALONE.
