• Most Forex traders lose all their money.
• Using the robot posted here in trading Forex does not guarantee success.
• Trading this robot could lead to serious financial loss.
• Trading this robot without understanding its underlying trading strategies guarantees traders will lose their money.
• This is not a set-and-forget ea; there is no such thing and anyone who tries to claim there is, is either stupid or lying. This ea requires frequent manual intervention.
• At best, a trading robot is only 90% as good as the manual strategy it trades. At best. At worst, it can be much less effective. If the strategy is rubbish, so is the robot.
• To trade this robot, you have to understand:
  • How to use EA's. Remember to set CriminalIsECN to 'true' if your crim insists on two-stage order sending.
  • Moving averages

• Use 24 hour clock and enter times as they are on your clock when the markets open and close.
• Qustions about telling the time are forbidden and will be deleted, along with the answer that anyone is kind enough to give. If unsure about telling the time, enlist a buddy to help.

• Taking a buy trade as an example:
  • market has crossed the high moving average, so the slow CCI is used (SlowCciPeriod).
    • send the trade when the slow CCI > 0.
  • market is above the high moving average and there has not been a cross:
    • wait for a retrace to the high moving average.
    • take the trade when the fast CCI (FastCciPeriod) is > 0

Hi Steve,

I have been using this brilliant EA with a few modifications of lately, as I trade using the 34 EMA waves I was wondering if you could assist in adding a filter to using the CCI.

If you will be willing willing to test the EA using the following settings

1.34 EMA High
ii.34 EMA Low
iii.34 EMA close ( I use this instead of the original 200 MA)


Timeframe: - I use the 1HR and 4HR timeframes , why scalp for 30pips when I can net 100pips on a few pairs every day !!
Now the greasy bit here is using the CCI 50 period as a filter, so on whatever timeframe the rule is simple
Go long when the CCI is Above the zero line and price is above the 34 EMA high
Go Short when the CCI is below the zero line and price is below the 34 EMA Low.
If this filter can be incorporated into the EA coupled with all the bells and whistles already in place , we would have created a mega ATM machine.

So, V 1b incorporates this. I have since received a couple more pm's from aworex, neither of which made sense but which appear to state that his/her usage of the above is actually slightly different.

So, I post this here and over to aworex to make further comments. Bear in mind guys, that despite being the forum owner and bill-payer, I am one of those unable to receive subscribed thread notifications and so might need a pm prompt should anything useful emerge here.
