Do you still need backtesters ? I can help a little with my home and vps. Just let me know which one pairs do you still need to be bt.

BTW Great bot !
Hi sponn,
at the moment I'm on the new version 1.05 and in the next 2 weeks I need help for backtesting, e.g. AUDUSD, NZDUSD, EURAUD. As soon as I get the version working I will post it here.

So stay tuned.

Regards,
Banzak

So it will be waste of time to BT existing one (I believe that you have told something about a little changes in trading logic so new version will be trading more or less different than existing one).
I will wait then and help in BT when it will be ready.

Yes, it will be a waste of time, cause the backtesting is taking for a complete run for 2012 with me 4h....
And I realized that there are different results with different brokers also.

With the V1.05 I exchanged the 2 ema with a WPR and some function are completely different, so also the results will be different. The entry- and exist-points are better then in V1.04 and I'm not looking anymore in other timeframes (M30, H1). Everything is decided at M15.

The 1st trade will be a virtual trade that is triggered from WPR, if that is confirmed the basket will start depending on Bears&Bulls&WPR.

Hey hope you're good and looking forward to v1.05...

My install of v1.04 doesn't trade much and not in sync with your HotForex demo, is the EA sensitive to spread or slippage? and suggestions as i've only had 3 trades in around 4 weeks.

Thanks, JP

Hi JP,
the problem is that I've optimized the setfiles with my crim and there are some functions that are calculating the actual difference with the 2 ema... so there could be the problem... if the the requirements are not met at the ema cross... there will be no trade after...

This is the reason why I'm taking in the new version the WPR-indicator and there is no calculation necessary... :) Empty4 has some problems with calculating doubles.... The WPR returns only int-Values, so there will be less problems with different brokers, but let's see what the results will show.. ;) (Welcome to the miracle world of Empty4).

Banzak

Hi Solarwind,
I'm in the last testing phase and I'm doing backtests at the moment. I will post the results here as soon as I have something.

As you see in my signature, the V1.04a was running for 4 months good and destroyed the account on 4 days...

Thanks Banzak,
I did notice 1.04 was in trouble lately, however it did show plenty of potential previously.
Look forward to testing 1.05...

Thats absolutely right... this is the most tricky part in programming an ea, to handle that difficulties.
