Hi guys

sorry i posted the same kind of issues at HGImatrix
http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... &start=380

...you guys can check why there is a discrepancy.
for the BOEA , I would like to show one of the demo trade that the EA took here..
I am not sure what is wrong or what could be improved.

I am running boEA 2x1 and on the chart HGI v15.08 just to show me where the signals are.
When the order was taken, note that there are two yellow wavies and blue wavy.
These two disappeared from the current set of chart taken.

Note my SL at 183.200 , it hit...but according to the EA it is supposed to close the trade when there is an opposing wavyy. So question i hv is why did the trade not closed when there is an opposing wavvy? or did it formed only much later?

Sorry I am not trying to discount anything, just pointing out problems so that we all can make HGI and the EAs the best there is.

- How long have you been demoing?
- What version are you using?
- What timefram have you attached the EA to?
- Have you seen any missed entries yourself?
- Could you share your setfile?

Thanks for the feedback!

I'm testing 2x1 on D1. I use the HGI Matrix to check the signals, so far they are being taken correctly. My set file is very much OOTB except I use pending for all signals and the PT is always 30, even for the first trade.

I appreciate the work you are done here! I was over at HGB asking for a wavy to wavy EA I got directed to here. I will start testing & post my results. I trade primarily M15 to H1.

Have you given any thought to setting up the "GoldWaveInstantMarketTrade" as
a small Pending. I can't program but "GoldWaveInstantMarketTrade= Close(0) + 5 pip" , instead of making your first trade pending+20.

Thank You
Ray

Hi guys,

It looks like we have a little problem here: http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... 09#p114909
It was just a matter of time

to be honest ive been using build 765 on multiple demos for a while and I haven't experienced a lot of those worst case things, like EA's being randomly dropped, charts shutting down etc. not saying it doesnt happen to anyone ever, but im saying its not a totaly unusable mess, from my perspective as an EA tester and user anyways.

I also have had no difficulty with Build 765.

I was thinking on using an approach that should be less prone to execution issues, taking advantage on the solid entries but keeping it simple and stupid afterwards:

I'm preparing a post with the approach I'll be using in testing this on my 24/5 home machine, 11-12 demos running with the following common criteria:

- Running M15/H1 or H4 timeframes, but attached to M5 for precision (based on testing this should be irrelevant as attaching 2r to either M5 or M15 for trading on the M15 has yielded me the exact same entries, to the minute)
- Trend,Rad,Wavy, TrendWavy trades only
- all closures on opposite set to FALSE
- Everytick ON
- Max Trades of 6 per type, as to allow multiple entries at any given moment and collect more data
- Min dist between each type of trades: 6

The only differences between this demos will be the following:
SP and TP (or JS)

6670 HGIG - M15 - 40 SL - BEJS 25+2
6674 HGIG - H1 - 40 SL - BEJS 25+2
6682 HGIG - M15 - 60 SL - BEJS 35+2
6686 HGIG - H1 - 60 SL - BEJS 35+2
7204 HGIG - H4 - 55SL-25TP
7208 HGIG - H1 - 45SL-35TP
7212 HGIG - M15 - 45SL-35TP
7216 HGIG - H4 - 45SL-35TP
7220 HGIG - M15 - 55SL-25TP
7224 HGIG - M15 - 40SL-20TP
7228 HGIG - H1 - 55SL-25TP

After 3-6 months, we should be able to analyze the data collected, discard the shitty pairs, the shitty trading hours, and pick the "best" targets for each pair, which I'm sure will vary based on each pair's inherent behavior.

Anyone else is welcome to join me. I can share my setfiles, too.

First thing, is getting the EA working as it should, and then we can take on to the next step!

Hi!
Any updates on your different demos?
I am interested if you are getting BoHGB to do well on M15 in any of your settings?

I dont get any takeprofit values set to my orders. I am using TP on all initial and multipending trades on all trade types.
I am testing M15 and H4 and D1 on same account 2x1 version, but different magic numbers. Most fixed TP values is set at 30 on H4 and D1, and 8 on M15. No trades has closed in profit but several trades is way beyond my TP levels.
Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

Attaching my setfiles.

I've only been running them for a week, since I've only managed to fix my missing trades issue by installing a software that restarts my platforms once every hour.

I'll post an update in a couple of weeks

They're not doing too good, I must say.
