Question for VEGAS and others using Vegas system..... 2 replies

Vegas Daily MT4 Expert Advisor results

Hi Piccolo, I am also interested in the VWB EA coding, although I am a newbie. Since you already did it, could you tell me how to code the specific technical indicators(Reversals, Spinning Tops, Hammer, Hanging man etc) in the daily method? That seems to be the hardest part. Thanks!

is your nickname, lietuve, somehow related to a country named Lithuania?
I took another look and maximal lot size in that insane experiment was 91.63. The system was designed not to exceed 100 lots.

Sorry, my mistake (regarding lots). Actually the results are pretty impresive! Are you going to make the code available here? Would like to look at it. I am still cracking MQL4. The logic is simple, but syntax is confusing a little bit (I am used to SQL) and I don't know where to get debugging codes. How do you debug? I have made a good chart that I would like to code, it would be a lot of work, but eventually I 'll get the thing done hope so...

I don't use any candlestick pattern recognition. The rules I use are stated in my first post or somewhere in between. You can try to salvage something from an indicator named "Candlestick Patterns" or something like that if you are creating your own EA.

The reason I am not developing this EA further is that it is too relative and plain to be even considered in real life trading. It would need a lot of work to make it real and usable on all currency pairs and it is kind of a top & bottom picking strategy that I am not so comfortable with.

I debug by printing out some stuff like variable values etc. Look at Print().
How do you debug your indicators? I use Alert() - where does Print come out?

I've got a simple reversal script that I get a 4109 on - basically "you can't do that" - do you know what causes it?

I'll finish your VWB EA if you want to publish it. I've got an indicator that I was going to turn into an EA but why start from scratch if you've already done some of the work? Let me know if you publish it.
Hi Piccolo,
is it possible to get your EA based on Vegas daily method, i'd like to forward test it

Thanks,

Print() prints out stuff in the expert log.
No, I haven't had 4109 error so I have no idea what it means.
There is nothing to finish. This EA is too brainless and I don't think that there is an easy way to automate vegas stuff. I used this EA to get the following info: how many times and how often does the price touch the outer fib lines and how many times it touches the second fib, the third, the tunnel and so on. how many times can you take profit on all 6 units.. etc.

This EA is just theory and I wouldn't recommend trading any automated Vegas EA as they just don't work because Vegas methods involve a lot of discretion that cannot be automated. Forward testing daily method would be pointless as it gives maybe 1-2 signals per month.

well, you can try this link (it creates an EA automaticly for you)
http://sufx.core.t3-ism.net/ExpertAdvisorBuilder/

it is a pretty decent tool if you don't know MQL programming yourself.
hi piccolo,
thanks for the info. Do you know if/how it can be made to send out email alerts? or it there other website where i can do up a EA that will send out alerts?

You have to setup an e-mail account in MT4 and use the mail() function in the EA when it opens or closes a trade or for whatever you want. It's not that easy but probably with some googling you could do it.
