pt49 replied Nov 22, 2023Following are 8 examples of trades in the last 6 hours... mostly all occurring 5 to 6 hours ago. Quite obviously it's hard to enter so many trades at the same time due to available margin... and these were ALL on the one hour time frame. This is why ...

pt49 replied Nov 21, 2023Please be aware that the 8ema repaints as the new candle forms after valid entry candle closes sometimes. This only happens when there is a strong move up or down on the new candle. It can affect what you may see and record. For instance it can pull ...

pt49 replied Nov 19, 2023You say you have a flaw... psychological/mental obviously. How do you know that the EA has no flaws? To help overcome personal flaws, you need a clearly defined winning mechanical strategy with written down rules that you back/forward test manually. ...

pt49 replied Nov 19, 2023OK, so did your EA give you a: Buy on eurjpy daily today? Buy on audusd hourly today? Buy on gbpjpy hourly today? If the answer is "No" on any of them, there's a flaw in the EA.
