Yes I did .. I would like for the members here do not apply arbitrarily and does not respect the other members even blatantly hurting the feelings of the other members who also have a lot to contribute on this forum .. I've done some talks with other members and some other moderators .. and I judge that I needed to straighten .. I've been trying to speak politely to Aroman it, but how disappointed I am with her ​​grammar is too disparaging others

I just want to know just what he purposes to do raising member, and what happened, , if a man worthy of honor and success to say things that are not appropriate. I will support him 100% even if it means he could make members of this forum a success, but what happens is that spoken sentences pride

 

I just want to know the purpose of raising member he did, if it is beneficial, then I would support it 100% without becoming a member he is though, I do not want But he has other goals that could mislead the members of this forum, When I ask these things in him, then he can not answer a word.

 

I therefore want to ask you also to members who have followed the pattern, whether you're really lucky in his trading system? if anyone has been lucky / profit, then good things are presented diforum. but if not, then I think it is an organized scam. I waited 7 days to receive a further response. and for as long as Aroman to rest first ..

Who died and made you my guardian protector???

Free speech was going on, and obviously quite a few people were interested in what was happening.

In other words, it's an A, B conversation. C your way out of it if you don't like it. Otherwise, leave us alone!

If I'm not happy with Aroman's "grammar", or if he's "hurting [my] feelings", I'm a big boy and will tell him so.

What lame excuses you bring. Why don't you just admit what caused you to squelch the free speech in that thread!

As far as the other couple of mother hens; self-appointed co-guardian protectors, the same applies to you guys. A, B, C your way out of the conversation. Save the rest of us the tediousness of reading your drivel.

Actually I am looking forward for the author announcement on this.

They've already acknowledged what happened in an email to subscribers:

Wow, what a week we've had...the markets were definitely not kind to Kangaroo compared to recent times. This week was packed with lots of uncertainty, nervosity and panic in the markets which resulted in higher than usual volatility...we're all seen it in our charts this week.

We're truly sorry Kangaroo did hit a SL today on EURUSD. It was bound to happen sometime, with no SLs whatsoever since over 8 months of trading, but it's always a shock when a SL does hit.

We've received alot of emails regarding this, and we noticed the tone of voice was remarkably supportive and understanding. Thank you. Thank you.

This gives us renewed energy and empowerment to pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off and go at it.

Because....the Roo will fight back, stronger than ever...!

First, some background on the EURUSD trade: Kangaroo was programmed to trade as it did today. Notice how we got only a few pips from TP before the EURUSD pair reversed and never looked back. Kangaroo is coded to continue its effort to recover by opening new trades, even when news is coming up or rolled over into a non-trading day (Fridays).

However, when price drops too fast...it won't open new trades and might hit SL before it had a chance to deploy all three trades. This happened on some brokers. Most of us got the max three trades however. Kangaroo did not run out of control...the markets did. And that's was an unfortunate but inevitable happening.

Regarding this logic, we (and some of you) came up with a great idea regarding this very -unlucky- issue. See below.

Here's what's in the pipeline:

1. KangarooEA v6.2:

New newstrading logic: when trades are open and a flagged news item comes up, Kangaroo will seek to close the trades at BE or small loss. We'll have to test and play with settings (when to choose to close at loss/BE or not, etc) but we feel this might be an excellent weapon against losses such as today. Some of you wrote us with similar solutions, and we wish to greatly thank you for that.

Option to hide SL and TP: as you know by now, we don't trust brokers. And in some of the reports we've received, we notice some brokers might have been 'messing around' with the trades. When they can't see SL and TP...we'll make it harder for them to do so.

Improved logic in the way Kangaroo opens subsequent trades. We do like the current trade logic, but we might be able to improve it even more with some ideas we have.

2. Gold members forum:

The new forum is setup and almost ready to go. Here you can find anwers to all your questions or post new ones. We hope this will free up more time for us to focus on new development and improvements of trading. Moreover, we can share ideas there and make things better and more efficient...for all of us.

We're also preparing a blogpost with our conclusions about brokers. All your emails and reports have been instrumental in our research and we've reached preliminary conclusions on which brokers Kangaroo will trade optimal. If you have not send in any reports and/or broker info, please do so. It might help us affirming our -preliminary- conclusions.

Thanks again for the supportive words...and trust me when I say the SLs of the last couple of days have hit us hard. But we're keeping the fighting spirit and we all will emerge stronger and better.

Until next time, and be safe out there during these turbulent times...!

Let's go ahead and do the compounding though. I've got nothing better to do.

Their myfxbook page on the small live account shows the following monthly percentages gained each of the first 4 months of 2011: 6.11, 6.95, 12.38, and 4.75 currently for April.

We'll leave the profits in the account starting with $10,000.

Compounding the profits, at the above monthly increases, the profit month to month would have been: 611.00, 737.46, 1404.94, and 605.79

For a total profit of 3359.19

Still only paid the $211 upfront and 45 x 3 months subscription (346).

So the account at this point would have been worth $13,013.19 ((10,000+3359.19)-346)

Leaving the money in the account and compounding it month to month makes quite a difference!

Total net profit on the original $10,000: 3,013.79

In other words, for about $45 a month, the bot, thus far in 2011, has generated an average of $753 a month on the original $10,000.

Ask the bank to give you that on your $10,000 deposit with them :-)

"Overpriced" is a relative term. Relative to the size of the account. Looking at their small live account

http://www.myfxbook.com/members/TulipFX/kangarooea-small-live-c/68427

it's averaged approximately 7.5% per month for the first 4 months of 2011 looking at it in rough terms.

