Steve said he posted a link to the post with the EA. Standard procedure until an EA is believed to be working ok, which is then attached to Post 1.

The newest version has SL, but you´re right, it isn´t. The TP is 30 pips while in Scooby it is 25 (unless he changed it) Edited: Well, it seems he did
By the way, I´m using SL/TP 50/25 instead of the default 100/25. Easy to modify in the code, ...scooby-doo BOJ JPY pairs trading robot

Bugs are in the coding logic? It triggered 3 trades here (1 hit TP, 2 floating ones). Didn´t check out yet if it opened them appropriately according to the strategy though.

Question on the Scooby EA: How does it decide when to close a losing trade?

I started running it last Wednesday. It opened 6 trades almost immediately, 4 of them already closed in profit with an overall +150 pips, but the other two are still open with a DD of 600 pips. No trades opened yesterday.

Just an informational question to Scooby Doo: Is there any usual BOJ intervention pattern, if at all, after such sharp movements in the jpy pairs?

I´m running it on a gbpjpy chart due to the higher tick frequency. TF shouldn´t matter because the robot checks different timeframes by itself. Scooby, if I´m wrong here, please correct me. It also has a hidden TP, calculated as per Scoobs exit ...

I am testing it in a 4H chart, and since yesterday it lost 25 trades and won only 7. If the "wrongdirection" function does it, it would be empiric science at its best

Just a suggestion when using the EA to trade a pair other than gpbjpy: While the principle is the same, the traded pair, whichever it is, will not move as violently as gbpjpy, so it would probably work better with the SL and TP at a lower value, ...
