Can someone clearly explain what BreakEvenProfitPips does (Baulda- MPTM), and how it works? Is it the same as BreakEvenPips (ShellyNow).?

Thanks!

Sam

Yes. I think. Bearing in mind that I do not know which thingy you are asking about here.

Steve, Steve, Steve... Now you decide to come out of hiding? :lol:

I guess I figured it out on my own. I make little books of reference notes about some of the EAs, trying to help me remember what does what.

Could someone please explain how to scan for trade set-ups?
I am used to trading maybe 4 major pairs so to scan through 50 pairs is alittle overwhelming
and not sure if there is a faster way to do it. Could someone share their process that works for you?
Thanks Much

I would suggest that you NOT scan 50 pairs. Why not just use 20?

Jemook uses a 27" monitor ( I bought one too) and you can put up 11 or so pairs. Read how he does it here: http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... f=43&t=640

Believe me, there is plenty to analyze with 15 pairs.

Thanks Sam! Do you look through each chart, or just use slope values or similar?

Take baby steps. Open one chart. Compare the system's criteria, e.g. slope value, pivot points, etc., to what you see on that chart. Does that chart meet the criteria? When you understand it, move on to another.

Baby steps.

Why not try using the Multibob EA on a demo account to give you a heads-up? Set the parameters to your own preferences then, when it throws up a trade, do a manual check to see if your criteria are confirmed before committing?

Gary I have the same issue with the histograms and others have reported it too. They're fine with my VantageFX account but totally messed up with Bully Pepperstone. Vantage is GMT(0), Bully Pepperstone GMT(+3) so I guess it's something to do with server time.
Do you still have trouble using Bully Pepperstone? It seems fine on my account.

Just for the record, both Vantage and Bully Pepperstone are now both GMT+3.
