EA's inspired by nanningbob's work here, especially those based on his 240 Moving Average trend detection filter.

My multitrades will sometimes only open 2 trades also. 1 main and a second. I have it set to open 10 too.

I have mine set to only take trend trades.

But, it is still not taking all the multi trades it should. HGI 16.07

@Jhlewis always attach your chart-img directly here, as we do not like this type of links outside, if you don't know how, read there http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3/kb.php?a=2
I have your post corrected.

Cheers :)

Sorry about that, I always assumed forums preferred hot linking images vs keeping the images on the forums servers.

Thanks Wolfgang,

Yes, my understanding is that the relationship between the two MA's is irrelevant, however price needed to be above both for buys and below for sells......I'm seeing orders taken when price is between the two MA's which based on the Steve's description ranging.....at least that is my current understanding....

Wiggy

Wiggy did you figure this out because mine seems to work perfectly. MA filter has keept me out of many bad trades.

Wolfe, doesn't the EA do this automatically or is there more to it? Might be why mine isn't closing on opposite either.

art wants to manage HGB his manual-trades, that is why he must enter the appropriate order-comments...

Ahhh that makes sense. Thanks Tommaso. While we are on the subject though let me ask a question.
Does the EA only close on opposite same signals? example if it opens a trend trade will it close on a range wave or only on a opposite trend arrow? I thought the idea was having it close on the waves because they are detecting exhaustion.

We know that HGB tends to give back some or all of the gains, and he trades more than anyone could want. So from all the experience here, what is the single most profitable setup that has qualities of lowest draw down, and doesn't give back as much as it takes? Obviously this may change with time as the market morphs.
I'm not trading RAD but all others I am trading. My MyFxBook history isn't long enough to gain insight into this. Thought I'd throw this out there for those like me who prefer to trade less with higher quality signals/setups.
