In Fratelli document that mentioned need on 10 minute time frame , so we should run the EA on Empty4 Offline M10 Chart?
Yes, you would use the M10 offline chart. I am not sure if the indicator they use on the thread supports EAs as i use another one that i have attached that i know works with EAs.

I use the original converter, but there really seems to be a problem with the EA. I attached it today in the morning before asian open and it didn't take any trade in all of the 3 pairs by now. Will try your converter now.

thanks for your work and updates. i am having problems to set up the ea so it is managing the trades according to the fratelli trade management rules correctly :

"EURUSD: SL is 25 pips. TP is 20 pips. When we see 10 pip profits we move SL to -10 pips. When we see 15 pips in profit we move SL to BE+1 pip"

How do you set the ea up so it moves the SL to -10 pip when we see a 10 pip profit ?

you can play with updated version, seems it has happened tonight, as I got no sleep yet.

This version deletes the pendings as per rules.
Nope, not yet, I was using BE at +15 and TS from there...

Dragos,

can u check if theres a problem with the EMA 2,15 Crossover detection module in the EA ?

In the EA comments the text always shows Most Recent Arrow Signal= None. I think this might be the problem the EA is not taking any trades. There were some good entry setups today but it didnt take any of them.

See Screenshot

Thanks

Can't open your image attached, Tex. :(
Well, I had no time today to forward test the EA, but in backtester is trading as it should.
Also, the white arrow signal is valid just for the next 2 candles, after that, signal is aborted and it displays "None".So, if a valid setup is not occuring for the next 2 candles, no trade.
If you are using 10 mins offline charts, might be a problem, indeed, I got a sell signal just about 1 hour ago on EURJPY and, indeed, trade was not opened by the Ea. :(
Must check with Mike why it's not trading on offline charts, but he's a bit busy today...

Will come back as soon as I got news.

Is this according to the Rules of the original Fratelli System ? Never read about canceling the entry if its not within two candles after an arrow occurs..

To run an EA on offline chart you need the attahced version of the indicator, the previous one didn't include the fix by John from the T101 Basket Trader which i copied across to this one.

My EA has placed trades today, not correct ones but it is trading :lol:

Dragos and i will try and get a fully working version out over next couple of days.

Oh okay thank you Mike, will try this one :)

Dragos, i think we should stick to the actual entry rules. I have a feeling that the thread over at FF is about to go down the drain like it is always happening to this sort of system threads..
Add an indi here, change a rule there and bam it doesn't work anymore...
