any chance of a 'reverse trades' option - e.g. buy instead of sell and vice versa - it would make a killing on m5!

Neil, check in that way: http://content.screencast.com/users/myonlinecont/folders/Jing/media/b548ed33-5958-4c3b-800a-1115c1269f03/2011-08-30_1526.png

Hi Guys,
 
This EA is based on the manual system which is currently being enhanced, tested and traded in the thread:
 
http://indo-investasi.com/showthread.php/14520-Pip-Accumulator
 
I started a new thread for the EA, because I think it will be disruptive to the original thread to mix in EA discussions. So, please use this thread for anything related to the EA ;)
 
The EA is based on an earlier version of the II Pip Accumulator indicator (without multiple timeframe probabilities) and the code from the indicator has been replicated inside the EA.
 
Because the probability indicator which the EA uses operates over multiple timeframes, I don't think we can get accurate backtests, hence the EA will need to be forward tested.
 
The EA has various options, though I've not been able to test many of these (I'm sure that there will be plenty of bugs that need fixing if you start using options other than the current settings, so any keen EA developers, please feel free to amend whatever you like and repost it here). However, with the current default settings I'm getting excellent results running the EA on a 5m chart.
 
Please post your testing results and findings here, so that we can all work on creating a great "home grown" EA :)
 
Here's the most recent version of the EA and indicators (on 26th Sept 2011):

I also recommend that you read through the whole of the manual trading thread, so that you have the full background of where the EA development came from. Plus in the more recent posts you'll be able to download the most recent versions of the indicators II_Pip_Accumulator and II_Prob_Hist.
 
Here's a screen shot of what the indicators look like (I have these on the chart when running the EA, so that I can clearly see when and why the EA is making its decisions):

Step 4 - Conscious Competence
 
You are making trades whenever your system tells you to.
 
You take losses just as easily as you take wins
 
You now let your winners run to their conclusion fully accepting the risk and knowing that your system makes more money than it looses and when you're on a loser you close it swiftly with little pain to your account
 
You are now at a point where you break even most of the time - day in day out, you will have weeks where you make 100 pips and weeks where you lose 100 pips - generally you are breaking even and not losing money.
 
You are now conscious of the fact that you are making calls that are generally good and you are getting respect from other traders as you chat the day away.
 
You still have to work at it and think about your trades but as this continues you begin to make more money than you lose consistently.
 
You'll start the day on a 20 pip win, take a 35 pip loss and have no feelings that you've given those pips back because you know that it will come back again.
 
You will now begin to make consistent pips week in and week out 25 pips one week, 50 the next and so on.
 
This lasts about 6 months
 
Step Five - Unconscious Competence
 
Now we’re cooking - just like driving a car, every day you get in your seat and trade
- you do everything now on an unconscious level.
 
You are running on autopilot.
 
You start to pick the really big trades and getting 200 pips in a day doesnt make you any more excited that getting 1 pips.
 
You see the newbies in the forum shouting 'go dollar go' as if they are urging on a horse to win in the grand national and you see yourself - but many years ago now.
 
This is trading utopia - you have mastered your emotions and you are now a trader with a rapidly growing account.
 
You're a star in the trading chat room and people listen to what you say.
 
You recognise yourself in their questions from about two years ago.
 
You pass on your advice but you know most of it is futile because they're teenagers - some of them will get to where you are - some will do it fast and others will be slower - literally dozens and dozens will never get past stage two, but a few will.
 
Trading is no longer exciting - in fact it's probably boring you to bits - like everything in life when you get good at it or do it for your job - it gets boring - you're doing your job and that's that.
 
Finally you grow out of the chat rooms and find a few choice people who you
converse with about the markets without being influenced at all.
 
All the time you are honing your methods to extract the maximum profit from the market without increasing risk.
 
Your method of trading doesn’t change - it just gets better - you now have what women call 'intuition'
 
You can now say with your head held high "I'm a currency trader" but to be honest you don’t even bother telling anyone - it's a job like any other.
 
