Dear everyone,

First of all, big thanks to the original contributors and coders that made this EA to its present version! Great achievement and it was awesome to read al the posts from the beginning. Nice teamwork from the start.

I've been reading this whole thread and attached the V19 to my charts on a demo account.
The sad thing is, I can't get the EA to take a trade. It has been running 24 hours now and should at least seen a opportunity as I saw several in my opinion haha.

For info: i'm trying to run the TMS V19 MTF.ex4 with set file "20111024 tms v17 m15 zonepullback" from member snowyHH posted on page 87 post #1722.

My charts look the same as everyone else here with a running and functional EA.. I don't know what I am doing wrong.

Is there something where I need to take close attention too? All the obvious checks are already being triple checked and I believe all settings are good to let the EA trade live and by its self.

If I need to post more additional information, please say so. I'm willing to help where possible.


Thanks in advance and hope we can figure this out and let's make it functional and profitable for everyone!
Looking forward to test it with you EMU,


Best regards,

Wes.

I had the same issue and noticed in the top right hand corner the little smiley face wasn't smiling. The solution is simple. Just press the Autotrading button on the MT4 toolbar

Hi hostwey,

Haha, yeah that's a classic one unfortunately all charts are happy smiley faces. They say Trading active 15MIN. I also see the "trend down" or up notification. All seems like its running but it isn't for some reason..

Thanks for the reply but I'm afraid its a bit deeper

Well I'm assuming that under EA properties => Common you have ticked this box

If not perhaps relax some of the trading parameters and see if that triggers a trade.

Do you get any alerts saying a trade is being opened but these don't get sent to the broker?

That is correct, I do have checked those boxes. Till now, no action at all.

I do understand what you mean by relax the parameters, but I have no idea which should be best suited to relax in order to still work properly. I do have read the manual but still it's a bit hocus spocus (as we say here in Holland).

No, I do not receive those alerts from MT4. I do receive alerts when a pair breaks through a TMA band.

Hope this helps a bit?

Ok, my EA is running and functional. It took three trades yesterday which ended with two losses and one winner. Exit on the win was alright and i'm happy about those settings. The two losses were due to a to tight stop loss level. The overal movement was in the right direction of the trade. So I adjusted the stop loss settings to a slight wider one.

Let's see how next week will be and end. Keep you updated and looking forward to the other testers results.

Have a nice weekend and easter.

Thank you all for posting this EA! I was reading bigE his topic and from there I found this.. Really great and interesting.

im playing around in demo mode and backtesting it a bit. I was wondering if it is possible to edit when to open and close a trade after the tdi crosses? I know that the original way said after 3 bars but I would like to play arround with these settings, like 1 bar, 2 bars, directly.

i would like to play around with the basics before I add other indicators that i don't understand yet ;-)

To all TMS traders: You weekend exercise if to study the psf manual and prepare you EA with the paramters and svae them as set files for forward testing starting next week using a new demo account of US$50,000. Try to grow that by 10% every 20 trading daysas the initial target. Post your trades here next week and also post your set files. I put EA on these pairs - Majors: AUDUSD, EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDCHF, USDCAD, NZDUSD, AUDJPYU, EURJPY, GBPJPY, Euro Crosses: EURAUD, EURNZD, EURCAD, EURGBP, GBP crosses: GBPAUD, GBPNZD, GBPCAD.
@Emmanuel,
Which settings are you using? Which time frame are you using it on? Do you you open trades yourself and let the EA manage it or you let the EA open the trades and then you can manually intervene sometimes? From your little rest of this V19, has it been doing ok in terms of profitability?
Thanks for your anticipated reply.

Hi Guys,

I have access to many years of very high-quality tick data (Modeling quality 99.90%) and was trying to test v19 in MT4 but got an error "zero divide."

Can this EA be back-tested in MT4 or am I doing something wrong? I have installed all indi's, etc.

**Please note: If this EA proves to be profitable using my tests, it IS profitable for REAL. Heck, I'll even run a Monte Carlo on it if I have to. I am a computer programmer and I also have access to good data and strategy testing tools used by the pros.

Please help me test the EA the right way!
