  1. Re: DRAGONPIPS

     

    I know my risk is high but backtesting continues to show high profits and until I start to lose more than what I started with for the previous week I will keep this up

     

    My live account over 14 weeks has averaged 19.6% per week, so happy with this

     

    As I make more will start to tune down the risk, if i start to go backwards will also tune down risk and try to work out why and make the necessary changes

     

    whatever the risk is, it wont make you win more trades, if your losing consistantly then the EA needs to be reviewed, so far though 110% happy with Dragonpips for 2009 with EURCHF, maybe next year a different pair will exceed EURCHF in performance and different hours traded also as the market continues to change

  2. Re: DRAGONPIPS

     

    One did, the other hung in there (around 10 pips away from opening price) for around 24 hours (over night) but closed out to loss due to that huge spike

     

    But, I am not concerned, you can see in backtesting it will lose from time to time but overall stays quite profitable. I had my live account today this week alone go from $5300 to $5960 but now back to $1490 due to that spike

     

    If the spike had gone one pip less, it would not have closed out for a loss as it came back and would have closed another profitable trade and I would be up to around $6200 by now. Oh well, thats trading for you

     

    Time to build this up again

  3. Re: DRAGONPIPS

     

    I have disabled the time protection completely, the versions I posted have this disabled by default

     

    I will be trading live from tomorrow for GoMarkets 21-3, JadeFX 20-2

     

    But with the tp=6 not 5, the versions I posted have the 5 TP

     

    Only EURCHF pair though, trades =2, 50% risk, lot decimal =2

  4. Re: DRAGONPIPS

     

    Yep, only pair that is making consitant profit is EURCHF, but markets change, last year EURGBP was the pair to trade when looking for scalping opportunities during the Asian trading session

     

    My 2 JadeFX trades havent really moved at all, buy and sell within 4 pips from the price it opened

  5. Re: DRAGONPIPS

     

    Try backtesting EURCHF with the order protection off (the versions I posted) trading GMT 19-1

     

    For JadeFX for example (GMT +1) 20-2, max trades 2 risk 50%

     

    Tp - 6 (5 is default)

    SL - 32

     

    $5300 start, from April 5 to today it takes it makes $1,222,507.64 90% modelling with only 9.42% risk

     

    I know backtesting it not 100% accurate but nevertheless stunning results!!!!

  6. Re: DRAGONPIPS

     

    Strange, I am using V4 on JadeFX live account EURCHF only 20-23 trading max trades 2 risk 50%

     

    and it has opened a buy and sell, still both open, not seeing any errors or bugs

     

    I have have traded this on my ECN goMarkets and had two profitable trades, no probs there either

  7. Re: DRAGONPIPS

     

    Thanks Chankl78 for posting these latest Dragonpips versions

     

    I have found the setting to disable the time protection in the code in the versions you have posted today

     

    Please download and enjoy!! you will find it backtests more profitable having the time protection off, but again I would only trade EURCHF and maybe EURGBP if your spreads are low enough, all other pairs are too volatile in the long term

  8. Re: DRAGONPIPS

     

    Here are my last two weeks live trading with Dragonpips

     

    GoMarkets broker, trading 21-24 max trades 2 risk 50%, using V3 universal, only EURCHF pair

     

    http://www.4shared.com/file/133966388/3599eefa/Dragonpips.html

     

    I have been trading DP for over 12 weeks now, taken my live account from $487 to $5300

     

    Can't post full statement as I have been using other EA's and manually trading but 80% of this profit has come from Dragonpips

     

    The biggest reason I have found to my success with Dragonpips is only using EURCHF and manually trying to overcome the timed stop loss protection in DP. Let me explain

     

    For example, after a few hours DP will exit the trade if it gets to around -1 or -2 pips. Every time I have seen this I have noticed not long after the trade would have hit its original TP (5-6 pips). Remember I am only using EURCHF as this is a very rangey pair

     

    So what I need to do is wait about an hour or two and if the trade is still open, I deactivate Dragonpips to stop this happening and let it hit TP or I close it manually when it hits 3-6 pips in profit

     

    If someone can code V3 universal or any other updated version to either allow the user to disable the timed order protection or set the timed stop loss to hit 0 pips (breakeven) not -1 or -2 pips this would really help this EA to be even more profitable

     

    Due to Dragonpips using large lot sizes losing 1 or 2 pips vs breakeven can really make the difference

  9. Re: DRAGONPIPS

     

    Dragonpips must have some kind of timer where it closes the trade after a certain period of time usually at -1 pip

     

    I have found that almost everytime the trade eventually goes the right way

     

    Can anyone find in the V3 universal code somewhere that we can adjust the open order trade time before it looks to get the trade out at the -1 pip setting?

     

    Dont want to disable it altogether as I see why its there as the later the day goes on the more risky the pair gets to moving and spiking but if we can adjust it? I would like it to extend by approx another hour or two

  10. Re: DRAGONPIPS

     

    I didnt test Extreme, as I am using live account and didnt want to waste a day of not trading

     

    Figured a few people here would test so was waiting for confirmation before placing this on my live account

     

    Lucky I did wait and only use V3 as this has done well for me today and V4 didnt trade for any ECN broker form what I have been hearing

     

    I'm sure Mecman2 will fix V4 as he did a great job with V3 and then when it is confirmed to be making trades I will move to V4

  11. Re: DRAGONPIPS

     

    Chankl78 are you using max trades 2 or 5 for DP?

     

    I am using max trades 2 with V3 and only got two trades (traded 21-24 with my broker who is GMT +2) closed at profit and one still floating

     

    This was with GoMarkets though. You seem to have a lot more trades than me

  12. Re: DRAGONPIPS

     

    Thanks corrupt05, interesting....

     

    Problem is I cant even get V4 to trade on mt GoMarkets or JadeFX broker, only V3 universal

     

    There must be something inside these later versions that are causing them not to trade ECN/STP brokers

     

    I believe Mecman2 modded the V3 to work so hoping he will come back and do his magic (or anyone else) with this version 4 or Extreme
