Hi Skyline On the first page you wrote: * EA is provided as is, there maybe several bugs that could damage seriously your account , so it's completely your decision and your risk to use it with real money. Does it matter, if it only works on a demo account?
Hi Kofix,
of course that statement is not referred to demo account but only if you use (when I'll release) live version of this EA.

{quote} Hey Skyline. On this account only works Udine EA. No other transactions. Possible cause: On this account MM 4%>2% daily target, daily target reached.
Hi Saek,
ok I've found the error : logic conditions to show both Daily Target and Max Losses Per Day labels were inverted, so that red cross had been referred to above label Daily Target (which it was reached in your case) and viceversa.
It'll be fixed in next release.

Ty for helping find this nasty bug

Cheers,
Skyline

Skyline,

Great work on this EA! Its seems to be working great!

Question.
TradeOnlyLondon (default = true) // If I set this to false so that I can let it run 24/5

DailyTargetPercentage (default = 2) // And set the Daily target as percentage of account balance to 10%, will the EA continue until this value (10%) is reached and then stop trading for the rest of the day?

I want to know if the Live account EA will take all trades daily. And not be too restricted by time (24/7) or target percentage (10%).

Looking forward to testing this EA on a Live account.

Thanks.

Bruce

Good work to everyone involved in the development!

Hi Brucech,
altough I do not endorse such use, if you want to enable EA to trade non stop, you could use something like this :

TradeOnlyLondon = false;
DailyTargetPercentage = 100; (most unlikely you can hit this on a daily base also because live version will be limited to 4% risk per trade)
MaxLossesPerDay = 100; (this will be the worst thing to be done, it's far better to limit to 3-4 max losses per day)

In this way EA should work continuosly, please just in case report back possible issue since I've never tester such extreme settings (and never will since are too much risky for my taste).

Cheers,
Skyline

Hi skyline,
Watching your EA perform these last two days has been like observing the inner workings of a fully-jeweled, fine Swiss watch!

I did notice a bug tonight. A short pending order was placed correctly, but the note said potential long instead of potential short.

Thanks

Hi Dial,
ty for your kind words

I'll check into issue you reported but I have to replicate on my platform before to be able to fix it

Ok, the last posts are a good occasion for writing my honest view about this EA.
No offense, but I have only little hope now after testing the bot myself and watching the testing of others here. I think the high sensitivity to the brokers resulting in serious differences between the single traders here shows step by step that this EA will fail ... yes, of course there will be good days/phases, no doubt, BUT one day its good with one broker, another day its good with another broker ... in a nutshell it's to instabile, not reliable enough ... AND we haven't had here live trading so far !!
And in my mind the improper R:R of 2:1 isn't a basic for success ! So, all in all sooner or later the equity will slow down in a stepwise manner .... unfortunately !
Dunno really what to change to improve this bot, but perhaps the 00level startegy is indeed a manual method and the automatisation is impossible or nearly impossible ?


All that's only my two pennnies worth !

I have nothing personal against you. This is one of most promising ea I have ever seen. It's all on demo account ofcourse and can't wait to test on live with small position size and then I can tell more. I come to this thread after every few hours to check- has skyline released for live early and in case if he surprise us.

Even I can see lots of download of EA, atleast say Thanks who share for nothing his more than 1000 line coding ea.


Skyline, Again thanks for your EA. Great sole and programmer

No emotions are needed. In any case I/we have to say a big thank you to people like skyline, BUT: Its simply a business for all of us here ... including skyline himself ! At the end, the only important thing is: will an EA (any EA) bring money for a long time or not. If an EA (any EA) fails - that usually happens unfortunately with nearly all of them - we have to accept that ! Nothing more we have to consider.

That's odd, I didn't get the second buy EUR/JPY order for both my ThinkForex and FXOpen live accounts.

Good thing it was a loss though.

Hi DerBerliner,
I completely agree with you, this EA in the long run will not gain any money , I'm quite sure about that infact I also wrote this in 1st post :

'To be noted that this EA cannot be properly backtested due to news filter presence, so I do not trust it completely because I cannot figure out its statistical behaviour so I cannot evaluate its weakness and limit (max drawdown, max consecutive losses,...)'

There's no doubt that this kind of EA with few pips in TP,SL,TS are very sensible to broker data, I've already wrote here that I had (few) different trades using the same EA on two different account in the same broker but it's not an EA issue or some programming bug (at least not that I've yet discovered), so you cannot fix this by adding 'filter'.

For the above reason I'll release a 'risk-controlled' live verison where mak risk per trade will be limited to 4% , because EA of this kind could seriously damage a real account.

Then will be up to each of you to decide if try to test it in live or not , I think I'll do but with a very little account (less than 500 euro) with 2% risk per trade and will stop at -30% no matter what.

Regads,
Skyline
