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

Have a play with the attached folks. Pop it onto a blank chart - it trades the tf it is loaded onto. There is the usual AlwaysOn feature, so remember to disable Experts before making changes to the inputs.

It is far from finished and there may be bugs. Please do not tell me about them; I shall spot them myself.

Also, no requests for explanations please. I don't really mean, "please". I will start a new thread when ready and explain everything in detail. Just play with it on demo until then.

Coders, any of the usual inputs that have the extern removed are there for future development and not yet implemented.

One of the things I am working with Milanese and Elixe is getting the indi to do one signal to a candle and having that arrow stick. Then we also are working on no more signals until a real 2nd signal is given or a separate entrance exit point. This will really help with the EA in not giving a bunch of trades too close together. If you are going to multi-level trade there has to be some spacing between entrances for this to work. So hopefully we will have some corrections to the indi next week.

Lovely. In the meantime the multi-trader development continues apace and is going to be much more flexible than the existing one.

Steve/ Bob,

For what its worth, just an observation I made whilst playing around with this indi & EA this week on various time frames:

Signals can be filtered by looking for confirmation from a signal on a neighbouring timeframe. The charts below show a 24 hr period from a couple of pairs. I marked signals on the 15min chart with dotted lines - green for buys, red sells (regardless of trend or CT). I then moved up to the 30min & highlighted where signals appeared on the same candle as on the lower TF. This appears to filter out some of the bad signals & pretty much nails the market swings of the day.

Obviously this is only visually back testing and is far from a thorough or scientific analysis. However I have next week off work so I will be looking at this in more detail on live markets.

Great work on the EA by the way, and of course thanks to Bob for the indi.

These are my results with SBSTSN, version 1d, on H1, OOTB with the listed pairs, trading last week. Not bad, and the results would have much better, if I would have closed the basket before London Open on Friday.

A huge "Thank You" go to Steve and Bob, for their relentless efforts and I am looking forward to testing the basket version next week.

Looks great ! All that without additional interventions - no manual intervention, no MPTM ?

Nice one renexxxx, my SB60M with OOTB settings also closed with 8,36% profit (or 545 pips).
But it could have performed better because on wednesday it was as high as 16,xx %.

But i won't cry, 8% in one week is still amazing :cheer: :yahoo:

Yes, that's right. Totally hands-off, with no MPTM.

Looks great ! Which version are you using ? I'm using v 1D on all pairs except EURCHF, my result on H1 is no where near yours.
