Hi Frank, Andy, all, the main changes i made to the versions was on the RSI settings, detailed in the name and general tab of the relevant demos. I didnt like the 98/2 setting. I'm not code-literate, so i depend on what i read from posts like yours and other coders. The GEC strategy is also working for me. (admission- i never liked closures like this before). The % for the lots is also 'bugging' me, i dont like to trade with even 2%, so in reality i'd drop that. I have also seen the earlier characteristics of Bobs systems where they are dependant on trending, but Andy has somehow managed to code a much better entry point with 10.4. Thats the difficult part. Kudus to you Andy and all who help you develop this. cuz |

Hi I'm still testing 2.01a with RSI setting at 80/20. Performance is quite decent. Won $3650 since Apr 10 and currently with a drawdown of $250. The maximum drawdown, if I remembered correctly, is about $1000. Lately I notice that there are many of this "market is closed" error: 2013.05.10 16:11:02 Multi_10_4_EAv2.01a USDNOK.G,M30: CADCHF.G Multi_10_4_EAv2.01a OP_SELLSTOP order send failed with error(132): market is closed, BUY, Price 0.9177,Stop 0.9224,Take 0.9076 Wonder if anyone has the same problem and know how to fix it ! |

Cuz, I have the same identical setups like these without GEC closure feature. (I wanted to be sure that I am doing the right thing by applying GEC.) I can tell you that, with this method you need the GEC. All those accounts running only on TP and SL settings have 2 x larger DD than the GEC ones. Balance is similar but DD much larger. So it is proven that periodic closure is required to keep things in control. Frank |

Well guys, I'm pleased you like the EA, the latest version should run well, just turn the useCSS switch off and it will run as before, I also advise to set these settings: extern bool useFilterCurrencyNumber = true; //Allow a currency, like JPY to trade NumberToTrade as below extern int NumberToTrade = 2; // Allow a currency, like JPY to trade this number of trades at the same time, but will allow to add to open trades. They will only allow 2 trades of a specific currency to trade at the same time. Andy |

I am using the CSS option OOTB and have only had winners so far. Looks like it will typically take 2-5 trades per week, but lets see. I am fine with less trades. |

thanks for the hard work Andrew. I am not a fan of full automated trading though, is it possible to make this semi automatic, for example, I read the dashboard for potential trades and then I run this EA on specific pairs only instead of all possible pairs at the same time. Or this is already built in your EA too? If it does then my question is unnecessary |
