Hi traders,

to make life a little bit easier, I made special versions of my indicator and Forexi's EA. The purpose was to fasten the backtest.

The new version is working "offline" regarding the signals....the EA can read the preproduced signals from a file.

So here is the howto:

1. Open a M15 chart of your choice and attach the indicator

2. Set the startdate of your desired testperiod (e.g. 2010.01.01)

3. You'll get a Datafile (.log) in the experts\files folder ....copy this file to tester\files

4. Forexi's EA got a setting "GetDataFromFile"...if set to true, the EA will read the signals from file

5. After the backtest you can open the chart and attach the indi...hopefully you'll see that signals and trades are matching

I've included a .set file with the settings i've used for some quick tests. e/u,g/u and u/chf are profitale since start of 2010...u/j is terrible

So there is some room left for playing with the settings...SL/TP/TS and money management. Should be ok in measures of time to use the Optimizer

Here it is: [email protected]/file/5OWcoNpV/LC_BT.html

One thing I've forgot to mention: Make sure that you delete existing logfiles in experts\files before attaching the indicator to a chart. I don't delete the file and you would get a mix of data

I've coded an indicator with buy/sell arrows for the LC system and gave up on the EA because of the extreme slow backtest.

Maybe some1 familiar with the system can have a look at the indi and tell me whether it's showing the correct signals and/or it's worth to be improved

The indicator is based on the MX System and only has the MA(84) as selectable FX component.
