Subscribed. I am very interested in the good and bad. Obviously they won't tell us exactly when they do their trades but I would also be very interested to know how many pips they make and lose each week.

Jacko style trades (collective journal)

I really love how nice people are on this forum. Any other forum would tear him to shreds for not having read all 300+ posts before asking a question. Love the method by the way. I'll go back to lurking now.

On a related note, I will say that SSE_EA (both versions) seem to be major resource hogs compared to other EA's.

Sure, an Expert Advisor can do many things. MT4 basically allows a great amount of customization in the form of mini programs. These take the form of Indicators, Scripts and Expert Advisors. The EA can be programed to do a lot of things, ranging ...

The simple stupid system

Without some more complicated programing, manual trading using this system will be preferable to many. That of course is because some like to look at major trends or other indicators before using this or any other system. I personally love EA's ...

Thanks for that, fixed!

Sure, let me help since I've had the same issues. * Make sure you are running MetaTrader 4. This should be obvious but just in case others need the help. * Download the SSS.zip file I posted. In it, you will find the following files: 1. Dinapoli ...

Perhaps if we took a look at the larger trend. For example, if the hourly trend or daily trend was going down, then if the EA may be more likely to exit out of a long with 1 indicator crossing down instead of multiple indicators. And visa versa.

The funny thing is, I saw that and I saw a post a while back that mentioned it as well. Somehow, I interpreted the post to say 'don't worry about it'. It wasn't until I ran the tester that it hit home.

Fixed it. It was looking for the QQE indicator to be called QQE.ex4 So, all I had to do was rename one of my QQE indicators and like magic, it started working. On a related note, using default settings, I ran it in the tester using EU on a 4 hour ...

The simple stupid system

Correct. I have two EU and two GU charts open. One of each runs SSE and one of each runs SS. Neither runs both at the same time. Also, I have unique magic numbers for each of the two SSE's 'just in case'. I'll try running 1 chart with SSE and ...

SSE still not making any trades, SS is but it appears a tad bit off. Settings and charts: Settings for SSE B2: ----------- EA_MAGIC_NUM=694373 iOpenHour=0 HoursToTrade=24 Title1=Signal Configuration EMA_Close_Period=5 EMA_Open_Period=8 ...

Frown means that it's not live trading. Click on the frown and then click on 'Common' tab then make sure there is a check in the 'Allow Live Trading' check box. That will turn that frown upside down

The simple stupid system

Yeah, I had it set to 10 hours and at the time I took the shot, I was outside of that time period. Quick question. I have a sneaky feeling that I may have the wrong settings for my GMT. I'm in the central US with a GMT of -6 (and the system only ...

The simple stupid system

Here are the two charts in comparison. First, the SS chart, then the SSE Beta 2 chart. I'm sure there is a setting I have set wrong somewhere.

The simple stupid system

Well, I guess I'm having issues too, mine won't even make trades. The other EA posted a few pages back as 'SS' works just fine. Really kind of odd.

The simple stupid system

Are you using unique numbers for each one?

The simple stupid system

Also testing Beta 2 along side of SS. EURUSD and GBPUSD with both EA's, all on the M15 chart. So far, SS is the only one making the trades. I'll post comparative charts later on Tuesday.

Thanks, I'm going to give this a look. I'm an former developer, new to the ForEx and I love this aspect about MT4.
