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

I have added CSS in light of Bob's latest thread.

This thread is open again for the benefit of those of you who want to discuss issues related to the bot in post 1. Even the thickest of you here have now had time to work out for yourselves that it is possible to turn off any features that you do not want. I am quite good at this stuff these days.

Any cretin daft enough to insult me by asking someone else to post a previous version gains instant membership of the On Moderation sin-bin. Members of this august group can do bugger-all except read posts and download stuff posted in the forum. There is no exit from this sin-bin. The same applies to anyone moronic enough to post a previous version.

Cy pm'd me last week with a great method of taking advantage of the hedging stop only method. Coding this highlighted several errors in the code which invited whole swarms of bugs to take up residence. We are testing the latest version this week and I will release it when I am sure it works as intended. All previous versions contain these bugs and so should be considered unreliable. Where you have not been affected by them, it is because you have not been using various features, some of which date back to day 1. You have been lucky.

I trust I have made my feelings sufficiently clear. Do say if not, and I will elucidate with a tad more clarity.

So, if you have something useful to say here, then pipe up. If not, then shut up.

Thanks for confirming your positive results with this version Paul.

I have been playing with this and for anyone interested here is a 120 period Semafor CLOSE ALL set for H4 which I am using for an idea I got from the HGI + Sixths + bit of Semafor strategy posted here which I found interesting: http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... =88&t=4720

I have adapted slightly using 30LWMA rather than 8EMA and RAD / Trend for trigger no Wavy since there is no Sixths just the 120 Semifor to close all at similar extremes and once price crosses the 30LWMA trade back to the opposite 120.

Bit of fun for me but it looks promising...

Here's an example visually :

120 period semafor printed high so EA would be waiting for price crossing below 30LWMA for setup and first RAD or TREND signal short to trigger stop and limit grid entry.

:jump:
here's my attempt trading this. Set file attached. The closures are important. I use a basket manager to jump stop at 15$

Hi All. I report my experience with this fabulous EA.
After some months of experiments, during I made somehow good profits but blown them away
overtrading, I kept always in my mind Nanningbob's mantra ("trade the way you can trade another day)
and I set up an 8-pairs EA systems (for the very precise V1Z, TF 1H, jumping stop loss 15 pips, hard stop loss 50 pips, stop and limit order system).

The result was astonishing:
3 weeks and half a huge and wonderful 1875% (from 36€ to 706€), with a 56% win percentage and a 9% drawdown.
This is the myfxbook link:

Last two weeks: the same system keep loosing steam without any apparent reason.
In your opinion, is it the brexit effects that causes alla major pairs going in a "huge" range with big volatility
or the broker learned to play against me? (IC markets, ECN broker)? :x

Hi. You said that you had a hard stoploss of 50 pips.
The myfxbook link shows a loss of 870 pips at worst trade pips.
