Yep 30p TP by my demo broker.

Extracted Thread (per thread starter's request)

Hi A.W.O.L. I have been thinking on this quite a bit as well and I certainly appreciate the discussion. To use Martingale or not of course has a big impact on the chosen risk amount. With or without Martingale, the main change in my thinking with ...

Hmm EAs have been working for me. Which one in particular? I believe 7bit mentioned that some date functions might not work.

Sorry for the misquote. What I meant to say is that the martingale ratios are hard coded, not the functionality itself. I brought it up because it's common in the conversations. I am in the process of finding the sweet spots and I as do the due ...

Looking forward to trying this out. In part of my initial testing with the latest indi, managing the reversals is part of the profitability due to the lot doubling. You noted previously that the indi and the EA will have the same algos. Will that ...

GBP/AUD anyone? — I'll need an EA as work and family keep me busy almost 24/7 already. I'm happing to see one forming on G/A to let me try it out though.

Just finished the whirlwind tour… — Late last Friday night I was looking for a way to manage re-entries better due to "false breakouts". Googling for it somehow displayed the "Tools or forexhard's Stairstep Breakouts System" as a little tiny ...

@cpm Nevermind about the debuggers as I read about the very short time available to run an external process from MT4.

MT4: Create Variables on the fly

Nevermind I read about the MT4 limitations on the very short time you can keep an external process running before it continues execution. Either way this is tremendous!

@cpm that's a nice framework for Python based indicators. I can't help but wonder if something like Aptana Studio could be used with its debuggers and such while developing with it. And the code is clean enough to be extended. Nicely done. I am ...

MT4: Create Variables on the fly

Very cool — Perhaps a github project? Can fork it then. Out of curiosity, is there any way to get an IDE to allow breakpoints in the Python when called like this? [edit] And a very nice project by the way!

MBT MT4 os OSX 10.6.8 works BUT... — So MBT's MT4 works fine on OSX so far (no EA programming done yet) but the editor does not work completely. You can edit and compile and the online library shows listings but the help panel is empty.

MBT MT4 os OSX 10.6.8 works — Just letting you know I got it running. Haven't tested anything yet other than creating a new account. Data loads, charts are active... and it's fast. I plan to use it for local dev so I was happy to get it ...

Sorry for the relatively long absence. I don't have the chops to code and manage what I planned in MT4. I'll have to use TradeLink which gives me a full development environment for it.

Trading the anti-grid with the snowball EA

OK It kicked in about 20 hours later. A bit odd. So it does work just delayed a day.

running on two instances of MT4? — Any one know of any issues running the snowball on two instances of Mt4 on the same computer with 2 different accounts? I copied over the installation directory and renamed it to be able to launch another ...

Trading the anti-grid with the snowball EA

simple csv serialization — Just learned about MT4s CSV capabilities. Not as intuitive as I would have hoped but it is functional. Not too bad. Hopefully I can get the serialization in over the next couple days, time permitting. I am guessing, ...

Trading the anti-grid with the snowball EA

Heh I don't think I'll be able to git level skipping in there and still be able to keep a lot of the functionality, especially the info displays. I actually have to check if I can actually get it to skip levels and still work as expected. Otherwise ...

Trading the anti-grid with the snowball EA

I am definitely not on the same level as 7bit, not even close. Additional testers are helpful of course! The additional checks for lines should be as simple as adding this to checkLines(). if (crossedLine("stop short")){ stop(); } if ...

Trading the anti-grid with the snowball EA

I just discovered this via 7bit's home page because of Python and R integration. My gosh. Nice! It doesn't seem to want to work with MBTrading in BIDIR mode but a single direction works. In order to "remote control" it, I think I'll be updating ...
