can you share more concrete insights regarding timing? is there a set time GMT that is favourable, ie are you manually or semi-auto or auto trading? {quote}
I am using breakout strategy and most of the time trade manually without any EA's,but sometimes I don't have time to manage my trades...so I choose best setups with BRK_pin and let it on casino(Thank you Eugene!).
As for timing...It all depends on your trading experience and how you see the market...so there is no a comlete "how-to" on this such of thing.
Sam have good posts in this thread...actually his post regarding POI explained to me what I missed(Thank you Sam!)...I think,if you read Sam's posts carefully,you make yourself something useful.
Sucess requires some trial and error...you can trust your money to lagging indicators which shows you nothing but the past...or you can think about trading like a business,where is no place for "super-golden grail money making EA's".

Hey jimbnc, nice picture, the bear from radioactive from imagine dragon if I'm not mistaken.

Not that great, my lot size was at 1 lot so really only a 45 pip take, it was around the 85 pip mark before my last trade. No drawdown though, which is great.

- I use fundamentals, currency strength and support and resistance zones to work out the best pairs to trade.
- I then set up the trnd break with a JSL buf of 10. I use the 4 hour chart to place my break out lines but then change to the 1 hour chart once I am into a trade so that my JSL jumps quicker.
- Working out long term and short term sentiment of currencies has helped me a great deal over the past year, I wouldn't trade against the sentiment and will generally wait for a pull back and then trade the correction.

Using the pairs I used in the screen shot as an example. The USD is obviously the strongest currency with them looking at raising their interest rates by the end of this year. The commodity currencies are the weakest on the medium and long term with AUD, NZD and CAD all decreasing their rates in the past 6 months. Waiting for bad usd news like the non rate hike from last weeks FOMC meeting mixed in with last weeks strength from the commodity currencies had left good opportunities to sell off the commodity currencies against the USD. Also with the money flows heading into safe haven currencies saw good opportunities with buying the JPY. You also see the EUR becoming negatively correlated to the USD in times of USD strength.

These are just my observations and I'm sure other traders have differing views, but this system (which is still only in demo) has been shown to be profitable for a couple of weeks so far. I am a news trader by trade and use different EAs to trade into the news and out of the news.

All the best and happy pip hunting

I've had quite some good success with the Trnd_Brk_PIN and H_n_G_PIN this week, but not today (also the Hasd + Trnd_BRK_PIN strategy). Should I assume that Fridays are not good for this kind of trading?

looks like my question got ignored:
1) can somebody point me to a post that explains why backtesting for this EA is not possible ? Would not it make sense to stop adding "another" feature and focus on adding ability to backtest? Would not that add more value ?

all these posts:" I tested it for 2 days and it works are useless". You need to be able to backtest it for 3-5 years to see how it behaves during news periods, slow days and etc. A lot of EAs die because nobody can come up with a good set of settings.

2) why dont people post their EA sets when they claim good results? should that be a good courtesy rule ?

1)EA needs live data of all 28 pairs flowing right to the MT4 + window to run visual shell.The MT4 strategy tester don't give that kind of option.
2)They claim good results because of "I tested it for 2 days and it works'' and they even don't know why "it works".
If somebody making money with this EA you will never(90%sure) see that member on this forum again.People watch forums to "find the way"...once they got it-90% never come back.

Quick update!!

Tallinex Demo acting weirder/slower than trader way !! And yes I took the pictures of them. But I am busy now. Will upload them later.

Especially on market bias. TW's market bias is 67 green while tallinex's is 63 red and pause to 50 from time to time.

Conclusion: A good demo broker keeps from ruining your tests <--TOTALLY NOT RHYTHM. XD
