Thanks Steve for this gem.

Leaving aside the possibility of early promise fading into the background because we have just been lucky, thanks actually go to Bob. All SB does is trade when the indi presents a signal. A monkey could have coded it. <Ignores cries of, "A monkey did">.

Oops. I just noticed TB was not taking CT buys. Heaven only knows why I did not notice sooner - only been watching all afternoon. Bog-standard basic coding bloop.

Did someone mention monkeys?

Fixed in 1a in post 1.

Steve,

Did you see my earlier comment about trading times? When it reaches the time to end trading it just leaves trades hanging as there is no reverse signal to close them. I have a feeling this one night do a lot better in prime hours - London/early NYC.

Cheers,
Dave.

No it doesn't. It stops trading. I doesn't stop monitoring. As do all my bots and have done since the dawn of time.

Just wrote a reply as I know that is your standard practice Steve then I realised it might be related to the CT Buy issue. I just checked and all my "orphaned" trades were sells so it could well be.

Cheers,
Dave.

I put it on the H1, all pairs.
Eyeballing charts this could be close to the Holy Grail.
Entry's are spot on, both with and against the trend.
Let it rip for à few weeks and see if some timeframes should be excluded.
Exciting times, with all these NB spin-offs.

The M1 EU festival came to an end and normal M1 service was resumed. It was fun whilst it lasted though.

So, now my demo has reverted to the H4 that I think Bob originally intended all this for. We shall see what comes in the future. In the meantime gals and galesses, play away and see what works for you.
