Bob, Seeing as we are trading all currencies, some of these will be highly correlated. Have you ever experienced multiple death trades occuring during your testing. Say, for instance, we get on the wrong side of the Gbp/Yen and the Eur/Yen and they ...

Bob, You didn't mention how you produced your equity graphs. Also, you can run 0.01 trades with a $3000 account, so i was wondering if you had a $10000, coudl you run it with 0.03 i wonder? Also, how do you start your demo accounts with specified ...

Bob, How do you produce your equity charts that you show on here? Had a great day yesterday closing out both EAs i am running, 40/100 with $180 for the day and the 40/50 with around $70, not bad. How is your feeling about building an account with ...

Hey Bob, I am going to start a 40/50 EA running, and i was wondering how you dealt with this EA? I am going to initiate the EA at the beginning of the Asian session the same as the 40/100. When are you closing out the trades with this EA? Steve

Hi Dave, Its great that you are testing different scenarios though. I am new to this as well, but it seems logical to me to start the EA at the start of a new daily candle. Now i know this varies from platform to platform but i think the most common ...

Yes, thats a good idea, i will do that tomorrow. It really does fluctuate, just before i went to work i had $70 banked profit and my open trades had gone down to just $-20 so i closed them all and took the net profit of $50. I now have $90 profit in ...

Hi Bob, I am going to re-read the thread again and make some more notes. I do remember you listing some things regarding the stochs that you looked for when deciding whether to take profit or not. Does this apply when using the daily EA with 100-40? ...

Just a question for anyone using this EA. I was wondering what sort of profit and loss you would roughly see in a days trading. I know this is probably a stupid question as it will undoubtedly vary from day to day. I just wondered if anybody had a ...

Thanks Bob for your answers, that makes sense. I only have the executable file so i am unable to look at the code. I would really like to see how it uses the open and close times for the different sessions and it would really speed things up if i ...

Using the EA? — hi Bob, I have just read this thread and you have indeed put a lot of hard work into all of this and i am very impressed with what you have come up with. This is definitely a case of thinking outside the box and approaching ...

Euro approaching major support at 5340-60 area, but dollar is pumping, so is this one of those cases when you should not take a punt against. Will have moved 160 pips today if it gets there. Very possible you would see some retracement there, or ...

Gbp/Chf — Have to see how the IRS on GBP is today but good levels to watch IMO: Long: 2.0478-2.0496 Short: 2.0786-2.0804 We have already seen price rejected off a very nice level of 2.0658 late yesterday, which would have been a nice short ...

Nice work going on here. Something to note on the geppy is the strong diagonal up trend line on the daily which it bounced off yesterday. We are in an uptrend and price smashed back up through the previous support level at 211.58 yesterday, which ...

Thanks Paulus, I see what you mean by that trade, i didn't realise that you would take an entry when the initial signal and entry was not valid. In this case, a further signal and entry bar confirmed and you took it, even though this second down bar ...

Hi Paulus, Not trying to pick holes here, just tying to understand the system. The long entry at 07:00, the stoch did not tick up on the up bar that followed the signal bar, is this no longer a rule? What about the long at the close of the 09:20 ...
