there are just too many variables that a human has to intervene most of the time.. there is no reason to even try an EA.. the EA's are never fully automated. and that's the entire point of this.

if i have to be here trading along side the EA, what's the point..

i'm done with this ..

great EA, thanks steve..

if you have any bad comments for me.. you can shove em

Hi Steve,

To add flexibility to the usage of your HGI scripts, is it possible to add a feature that the first trade will start at the mouse position when the script is dragged on to the chart. Something like the Easy Order scripts but with multiple orders capability.

This would be very helpful to the HGI manual traders.

Cheers !

Yeah, market is slow but D1 still gave me about 900 pips+ in the last two weeks trading manually which is better than letting HGB running on its own.

That's some good result kwchau. I'm sending you my money.

The market has been so flat this week and yet I still made +316 pips with HGB version 2z...

Cheers!

Hmmmm ..... lots of frustration here, but a fair point which is why it is still here.

A timely reminder that trading forex is tough - really tough, either with or without the help of some automation and most give up sooner or later.
Many out there still believe the 'Holy Grail' exists ..... it doesn't.

A wake up call from betterskin to the dreamers looking to make a quick easy buck ....

I agree.. this is a great indicator by itself and it loves the higher TF's. great job

Hi TonyHarmony

Are you using the EA with OOTB Settings?

I've tweeked a few settings e.g. lowered the number of multitrades. My results are nowhere near as good as yours. In fact making a loss.

All on demo though

Any ideas why the trading hours function isn't working for me?

I'm running v2z with 16.04 and it's taking trades out of hours. I've restricted trading to just the morning using the entry: "+07.00,-12.00,". It's not responding to this on local or even broker time - checked broker time just in case.

I've had it working before on other versions and I don't think I'm doing anything differently but I just wanted to check if anyone else has the same issue?

Any pointers in the direction of the obvious gratefully received!

Thanks.