I hope you’ve enjoyed reading this journey into a traders mind and that hopefully you’ve identified with some points in here.
 
Remember that only 5% will actually make it - but the reason for that isn’t ability, its staying power and the ability to change your perceptions and paradigms as new information comes available.
 
The losers are those who wanted to 'get rich quick' but approached the market and within 6 months put on a pair of blinkers so they couldn’t see the obvious - a kind of "this is the way i see it and thats that" scenario - refusing to assimilate new information that changes that perception.
 
I’m happy to tell you that the reason i started trading was because of the 'get rich quick' mindset.
Just that now i see it as 'get rich slow'
 
If you’re thinking about giving up i have one piece of advice for you ....
Ask yourself the question "how many years would you go to college if you knew for a fact that there was a million dollars a year job at the end of it?
 
Take care and good trading to you all.
 
Don't know the author but this is timeless trading wisdom.

The 5 Steps to becoming a trader
 
Step One: Unconscious Incompetence.
 
This is the first step you take when starting to look into trading.
 
You know that its a good way of making money because you've heard so many things about it and heard of so many millionaires.
 
Unfortunately, just like when you first desire to drive a car
you think it will be easy - after all, how hard can it be?
 
Price either moves up or down - what's the big secret to that then – let’s get cracking!
 
Unfortunately, just as when you first take your place in front of a steering wheel you find very quickly that you haven't got the first clue about what you're trying to do.
 
You take lots of trades and lots of risks. When you enter a trade it turns against you so you reverse and it turns again and again, and again.
 
You may have initial success, and thats even worse - cos it tells your brain that this really is simple and you start to risk more money.
 
You try to turn around your losses by doubling up every time you trade.
 
Sometimes you'll get away with it but more often than not you will come away scathed and bruised
 
You are totally oblivious to your incompetence at trading.
 
This step can last for a week or two of trading but the market is usually swift and you move on the next stage.
 
Step Two - Conscious Incompetence
 
Step two is where you realize that there is more work involved in trading and that you might actually have to work a few things out.
 
You consciously realize that you are an incompetent trader - you don't have the skills or the insight to turn a regular profit.
 
You now set about buying systems and e-books galore, read websites based everywhere from USA to the Ukraine and begin your search for the holy grail.
 
During this time you will be a system nomad - you will flick from method to method day by day and week by week never sticking with one long enough to actually see if it does
work.
 
Every time you come upon a new indicator you'll be ecstatic that this is the
one that will make all the difference.
 
You will test out automated systems on Metatrader, you'll play with moving
averages, Fibonacci lines, support & resistance, Pivots, Fractals, Divergence, DMI, ADX, and a hundred other things all in the vein hope that your 'magic system' starts today.
 
You'll be a top and bottom picker, trying to find the exact point of reversal
with your indicators and you'll find yourself chasing losing trades and even adding to them because you are so sure you are right.
 
You'll go into the live chat room and see other traders making pips and you want to know why it's not you - you'll ask a million questions, some of which are so dumb that looking back you feel a bit silly.
 
You'll then reach the point where you think all the ones who are calling pips after pips are liars - they can’t be making that amount because you've studied and you don't make that, you know as much as they do and
they must be lying.
 
But they're in there day after day and their account just grows whilst yours falls.
 
You will be like a teenager - the traders that make money will freely give you advice but you're stubborn and think that you know best - you take no notice and overtrade your account even though everyone says you are mad to - but you know better.
 
You'll consider following the calls that others make but even then it wont work so you try paying for signals from someone else - they don't work for you either.
 
You might even approach a 'guru' like Rob Booker or someone on a chat board who promises to make you into a trader (usually for a fee of course).
 
Whether the guru is good or not you won’t win because there is no replacement for screen time and you still think you know best.
 
This step can last ages and ages - in fact in reality talking with other traders as well as personal experience confirms that it can easily last well over a year and more nearer 3 years.
 
This is also the step when you are most likely to give up through
sheer frustration.
 
