So this is my new test for the next few weeks which all being well will then become live: Reduced account size to £1000GBP Rene MultiSymbol Controller to ensure just one pair at a time. HGBnDnSSnFB on 15 pairs looking for setups, Reduced grid of 5, Reduced Sixths to 1440, Trade both ways if market in the middle deactivated. APTM to manage all trades setup using account currency with £5 BE + JS, £30 SL, £100TP |

V 1d is in post 1. The bot was not reacting as intended to the FollowAdverseMarketWithStopOrders input aqnd I have fixed this. Watch the default inputs; they are effectively my setfile and may not suit you. DIYers, the easiest way to add the fix is to copy this over the top of the existing void FillGapsWithStopOrders() function starting at line1117: Code: Select all |

So far so good.. EURJPY is the first setup that triggered today so this is my play for this week and looks like it could be a good un. Just a note to say I only realized today thanks to Tomasso that the currency settings for SL/TP/JS/BE with APTM are internalized within the EA so for anyone trying the set files I posted above don't stress that you don't see a fixed SL/TP sent behind each order. I'm going to run with this as posted but you can easily change to an ATR based SL/TP/JS/BE with APTM instead of my GBP settings if you prefer. And if using a bigger than £1000 account would need to do this to scale up anyway. |

Week #1 of my test using TJF's settings, but using No Grid. In theory this would allow me to trade larger lot sizes and trade more pairs and break up my risk into several different trades at a time. Right now I'm not discriminating on better or worse looking setups. Ran the EA on 10 pairs, but only six trades for the week - pretty much break even, which is not bad for a crazy trading week. Have a great weekend! |

I got hammered with just the EURJPY grid partly because APTM currency management didn't kick in as intended .. so I lost the early profits on the table at the start of the week. Next week will change to ATR based settings so I can see what's it doing and ensure the SL are there but drawdown stayed below 10% so I reckon the money management of 1 pair per £1000 for this grid is ok. Next week will be interesting... |

.. thought I'd do a before and after election results. Currently a very positive bounce back week +8.4% not bad for one pair at a time trading (so still just EURJPY carried over from last week) and if this was live I would have closed all by now for sure. |

Week #2 of my test using TJF's settings, but using No Grid. I am liking this more and more! 10 trades for the week running on 16 pairs. Up a total of 459 pips. With my breakeven first week, things are looking up. I left this running through the election, but had I closed the GBPJPY trade before the election, the results would have been about 100 pips lower. Low risk, small number of trades open. I may look at other options as well for when to close the trades, but I'll leave this demo running as-is all through June. Have a great weekend! |

Well done.. Buy low, sell high, Superslope and Flying Buddha is an awesome combination whichever way it is traded. We owe huge thanks to Steve for enabling them all together in this EA. |

Yes, a very, very big thanks to Steve for making all of this possible! I do a lot of custom programming in other programming languages, and over the years have often had to modify code written by someone else. I can count on less than one finger the number of times I've modified someone's code where it was as well documented and organized as what Steve is doing in his EA's. If you've ever wanted to play around with different ideas on an EA, Steve has made it all possible, not to mention providing the forum in the first place! Not only that, but if you're having a down week, Steve always brings a smile to your face when he writes some of his entertaining replies, even if you're the one who made the foolish comment in the first place to earn one of his replies. Steve, everyone here can't thank you enough times for everything you've done!! |
