OK, Bauta, you are using Channel-Static...why not using Channel-Floating (center of channel moving with new trades)?
How does the Channel style system react on Red News (NFP, FED etc.)? Is it dangerous to let it work 24/5 without interruptions?
Symmetry has some kind of filter for important news, spikes...Channel style not!?

Happy trading, jdva

Bauta, Will it be possible to create a parameter that will force the multiplier to activate from X trades? Example (1,1,1,1,1,2,4,8,16....)
MA and Time frame can be external variable?

Thanks

GRID trading does not use timeframe. Results must be the same at any timeframe.
MA? We should not use MA at all. I did setup an internal and proprietary MA to filter executions on big market moves while in symmetry mode. There are not settings required for this MA. (timeframe, bars, period, etc)
thanks for your support, bauta

I will create a demo account and I will test floating channel mode. Note I did trade symmetry for more than a year with acceptable results. Now I am trading live and demo static channel mode. Results are good so far. Note that the original expandgrid is based on channel mode.
For channel, I am using v036c defaults then change s_MagicNumber=0, c_MagicNumber=301 and Dynamic_Percent_Increase=10

I will keep you updated on this forum.

thanks, bauta

Bauta,

I see you are located in USA. Does this system have the OCO orders between levels to get around the hedging rules in US? I am not seeing any tests show losses, so I assume these are set up as foreign accounts? Also, what would it take to add in OCO? I'm a novice coder and I can't figure out your objects in the EA, and I don't want to start from scratch since your EA is already done.

Thanks for sharing, and thanks for your time.

For Channel_Floating explorer, I am changing c_GridSizeFactor to 6. Trying to scalp a bit more.

Hi Bauta!
I have been following your conversation here for some time.
BAUTA your EA, EG104 is an excellent, high-alicious job.
If I may, I have some suggestions:
1. Must have the opportunity to make comments. It is necessary that the Broker does not know which of the EA is to be used. There is a lot of Brokereid, who are trying to sabotage the trade.

2. MM, that if the financial balance grows to a certain size, then the EA itself, automatically increases a lot. Of course, with the possibility to turn on or turn off MM.
Of course you must also be able to specify the size of the financial balance, in which the EA makes a lot.

3. Must also be able to use the financial part of the residue (the percentage of the financial commitment). It is necessary, when the use of several EA for EA, so that each could use their part of the financial commitment.
May be you have already had the chance?
The manual could explain more, because often one and the same function on different terms.

Best regards!

Hi Bauta!
Maybe I have missed something, whether a request should be EG104 the file mq4,
otherwise a test such as a black box?

Best regards!

Channel Floating Mode FAILED.
Please do not trade this mode live till optimal settings are found.

Too bad that channel didn't work - you need very deep pockets for it to work indeed!

1 question and 1 request:
Question: if s_WeightDirection=true AND s_WeightQtyMulti=1, is that setting equal to the setting: s_WeightDirection=off ??
Request: can you introduce a GlobalVariable that shows the number of Charts that actively trade EG104? So those that are either **TRADING PAUSED** or **FLAT** or **DISABLED** or **AUTO TRADE NOT ALLOWED** are NOT counted, only those that are actively trading and can take on additional positions if need be.

Thanks!

Please note channel static is working, the failure is for channel floating mode. It needs more optimization before going live.
yes, correct, if WeightQtyMuti=1 then WightDirection is disabled.
counting charts? I will revise it.

download v036_StaticChannel.set.txt on post one. You may change c_GridSizeFactor to 6 for more aggressive approach.

Excellent work master Bauta. I must say that I see a lot of potential in this EA. Could you put a poll together to see who is using what style the most? Thanks!
