I appreciate that opinions will be offered but I always ask myself, "Does this opinion help me?" Some people will ask questions hoping for suggestions or inspiration to trigger their thinking in the hope of reaching the answer themselves. For me, by ...
ea optimization
- ericjschroed replied May 31, 2011
Yes, I too have been considering that question. If I optimize an EA, theoretically that should mean if I could go back 1 year (or the time period I tested) and using those parameters, achieve a similar result. If we are basing our future trades with ...

Ok, your kind pleading has weakened me. You don't want the Beastie, you want his NanningBob V1 Trend manual trading robot, which does exactly what you want. I am including it here. I am also including a .set file, zipped, with what I think your ...

Perhaps this thread has not had much action because Bob has been too busy to post more than once in a while. It's like anything where a leader has followers and if the leader disappears, the followers drift off. Bob used to have time to post his ...

Thanks but that one also only seems to give me stats on one currency pair, when I want to combine them as in real trading. If I can find one that just lets me input the Win/Loss trade results.
Statistics reporting program?

Yes, it does have a lot of confusing math functions but I can't find any that show max DD, relative DD, etc.

The only thing that is constant with this TMA is the current bar. Everything before that can change, unlike the TMA True (which is the same as a 56 LWMA) or a regular MA. If you open the .mq4 file up using the Editor (F4) you can see what it's ...

Every time I see something that looks that good I get suspicious. The picture you post reminds me of the perfect examples I see in every ad for the ultimate trading system. Fortunately you are not selling anything. I think if you go back further on ...

Maybe not the best but possibly the ONLY one outside the U.S. available for U.S. citizens. Also, if you sign up, I would suggest NOT using Moneybookers because there is an initial limit of 2000 Euro transfer in 90 days, and if you initiate the ...

On my demo ECN account the minimum lot size is .1 but you can trade micro over that, .11, .12. Is it the same for the live ECN account?

It has been my observation and decision to set my SL based on a recent swing low just like Bob and Steve do. It may seem that this would be wrong considering that many other traders do the same thing, but in the long run it seems to work out. The ...

Hey Bob, if you're still looking in from time to time, I was wondering why you use a 5MA shift 5 on the H1 but a 8MA no shift on the H4? I have been testing my own EA starting with the EurUsd and it showed a 3.5% gain from 1/1/11 to end of March, ...

- ericjschroed replied Apr 19, 2011
That's going to be difficult because this system allows for trader interpretation, although I am trying to make it fit into a precise mold, kind of like Steve's autotrader. Bob certainly is more of a master of this since it's his idea, but you might ...

I believe it is Triangulated Moving Average, and the center line is the TMA virtually identical to a 56 LWMA at the leading edge but the past lines are smoothed out, which means it changes position alot, and the outer lines are 2 ATR100 distance ...

Hi, I've actually coded my own EA using % of ATR rather than a fixed 15/3 in order to treat each currency the same. If one has an ATR of 10 and another has 50, it doesn't make sense to use the same settings on both. I too am watching to see if the ...

Obviously, the decision to move a stop or not depends on the win/loss percentage. You say your tests showed a decrease in profitablility. I do not have a lot of data yet, but my current observations are that the BE stop saves me from more losers ...

If I hadn't taken any trades on Friday, I would be at breakeven right now, which may be great considering the comments about the crazy week. I am using my own EA slightly different than Steve's. Still not completely perfected but I am going to add ...
