Hi Carol, There was an article in Bloomberg that mentioned that many of the professional automated trading systems also had triuble handling recent events, but I am a big believer in account preservation and there are several ways I plan to address ...

Hi Carol, I will try to put together a draft today of the proposed test parameters. The first week we will just do a very basic setup so that we all get our environments stable and working with the ftp site Orion has been kind enough to provide. ...

Beta 6 Released — Hi SuperNovae, I am releasing beta 6 with the following changes: 1. A flag called HideStopAndTakeProfit has been added with a default of false. If you put a value other than 0 into the Stoploss and/or Takeprofit fields, it ...

The way the trailing psar works is that it does it's evaluation of whether or not to move the stop based on the CandleTrailStopPSAR input. If you specify 2, then on every new candle it will look at the PSar high and low candles 2 candles back from ...

The problem is that you did not change the indicator's parameters to match the EA. SF should be 1 and you have it set to 5. Rick

Hi Codox, Thanks for the information. I trade SuperNova manually and with the EA. I will take a look at this. We are currently ready to begin some group testing of the EA. I have a testbed that I run to evaluate methods that we might like to add to ...

Hi Faliowino, Could you please post a screen capture and the set file? Rick

Hi Orion, I am testing a method of getting in more quickly with QQE. It works, but is actually too reactive! I am working on a way to make sure it gets us in quickly, but without false signals. So, it seems as though maybe just the default PSar ...

Thanks, Matt! I have already decided to set bar 0 as the default, so your advice confirms what I am seeing. I haven't decided on the rest of the settings, but I suppose I could leave the defaults and just let people try it out. Also, I gave the ...

Hi Wolfe, CCI uses the 100 and -100 lines for it's decisions. I really need to make a short document explaining the inputs. The HA seems to be happier with candlesticks rather than OHLC bars Rick

Hi Orion, The only thing I am trying to decide on before the release is PSar default settings. I currently default it to the standard .02,.2,7 settings. In addition, I have provided a user input to specify the bar to use for the test. I have ...

Hi Orion, That is great news, thanks for gtting the FTP server ready. I also have noticed that timing makes a difference. Stopping the pairs from taking new orders through the dead zone when the lack of volatility muddles the signals has been ...

Hi Wolfe, I will look a little later. Really tired. Just got done with Beta 6 and am going to let it run a little. Should release it in a few hours. It has UserCommnet on screen and in order, PSAR entry and Exit, and a flag for either setting TP and ...

Hi Alex, This is just my personal opinion, but I don't believe in increasing lots to make up for losers. Losing is part of trading. Every trader has losses. It is better to stick with a disciplined approach (2% of account, for instance) and let the ...

Hi Pipsqueaker, I hate to ask, but could you please post a screen capture with the indicators that the app uses? Also, could you verify that the indicators on the screen are set to the same values as the EA? Also, could you check to see if their ...

I agree with Matt about XP. Mine is fine, but I also run my trading platform with only the trading software and no extra apps. I built this server myself and it has 2 PCIx 16 video ports, so it handles 4 monitors. However, since I am traveling, I am ...

Hi Tradera, Many of the brokers play fast and loose with their demo feeds viewing it more as a favor than a necessity. To those of us building automated strategies, it is more than annoying. Fortunately, the data is good most of the time, but the ...

Supernova GBP/JPY Mini Trend Catcher

Hi FalioWino, Yes, reduce the entry filters to just QQE to see if you get a signal. Also, that bad tick looks like your feed is returning bad historical data to MT4. I would close the platform, re-open it, then create a fresh demo account. Rick

Hi Matt, Thanks for the kind words. You and the rest of the SuperNovae are a pleasure to work with and I am really encouraged by the progress we have made. Rick

Hi Steve, I had mentioned in a post a while back that for really short TF's like you are using the fixed TP could be very effective. As the TF's get larger, long trends can really add to the profit and using the indicators along with the PSAR TS is ...
