Please post your template as it will make my life easier. I hate to be lazy but there are sooo many settings in Steve's EA it is difficult to understand it. 
Evaluator 
Morning Eval,all
here is the template and set file from a new set up this morning, with all my settings. all should load with the template if you have all the indi's. i'm assuming you have them all as you did create the Symphonie trading system.
You will see this is exactly what Steve is trying to avoid, all the 'thingies' he refers to and it can take a long time to set up each chart manually, especially with the amount of indi's i'm running.
a quick explanation, fellow symphonie users will understand better, anyone not understanding or need indies, i have attached them all as a zipped file. there may be a different indi i've used on the chart, but compare to the attached pic and see what you would like, and remove what you dont want.
sorry Steve, but i know you going to get a headache when you see the screen, i'm doing this to test the indis for a ea i'm trying to also write.
trying to keep to a standard as per gamma_gallus, so here go's;
the ea is running on AVA, MIG bank, CITI bank, Markets.com and MBT trading.
the version of the ea is asof 21 march gmt+2 (9:00am my time) i.e 7am gmt time.
the ea's settings are changed to allow for open trading,
0.01

30 - nice and small, smaller is better but keeps me in the trend if it suddenly changes.
30 - dont like giving back more than i risk (please correct me if i'm wrong)
magic must be changed for each chart as it will interfere

i have also changed the settings of all the indis, very slightly and similar to the ea itself, except where Eval has advised on some , i have kept some of the old and not so old, and original settings to compare for myself. get to know the indi's , i know Steve will get annoyed with htis, but it's the best way to understand Eval's system better.
i have not included the Trendline as i have the matrix'x running for confirmation. the idea of the trendline is to keep you in a position longer, so you dont get scared when a opposite direction movement happens. i also find the HA candles i use does the job also.
please check all and their settings. some , including the signals by LhDT use the '3000' bars for looking back and will really drain your system. it's an excellent indicator and i have played with the settings. it should come up with my settings if you use the template.
hope this helps all, and if any questions, please please pm or post.
Eval, we all newbs, and ask questions a lot, and some of us more than others. If you shoot a newb down, it can be very detrimental to that person. Steve understands this to a point and he has the right, and does, tell people off when it really is a lazy question, as opposed to a good valid question.
to a nerb they are all valid, but watch how Steve handles the situation with humour, and man his good. haha.
Thank you Steve,
for the gentleman that you are,
and all the coders and fellow posters who help each other.
regards
george
PS:all indi's used as in the file with same name, unless you compile them and add them seperately. |
