Today's London hours forward test screen shot attached. Please note this is not even demo trading -- just test trading within the VPS -- so no slippage at all.

I am sorry, Gary, that this is happening.

I believe this is not necessary. However, the code needs to be made more effective, and I am continually doing so. The forward test results posted above are a result of improved code. We shall see what the future holds.

I am successfully trading the essentials of the present trading logic for years and cannot see why it cannot be translsted into a profitable auto-trader.

I'm seeing thousands of trades in the last year (trading 24/5) if I use a SL, which is the only way I can get it to show a profit. This thing catches an occasional nice move, but it's way too eager to jump in. It takes lots and lots of losses and those eat up the profits. The entry is just not working very well.

The trick is to prevent re-entry after most exits. Please note the code I sent you had the following warning:

Code: Select all

//Strategy Exits
{need to address re-entries (if Trading Conditions persist) after exits}

I think I have the matter of un-wanted re-entries under control. Again, time will tell.

Thank you for your efforts in getting this right. Highly appreciated.

I don't know swingONE and Khalid_TEST_real is also a ea.It's not important.
The important thing is how can I better use of commissioning the ea. The ea no instruction. Don't know you can give me some help. Many parameters I don't know how to set up.

I am doing my best to complete a manual/guide; but things keep cropping up and this is taking longer that I first anticipated. However, it shall be completed sometime this week.

In the meanwhile, please test the EA with default settings. Please do not worry if it does not make money because it will throw up lot of useful information on the basis of which profitable settings can be determined.

3 minute is my favourite time frame for intra-day trading, but I had switched to 5 minutes because Empty4 has no M3!

Hi all,

Nice stuff but are you sure that all is working fine here?. Please take a look to attached picture. Trigger is when price is below MA and STO should be above 55.

Thanks

I am sorry, morepipsspls, I do not quite know what STO stands for?
