Hello every one
I was wondering will it be good to add a moving filter for a bigger frame like 1 hour or 4 hours to determine the right direction ??
I know some times we will still stuck with old orders here or there from the old direction before it was changed,but sure it will not be 8 or even more every 10 pips in the wrong direction .
and in this way we will minimize the wrong orders in the wrong direction and we will make the expert open orders in the right direction AUTOMATICALLY

But then you only go with the short trend like H1 H4 the community trend is more the longterm it dont maters if it goes 40 -pips cause then it goes back in the longterm direction. Thats what Grid EA are doing and thats why no SL there...... Grid trading EA s can go for days in the wrong direction.....

Try what i am doing put it only on pairs where the community trend is over 60% works well today but lets see how it works over time. I closed all postions on USDJPY cause the Trend is only 53% even that i made -60 pips with closing that positions the EA allready got them back in the good trending pairs

Yes, I think it's a good idea. Perhaps you have been too quick to close the USDJPY trade only because the percentage is under 60%, however the concept is right. I may add that it's always important with grid systems, to have small sizes, the smaller the better.
Thanks Googletrade for the EA

Eki, you are in UK but are you English?

Because this "Even when i put the code, it stuck on installing" I do not comprehend

Have you followed both the installer instructions exactly? Is "put the code" meaning run the installer?

Have you tried to manually put the file in the EA folder? Do you know how to do that?

You will have to explain very clear what you are doing and which part is not working or no one can help you.

Good luck, John
It takes a lot for me to IGNORE you, but you can try.

No, we "mustn't" stop, we should, of course, it depends if your reference is this value of percentage. We all need some points of reference. You can also watch the hourly chart if there is a clear trend: in the EURUSD this is not the case, in my opinion. 4hours chart: downtrend. Daily: downtrend. So I would try to trade EURUSD only short. This is a probability game... Small size, small Multi lot factor (1-1.2) and see what happens!

It about the volatility of the pair. Not the strength of the trend, as I understand it. He said in an earlier post the you could expect 200 pip runs against the trend on EURUSD at times so have you setting prepared to endure this. If your lot is to large you will eat all you margin up so adjustments to lot size must be made to prevent this issue as well as burning your account.

High volatility implies high "step" value. As a rule of thumb I take the value of atr(14) in the 1min chart, adding a 50%. So a 2pips atr become a 3 value of "Step", 4 atr become 6 step.
It's always advisable to stay with the trend and follow a strong trend with a grid system is very very profitable

Agreed
Yes, stay with trend. I'm saying the strength of trend % (however this is derived) does not stop the trade.

And i'm not saying high volatility. I'm meaning that the volatility of the pair is where you optimize your settings to handle the fluctuations against your entries.

Have a stomach ache during drawdown? Lot size is the culprit...
