Thanks for the recap. And, to be clear, exactly which pairs are traded in this setup? I saw mention of cable and swissy, but, just want to make sure I understand exactly which pairs are recommended with this setup. Thanks! Bill

Firebird EA - fixed version -

Hi Skyline: (that's the name of the high school my son goes to here in Sammamish, WA) Thanks for sharing your results. What settings, pairs and timeframes were used to derive these results? This was based on forward testing on a demo account, ...

Firebird EA - fixed version -

Could you provide some details or paste statements comparing the two? Are you running with default settings for both? What pairs/timeframes? Thanks.

Important to note is that said indicator shows all signals. Once in a trade, Phoenix does not exit upon receiving a reversing signal.

Update by installation. Some in sync with MQL4.com contest installation, some not, some oddities. A) Entered long at 118.14 (similar to long entry just made on MQL4.com) B) Still hasn't placed any trades. Is IBFX not allowing Phoenix_4_CONTEST from ...

I've logged this proposal. Just to be clear, what you're suggesting is to triple the number of lots after 2 consecutive losses with the assumption that the next trade will be a winner (because backtesting shows only a max of 2 consecutive losses, ...

Hi Artemos: As I'm trying to help out here by collecting proposals, could you kindly elaborate on exactly what issue this suggestion is looking to resolve? Is it the issue of people attempting to synchronize their testing results with those posted ...

Hi Artemos: Just to be clear, you're proposing two features. 1. Close out all positions when the total account equity increases by xxx$ (e.g. user-defined). 2. Determine TP based on x distance from a pivot point based on an hourly timeframe. ...

One more follow up question on this. Hendrick, can you post the detailed trade record? Do the Test A trades from Oct 1st onward align with the results seen in the MQL4.com championship? (I'm hoping that is the case as I'm yearning to see backtest ...

This is excellent. With such a low MaxDrawdown, you can double up on your lots and thus double your ROI beating hands-down the other options in terms of Net Profit while keeping MD at or below the others. With this, I see Classic (Mode 1) with ...

I began 4 demo accounts yesterday running Phoenix 4.x/5.x at 2 brokers as follows. All installations began running within 30 minutes of one another. I don't recall exactly the order in which they were started up, so the A-B-C-D sequence doesn't ...

Maybe because the contest version uses different settings for USDJPY? (That's my understanding anyway, see my earlier post on this.)

One more I forgot (and a biggie in my book): Nov 12: [T] perform backtest over time period of contest and correlate results; substantiate the idea that backtesting results are accurate and meaningful

While I'm new to this thread, I'd be willing to help out with maintaining a consolidated feature request list. I used to own a software company and that was a big part of what I did. However, having just spent several hours over the last couple of ...

fast_period > slow_period — In looking through the code and default/optimal settings, one thing has had me confused. Namely, the reason why some pairs default settings have fast_period > slow_period. For example, the following pairs ...

differences in settings from contest version — I'm comparing the default settings on USDJPY in v4.203 with v5.603 with the version of the EA posted on the MQL4.com contest page. Here are the default settings for v5.603: Percent = 0.0032; ...

Phoenix 2007 (new thread)

In your P5 install are you using the default P5 settings for USDJPY or are you using the settings used for the contest version (which are different than the default P4.203 settings? I assume you're using the contest settings, but just wanted to make ...

something "devious" with deviation percent? — This point was raised before in this thread, but, I don't recall seeing an answer. Unfortunately, for whatever reason, thread searching isn't working right now so I can't pinpoint the ...

code clean-up from v4.x to v5.x — Hendrick: Great job cleaning up and re-organizing the code in v5.x. I like your style! One very minor thing. In the divergence section that has been streamlined by removing maF1 and maS1, the code is still ...

Phoenix 2007 (new thread)

Okay, I've researched this some more and have a better handle on this. Besides code clean-up in v5.x (good job Hendrick!), I understand there to be two new options applicable even in Classic mode, e.g. ClosedAfterHours and BreakEvenAfterPips. See ...
