{quote} My preferrred set file is RSI with SL and TP. My preferred Timeframe is 60 min. The preset can be used for USDCAD at NY open but possibly better optimized. Enclosed below is an optimization on EURUSD 30 min 01 Jan - 30 Mar 2016 Optimized Wager Increase 1 to 2 step .1 SL 10 to 100 step 10, TP 10 to 100 Step 10 Opening Time 1:30 to 12:30 step 1, Close Time Buys 13:30 to 23:30 step 1, Close Time Sells 13:30 to 23:30 step 1 Best Results - Wager Increase 2, SL 50, TP 60 Open Trade 02:30 Close Buys 13:30 Close Sells 23:30 {image} {image} {image}...

{quote} You can import a preset into tester. 70/30 crossovers don't occur frequently on 60min charts but quite frequently on optimization 55/40 comes out as best crossovers. I suggest http://forex-strategies-revealed.com as a good source of strategies. http://www.easyexpertforex.com/backt...imization.html is a good starting point to understand backtesting and optimization.

Hi Dave It me again...l am wondering...l was using Channel trade set file, original settings, M30, 8 currencies before went to sleep (22 hours ago) Woke up with 100P...Was over the moon Then it went to 220P....Was DREAMING... Then came 13 SL /2TP hit almost in row during the day and still 70P left from now...Still great...But in real life, real account, how do we manage that, avoid that? Some Hours versus Currencies versus Session seem to be better than others... Then l presume 1) we need to find out by ourself with demo account 2) Take notes...

Hi Dave I am in the process of coming to grips with Agility and so far am very impressed - congratulations . That said, you say ... and I agree, "Your broker is critically important in your trading." I am an active member of another thread which has recently ground to a near halt as the main programmer has "disappeared" ... I have two questions for you: 1) I also live down under so do you have a recommended broker? 2) I don't want to upset anyone so I ask is it OK to "point" others to this thread as a source of open code?

Hi Dave, Been watching the thread and must say this is a great idea. Well done! I apologise if my request is already explained as after trying and failing i need help: Is there a way to set the EA to take entries based on break of candle highs(in an up trend) or lows (in a down trend)? My criteria for short entries would be: At high of the day/week/month(depending on timeframe of entry you select for your trade) * Await candle close then Break of the lows of this candle will be sell order with stop at high of the same candle. * high of the day trading...

{quote}There is a flaw in your argument the way I understand it in that you will never know when you are at that high or low candle!

{quote} Got yah. I would personally use it with a bias. I.e. if i feel daily timeframe looks good then i would switch the EA on to sell mode and allow it to execute sell entry pn the daily timeframe. Semi-automatic trading. Hope that helps.
