- Most Forex traders lose all their money.
- Using the robot posted here in trading Forex does not guarantee success.
- Trading this robot could lead to serious financial loss.
- Trading this robot without understanding its underlying trading strategies guarantees traders will lose their money.
- This is not a set-and-forget ea; there is no such thing and anyone who tries to claim there is, is either stupid or lying. This ea requires frequent manual intervention.
- At best, a trading robot is only 90% as good as the manual strategy it trades. At best. At worst, it can be much less effective. If the strategy is rubbish, so is the robot.
- To trade this robot, you have to understand:
- How to use EA's.
- Super Slope from http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... 101&t=4888

- My peak hilo indi. Download the indi and a pdf explaining what it does from viewtopic.php?p=159559#p159559.
- The concept of a swing high and swing low as measured by the Fractals indicator.
You need the "SPB core library.mqh" file in your platform's Include folder. Download it from viewtopic.php?p=159559#p159559
This EA enters buy trades following a swing low and sells after a swing high. It uses the Slopey Peaky Bob engine found at viewtopic.php?p=159559#p159559. Read SPB's User guide for information about everything apart from this trade trigger.
Pippy is different to Swingy in that he calculate the average points per swing over the previous 100 swings. He trades only if the previous swing hilo was >= the average. He runs the averaging calculation function at the open of your broker's D1 candle. Pippy uses a Mean averaging technique; I bit of a blunt instrument I know, but I am hoping that calculating over 100 swings will help iron out the effect of the occasional massive candle.
