No 'forced' trade to gain 'Trading Privileges' v Box s návrhmi Nov 30, 2009 at 14:17

Fair point on the decompiled EA and I am glad to hear you will be posting the source code (although simply making the MQ4 downloadable instead of the EX4 would be the better option). I didn't think you had anything to hide at all and hope I did not imply that.And fair point on the 'optional' part. I guess I just didn't really like the fact that my pages now have this very obvious and highly visable red mark against them when I know I have done nothing wrong and I myself have nothing to hide.I am concerned about fake data and appreciate the efforts to try to counteract it. I als...

No 'forced' trade to gain 'Trading Privileges' v Box s návrhmi Nov 30, 2009 at 13:33

Guys. As much as I love the site and the work you are doing on it, I have to say that requiring us to make a trade with a specific comment in order to gain the 'Trading Privileges' verification has not been thorougly thought out.I had no problem providing my investor password so you could verify the trades I have uploaded. Excellent idea to counteract fack uploads.I had no problem running an EA to further confirm the trades are legitamite ... EVEN THOUGH the source code for this EA is not apparently available and so I cannot verify what you are actually able to do in this EA. Trust goe...

Strategy Tester results v Box s návrhmi Sep 24, 2009 at 12:53

I like the idea of having backtests excluded from systems and that could easily be done with a 'live/demo/backtest' setting. Only when setting t0 backtest would you get the ability to import the report and once it is a backtest then it can't be changed to anything else.

Not at all. I appreciate your support.In fact you have said the same thing I am after but in a different way :)

I think it would be nice to have the ability to upload a Strategy Tester report to show off the analysis. I understand that nothing beats forward testing, but backtesting analysis would be great too.

View Pip and/or Cash Profits Per Currency Pair v Box s návrhmi Sep 04, 2009 at 16:16

A pip graph is a great idea, but I am not sure how accurate it could be. Consider this scenario ...I place a buy order, the market goes up 50pips before my order is closed. I have earned 50pips right?Nope. I can have it show that I have earned 150pips.At 10pips I close 1/5th of the order giving a 10pip profit.At 20pips I close another 1/5th giving me extra 20pips (plus the previous 10pips for a total so far of 30pips)Do this every 10pips and that 50pip movement netted you 150pips.Now there is nothing wrong with trading that way, but from an investors point of view would you go for the trader w...

Multiple portfolios under the same account v Box s návrhmi Aug 23, 2009 at 19:34

I thought this is how it worked now. Does 1 portfolio not equal 1 trading account?

Filtering trades on Magicnumber (for MT4) v Box s návrhmi Aug 20, 2009 at 09:03

Would it not be better to run the EA on a seperate account?However, having an analysis table that can be grouped by EA would provide valuable information for single accounts running multiple EA's

Reset portfolio v Box s návrhmi Aug 18, 2009 at 22:47

I absolutely agree. It would be fantastic to be able to see all the previous transactions that relate to the same trader/system, and that is why I suggested being able to reset an account.Perhaps instead of removing all the old trades, they could simply be flagged as 'other account trades' so a historical record is kept ... or perhaps the ability to have multiple accounts belonging to the same discussion thread?And I would also like to see other opinions also (and as someone who has jointly operated a successful forum in the past) the way to do that is to encourage as much discussion a...

If anybody is after an MT4 Indicator or EA, I am available as a coder. Some of my previous work is published on my site <a href="http://theguruonline.biz">theguruonline.biz</a>

Display Name vs User Name v Box s návrhmi Aug 18, 2009 at 21:19

What would be the chance of having a display name for the discussions that is different to the login name. I know this may seem minor, but I actually prefer to be called something other than 'allanneagle' but that is what everyone sees as the poster.

opps. Sorry. My mistake.Thanks for correcting that for me :)

Guru 50-50 2nd try v Obchodné systémy Aug 18, 2009 at 20:59

This is my second attempt to take a $50 account and earn 50pips per day over a little more than a month. This will result in then future trading of 50pips per week for a $25,000/week income.I have changed a couple of basic account setup options after my first attempt ...Standard account instead of mini because demo accounts cannot be altered400:1 leverage instead of 200:1 which simply gives me the ability to have more trades open concurrently.Day 1: completed in under 3 hours with a 58pip gain

Guru 50-50 v Obchodné systémy Aug 18, 2009 at 20:55

It depends on the trade realy ... and your definition of scalper. What I have learned from this first attempt is that most of the time I can actually go for 25-50 pips per trade. But then it depends on what the market is doing at the time, right? :)This account is now inactive. My new account can be found at https://www.myfxbook.com/portfolio/guru-50-50-2nd-try/166

Reset portfolio v Box s návrhmi Aug 18, 2009 at 20:44

Sorry, but I can very easily 'hide' (for want of a better word) my mistakes in the first account by simply deleting it ... could I not?At the end of the day, if an account is successful then that account is successful and so is the trader. The longer the account is traded successfully, the more successful the trader. If I had seen that the trader had made some mistakes to start with (because of the comments in the discussion thread) and the learned from those mistakes and not made them again, I would be happier than a trader that seemed to be perfect from day 1.Just a second thought, p...

Reset portfolio v Box s návrhmi Aug 18, 2009 at 20:39

Good suggestion biz101 and I will continue doing that for now ... but the widget relies on the portfolio number, as does the discussion thread.I completely understand the transparency aspect, but I am also thinking about tidyness of the site. In the case I outlined above, yes I could just add the new account which will now mean there will be 2 accounts one of which will no longer be useful as well as 2 discussion threads both starting off with basically the same post ... although the second thread would also now have to explain why this is a second account.Now I would like to suggest that anyb...

Reset portfolio v Box s návrhmi Aug 18, 2009 at 16:07

Could we please have a way to reset a portfolio to new, removing existing data.Here is my scenario ... the account that I am publishing here I had to restart (because I margined out and am starting again)Because there is a new account number, I cannot publish the new data to my existing portfolio.I could delete the account and add a new one, but as I have already discovered this will change my 'number' which will break any links I already have given out and will also not link up with the discussions.Thanks

Guru 50-50 v Obchodné systémy Aug 18, 2009 at 15:58

Thanks admin :)Day 3 : Started off fantastically. Got my 50pip target very early and decided to start day 4 to catch up on yesterdays loss. This turned out to be a massive mistake, mainly because I deviated from my trading rules and ended up margining out. There goes $50.So I gave myself a good beating, reafirmed my trading rules, and started again.Day result : +58pipsHopefully the new account will just replace the current records (although I haven't been able to get anything published for a number of hours. I noticed that I was not the only one so I figured I would just try it again later...

Guru 50-50 v Obchodné systémy Aug 17, 2009 at 22:15

Day 2 Summary : a very up and down day for me today. Twice I was over 40pips up for the day and then struck some bad trades. The later the day goes the worse things get and so I have actually ended up with a 38pip loss for the day <img src='http://static.myfxbook.com/images/smiley-sad.png' alt='😞'/>I am now done for this day and tomorrow is a new day.

Guru 50-50 v Obchodné systémy Aug 17, 2009 at 21:33

Sorry ... got my calculations wrong above (note to admins ... any chance of being able to edit posts?)I was actually 21pips down before the Friday close and got up this morning to 141pips up. I should have remembered that more clearly, but I had just woken up <img src='http://static.myfxbook.com/images/smiley-eek.png' alt='😲'/>
