edoughig, I agree with you - approx. $1/pip, so I've set up the EA I built that way. BTW, I plan on implementing multiplier like I did in older EAs, so profit-locking values, etc. grow at same rate as Lots, which grows as account balance grows, but ...

Texmade1, Cool! BTW, risking 10% per basket, I've made 8% in last couple days on demo with EA I'm building of your strategy. This is basically not buying above midline of full T101 chart range (control point?), and not selling below. That rule added ...

Gvc, You're saying $0.10/pip, so the $300 gain was around 3,000 pips and not 300 pips today? Edit: I see you corrected it to be $1/pip. Regards, Don

Gvc, You say you trade 0.1 Lots per pair. Is this one mini Lot per pair (so that $60 = approx. 60 pips, or approx. $1.00/pip)? If not, then 0.1 would mean one micro lot per pair (so that $6 = approx. 60 pips, or approx. $0.10/pip) You use multi ...

ajewopf, As long as trading functions are put in already (basic structure), then it's easier for me to go straght to EA and forego indicators first. I used to do as you recommend, but these days just go straight to EA and forego indicaotrs, and ...

So you're really just looking for a AbsoluteStrength cross (not cross and bar close, just cross) and agreement from TrendFinder (can have lime and yellow for buy, or red and yellow for sell). That won't be much to get that integrated. I think it'll ...

Gvc, OK, so here's the conditions I'm expecting: 1st Buy entry: 1. Get blue arrow on current open bar (you didn't way wait until it' closed). Buy condition1 goes to True. 2. If buy condition1 is true, and you get a cross of QQEA or ...

Gvc, The variables are declared (just given name) at top because they are global variables. The variables are defined in DefineStrategyVariables. This tells the EA what the variables means or is. The variables are then used in if/else statements in ...

texmade, Thepicture I show when I show Gc's strategy is using the 8-pair basket, since that is what he trades. When I show your strategy, I use the 14-pair chart because that is what you use. Maybe that's the reason it looks off? I just know I put ...

Tex, 1. Is that an indicator that draws the red and blue lines? (Edit, if hand-drawn, I could make an indicator it looks like. It looks as if I could draw a horizontal line on every 3LZZ Semafor 3, divide the range into top and bottom half, and ...

texmade1, How many bars back do you look for support and resistance (as I see it, unless told differently by you, I would look for highest high and lowest low of certain number of bars). Regards, Don

Gvc and any other coders out there: I have started an EA which is IN PROGRESS AND DOES NO TRADES SINCE IT HAS NO RULES CODED. Having said that, I did slightly change the code from the TrendFinder indicator and put it in the EA. No matter what I do, ...

I was watching it when it happened. Wow! Nice. Very nice. Just as I expected, the price was manipulated up to "just" make a new high for the hour, but minutes before, price came down slowly. At 8:30 EST, price crossed to the negative for the hour ...

Gvc, So you put the trades on manually with a script, wait for $60 profit before kicking in the lock profit function? All that can totally be automated, as well as the $60 scaled according to Lots. Also, I've set up my charts like yours on one demo ...

edoughig, I am using Julius' standard account (mini lot) locking numbers divided by 10 (to make micro lot locking numbers), then I divide Lots by One Micro Lot to get a Multiplier. I then multiply the locking numbers by the Multiplier to get the ...
