No kidding. I misread it by a digit. Definitely scalping. HFT. Definitely slippage and commissions/spreads will affect outcome. Definitely only legit ECNs with commissions charged will allow trading it.

I have coded a profitable EA, now what?

You have what could be considered a scalping EA (avg 200 trade a month?). Don't forgot to factor commission per trade and slippage. You may have controlled some of the fills/slippage in your EA code (don't know) but your MT4 report does not factor ...

I have coded a profitable EA, now what?

I'd like to add that both EAs have equity based variable lot sizing so what I'm really looking for is a script in MT4 that can read both EAs and output into one report that recognizes the lot sizing of both EAs working at the the same time. The ...

Script or program to merge results of 2 different EAs?

OK did some quicks tests...as far as the tester based on my backtested data... 0.125 * (A + B + C + D + E + F + G + H) Equals (2.5*A + 2.5*B + 2.5*C + 2.5*D + 2.5*E + 2.5*F + 2.5*G + 2.5*H) / 20 The above is as expected... HOWEVER...although the two ...

Maths question and MT4 compiler/tester issue?

Maths question and MT4 compiler/tester issue?

Aware of risks and broker practices and market tendencies. Want to fix entry at 2.0 pips slip period, even if the the spread is less than 2 pips. EA passes on trade if spread is more than 2. Exits are handled by hard stops/hard TPs not worried about ...

Any fixed spread broker with exactly 2.0 pip spread?

What's the broker's name? Better spreads, lower commission, faster fills, pure ECN, never freezes, no random spikes, and money in bank within 48 hours. If they can handle large lot sizes and still deliver the above...PERFECT. Please PM if you don't ...

Best Broker?

Nice chart, lines and analysis. Closed a EURUSD short overnight that I'd been holding for a few days and just got in another above the neck line there. Looking at 1.0950 as the retrace zone, but since I don't normally hold over weekends, this will ...

Making Bank: The Harmonic rhythm of the market

Thought I'd wake this thread up again. Just finished working on a new concept. Even though the results are based on 500:1 and broker stop out of 20%, I thought I'd put it up here. Please no PMs asking me about it from strangers. Not for sale and not ...
