I don't know if there are any original settings or an explanation for it to be honest, not unless it's at the beginning of the thread? Unless noted otherwise, I think most everyone is working with the default settings.

Oh well, it doesn't appear to work in either case. Sorry.

RSI Switch ... 4.1.0.3.3.1_h — Okay, I set it up this way also. I switched Buy and Sell conditions and specified that rsi_switch==true. Let me know which or if either version works, okay? Thanks.

RSI Switch ... 4.1.0.3.3_h — Okay, you can try this. I just switched lower and upper settings, which are currently set at 30 and 70. Is this something you adjust to get the settings you are talking about? (45 and 55). Otherwise, no, I don't ...

Sorry I don't know enough about RSI filter to know which part to "switch?" What settings/options are you talking about that specifically need to be switched? I don't see anything in properties box that specifically says "Buy" or "Sell?" It's ...

I guess? Am not sure what you mean. How would you set it up?

Gaps? Really? Although I noticed there was a gap in April, that kind of messed things up. It looked like it occurred over the weekend though, so I figured it had something to do with broker opening times. If so, there's not much you can do about it. ...

Update on Break Even — Just to let you konw, I updated the break even feature so it's now customizable, and you can specify it to start at whatever level you want. So, if you set it to level 6, and the stop loss to level 10, that means levels ...

Okay, I re-ran the test with better results changing variables in bold below. Of course it didn't yield nearly as much money (less than $400), but did manage to squeeze by, especially around may 19th, when it reached level 12 with range set at 60 ...

Hey, goes to show the NFA might be good for something. It's too bad they can't focus more on this kind of crap.

NFA Takes Action Against Gain Capital

Modified 4.1.0.3.2_h — Oh, I had to modify EA, because it wasn't calling out correct parameters for sl_increment_money variable. I specified an integer instead of a decimal value, so I couldn't break it down at .50 cent level. ETA: Updated to ...

I just got through running test with settings below. Started on 6/17/2009 (mini account limitations) and ran until 5/6/2010 when the big crashed occurred. It looked like it was about ready to pull out, but crashed at level 15. The account balance ...

Wow! How someone can keep track of all this stuff is beyond me? I tend to pick up bits and pieces as I go, while focusing on those things I'm more familiar which, for the most gets the job done. There's almost always something that comes ...

Which error is that? ... "Not enough money?" I don't know, I don't work with the error codes a lot, although I do look at the journal from to time. Yes, this is part of the problem ... or, is the main problem. The lot sizes multiply so quickly. This ...

Okay, that time it crashed on 1/19/2010 at L15. Which isn't too bad I guess, considering I reduced the range to 25. I also left stop loss increment set at 4. I suppose I will try one more time with it set at 3. I think I will also try reducing ...

Oh well, I started backtest with EUR/USD on 6/17/2009 and it crashed on 12/17/2009. There were only two instances where it reached level 10 or higher before crashing though. Am not sure at what level it crashed? Will try again with range set at 25 ...

New Settings ... Looks Good! — Just tinkering around a bit with settings here. The main thing I did was bring lot size down to 0.1 and set range to 40. Also set stop loss level to 10 which, so far doesn't seem to pose a problem. Got it as high ...

Oh, I forgot to add hedge_start level, which should be set at 2. I also added hedge=true, although it is set as default. It's just that hedge_alt option won't work unless it is set to true. Also, no need to re-download just yet.

Version 4.1.0.3.2_h — I don't know about NanningBob (don't really have time to look at it now), but I have added a couple of mods that might tighten things up a bit. Basically there are three things: alternate hedge (hedge_alt), stop loss by ...

No, it was not doubling up on sell trades. One was the sell and the other was the hedge. Or, at least that's how it's supposed to work, where both open at the same time. And yes, the red TP line is for the hedge. Neither will it open a new sell ...
