mini account — I am having some trouble with this EA on a mini account. It seems that no matter what %risk I set this EA to, it still only opens 0.01 lots on my mini account. Everything else seems to be working fine. Perhaps I have mucked up ...

Incorporating spread — When you are setting buy stops/limits i assume you add spread. So we are not entering the levels we have on the chart but rather 4 pips (in my case) higher. i forgot to do this when i backtested and it results in a lot ...

Short @ 9671, added 1 part @ 9713 and 2 @ 9738. Waiting for either a full monty or a stop. BTW I am basing my position size on the original BAT entry to original stop. Then divide by 4. So my risk will always be less than 2%.

TA. I cannot match your entries and exits using ATR 5 and factor 4. Your results seem to be using a tighter BAT line. If I use ATR 5 and factor 3 then the results are a lot closer to yours. So my question then is, what ATR and factor were you using ...

Thankyou very much team Aphid. i really like the way you use the fibs here. I have a question though. After entering a trade you place a stop above/below the recent swing high/low. Now if after placing a trade price then breaks the opposite BAT line ...

I'm sure I have read about MAE in one of my books. Perhaps Tharp's. I would also be willing to be involved once I know how to do it. Wiz.

Jacko, That's great. Very clear and simple. I have tried so many methods of trend trading with some success but I tend to overcomplicate things. Maybe this is one of the things that stands in the way of my success. To hear this from one as ...

That's because the exit price is the ask (bid+spread) price not the bid. if you have a 2 pip spread then the exit price will actually be 1.2788 (bid) which is 1.2790 ask. The chart is showing the bid price or depending on the broker it could show ...
