Great. Thanks for this Wackena. But................ What are we going to use for the number of hours before close? How about a tolerable loss number for pips? I'm thinking 120 hours (5 days) and maybe 80 pips. Time enough to get over a few ...

Greg, What pairs are your favorites? This looks similar to the "25" system in some ways. Thanks for presenting it here. I like how you deal with exits.

Mike, I would love to get a copy of your Excel spreadsheet. You can send it to me at my email in my profile, or you could upload it here if you can just ZIP the file first. Thanks.

No MoneyMa$ter, I knew you weren't worried about the 100 pips. I was just kidding a little. (If I can do that on a day that I lose two 300 pip trades). I appreciate your thoughts on this and have often wondered about lowering the SL (why just hang ...

If you can find Accrete's homepage he has a pdf file that discusses all about the firebird. Also, go to the original thread where Mono was most active for some more thoughts on settings etc. I think the name of that thread was "please test this EA ...

MOneyma$ter, how much float are you carrying on your Firebirds? I know you closed 14 trades, but are even more still open? I had to close down my live account for the first time in over a month. Was afraid I would lose my shirt, then of course the ...

Well.... cgldsmth, I'm not down 90% but I must admit that the NFP dealt my account some pretty bad blows. Now showing a loss in equity instead of a gain. Doesn't seem to be coming around either! I'm thinking about actually closing all the trades ...

MoneyMa$ter..... Which script will you use to go LIVE? H04 or the regular TS? thanks. Just curious. I'm live on v1.0a with no frills.

M5 for me.

Well actually it works "internally" off of an M30 timeframe but what chart do we use for attaching the EA? I saw someone using M1 which has confused me. Firebird uses M30 internally but seems to work better on M5 or M1 charts. That was the reason ...

Help Test my new EA, FLYER!

Thanks for the new version. But.... I've all the docs and still am confused on what timeframe chart I am supposed to actually attach the EA. Is it M30? Or M1? Does it matter? Thanks for any clarification here.

Help Test my new EA, FLYER!

Pips are subjective? Of all the things that I can think of that are subjective, I would have to say that pips are definitley NOT. Also, I decide to go live with a system solely on what my performance with it has shown me. What else is ...

Post number 1 of this thread. Firebird v 1.0a. The JPY pairs are fixed and there is nothing fancy. I like it.

Copy the EA into the "Experts" directory. Then start up Metatrader. You should then be able to attach it to a chart.

Firebird EA, please test this one, it is one of the greats

I let my Firebird run 24/5 but shut off my trading PC Friday afternoon and turn it back on Sunday evening when trading begins. I've studied the percentages Firebird gets with settings like 35-250-25 and it trades just as well or better than I do ...

NOt sure about all your questions but here goes: Use the FB v1.0a available in the first post of this thread. On a thousand dollar mini lot I would trade four pairs at .25 mini lots. I am using the USDCHF, EURUSD, USDJPY, and USDCAD to good effect. ...

I just went into the Piploss input value when I started the EA and upped it to 1500 instead of 500. In fact, I did that after the EA was running and it cleared up the problem for me.

Firebird EA, please test this one, it is one of the greats

I'm afraid I wouldn't touch any Firebird at a 42 SL. I've changed my H04 to 300 for sure and am running on M5. I just haven't had any luck at all with less than 200 stop losses. You know, firebird trades against the so called trend, and I think for ...

I'm puzzled. Your FB H04 had two trades of -300 pips today? Or were they old trades from a week or two ago? Hmmmm.

Why did you close the trade? Just because it is going the wrong way now does not mean it will be next week. Or tomorrow. We will never know how well an EA performs unless we let it perform. Just a thought.