Around 60% of new traders die out in the first 3 months - they give up and this is good - think about it - if trading was easy we would all be millionaires. another 20% keep going for a year and then in desperation take risks guaranteed to blow their account which of course it does.
 
What may suprise you is that of the remaining 20% all of them will last around 3 years - and they will think they are safe in the water - but even at 3 years only a further 5-10% will continue and go on to actually make money consistently.
 
By the way - they are real figures, not just some I’ve picked out of my head - so when you get to 3 years in the game don’t think its plain sailing from there.
 
I’ve had many people argue with me about these timescales - funny enough none of them have been trading for more that 3 years - if you think you know better then ask on a board for someone who's been trading 5 years and ask them how long it takes to become fully 100% proficient.
 
Sure i guess there will be exceptions to the rule - but i havent met any yet.
 
Eventually you do begin to come out of this phase.
 
You've probably committed more time and money than you ever thought you would, lost 2 or 3 loaded accounts and all but given up maybe 3 or 4 times but now its in your blood
 
One day – In a split second moment you will enter stage 3.
 
Step 3 - The Eureka Moment
 
Towards the end of stage two you begin to realize that it's not the system that is making the difference.
 
You realize that its actually possible to make money with a simple moving average and nothing else IF you can get your head and money management right
 
You start to read books on the psychology of trading and identify with the characters portrayed in those books and finally comes the eureka moment.
 
This eureka moment causes a new connection to be made in your brain.
 
You suddenly realise that neither you, nor anyone else can accurately predict what the market will do in the next ten seconds, never mind the next 20 mins.
 
Because of this revelation you stop taking any notice of what anyone thinks - what this news item will do, and what that event will do to the markets.
 
You become an individual with your own method of trading
 
You start to work just one system that you mould to your own way of trading, you're starting to get happy and you define your risk threshold.
 
You start to take every trade that your 'edge' shows has a good probability of
winning with.
 
When the trade turns bad you don't get angry or even because you
know in your head that as you couldn't possibly predict it it isn't your fault - as soon as you realise that the trade is bad you close it .
 
The next trade or the one after it or the one after that will have higher odds of success because you know your system works.
 
You stop looking at trading results from a trade-to-trade perspective and start to look at weekly figures knowing that one bad trade does not a poor system make.
 
You have realised in an instant that the trading game is about one thing -
consistency of your 'edge' and your discipline to take all the trades no matter what as you know the probabilities stack in your favour.
 
You learn about proper money management and leverage - risk of account etc etc - and this time it actually soaks in and you think back to those who advised the same thing a year ago with a smile.
 
You weren't ready then, but you are now.
 
The eureka moment came the moment that you truly accepted that you cannot predict the market.

Hey folks,

IMPORTANT: Don't forget to say thanks

This indicator was made by me, based on the indicator a of SEFC bro's RSI impulse indicator.
It is available in a passworded rar file on the forum, but we don't have the password, so I made this nice indicator based of available other indicators. It is actually a ZIGZAG indi on MA of RSI.
Cycles can be seen more easily.

Hi Neil,
 
It would be handy for others if you posted your test results or opinions on the systems you're testing - start a thread called "Neil's test lab" or something like that :)
 
From what I've seen of manual systems they fall into 3 main camps:
 
1) Trending System
2) Ranging System
3) Breakout System
 
All have their faults - trending systems don't work in ranging markets and vice-versa and breakout systems are prone to trading false breakouts.
 
Each system type can be subdivided into:
 
1) Conventional (typically MA's for trending systems, BB's/Stochs/CCI etc. for ranging systems)
2) Novel (stacks of fancy indicators which you can't understand how they work unless you analyse the code).
 
"100 Pips before breakfast" is a good sensible ebook which explains how to trade trending markets effectively.
 
"Easy FTSE Trading System" is another good ebook which explains how to trade ranging markets effectively. It's geared for the UK spread betting markets and for the FTSE, however applies equally to MT4 trading and Forex.
 
