{quote} On this input, can we used a fixed minimum and fixed maximum for the ATR - I think that would address my concern. For example, the current ATR for GJ is skewed too high because of the brexit move. If we base trades off that ATR, then the SL and TP will be way too large.
Yes. That makes sense. However max and min should be set differently for each pair.

Good. What was your max draw down?And if you don't mind what does 200 represent as return percentage?

Thank you all for testing the Yen Trader.

It would be easier and quicker for me to fix any found errors if you post the following:

  1. EA version
  2. Input Settings (an image of settings or the set file). Note to post the set file, choose save on the inputs screen and enter a file name, then compress the file using winrar/winzip or change the file extention to .txt instead of .set which is not uploadable on FF.
  3. Clear description of the error/bug/misbehavior ... etc.

Quick test, not sure what is going on with shorts.{image}
Dear nonlinear,

The minimum for "Loop Back Bars" in v5 is 2 (was 1 in v4 and earlier).
This change was made as we are actually comparing the price at x loop back bars with closed price (i.e. previous bar which is bar 1), so it was meaningless to compare the a bar with itself.

This change is what made the EA in your test to open only buy trades, as you set loop back bars to 1, in which case buy and sell are set to true, but since you allowed only 1 order at a time by setting max orders to 1, and since buy is called before sell order, the EA executed buy orders only.

I will add a validation on this input in future releases.

Thank you for all your efforts in developing this system.

All the best,

Khalil

Thanks.

This is not the latest version posted (which is Yen_Trader_05).
This is probably Yen_Trader_04 or Yen_Trader_04_TS.

Are you using an ECN account ? because versions prior to 5 do not have an ECN option.

This ea can build profit very fast, also down the road is a open trades issue with negative value, i see one solution for this that after making some % on account, all open trades be closed if profit is bigger then a dd and call it for a day.

I have a question. If i use for all the pairs i trade a same magic number will that affect a closing trades mechanism or logic?

No its OK, you can use same magic on different pairs, but not on the same pair.
If you want to trade the EA on same pair with different settings, different time frame , you need to give it a new magic number, otherwise its OK.

I am a bit surprised since ea was scalping very fast. I am eager to see what will happen with open orders during the night. Anyway good work Abokwaik, it was a pleasure watching ea taking profits...almost as ILAN ea is resurrected and started being profitable

It would be interesting in some of next versions to have an options to choose a pair which we want to trade in a settings, and ea would automatically set a combination of a other two pairs in settings(i know its a long shot)...Some dashboard version for the guys who like to trade with bigger number of pairs would be more then appreciated.

Keep in mind, on M1 if you are shooting for 5000 TP, then the EA is still looking for relatively big moves and performance will vary accordingly. It will be very interesting to see how the EA works truly scalping on M1 with smaller targets (a few pips over the spread).
