Secret Bob. Sometimes trendy, sometimes not.

EA's inspired by nanningbob's work here, especially those based on his 240 Moving Average trend detection filter.

Nice results.

What time frame are you both trading on? Any special settings or OOTB?
H1 all pairs - Gertje spotted H1 might be the sweet spot.

I limited the trades to 2 from the default 5 - just eyeballing the chart it seemed best but time will tell. Now that I think of it I might set up another demo with 5 trades and see how they compare.
Indeed, H1 all pairs except EURGBP and EURCHF.
OOTB, changed SL and TP to 500pips to avoid early closure.

0.01 lots per $1.000,-
In 2 hours time this morning, 0.5% closed and over 2% floating, not all pairs trading yet.

SB was opening multiple sell trades on the same M15 candle, so I had a look at the code. Usual stuff - copy/paste/fail-to-edit bloop. Fixed in V 1b in post 1.

Or, go to line 2127 and change
if (OrderOpenTime() > LatestBuyOpenTime)

to

if (OrderOpenTime() > LatestSellOpenTime)

then recompile.

Read the effing manual, ok?

I just checked my shells - they do have the same bloop, so be aware those of you using them.

I guess it is a BIG monster on all timeframes, until the shit hits the fan....
Enjoying myself immensely though.

I have 8 closed trades banking 160pips, with less than 30pips max DD.
All this in 4 hours time, with half of the pairs firing.

Just check the H1 charts with the big GBP moves this week, mouthwatering.... :party:

Careful with M5 - maybe best not to run 24*5 as my M5 demo didn't fare well overnight.

You are right, this EA need to be enabled for a very limited time during the day

Some of these bots you make are silly good at making pips fast. I just had ten minutes so popped it quickly on 20 charts on 15 min timeframe about 12 pm Uk time. its 2:44 on a Friday and it's closed 0.8% and has 4% of draw - up trades currently all in 3 hours after 12 ON A FRIDAY! Mad! So would be tempted to close all trades before market close ready for a new week.

Amazing, wonder if it can do this in all sorts of markets? Will set up some 1H and 4H demos too, see how they do over the next week. Thanks Steve and guys for the inspiration behind the bots, very impressive.

Cheers

Hi all,

As Expected trading the EA on M5 is very dangerous, I will move my testing to H1 which should be the most reliable Timeframe

Have a nice weekend