That's an average of $750 per month on a $10,000 account. Not even including compounding the monthly profit month to month. So for the four months, that would have been a profit of $3,000 (again, excluding figuring compounding month to month). 750 x 4

The bot cost about $211 upfront plus approximately $45 per month for the subscription (1st month subscription included in the $211 upfront cost). Total cost to run it for four months: $346 (211+(45x3))

Total net profit: $2,644 ($3,000 - $346)

You would have made $2,644 after paying expenses of $346.

Overpriced?

This ea is total ****! Don't believe the hype. I bought this EA expecting things to be what they claimed. You can see their accounts on myfxbook and see that this ea will not pay for itself and cover the costs unless you trade on a 10k account at 20% risk.

 

Oh and just so everyone knows, the tulip guys sent out an email today to make everyone aware that you have to multiply the risk setting by 4 to get the TRUE DD risk. So the default of 5% is really a 20% risk.

 

They also claimed in the email that all the platforms closed in profit with is another lie. You can see for yourself on their myfxbook

Maybe someone can post the calculator they use to add all that up and get a positive number. That is the traded from their account not mine. Although mine had a similar loss.

 

And if you do buy this thinking you can get a refund... forget about it. They refused me telling me that it's profitable and I must be doing something wrong.

Jayman,

I've been trading it since March 20th and I wouldn't qualify for a refund either. Because it's been profitable.

Trading on a thousand dollar account it's up $74, currently trading at .06 lots each trade. So it at least paid for the monthly subscription in it's first month.

Clearly, if I had traded it with 2,000 in the account it would have made a profit after paying the subscription price.

They don't claim that each single trade closed at profit. It trades a type of basket system (when the first trades gets into drawdown) and it closes the basket out at a profit, though one, two of the trades in the basket may close at a loss.

The TulipFX guys only stay in business if the EA is profitable. Nobody will stay in a monthly subscription long if it isn't profitable.

I plan on depositing more money as I gain confidence in the bot.

If one trades at roughly .05 per thousand, and the thing made $74 at .06, it would have netted roughly $150 for $2,000 on deposit. Don't try and tell anyone the bank will give you that kind of money on a $2,000 deposit.

63 views and zero reaction.....?????

We're becoming calloused!

i will open it up later, for now lets see if this makes sense and lets also try to crack the CODE lol

 

i have been using this mod on a live account for 2 months, small cent account though, noting goes tru to the big accounts till 1 year (i am serious)

Showbaba1, What is the biggest drawdown you've had over the two months using your modified EA on the live account? And what timeframe are you using on the live account? H4? Would you mind providing a .set file for the configuration you have on the live account? Has the EA run uninterrupted during that 2 months, or have you manually closed out trades? Thanks

Thanks for opening it up Showbaba1.

Just for comparison of settings between the two:

Thanks Showbaba1, I was just googling, looking for information since I didn't have an inputs tab when loading the EA, absent any other instructions. 11.89 profit factor is insanely high....lol.

Personally, I would prefer being able to backtest, change settings to my liking, etc. Live or die by my own decisions on what the settings are set at.....

For example, I might want to take a smaller profit target, or, I might want to trade less aggressively than on a setting of 4.

From the other thread, and what I can see of possible user-adjustable settings:

ENGLISH=1

DISPLAY_HELP=0

PART_1=-- TRADE MANAGEMENT --

MaxTrades=5

TakeProfit=50.00000000

StopLoss=500.00000000

TrailStop=15

Agressive=4

PART_2=-- SETTING MARTINGALE --

UseMartingale=1

ClsAllAtProfit=1

DynamicTP=1

ClosePrevOrder=0

FirstLot=0.10000000

StepOrder=20

AddProfit=3

PART_3=-- TIME LIMITED TRADING --

JamMulai=0

JamStop=24

TradingJumat=1

PART_4=-- DO NOT TRADE ON NEWS --

AvoidNews=0

CloseOnNews=0

Jam_NewsX1=3

Jam_NewsX2=4

Jam_NewsX3=5

Jam_NewsX4=17

Jam_NewsX5=18

Why cripple the EA? No one can blame you if they change settings and lose money. Besides, if one wants to go with default settings they can always revert to the "reset" button in the EA's settings dialog.

11.89 Profit Factor???? In our dreams!

Ran Strategy test from 1st of August on H4 time frame.

See thread here (started 02/16/09): http://www.tradingsystemforex.com/expert-advisors-demo-statements/822-kancing-baju-dancing-bear-not-real-translation.html

The EA "Kancing Baju 1.3-Rev.B.ex4" (named Biola EA here) provided in the 1st post at tradingsystemforex only works on demo accounts apparently. I loaded it on a FXOpen penny account and got a notification. However, unlike the one posted here, I do get an Inputs tab when opening the expert's properties dialog.

http://76.92.186.216:8080/F1C86/Screen_shot_2010-11-19_at_5.44.16_AM

Screen shot with it applied to a chart. However, when pulling up the expert's properties box there is only a "Common" tab. No access to change any parameters.

Bump, Can someone share this please? TIA!

it is weird... if the backtest works the live trade must works too

who is the broker? to may i've try...

Broker is FXDD. It will accept a .1 size lot size for live trades, but I don't want to trade that large. Tried .01, and .05 lot sizes and neither works. Get the error message each time. However .01 does work in the strategy tester. Must have something to do in the coding and their requirement to have a minimum of $4,500 to trade the usdjpy (I'm guessing).

Musketeer, I tried your mod out and (speaking of the usdjpy) it works fine during a strategy test, but when trying to trade it on a live account I get an error message "Your account does not have micro lots. Please change your account type with your broker."

That is a micro account. I changed AdaptLots to false, and changed both balance entries to $450 to try to trade the usdjpy on a small account.

Any idea what's wrong?

Thanks
