First Blood!!! LOL I just checked and I have already had one long trade for profit and have a second that is open. Since I set the daily percent to 2%, if this trade hits profit the EA will stop for the day and start again tommorrow. Under live account I would close it right now, but I am letting play. This will test to see if the zigzag trend us correct, too. John, this trade was made on the broker u are testing, forexware. No trade as of yet on CMTrading, Kadaa. EDIT: Actualy there were already two trades, that have closed in profit. You can see...

Hold on bro, let me see if I can figure out a solution.

I use PeppreStone, Oanda, Fxchoice, Tradersway, TraderKing for all my live trading. No issues with using EAs on these and in general no problems with them either.

Hi what do you need to know?

One thing is for sure, you need the ZigZag,ex4 indicator. If that is not in your indicator folder the #MTF zigzag will not work.

you can always find all the latest EAs and Indicators t:

Version 51.

Sort of critical change. I noticed that when the EA is initially loaded that it did not load the upperTrend filter. It would only load it when the next period or day or whatever you set happened. After that the EA had the right upperTrend direction. So John may your losses on GBPJPY where due to that.

I also made some corrections to the way it closed trades and or calculates profit.

OH, I also made the MTF_ZigZag line visible. That way u can see what the upperTf ZigZag looks like at the lower TF. The EA looks for the last top or bottom to determine trend direction. The zigzag setting do not have the default settings,, they have my SECRET SAUCE settings LOL....

For now just use the defaults.
Set the risk at whatever percent u feel like. I am using 1%
I am aiming for 2% a day.

Please use this latest version, cause like i mentioned the earlier version did not detect the upperTF zigzag correctly so as a consequence that EA may of taken trades in the contrary.

What u also need to do is observe... make note of how positive the trades get. That way next time you just set your TP to something like that.
Right now we are just observing, what is the profit, how long does it last, etc etc.

In this short sell, all was right to set up the trade. But the #3dot was below and the stock was not above the 20line so this made this trade a loss.

John I didn't get that trade. I double checked the code and it has that the
stoch_sig>20 with the stoch_main>stoch_sig for a sell condition

Hopefully u had showDebug on so we can see what happened in the Experts log.

EDIT: IF the dash line in the stoch window is the signal then it looks like it is above the 20.

Here's what I got so far for this same broker:

I am still using EA_47 but I am thinking about downloading the EA_51 but im confused by what you mean when you say the zigzag settings don't have the default settings. Can you explain this before I download the EA_51 because if the zigzag mtf show that the Zigzag is on the bottom then the EA will only buy right or does your secret sauce settings tell the EA to not to buy?

John:
I forgot to put the pivots on the previous image. This is what I didn't get a trade, no pivot fail.
I re-uploaded v51 onto the server, just in case I messed and gave u guys the a copy that was old but with the new name.
http://xm7.info/ea/freebie/

Since I cannot edit the previous post I am re-posting the EA again here.
Also make sure to download pivots_v3 again. As you can see my pivots are to what you have.

Checkz. The MTF_ZigZag has the settings hardcoded. I didn't place them as inputs so even if u are using v47 you still have the same MTF_ZigZag with the settings hard coded. LOL no secret sauce lol ... the settings are 20,10,4 . The usual zigzag ones are different of course.

I really recommend u use v51 cause with v47 there are errors in they way it detects the upperTF and it is liable to close trades that it did not start, like from another EA that you might have running.

Jess

EDIT: that's right if the ZigZag shows a top on the upper TF and price is below it on the lower then we are taking shorts..
If ZigZag shows a bottom on upperTF and price on lower tf is above it the EA looks for longs.
