hi with other resolutions it did not work no problem i have new problem "Trading time is over!!" what is this issue? and skull? and sorry about other simple question in an other account in windsor broker this ea did not work all the numbers are zero {image} {image}

For the zero error, open the expert and scroll at the bottom where you will add the suffix or prefix that you need. You have an @ after each pair and it's not recognizable by the expert unless you add it.

The skull may mean that you are outside the trading timeframe described in the Ea's settings. Correct me if i'm wrong swingman.

I've started testing the new version.

Some insight & requests:
- average strength diff column (depending on stop/limit expiry time, good for manual trading I guess -maybe too resource consuming-)
- exclude pairs (more direct than strength diff. / check screenshot from another EA)

The EA needs volatility and high ATR like others.

Today was ~+%5-10 on better days I've seen ~+%80

I and the EA are not a fortune teller to know in advance whether a pair is to buy or to sell...

{quote} I and the EA are not a fortune teller to know in advance whether a pair is to buy or to sell...
well, I suggest the same: user should put the input.

example:
DontBuyCurrencies: GBP,CHF
DontSellCurrencies: CHF
DontBuyPairs:
DontSellPairs: AUDNZD, AUDCAD, NZDCAD, GBPCAD

I think you get the idea now...

So the EA will never buy GBP / GBP pairs, so if there is a flash sell no SL will be hit because there won't be a position...
(also trading GBP/x is ~always more expensive -pip value- than trading USD/x and therefore for more aggressive strategies, I don't use GBP. -to make use of more margin/leverage-)

"limiting counter-trend moves", trying to reduce drawdown.

PS: I run MT4 with PlayOnMac (wine) on Macbook Pro. After 5 x MT4 x2 EA; the machine struggles. (16GB Ram + SSD, with chrome -10tabs- open)

- don't trade currency is easy, give in 9.1 and -0.1 then will not trade this currency example GBP or by JPY or or..
or you can delete the pairs you will not trade in the settings in the Dashboard

- don't trade buy or sell is easy the same 9.1 = trade not sell -0.01 is not trade buy

- trading is thinking with brain first thinking and after writing

actually it is not the same.
think of it as clusters; if you do it that way you can't trade some crosses.

think more.
and think first, write later?

- I need this not I want to help you

- why is not the same? have u test it? Sure no !

- I can trade with the EA 1.9 and 2.2 and all is well and I can trade only sell and only buy if I want
and I can trade without different currencies

- we want a small and easy EA with easy settings and not a EA with 25 Indis and 10 skripts
and not one can trade with it like other dashboards and systems

- if I trade manually this strategy with very strength settings, the win rate is 95% - 100% - now here I let run only automated trading - all orders reversed orders - yesterday closed nothing - today closed the following for now {image}
Hi GB,

1. Can you share your 2 set file ? Limit & stop.
2. How big the DD ? I know your result is plus, trader must count DD also. Big DD is not for real account.

Thanks

- you can trade first one month with 0.01 Lot and with the win go higher with the lot

- with 0.01 Lot you have only a little DD / what is a big DD ?

- I begin with a new EA live with lower lots and trade after one month only with the win, not with the capital

- I trade with this EA live if the EA is more finished, not on the begin of developement

- I must fine tuning the settings for the new update 2.2 from tomorrow on, the settings have changed

- more information tomorrow evening to the same time to the update 2.2

Gostbiker, why do I get an alert when placing auto .01 lot trades and only trades when I press "okay button"? Alerts me that lot is below .10 and if I'm okay with that.

@trustyct: make you manually orders? In the settings down "Alert_SendOrderConfirmation" give in "false" ?

- StopLimits are too large for your capital. Decrease the risc of 0.5%
or
- Set Enable_MoneyManagement=false

If you yourself do not know such things, please do not use EAs and trade only manually.

In the next version 2.3 I introduced only for you the parameter: Accept_MinimumLots_ForSmallCapital=true to no more get the alert and to have to think about it...

I agree with ghostbiker, we need an EA using only currency strength and nothing else. Example when EUR reach a certain threshold like 8.0 > buy, or sell for a reverse option. The EA should not buy/sell like, only basket trades, but and individual pairs. Also a weekly and monthly strength option would be the best, did you look what happened after weekly smStrength indicator showed 9.0 JPY and 0.0 GBP? It gave more than 400 pips!
