I got about the same trades with Alpari UK

I closed out N/Chf when I realized the spread. It was showing as 3.7 but was actually 37...
Put that in the trash bin.

!? My N/F spread at PFG right now is 0.72791/0.72822 -- 3.1 pips. You sure you read that right??

Mine is .7261/.7298. Weird its only 4 digits. Crim is trader's way. Their ECN account is the same way.

If you're getting 37 pip spreads, you need a new crim!!

There's only a couple that way. Gbp/aud is 25. Only broker I can find for US with micro accounts (100 units). Any ideas on other ones?

[garyfritz]

I haven't looked at micros because those seem to be the ones that hold positions against you and jerk the price around to screw you. Mini orders they can generally pass through without playing games so the more reputable brokers mostly do minis. FinFX is supposed to be pretty good and they still take US clients. So far.

Hi,

I had at the start the next errors in the expert tab:

"Cannot open file 'C:\Program Files (x86)\HotForex Empty4 demo\experts\indicators\10.2 WeeklyOpenHistogram 2x1 4.29.ex4' on the GBPUSD,Daily"

You need to copy 10.2 indicators from FF thread, just for those who have same errors...

Bot just took a UJ trade Steve, it should have been short and it was....Good start

Have a great evening

Thanks. The bot took trades as appeared appropriate as I loaded it onto a lot of demo charts earlier. Wit a decent following wind, it looks as though I might have got the first bit right. That's a first.

On my manual trading demo, I have made a killing by using mptm to close out half the trade at +25 and moving the sl to BE +10 as Bob recommends. Rather than fight the complications of adding the half-close stuff to NB, I might remove all management features and tell people to use mptm for management. We shall see.

Cheers

Hi Steve,
the comment you made here is exactly what i had in mind for MPTM, to keep all settings blank in all the EA's i would use, (provided the EA's could be run on the same platform, eg not the BEAST), and do exactly what you're mentioning here. I'm testing with Symphonie for this, but i'm finding it difficult to to do what symphonie is supposed to do in the first place, by getting me in with the right direction and then letting MPTM do the rest. it would solve a lot of issues with all the settings needed, but i've just started to get on with the reading and feel there are sooo many angles for this. i would prefer to follow on your idea with direction from you, rather than start with my own damn ideas. I'm not very good at starting stuff but can continue if you want to see where this leads at a later stage?

May i ask if you've given this more thought or was this just a fleeting moment?
