    Hi - Just wanted to check whether v4 is also not compatible with Alpari UK due to the GMT offset issue mentioned above? Thanks.
As far as I know, Ea should run OK on Alpairi.

    Hi wackena - just wish to add my congratulations and thanks for posting your 'design' on this forum.

Being fairly new to forex, I also plan to run the EA on a demo account - my current EA is running on a GM offset = 1, so I will run it on this setting unless your next posting advises otherwise.

Kind regards
EA does not have GMT OffSet variable. I have not tested EA on all brokers, but should run OK with default settings

Hello,
I have installed in MT4 AVAFX, and trades are pretty much the same as in your mybookfx. Some fills are a bit different, I have a question, do you close manually when system is in good profit ? I also wanted to ask, I see it works as a martingale, since averages down and/or up on USDCHF and EURUSD. Thank you Mr. Wackena.
Enjoy every next minute that comes in your life!

Hi Wackena,
Great results with your EA, I must say! 😉
I have a question regarding backtesting it, and I hope you could help me. I have downloaded the EA from the Yahoo Group, mentioned earlier in the thread, and have tried to backtest v2, v3, and v4. However, I don't get any trades because of 'OrderSend error 131, invalid trade volume'.

I tried to backtest it on FxPro. They have a 5 digits price feed (eg. 1.37161), and their minimum lot size is 0.1 lot. Could you please tell me what settings I need to use when backtesting your EA? 😳

Thanks in advance! 😁

Best regards,
Yonex

So far, this has been total automated trading. I have not tried manual intervention, so I can not advise effect on any potential trading cyclic changes.

Appears broker is not accepting minimum lot step (0.01) EA is using. If your broker minimum lot step is 0.1, the set AccountType=1.

Thanks for your reply! 😄

In v2, I tried to set AccoutType=1, but I still get OrderSend error 131.
I also tried to set Lots=0.1, and MM=0.

In v3, I set Lots=0.1, MM=0, AccountType=1, BrokerPermitsFractional Lots=False, but I still get error 131.

I also tried to set AccountType=0, but that didn't help. 😭

Any suggestions? 😳

Try this:
BrokerPermitsFractitrue.
Lots=0.1
MM=0
AccountType=1

If this does not work, let me know and I will download FXPro demo to test.

I tried the settings you suggested, but it still gives me error 131. 😭
I have attached the settings I used for backtest in the attached set file.

If you would be so kind and download the FxPro demo and test it, that would be really great! It seems like FxPro wants you to register, and things like that, just to download their demo client, so I have prepared so you can download it without registering here: https://sharebee.com/7ceb69f6 😉

Hi Mr. Wackena,
In my MT4 , it hasnt closed the operations , and since you dont use manual intervention, I think I have something different, since Im using AVAFX MT4, its pretty much doing the same as your myfxbook, but it hasnt closed the trades that your account already closed,. Can you send me the set file you are using for your myfxbook, for EURUSD and USDCHf, or inform me if I can get it in the yahoo group.
thank you
rafael

hi wackena ,

I found a file 'Bogie-HedgeHog--IND-v1', is it an indicator? Do i need to place his file into indicator folder in my metatrader?

Can the EA work without this file?

By the way, may i know what is the difference among v21, v22, v23, v23a, v25, v26? Since they are not mention in previous posts so i am asking here.

Regards,
SIM

original v2 set Markets stops on all trades. Current Yahoo Group v2 and later versions only set Market Stop sl on last sequential trade, ie MaxTades=4. The first 3 trades uses stealth as tp & sl points are monitored by EA and uses OrderClose() call to exit trades. All posted versions use their default settings. No additional sets have been generated. Not sure, but difference could be different broker server times.

Yes, put indicator in /experts/indicator folder, then open with MetaEditor and compile EA, then load to chart.

Those versions were submitted by group members. I suggest using last versions v3a or v4a.

Good question. Even though versions 3, 3a, 4, 4a are doing good in demos, I'm just afraid it would jinx this account if I changed EA version. Strictly superstitiousness.

No, indicator has no effect on EA trading. Indicator is solely to allow visual monitoring.

I noticed that you do not have any open trades right now . Did you turn off the ea because of the FOMC announcement today ?

Thanks
