This is just going mental

It just hammers trends , something this simple shouldn't work ?

Looks awesome for sure, too bad the EUR/JPY is eliminated from the competition this month, hopefully it will be in sync next month and seeking revenge

Congratulations to all developers, coders, testers and ideas people; I need to get my head wrapped around this ASAP

Thanks.
You might want to have a think about that question. It makes no sense. He's using fixed lots. If he was using 0.1 lots he would have made $110. What % is that?

If he has a $1000 demo account then $11 is 1.1%, if he used 0.1 lots he would have made 11% etc. It doesn't tell you anything about the EA.

It takes years of experience to come up with something this simple and elegant. Pipcruiser is a very clever individual.

Steve is too apparently. ;) Lol without you and SHF we would be lost and you should not be left out in receiving credit where credit is certainly due.

The first full week with semi-auto settings is done and the results are good. Although not a lot of trades were opened, they were all winners or they are still open and in profit. I sold off all the euro pairs when they were almost at its lowest, so I got about the maximum pips out of it.

Unfortunately I forgot to change the settings for FridayPendingExpriryHours and all pendings were removed at 16:00. From the looks of it I missed the entries for 4 euro pairs because of this. But if I look back at the daily chart I see we're at a support line from March 2003, so there might be a correction coming up. My gut feeling says I that I should be lucky for missing the entries, but we'll see what happens.

Overall 1 week is too short to say anything about it, let's see how my PPoS will perform against my HGB in the upcoming weeks / months. I'm planning to use one of them for a live account so I'll closely watch how both systems perform in certain situations.

HGB is in the lead atm, but it suffered quite a big drawdown yesterday while PPoS is rolling steady which is something to keep in mind.

G'day all,
I'll be trying this baby out as from Tuesday, all set to go with PPOS Version 1d, or as wolfeman would coin the term,"piproid v1d"... :smile:

I will trial it side-by-side with HGB second edition v1b. (both on daily TFs)

Will post my results at the end of the week!

Cheers!
Tony

V 1e is in post 1. I noticed my breakeven being set to 0 even though it is 100 in the inputs. The culprit is a conditional I left out of the atr code.

To make the change yourself, go to line 2299. Higlight this block of code:

Code: Select all

//ATR for sl/tp   
   static datetime OldAtrBarTime = 0;
   if (OldAtrBarTime != iTime(Symbol(), AtrTimeFrame, 0) )
   {
      OldAtrBarTime = iTime(Symbol(), AtrTimeFrame, 0);
      AtrVal = GetAtr(Symbol(), AtrTimeFrame, AtrPeriod, 1) * factor;   
      if (!CloseEnough(AtrSlMultiplier, 0))
         MainTradeStopLoss = AtrVal * AtrSlMultiplier;
      if (!CloseEnough(AtrTpMultiplier, 0))
         MainTradeTakeProfit = AtrVal * AtrTpMultiplier;
      if (!CloseEnough(AtrBeMultiplier, 0))
         BreakEvenPips = AtrVal * AtrBeMultiplier;
      if (!CloseEnough(AtrJsMultiplier, 0))
         JumpingStopPips = AtrVal * AtrJsMultiplier;

   }//if (OldAtrBarTime != iTime(Symbol(), TradingTF, 0) )
   
and copy this over the top, then recompile:

Code: Select all

   //ATR for sl/tp
   if (AtrPeriod > 0)
   {
      static datetime OldAtrBarTime = 0;
      if (OldAtrBarTime != iTime(Symbol(), AtrTimeFrame, 0) )
      {
         OldAtrBarTime = iTime(Symbol(), AtrTimeFrame, 0);
         AtrVal = GetAtr(Symbol(), AtrTimeFrame, AtrPeriod, 1) * factor;   
         if (!CloseEnough(AtrSlMultiplier, 0))
            MainTradeStopLoss = AtrVal * AtrSlMultiplier;
         if (!CloseEnough(AtrTpMultiplier, 0))
            MainTradeTakeProfit = AtrVal * AtrTpMultiplier;
         if (!CloseEnough(AtrBeMultiplier, 0))
            BreakEvenPips = AtrVal * AtrBeMultiplier;
         if (!CloseEnough(AtrJsMultiplier, 0))
            JumpingStopPips = AtrVal * AtrJsMultiplier;
   
      }//if (OldAtrBarTime != iTime(Symbol(), TradingTF, 0) )
   }//if (AtrPeriod > 0)
