I add GBP/USD to my basket starting today.

BTW: Does someone know what's wrong with this trade explorer syncing stuff? I've always have to re-enable it in the settings to get a new sync. Manual syncing doesn't work either...

Hello,

How did everyone's trades went today? I tried EU, GJ, GU, UCH, EG and AC and nearly all had hit the SL.


Thanks.

I don't think it makes sense to trade EG, UCHF and AC during London open. UCHF is mostly the reverse of EU, EG is ranging a lot and AC is more active in the US and Asian session.

Noted and will be removed from my list.
Any suggestions (someone on the thread mentioned EG, that's why I've added it and thought about adding more).


Thanks.

It's a pity, but for me, using the EA, this week ended black as well ....

@Xaron: What about you ? Your TE is switched off unfortunately ....

Hi Abokwaik, you make a great job with your EA, i tried this one, and i modified the setting, here i think i found a good setting that works very nicely.
Test from 2014 til now. I know that the setting is not usual, but the result is good i think, and also the drandown.

Where is Xaron ? What does he think about these unusual settings ?

(Hmmm .... a BT is a BT .... what will happen in forward test ? This is/will be the only proof !)

Man this trade explorer stuff sets me up. I always have to re-enable everything, syncing doesn't work.

Well yes, the last week ended bad.

Thanks for these settings. Could you please post them in a readable way as I don't use MT? Thanks!

Yes I see it. I meant that you could write the parameters just as a post in this thread as I don't use MT4.

Thanks for that!
Welcome! I will start soon a live demo test with those parameters. In the next two weeks i cannot do that because i will not be at home, but my plan is to make a forward test for a month on demo test just to see that the EA works properly with the traling stop, then maybe live real account with small money.
Anyone of you is using this EA on real?

Anyway it looks promising.
Thanks!

@abokwaik's
Hey is there any chance you can add a offset spread into the EA like an option to add a 10 pip gap
Would really appreciate it for back testing purposes.

I trade all the opens but generally leave a 10 pip gap in between candle and my entry and go for longer trends also its at 90% win rate this year

Hi Cizz,

Can't you use Min Candle Size option for that ?
Or do you want it as a separate option regardless of trigger candle size ?
No guts, no glory

Hi there, I'll pause this for a moment. Don't have time for manual entries all the time and don't use MT4. Please go ahead and thanks for the EA!
