Bob and Shelley Again

[milanese]

I know this may be a stupid question, but I could not find the answer anywhere in the thread.
Do I need to use a different magic number on each chart?

No, you don't.

Cheers

I've been away a while but thought maybe posting the last month's BASA results for 3% risk with the standard H4 Shelley setup might be worthwhile as I stopped tinkering at this time. Demo but heading back to live soon.



Have a good New Year everyone . I'll be back when forex "life" returns to normal (although it seems Christmas was livelier than usual).

Cheers,
Dave.

Nice Dave...yep stop tinkering, I think BASA is tinkered out and as we all acknowledge it's not perfect it's still chugging away nicely after 5 months

May I pls know which version it is that is 'chugging away nicely after 5 months'? Thanks.

The current version in Post 1 - version 2p

[SWG123]

Actually current version is 2q.

[freeman]

Thanks ppl. Would I be correct in assuming that the current version 2q is not the version that fxozgirl has been running live for while, but rather 2p?

No you wouldn't, I am running the latest version, just got mixed up on versions

Is it possible to make the EA have an ATR based TP like the one for SL?

[MaddyMax]

occasionally, a strange concatenation
of coding bug, poor logic or criminal behavious by your market maker will cause
trades to open then close immediately for the loss of the spread.

I have exactly this Problem with my EAs they open and close instantly...only once so thats good... but about once a day so far. Problem is on two Broker (GKFX ans Sensus). Is there something that can be changed in the EA setting?

I have a very small account and therefor a small Margin. Does the EA close Trades automaticly if the Margin is to small.

No. You are expected to use the existing margin filters to avoid getting in that situation. Details in the user guide. If your account is so small that the existing margin filters will not protect you, then you cannot trade BASA.
