Hi Tommaso, one more question and I stop harassing you :lol:

If I set "MinSRHitForTPZone" to zero, would MM consider any SR zone disregarding the hit number or would MM consider this option to be deactivated and not consider SR zones at all ?

Cheers,

Zyp
Hi Zyp,

you are always welcome :D
With your setting she will consider any SR zone disregarding the hit number .

Cheers :)

Hi, Zypip or anybody else, can you show some data which would confirm your observation?

PS I have to get back on track since my VPS disappeared, it was actually shut down without warning and my demo account is no longer clean, but anyway it's all in green :D

Hi Mike,

no specific data to show. I just realize that when pa comes near a SR zone it will most of the time react to it. It will either go through or bounce. By manually taking 50% of my trade near the "next" SR zone I would lose less (often break even by the time MM was closing the trade) if it bounces and earn less (50% less) if it goes through. I just find it less frustrating than seeing some profit turning into unrecoverable loss and I still let 50% run to abide by Phil's primary rule. I use the unified settings on every suggested pairs except for gold.

Cheers,

Zyp

Good to hear :)
I think Zyp's suggestion is very interesting and I will test it next week too, looking at some charts it seems to make sense for some pairs. Too I am experimenting with different CSS exit and entry strategies using daily and H4 timefrime and latest experiment is using MACD slope, so something is always going on..

Cheers and a great weekend for all :)

Hi,

I have a question, im doing alot of naked trading, im not using indicator at all, and i do trade on H4 and D1, now time i have start to use ur EA and i like it very much and i think it's doing great. But(there is always a but :-), trading on indicator dont give you always the best entry since they are lagging, the only thing that dont lag is PA and its here where i come in.
I dont know if it's possible but i have an idea to adjust the entry on the trades but what i would like is to set up all the indicators that are used by the EA and look on the rules for them and what's triggering the entry, but i dont want to enter the trade just then, i want to look to see if there is a chance of a better entry and then give that information to you and maybe you can manage to add that to the EA.

Maybe this sound totally idiotic but i do think it can be done and then you can raise the lot size if you get a better entry. And now i will talk against me self, i know that raising the lot size will not give you more profit, it's actually the other way around, by decreasing it you will get higher profit i know that, but since this EA can give us easy over 100pips on each pair.
Im just interested to see if its possible to mix this together and then i can be willing to rather then wait for 100 pips trade, make 5 entry on the same trade but with a higher lot size and only taking 20pips on each and hardly no draw-down.

So what i want it to know is how to set up the indicator(i know how but what values and which indicator), or even a greater idea, why not add that to the ea, for instance a value that looks like this "ShowIndi=true"
by setting this value, it add all the indicator to the chart.

Hahaha talk about asking for much.

hahaha hardly i do it me self, well what i would like is to set up all the indicators that your using in the EA to trigger a trade, i know for instance that the ea use Stochastic, Fractals, MA and so on, what i need is to add them and the rules to a chart so i see exactly what/when the trade is trigged, is that possible(of course it is) but could you give me an example ?

Hope that you understand now :-)
