ecTrade replied Nov 17, 2010Latest Version / "R1" — Okay, it looks like I have something here. Everything seems to be working fine, except for the break even feature, unfortunately. It too appears to be working, except I'm not getting very good results. Maybe ...

ecTrade replied Nov 16, 2010This actually is a good idea. I was thinking of something similar, except only setting the first trade to 0.01, before ramping up to higher lot levels. I even tried it, but it didn't appear to work too well. Now, if we set the first three levels to ...

ecTrade replied Nov 16, 2010Reverse Input - Updates — Okay, have modified EA to include #MTF_RSI indicator. Also added first trade SL, which only works when set to value greater than 0. Otherwise it goes with value determined by trade_1_factor. I also figured out it ...

ecTrade replied Nov 15, 2010SWB - Reverse Inputs — You can go ahead and try this. I believe it's roughly set up the way you are asking. It's a little bit buggy, but I think it can be fixed if I decide to pursue it. And here, although tp_averaging is set to true, and ...

ecTrade replied Nov 14, 2010Okay, it was easy enough to reverse the inputs and open trades in opposite direction, but it still reaches pretty high limit levels, almost from the start. I tried adding 25 point hard sl, which I assume you want all levels set to (or, last order?), ...

ecTrade replied Nov 14, 2010Are you saying to reverse the inputs? I think that would probably be easy enough. Also, I think I tried this once before, but couldn't get it to work. But, now that I have a better understanding of the code and have it laid out better, although I ...

ecTrade replied Nov 13, 2010So, if you are successful on both sides of it, contingent upon a proper exit strategy, that is, how do you wind up paying twice the spread?
"Hedging" Revisited
-
ecTrade replied Nov 13, 2010The price fluctuates up and down all the time. So, if you open a hedge in the opposite direction and it closes out and the price swings back up, you are that much further ahead. Also, if you opt to close the first trade and open one in the opposite ...
"Hedging" Revisited
-
ecTrade replied Nov 13, 2010If you are trading in one direction, and the price begins to swing in the opposite direction, rather than know with absolute certainty which way it's going to go, you can open a hedge for so many pips and, when it closes out, you've just lowered the ...
"Hedging" Revisited

ecTrade replied Nov 13, 2010Oh, I'm going to post this one more time, and ask if anyone knows how to set this indicator so it will update when new a bar opens. It would also be nice to know how to access currency prices when they are updated, so I can possibly use them with ...

ecTrade replied Nov 13, 2010New Hedge Version / SWB_Stealth_V1.01_h — Okay, it looks like I got the hedge together on the stealth version, on both tp_averaging verson and non-tp_averaging version. It wasn't nearly as difficult this time, as the EA is laid out better. ...

ecTrade replied Nov 13, 2010That's a very limited way of looking at it. Here is a better strategy, which I've incorporated here.
"Hedging" Revisited
-
ecTrade replied Nov 12, 2010You can always go with IBFX if you live in the States. They are FIFO compliant (or so they say), but everything is done on their side, so whenever you go to close a trade, you can't tell the difference. You don't know that you're not trading LIFO. ...

ecTrade replied Nov 11, 2010Hey, I noticed that when testing these EA's, they tend to blow the account a lot sooner. However, when I look at the backtest report, it only blows about half the account. Whereas before, it almost always wiped you out. Is this a result of the new ...

ecTrade replied Nov 10, 2010Have you seen this version? It's probably one of the best ways of hedging I know of. I got the idea from what Ralph19 was discussing here, and I was merely trying to implement it. In works quite well in fact. However, it won't prevent you from ...

ecTrade replied Nov 9, 2010So long as the market is ranging it will probably work fine. However, once it starts to trend, and you get on the wrong side of it, you'll have to set how high you want your limit to go, for example, level 3, and that of course entails taking a ...

ecTrade replied Nov 9, 2010Oh, if you guys noticed the EA isn't working, you'll have to redownload it. I decided to modify it prior to posting and didn't think it would affect anything. I guess I was wrong. Sorry.
Thanks.SWB Stealth (Martingale)

ecTrade replied Nov 9, 2010Yeah, the Range sets how many pips/points there are between each level or, next trade. So yeah, it can make a big difference in terms of how the EA operates.

ecTrade replied Nov 9, 2010Well, hopefully I'll have a few more to add before I'm through. I was looking at this thread here, and the indicator which I also modified here, and thought maybe we could get it to open particular pairs based upon their relative strength. I still ...
