| Post subject: | Engulfing Outside bar EA |
Hello Guys, I would like to request an EA for Engulfing Outside bar strategy. We all know what Engulfing Outside bars are, recently a trader named "smilee89" made a thread on Forexfactory, which drag my attention to this, so all credit goes him. There is already an EA, which doesn't work. It has many problems. Please read this post. This is a price action strategy, I think it has great potential. I have tried it on H1 and H4, tested on 15 pairs. Results are really good. I think the basic rules are quite profitable, but we can add some filters (regular Steve stuff) even a martingale module for playing. Thanks in advance |

The EA needs Steve's CriminalIsECN thingy and money management bits. |

Who says you don't need indicators? Attached is an indicator I put together that shows the entry points. You set the time frame and the pips you want to use for padding. There is no error checking, so don't put in incorrect time periods. Just use the standard number of minutes in the time period you are interested in. To use the indicator, add it to your chart, and enter the time frame you are interested. Make sure the time frame you enter is higher than the time frame of the chart. (Or, make sure the chart is a lower time frame than what you enter. EDIT: OK, I changed it so that it will plot arrows if you use the same time frame as your chart. And it is ugly. You can add the indicator multiple times to compare different higher time frames, just make sure to change the line width or color. George |

Thanks a lot for your indi Gaheitman. Could any of you brilliant guys make an ea for this? Its a pretty simple idea to code. I am using the broken EA from the thread which generating wrong signals all the time, still made like 50 pips today, with a trailing stop thing, could've made much more. Now there is a new version of the ea with mincandlesize settings, this one doesn't work at all |

Well, since I already did the trigger logic in the indicator, I'll take a shot at the EA. (unless someone else has already started) George |
