Dewey McG replied Oct 26, 2013Good question. Per system rules TP is set at 2x SL, then move to BE +1 after 7-8 pips and trail at 5. I do that except I do more of a visual on the trailing SL. I never seem to make a trailing stop work right but I prefer to rely on experience and ...

Dewey McG replied Oct 25, 2013Technically you don't need either one. I have been experimenting recently with the currency one. Ideally I like to see the direction of the white line on Gadi_Currencies match the direction of the trade. GG53 was talking about normalized volume ...

Dewey McG replied Oct 25, 2013Hindsight is always 20/20, but I wanted to show the other pairs just to help demonstrate which trades to take and which ones to skip. Hope this helps.

Dewey McG replied Oct 25, 2013Trades from Thursday and Friday--not my best. I am thinking I should not take as many different trades across somewhat correlated pairs and take solid signals and manage less at once. Thursday should have been a BE + 1 but I actually took a small ...

Dewey McG replied Oct 24, 2013Thanks for all your hard work. I have been spending some time with the EA to see how it trades so we can make it as good as trading manually. I appreciate how difficult it is for a programmer. a few adjustments need to be made so it will be ...

Dewey McG replied Oct 23, 2013I took a quick TP on the EURUSD and am heading to bed since the other pairs except for USDCHF were no trade

Dewey McG replied Oct 23, 2013You are correct--it will vary by broker. If you see a big difference on one versus most others then I would not use that one

Dewey McG replied Oct 23, 2013Weird so far. No trade on the GBPUSD either because the entry candle is too large

Dewey McG replied Oct 23, 2013News caused some big moves on the AUSUSD (as well as the NZDUSD and USDJPY). No trade for any of these. Let's hope the EU and a few others can provide some opportunities

Dewey McG replied Oct 22, 2013Not going to be trading today because of NFP. I hope everyone else will play it safe and wait until tomorrow.

Dewey McG replied Oct 20, 2013I would give the user the option to take a 2nd trade if the GAdi_OBV crosses back over the other side of the channel. However, I would count "no trade signals" as the first trade. For example, if the first signal is a buy but the candle is too large ...

Dewey McG replied Oct 20, 2013I hope I am not driving you crazy and I know how hard it is to make an EA do what we would do trading live. As is it still loses money. The SL is too tight and the trailing Stop is so close it triggers too early so you can't ride the winners. EDIT. ...

Dewey McG replied Oct 19, 2013Just some food for thought for the EA: Visual back-testing is limited because it only shows close of bar and not what happened on the tick. However, if you traded only signals on the close of bar on the EU, 21 of the last 24 trades would have been ...

Dewey McG replied Oct 19, 2013You sounded fine--I just wanted to make sure I didn't sound rude. I like both your ideas--will be good to see what GG says. If this works I don't want my wife to find out--I need her to think I am working

Dewey McG replied Oct 19, 2013"Bugs" was the wrong term. I would wait for GG53 to comment before doing anything but here are my suggestions: 1. The initial SL is too tight. I was using the previous swing low and if it was too close I would use the one before. I then switched to ...

Dewey McG replied Oct 19, 2013I think I found a few bugs. I ran a back test just for the last week and compared with the charts

Dewey McG replied Oct 19, 2013I started trying to test the EA but there seems to be a bug. The EA took no trades last week so I tried visual mode and as you can see from the PIC it doesn't take the trade when a clear signal is given.

Dewey McG replied Oct 19, 2013Thanks for the heads up. Haven't started on the EA yet but the indicator alone is amazing. It makes visual back testing easy and the alerts will help to trade more pairs. Big thanks to both you and GG53. I can't wait to trade next week!
