Quick update on this EA - appreciate every one's comments about the system, but thought an update was warranted as Steve did take the time to code it for me. The first demo's platform froze on Nov 2 - the stats up until then are in the attached pic. It had made 2.29% on a 3K balance. The current demo started Nov 5 so I started that with an opening balance of $3K + $70 being closed profits of first demo. This hasn't had a lot of trades but has still made a 2.38% gain. At this stage I am still using, at times, a bit of discretion for exits. I will continue to test this EA even though more experienced traders and tests show it may not be a good one, but perhaps along the way I may find an extra filter or something, early days, but so far so good. Current stats here. http://www.myfxbook.com/members/tradobos/dpc2/423356 Cheers, and fingers crossed, because every time I say something is working it usually takes a turn for the worse |

Entries and SL are exactly per the rules. TP based on BreakEvenTargetPips=20, BreakEvenTargetProfit=5, and HalfCloseEnabled=true. |

The EA is fine until it doesn't stop out like it's supposed to. Had two trades yesterday that didn't close out per the manual system rules. Glad I'm demo. Rob |

Thanks RJo, I will set your ea up on some charts...I'm actually pretty keen on this strategy, and finding Steve's EA doesn't seem to take all trades or close properly at times. I've actually been trying to code my own version ps. I'm sure Steve will get a chuckle out of me attempting to code |

Rjo, sorry for the dumb question first up...but where do I enter Lot Size for the trade? |

No worries--it's a strange input. B_Symbol_LS_0 for buy, and S_Symbol_LS_0 for sell. Then you have your standard TP, SL, and Trailing Stop in pips.[/quote] Ok, figured that out just before you posted, but put lot size in all those Symbol inputs lol. I understand now. I've started to put the EA on my charts and it took a trade immediately and still 2 hrs away from daily open. Also an error popped up saying there was an error that would affect the trade logic...not sure that was because I put the lot size in all the Symbol inputs (now fixed) or if this is an error due to opening the trade at the wrong time? |

RJo, Thanks for this EA, I will set it up on a demo for this week and can compare the two results. When I get some trades I will post my statement for others to compare. Cheers |

Thanks for the info RJo - those trades opened here as well, 1.6007 and 1.0442. Still open in small d/d. Neither of those 2 did trade on The7 though will keep comparing Cheers |

Hi RJo - so do you have already any trading results documented by a myfxbook acc for a longer time ... or isn't the bot so far bugfree and you are improving it, that means you have to fix the code furthermore ? |
