| Post subject: | My personal Spider setting... |
This is not a recommendation, only my own comfortable setting with the spider...also very much like the attached supply/demand levels as an indicator(II_SupDem.mq4), which I found in Ribelo thread: http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... p?f=5&t=43 I trade only eurusd 30min chart, initial SL: 67, with ATR setting: extern int AtrPeriod=150;// 0 turns off atr extern int AtrTimeFrame=0;//Allows tf independent of the chart. 0 means current chart extern double TpAtrMultiplier=3; extern double SlAtrMultiplier=2; All other filters set to: false. |

I'm running spider on 15m eurusd, gbpusd and usdchf. It's doing well so far, but I've set trading hours to 7 till 16:00 as it was losing overnight what it made in the day. OOTB settings. will post a statement at the end of the week. Running on a Cowboy Go Markets demo. Cal |

I still have it running on an EU M15 dem, trading the euro hours. It chinkers along quietly making a few pips here and there.  |

Hi all I have been running simple spider OOTB since 8/11/11 on alpari demo M30 24/7 on 26 pairs. I dont know how to upload here and the more trades spider makes the less history gets detailed in the reports so here are the results. starting balance- 10270 current balance- 11467 maximum drawdown i have seen on any report- 2.17% win %- about 49% number of trades- over 2000 plus (all sells and i have checked the obvious reasons) balance increase- about 11% It has been consistant and i am waiting for something to go wrong. |

I know how you feel. Thing is, spider posted a simple system that he has been trading profitably for ages. It is not a get-rich-quick thingy. spider has stated that this is a slow equity builder. The idea here is to test the bot on demo for a few months. If it survives, then start a live account with a small deposit and leave SS to do its thingy slowly. SS rarely goes a day without making 30 pips. I started trading forex in 2007. I wish, wish, wish, wish, wish that I had made 30 pips a day ever since. I might not yet be rich, but I would be a hell of a lot better off than I am right now. It could be that your use of 26 pairs will eventually blow the account when the perfect storm blows up. On the other hand, spider perfected his system trading, I think, EU manually. One of the wonderful things about using an ea is that we do not have to monitor all our charts and trades all the time, so we can experiment much more. It could be that you have found the answer to all our searching for a system that will be profitable long-term. We shall see. What I can say is this; keep your trial going. it looks as though you might be on the right track. |

Hi all! Noting that this is one of the few EAs that Steve has traded live, I downloaded it to try it for myself. When I did so and ran it through the MQL Editor, compiling got me the following error messages: 'WinUser32.mqh' - cannot open the program file 'stdlib.mqh' - cannot open the program file Clicking on the error messages directed me to the following two code lines: #include <WinUser32.mqh> #include <stdlib.mqh> Can anyone tell me how to solve this issue? Many thanks!! JJ Johnson |

Your platform has corrupted files. Uninstall the platform and delete all the folders left behind. Then start again. Not only is Empty4 total crap, but it is total crap that corrupts itself from time to time. It makes Windows look good. That is how bad Empty4 is. Spider is really good so long as you trade it as Spiderforex intended it. |

Hi Steve, I have been testing spider and I'm thinking of preventing spider to "overtrade" within the same day and lose the profit gained within the same day. Hence, I ask for your kind consideration to add a win-stop/loss-continue filter: Win-stop/loss-continue filter logic: 1. if spider makes a win within the start and end hours, the bot stops trading within the start and end hours for the same day, and continues only the next day's start and end hours. 2. if spider makes a loss within the start and end hours, the bot continues until there is a win within the start and end hours for the same day and then the bot stops trading for the same day. The bot will continue its trading the next day's start and end hours. In addition, will you consider making the start and end time to have both hours and minutes too? Thanks! |

This functionality exists in the DoneForTheDay() code I posted a bit back. It has settings for MaxWinningTrades and MaxLosingTrades (among others). Perhaps Steve can look over it and see if it is worth adding. If he is too busy with other EAs (he's got several in the early stages) I'll take a crack at updating it with the new time check (includes multiple sessions and hours/minutes) as well as the DoneForTheDay() code.
