Hi Wolfe, It looks like you are still on beta 4. I put those fixes for you in beta 5 Rick

Great! How have you got it set up? Rick

Hi Wolfe, I'm really glad you are testing this. I put that code just as the market was closing, and ran a few tests yesterday on the LaGuerre stuff I fixed for you. I don't see in the comments that LaGuerre cross is selected. Are you sure it is set ...

Hi Steve, In the current version the sp and tp are maintained internally by the EA. In older versions, they were set in the order itself. My guess is that the original programmer did this because many traders like to hide their stops from brokers ...

I can't see the thumbnail for some reason, but why don't you make the entry criteria a few indicators as possible to reduce the filtering? Also, check the journal and expert tabs for errors. Rick

Thanks! We are still finalizing the details, but I'm sure no help will be turned down. Rick

Carol's so nice, I added het twice Rick

Hi Steve, Thanks for volunteering. SL and TP are manually entered. If you specify values, they will be used. Otherwise, all actions are strictly based on the indicators. Rick

Hi All, Has anyone seen any major issues with Beta5? I want to make sure I can fix as many bugs as possible before next week. The list of current testers looks like this: Matt Orion Glenn Carol Dee FXTradera Eureka Focus Wolfeman Rick So far The ...

Hi Orion, That is really a great idea. We should probably get a definitive count of testers and then divide up the test criteria. If possible, we can get everyone set up with their environments and ftp accounts before Friday so that we can begin ...

Hi Tradera, 1. Yes, if entry criteria is met, it should place a trade if you are in the time window, even if you change it on the fly. It checks the time values live, not just at initialization. 2. Not entirely. It will not open any new orders, but ...

Hi Orion, I agree that the account size, margin, and risk should be the same for all tests. I have been thinking about possible approaches to testing that would give us the most data over the course of 1 market week periods. Given the number of ...

Supernova GBP/JPY Mini Trend Catcher

Hi Tradera, Great tests! With regard to exits, that is always the tricky bit. Those default settings for entry and exit indicators used are more or less random, though the indicator values are close to the accepted settings for strategies using ...

Beta5 — Hi Wolfe, Good catch! I think Glenn will be very happy. There have always been problems with LaGuerre and when I took over the code the first thing I did was fix the fact that it was not being reliably tested. I assumed the logic was ...

Hi Matt, Yes, the USDCHF can definitely surprise! The GBPUSD is probably better for the first round of testing, as you suggest. I am very glad to hear that beta4 is behaving (and that it made 500USD). If it held together for everyone else, then we ...

Supernova GBP/JPY Mini Trend Catcher

Hi Matt, Good ideas about brokers and account type and size. Yes, we can definitely substitute GBPUSD for EURUSD. USDCHF would not be too bad either. Rick

I looked at the code and I never write that comment or change the inputs directly, so that looks like just an MT4 generated optimizer comment. I don't think it is a bug. It looks like the step you specified in the optimizer is 4. Rick

Supernova GBP/JPY Mini Trend Catcher

Thanks, I'll take a look. Rick

Supernova GBP/JPY Mini Trend Catcher

Hi Tradera, That is a very good idea and, as luck would have it, easy to code. I am waiting from the regulars to hear if I Beta 4 seems clean to use for the upcoming tests. If all the original plus new functionality is OK, then I will generate a ...

Hi Carol, Thank you very much for volunteering! We need to be as efficient as possible with our testing as their are quite a few variable for this EA. My first suggestion would be that we settle on a basic starting point that we can use as a ...
