for any newcomers please let me guide you

READ POST ONE

Given my experience tonight, you might be well advised to post twice every time. Start with this one, then upload the post you actually want to read.

Don't count on it working though.

Sorry. Not in the best of all possible moods tonight.

I am up and running with pending orders placed on: AUDJPY and EURJPY

My two PC Accounts show allready different trades. On one acc GBPJPY range arrow down (trade not taken) on the other acc Trend arrow down (trade taken). I saw this before last weeks but thought it was my overloaded PC, but currently only 2 Empty4 open. Also I don't have pending AUDJPY und EURJPY like rapple but EURAUD and NZDJPY + on one account GBPJPY. Since the HGI indi is showing different symbols I think the cause is not in HGB.

EDIT: also spotted on other pairs some differences like on NZDJPY on one chart two blue waves and on the other one only one.

-------------------
Please post in this thread if you are willing to participate - you must setup a VPS or be willing to run your computer 24/5.

In your post, write the computer you will use and the number of Empty4 instances you will be able to run with HGB & 28 pairs (amazon VPS is one).

EG.
Amazon VPS (1)
or
Home computer (3)
-----------------

this is important so that we can keep track of who is participating and so i can add you to the rollcall and assign a unique number. ive just had 2 people complete the poll and assign themselves the same unique number. seriously, READ POST ONE.

in other news. the markets have opened! let the forward testing begin!!

if you havent already got everything setup, its too late, wait for the next round.

if you did have everything setup before the market open (12 midnight EET) then please still fill in the poll and leave a comment there.

p.s read post one

Hi Trendinator

Unfortunately I stuff up my demo by having two charts open for each pair. (more care, less haste).

I have removed the extra pairs (and all pendings) but you may need to remove me from the trial.

Sorry for the inconvenience

Kind regards Richard

Wow there are already some huge differences in the results and trades taken. Can only guess what the cause is.
some possibilities:
they haven't been setup correctly (human error)
Latency
Some bugs in the code
Timing of setup
Operating system??
Or some unknown factor we haven't considered

What do you guys think?

Hmmm I don't know. The set ups are completely ootb so that should negate the set up problems though not guaranteed I suppose. I wouldn't have thought platform or latency would be an issue either as it's not scalping style. I suppose we monitor and see how it pans out over the week.

Maybe by the end of the week we can look at the ones that have performed particularly worse than others. Unless of course someone knows why.

Seems odd as the one thing you would say was price feed differences, but seeing as we are all GP that can't be the case.

Has everybody set a MagicNumber for each instance? Otherwise it would be possible that one instance influences another?

I think hgb works with trade comments rather than magic numbers
