Using pairs to confirm moves of others

You are very welcome. frazerd has committed a great deal of time and effort testing many of my EAs, providing detailed reports, and making suggestions.

Looser Trading System (Version 0.01-1/3)

Simplest is to use version 02 when you don't want the time feature. Version 02 is exactly the same as 03 only it doesn't support timed entries and exits.

Looser Trading System (Version 0.01-1/3)

I'll throw my version into the ring. It works fast even if your chart to which the EA is attached isn't ticking very much. Be warned -- it deletes ALL open trades and pending orders. url

Close all orders @ once

You're welcome TradeRunner. Good EAs expose the goodness or badness of strategies to the light of day. At the very least, it will be fun putting Looser's Kiss-Me strategy to the test with no effort -- look ma, no hands! I love automation in general, ...

Looser Trading System (Version 0.01-1/3)

Yeah, some EAs can have runs of wild profitability, but excellent all-terrain strategies are not the types that usually win trading contests.

The fallacy of Metatrader EA trading contests

Nice explanations frazerd, it all looks correct. They are there as a convenience in the event we want to put in readable day-specific open/close logic.

Looser Trading System (Version 0.01-1/3)

For my part, I'll be using LooserKissMe_03 to test the strategy. This should be a very close fully automated equivalent to what eTrader is doing, with the exception that the EA is not going to determine an initial long or short bias. The strategy ...

Looser Trading System (Version 0.01-1/3)

I do suffer from the delusion that I can code (just about) anything. But I don't code everything.

Successful Automatic Trading - Like Chasing Bigfoot?

A fully or semi automated method for order management/position management/sequence trading makes great sense and my hat is off to you for your disciplined approach to it. To see snapshots of risk and health of a trading strategy, I like to show the ...

Successful Automatic Trading - Like Chasing Bigfoot?

Two things I have almost no time for: indicators and backtests. I explored both extensively and saw that they were steering my thinking in the wrong directions. If you are good with the Oanda API and getting satisfactory results, MT4 might be of ...

Successful Automatic Trading - Like Chasing Bigfoot?

Just be sure to have a reversal strategy and well rehearsed tactical execution ready to go for when your stop loss gets hit.

Successful Automatic Trading - Like Chasing Bigfoot?

A couple steps ahead of you. url My mission here is to find strategies I think are good, then implement them as perfectly as I possibly can. The members of the forum can determine if I have picked good strategies and whether I have implemented ...

Successful Automatic Trading - Like Chasing Bigfoot?

Let me try this another way. First, any trading strategy, whether executed by hand or via program/script, COMES FROM THE HUMAN MIND (if you have software that someone claims CREATES A STRATEGY, I'd like to see it). Second, any trading action a human ...

Successful Automatic Trading - Like Chasing Bigfoot?

Yoda Glenn, remember that the human brain is also what makes people smoke crack, inject heroin, drink too much alcohol...and make bad trading decisions. If you were a bit more than a dabbler, you might have some understanding of what avoinics ...

Successful Automatic Trading - Like Chasing Bigfoot?

Time for a little explanation on what the LooserKissMe EA does. I believe it's an exact implementation of Looser's first strategy (the "Kiss-Me" strategy). However, it doesn't use stop orders nor buy stop and sell stop orders. Rather, it offers the ...

Looser Trading System (Version 0.01-1/3)

The EA should need no customization to trade any type of account with any Metatrader broker. However be sure you understand the MaxMarginToUse setting before going live. MinMiniEquity and MinStdEquity are also very important settings and if they are ...
