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.

I see a lot of interest in it even though the ea and thread were in the early stages of construction. It is mostly finished now and there is a lot to get your heads around, so it will be worthwhile downloading it when you have an hour or two to spare to work out what you want it to do.

A lot of the code is untested, so do not set it on any live accounts yet. It will replace SB once we are sure it is working as intended and I will not be developing SB any further.

:xm:
Read the effing manual, ok?

Afterprime is the official SHF broker. Read about them at https://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?p=175790#p175790.

I still suffer from OCCD. Good thing, really.

Anyone here feeling generous? My paypal account is always in the market for a tiny donation. pianodoodler@hotmail.com is the account.

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.
I'm also using version 1D on H1 charts, but only using the majors + GBPJPY.

Hi Steve,

Not sure to post this here or should go on Secret Bob, sometimes trendy.

Since I'm trading with Secret Bob 1i with the settings of 240 on TF 15 with great success and Bob just came up with a new update optional version use of the 60 MA.

Update V.11 eliminated update signal with every new candle. Arrows that disappeared in the past will now change colors showing where signals had been given. A 60MA version was also added. See notes inside V.11 folder. Page 13 will start the discussion of the latest update.
240v.11 buy.sell.zip
(95.67 KiB) Downloaded 149 times

My question is if by changing the settings to 60 MA in the Moving Average section will be enough for the arrows to appear accordingly with 60 MA or they will still follow the 240?

I'm asking to understand the mechanics of the EA and because you mention that you will not make any upgrades to Secret Bob.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Steve

Just to report that SB (1f) is going well for me on H1 (selected pairs, always in, MaxTrades =2, MaPeriod=0). I have included the EU chart which has made the most pips.

Profit was helped by a large move on a number of pairs which I did close manually as this is a Live account.

I am trying to get SBB to trade in a similar way with some issues that I have highlighted in the SBB tread.

Thanks Rap :clap: :clap:

The SB is trading OK but the GBPAUD isn't doing to good, 3 big losses and 3 big active losses. The stoc daily & weekly looks like it could be a good filter if it trades. Maybe turning off the CT would help. I'll try it and let you know.
I was using v1i !

Best of Luck

Ray

Thanks Ray! :good:
But, since I didn't download it 11 times, there seems to be others interested in it as well.
