I'm a bit late to that party on this one..

Well done Steve, looks good!

Just an observation, I ran the script today an only 2 trades opened. I thought that is a bit odd, so I ran in again and then 2 more trades opened. Weird I thought third time another 3 trades opened... Is that normal behavior? Anyone else with this strange one or it could be just something on my end, I'll try another terminal and see if it does the same.

Never happened on my end. I would have noticed.

Yesterday, I applied the script on an old demo account which I recently refunded. (I mention this because there could be issues with the history file or data not loading up properly before the script is run in the case of a fresh account).
This was after the original script was edited by Steve to fix trades that were not always in the expected direction. Only one trade opened up.

That was unusual but I thought I will investigate before I yell out to the community. Haven't done the investigation yet to make sure I wasn't doing anything wrong, but I thought I should back up your experience.

Gtactual.

Hi @ll.

If you are interested in an automated version of Steve's concept, check this out: The Paycheck Project.

November was the disaster we all knew would come at some stage.

I sat out December because of Christmas. The first couple of weeks of January went by in a blur, so I never sent the orders.

Back in business now.

I am restarting this experiment after a lengthy pause.

I only abandoned it because the VPS screwed up all the login details and I knew that Jem and co were jumping the Global Prime ship to form Afterprime. It did not seem worth the effort to reconnect the GP demos as I assumed they would not survive the move.

I have edited post 1 and have added details of the new demo for you folks to follow.

I will send the orders tomorrow.
