Yes it is..the only reason I have new demo's is due to the upgrade Global Prime have made to their servers. All the old demo's have stopped working.

Just shows the difficulty in trying to make rules that cover many situations, that GBPAUD trade that "should have closed" reversed and is now well in profit.

Yes it has, so we were lucky...
Most of my analysis shows this function will save us more than we will lose...unfortunately we will miss the odd winner from time to time
Yes - I just checked and, with the setup I have, there were 4 trades yesterday that should have closed that didn't (and went on to hit full SL) so you can't look at a single trade in isolation.

Cheers,

Depends which settings you are using, I'm running Shelley's 2b set and didn't have 4 trades that (would have) hit full stop loss. However I do accept Shelley's analysis that overall we would be better off with the filter.

Wow!!
It's for real. I uploaded it on 20 pairs and went to sleep yesterday. Now it's +100 in profit :D

Noob here :)

Glad to see it's going well Mourad but don't get too carried away. You were on the right side of the news for those trades to take off like that. That's not to say the EA isn't good - just that your first experience of it isn't necessarily "normal"!

Cheers,
Dave.

I'm new here .... so hello to everyone. I've followed the thread for that last few days and loaded this EA to some charts (thank you) but having loaded the new version V2a this morning I'm having problems with stop losses not being created on some trades. If I try to manually add a stop loss it disappears as soon as I click 'ok'. Is anyone else experiencing this ... or is it just me (which is possible)?

This is normal, after the second trade in one pai BASA uses stackmanagement for all stacktrades in this pair, so it sets a stackbreakeven and a stacksl watch out for the lines in your chart

Thank you Dave, I noticed the news thing earlier and I managed to close the trades manually before the correction starts. But I'll continue testing.
Thank you!