"1 Minute Daily" (currently on the blacklist I think) is probably the best "set and forget" Asian range breakout system I've seen - though you have to adapt a long term view with these sort of "set and forget" systems. "Forex Child's Play" works well for more active traders.
 
There's no one system which fits all conditions - otherwise, that would essentially be a "holy grail". The route to becoming a consistently profitable trader is taking bits of each system which you personally are most comfortable using and then you need to put in lots of screen time so that you intuitively know the best time to bring out a particular tool from your trading toolkit.
 
For example, I don't like using MA crosses to trigger entries into trends - I've had many bad experiences with them in ranging markets, so can never trust them. Instead, I look at candle patterns in larger timeframes, where price is obviously moving in the timeframe I'm trading and take note of HH or LL breaks and where support and resistance levels are. If price is trending up and breaks a recent swing high but there is strong resistance a few pips away - then now's not the time to go long, wait for a bounce off resistance and then enter when price starts moving up again. You can either take a few pips with the trend back to resistance or hang on for a larger move, given your better entry point.
 
When the market is obviously ranging - i.e. you look at your chart and the bollinger bands are quite wide and essentially horizontal, then that's the time to look at trading BB extremes. If these extremes coincide with S/R levels then all the better - you have a higher probability trade which can be taken back to the middle band and often from one extreme band to the other.
 
You're right about trading style, and that's what makes it so tricky for us to just trade someone else's system as successfully as they do. Trading shouldn't be a chore or we're not in the right frame of mind - so if systems/methods are too complex, too "black box", too unpredictable etc. for you personally then don't attempt to use them.
 
Finding our "niche" in trading doesn't mean finding a system which works perfectly for us - I think we need a learn a range of methods which can be brought out at the right times depending on market conditions.
 
Trying to trade 1-2-3 setups will pay big dividends in trending markets but will kill you in ranging markets. Taking every MA cross will give you some huge winners (if you can avoid taking winners too early) and then you'll hit a period of possibly weeks where every trade will fail. Knowing how to trade the market on your chart right now I believe is something which can only come naturally after you've put in the requisite "screen time".
 
All I've mentioned so far has been concerned with entries - which despite what some others may say are important. A good entry can give you easy pips and a bad entry can get you stopped out. Money management is important, however a good entry with good money management is still better then a bad entry with good money management.

I am testing the Black Dog Mini Trend Finder system live this next week. It is the system I think that the "Quik Fix" copied/stole from, although I prefer Mini Trend Finder. Mini Trend Finder makes sense to me and seems like it will be quite profitable. Has already been shared on this forum. If it works out as planned, it may well become my primary day trading system. Feedback from anyone who has tried the Mini Trend Finder would be appreciated.

So very true deadsoul, in fact I suspect that by the way Red Bull has been bumping every thread going that he's just collecting systems and not really using any of them lol.
 
I've done the same I admit it. My hard disk is stacked with loads of systems (mostly rubbish ones). It takes some effort and discipline to take a system and trade it by itself for a week or two using the system rules only.
 
I think the main problem is that to test a system properly, you need to be trading actively in the main sessions. Most folks here, judging by the way everyone is infatuated with EAs, have a "day job" and are not trading full-time, so are unable to test these systems properly. Likewise any traders who are trading full-time are unlikely to want to give up 1 or 2 weeks of income earning potential to test a system in demo, which will probably turn out to be a disappointment.

I've not got the system, though it's good to see that the guy selling it is not afraid to reveal some of its secrets:

sgsgsg,
 
I agree with everything you said except the above point, you have given very sound advice to our new friend Lenox.
 
I don't know where you are from, where you currently live, your age or your background, it really doesn't matter... I put this to you with no malice but in a friendly manner. A man that openly admits that he has cried like a baby / child, is more of a man than one who doesn't. If you have ever lost a child, a brother or a sister... you won't care who knows that you cried. The feeling of desolation inside you, far outweighs any egotistical misnomer that men should never cry...
 
I have cried, I have cried loud and long... I still do! The pain never goes away, it just subsides long enough to get on with your life!
 
Kindest regards
RM
