So I've been a programmer but new to EA's.. I think its going to be a new obsession of mine.. I would like for anyone to kindly share observations made from viewing EA's that work and dont work etc..
I went through a ton of EA's on FF and its very funny to see all these back test showing horrible results and the correlation between the EA's and why most are losing bring very good insights into why most traders lose and so forth...(don't get me wrong some did profit well but only very very few that i've found.. 90% model accurate of course)
So next week I will program my first EA, it will be my current system and from there I will program new ideas and old systems I traded.. Pretty much find one that works well and always have my latest and best one swapped into the live environment (if it passes back and forward testing respectively).
I really like robot trading because I can rarely be up for london opens and I know I will always be a mechanical trader for the most part, so programming EA's is very convenient... especially if a 24hr trading method is needed.
With that said I'm making the switch to EA trader although I doubt my aspects of being a non robotic trader have much of an advantage..
I would like to open the thread to any related topics.. any EA's you find interesting, best brokers who support mt4, haters.. lol
