Ouch, just came back and saw all orders closed out at 50% loss! Ha.. luckily it's just demo... I had no SL.. but equity loss set at 50%.. perhaps the SL really should be set to prevent such cases. But I looked back at the trades and most are loosers.. so even if SL was set, it would just close out the basket earlier, and pile on more orders the next day. Wonder if this is a good setting?

Maybe it would be good for the EA to calculate the stop loss automatically via the previous high or low and set it accordingly? But we may end up with bigger losses.

Hi Abokwaik,
Today there was a sharp reversal movement in GBPJPY and i was running the EA on M15 chart using the H1 filter, (the setting of the HAS ind was the same as HAS setting in the EA). but after reversal and color change of the candle , the EA opened buy trades several times!! and after a few minutes stopped. Is this normal ?! if " yes" , how can i solve this problem?
Green pips to you

Hello Rooi!

Am VERY happy with the trading today - HA_Rider has decided to show us a GLIMPSE of the type of BOT we are using.

So far my 60% DD level hasn't been reached...yet - so am still in this fight.

Like you said: Lets see how HA_Rider handles this!

Hi Fanatics

I hear what you are saying.

Abokwaik has uploaded the new version of the EA with dollar amount TP and SL option and this very reason we are dealing with now is why I like that option.

In trading we have to take losses.There is no other way.Here are my two scenarios I was thinking of

I have made $440 and would have lost $720 today leaving me "down" - $280 or -28% of original "investment"

If I was using fixed dollor amounts I would have been up $400 and lost $500 today leaving me down - $100 or -10%

Bearing in mind surprise news doesn't happen every week but does happen more often than most people think.

If these are good setting I dont know but this is the model I wanted to test.

Over the weekend I will try and set up some more account with different setting.I want to try and get a 1:2 Risk to Reward setting among others that I want to test but will update .

Thanks for sharing you results and views.

Lets see where we go next week

All the best

Rooi


Edited my calculation errors,maybe I need to start to use a calculator

Hi Ty, I am demoing this ea with the settings you provided in post 171. I noticed that on the NZD/USD, the AUD/CAD and the AUD/JPY you took a long position while I took a short. On the basis of the HAS candles (with settings 2,6,3,2,0) these were short trades if I am not mistaking. Maybe I am mistaking, but just wanted to let you know.
Hmmm, thanks for your observation Adam84...

All I can say here is that the SetFile on post 171 is Version 6 ya? But I still use HA_Rider Version 4 on the Demo attached to this thread...(yet to upgrade).

Maybe I should have Set the Heiken Type as: HA instead of HAS.

Like I mentioned, these setting will change as the thread evolves. Sorry about any mix up man.

Regards,

Ty

As i said before why don't you guys try this EA on range bars?
from what i know nearly all trade following EAs work better with rangebar charts compared to normal / time frame charts

Hi

Then we would have to use "offline" charts isn't it?

After Renko had with the story of how many pips put on each bar for each pair.
Today I tested an account of 100 € with maximum loss of 75%, with the JPY's movement 75% were achieved quickly, I think that when you have important news the day after it is best not operate these pairs.

ok...

I made my way through the thread and the first thing I did this morning was ordering a vps
I think I will be ready over the weekend and the EA will start working the next week!

By the way! I love renko charts and did setup the EA on EURUSD an GBPAUD.
It is trading (see screenshot) and I will check what it is exactly doin.

Still a little more action to look out for though.

Would you mind sharing your setting you use CCI candles if you dont mind
