It's called "first time posting set files" mistake. Their are actually only 2 settings. Posted twice.
1) DB set & Casino Test Trend Swing are the set files for Casino DB. Same set , just worded differently.
2) Swing 15 min & Swing 15 min Template are for the individual Swing charts.

I apologize for the confusion. I thought only 2 were posted.

I am getting good results with this set up, however it did wipe out the initial $500 and I topped it up with another $500 9 days ago. PIN1 is standard swing with SL & TP turned off as I have found them to not work reliably.{image}
Hi Fourxxxx

Congrats, that is a huge number of pips ... ... average over 1000 pips a day ...

You say "with SL & TP turned off as I have found them to not work reliably."

But the image shows S/L 0.7; T/P 1.5

So I am confused, to make sure I understand correctly and so I have not missed anything, can you confirm all the settings please:
Casino H4;
Swing;
Charts H1;
S/L 0.7;
T/P 1.5;
Lot Normalised

and that has been running for 9 days straight, starting with a $500 initial loss

Thanks appreciated

Hi Richard, The SL & TP settings in the Swing indicator are turned off. "PIN1 is standard swing with SL & TP turned off". The settings you listed are correct.

{quote} Hi Richard, The SL & TP settings in the Swing indicator are turned off. "PIN1 is standard swing with SL & TP turned off". The settings you listed are correct.
Just to notice ...the TP and SL pips are modified always according to the time period you are adjusting 0.7 and 1.5 ..in example on Tokyo time it is lower, on active times London- NY higher usual...Are you touching them daily for new adjustment and if , on what session-time?
And also I am not so sure, are the swing charts refreshing correctly. I ask this because if I am restarting the charts I have less signals first on the panel. Later, from all pairs I get signals and the panel is full of signals. But I think they are pasiv signals later after running a while and will turn again to activ after receiving a new signal. I just try to be more familiar with the swing charts to use them correct. Thanks

I am running the settings as shown and it is totally hands off, 10 days ago now I topped up the account that is all I have done. I do look at the charts regularly to see what improvements I could make, however if I want to try a change I do that on a new demo account. The results posted are the product of Casino with the settings as shown. Over the last 2 days there has been little change to the account balance, but when the market is ready the profits come.

I have tried with and without TSL, I have got better results without TSL. Sometimes the market takes off and you get nice long run, but more often with a TSL you get stopped out with little profit after the market traded into a reasonable profit and then retraces. There is no one size fits all, I am a hands off EA trader and just set the EA to where I am happy with the results. Please play around with my settings and see if you can improve them, I am sure there is ways to get better results and I look forward to seeing them.

Hello Fourxxxx, i am trading your setup with good results, only added the trigger line buffer by 10, entries are good, only i think that the pins are not refressing sometimes.
Do you have that problem also?
And is there a way to refresh the pins lets say every hour

Hi Pitcher,

I have not tried the buffer, the swing PIN does seem buggy to me. Hopefully Seller9 is okay and will appear again.

I think that if the auto refresh works this is a very good strategy, we wait for seller9 to come up with a solution.
In the meanwhile ive been trying serveral autorefresh indicators, but the don't seem to work, perhaps someone has an idea to autorefresh the charts every x min

Till then, maybe each day around Tokyo perhaps a restart of mt4 can be a solution ...but maybe it will not effect the swing charts to do so...Not sure..But visual we see that a refresh is needed.

Similar settings to Fourxxxx gave me today four dollars
-Differ was the lot size. I did arrange them to 0.01 and also the TP and SL was bit lower according the Lot sizes.It seems to work but my MM needs better to be arranged. How was yours in compare? I can not post the chart because it will only confuse because on same account I was using few manual tradings
