Testing new scalping mode: Open a ECN demo account, be sure they charge commission, like FXOpen. No real account yet please select 5,000 as balance and 1:100 leverage. Download EG104.036.ex4 below. Open EURUSD, USDJPY, GBPUSD, AUDUSD and NZDUSD charts, M1 time frame. attach scalp.txt set file to it. Do not use DayTarget Add a chart for every 1K profit, USDCHF and EURGBP, after that start increasing StartLotQty to 0.01 per 1K profit. You may add a SMA20 to observe where orders are placed. (M1 timeframe) let it play and post your ideas. thanks, bauta...

has anyone been testing this with historic tick data?
it would be nice to know how this EA would have behaved on EURUSD during its 1.40 to 1.10 fall from May2014 to Jan2015
anyone?

Looks good!

Is it possible to have a way to maximise the Lot Size?
Cause itīs crazy to trade 1 Lot on 3.000,- account!

I would prefere to set it to "manual trading" after 0,64 and manage the open trades.

Thank You for the greate Work! one of the best EAīs !

Is there any type of spread filter (average) in EG104?

EG104 calculate variables using spread. You don't need to filter it.
on buys it uses the ask, on sells it uses the bid. To calculate profit it subtract the spread.

Hi Bauta,
congrats...EG104 036 a very nice EA, at least on demo. Do you habe any live/real experience? It should be very broker sensitive...IMHO.
I have noticed that the equity can get very volatil, hence I would prefer using DayTarget EA for collecting profits, percent or amount. Any opinion?

Happy trading, jdva

Yes, it is possible, I did implement it before.
The question is:
What to do after?

Bauta, together with max lot size setting, could you please also add %equity lot size option?

Typically all you can do is wait wait wait for days ... weeks ... months ... maybe years for prices to return to the same range ... meanwhile downdraw ... maybe trade other pairs if you have enough margin and leverage and ...

One more suggestion, could a setting be added to control the timeframe used for trading? This would enable more control of the accumulation by using moving average of different timeframes.

A solution can be, open positions in the scalp mode, to a certain level, and then move to GrideSizeFactor equal to ADR20days.

In about 6 hours I'll activate closure mode (if not sooner after 1%) until Sunday. Between that and not trading on Friday I should be able to avoid NFP whipsaw and avoid getting into possible bad trade until things return to "normal". Anyway, should be nearly flat activity until NFP. This is on regular EG104.
