hi lolygagv2,
I fully agree with you that it is much easier to test and develop some basic ideas if one has the ability( at least to some extend automatize it ) - many of the more defined ideas grow out of such.
So I do understand that people ask for such...in an early state.
Nevertheless, I'm not willing to invest my time for free just for anyone/any idea which floats around on the internet ect...
Of course like many others I do the occasional "help out" coding ..ect..
but with this thread I have a clear idea which I also stated in the first two posts.
Someone who has a strong conviction his/her idea might indeed be successful, who does not shy away from spending a lot of screen-time on it because it has cached the imagination - who are not just system jumper but really work on one or a couple to see if they can make it work in the end...
Maybe someone who has traded the system for 6month 2years and want to automatize it...
I do not completely agree that because one can not automatized test an idea that one can not have a good distribution of results. Before the modern Computer age - there where trades around with strategies.. invest lot of energies in all kind of backtesting ect..
I don't think so:
1.
if it would be that easy every person would code there EA themselves which is not the case
2.
the only and main thing I ask is that a person has spent some time thinking about the strategy, did some screentime (which will ultimately help them in improving their ideas) and looked for themselves at some results before asking to have it programmed for free.
If someone has not such commitment I doubt strongly that they will succeed even with an EA.
I clearly pointed out that there are paid jobs available in the forex community (in case someone did not know).
With this thread I'm not at all interested to code an email alert to an existing indicator .. if I want such there are plenty of opportunities to help .. which I do occasionally..
Bottom line is:
I'm passionate about the things I do - invest much time and energy into them
- if there are similar minded people but can not code but have other abilities (most trading system I read about which somehow sounded interested where not from coders) I'm interested to join up...if the system seems to be worthwhile to invest time and energy..
DislikedBecause if I have an idea, and I've tested it anecdotally over a few weeks or months, I'm not going to have a good distribution of results, not until it's coded....... I just know, as a programmer/strategist myself, I often just start with an idea, and a few observations of profitability and then program it up and leave the SL and TP flexible to see what happens.Ignored

DislikedWhat you're asking for, is almost the same thing as an already coded strategy, so most of the work is already done for you haha.Ignored
