Re: DRAGONPIPS

 

Is this new version the Xtreme Edition?

 

I had a look at the code, and the init() function in particular makes me laugh:

int init() {
  Alert("Connecting to server... please wait");
  Sleep(10000);
  Alert("Connected!");
  return (0);
}

:))

 

I would have used IsConnected(), and/or do a loop with a check for AccountCompany() in it.

A 10 second pause does not automatically mean that the terminal is connected!

 

The EA doesn't even use UTC time, with UTC offset calculation.

Re: DRAGONPIPS

 

Can someone explain why the version posted as v4 here is written v042009 which means "April 2009" when the true v4 is supposed to be dated v081509 which is "August 15, 2009"...

 

I think there is a mistake and that it's not the last v4 but one of the first version instead...

 

Can someone confirm this?

v042009 could mean version4 2009. The only differences I can see were the TP/SL (6/32) instead of 5/25 as coded in v3

To drbaz: very nice statement, is it real account? Do u use max trades = 5 ? what vps that u use?

Do SIG = -LiteForex- broker ? I rather doubt that broker... coz they only regulated in small country. How long have you invest at this broker? Thanks

 

 

The statement is from Liteforex Demo account, not using vps just run from my pc overnite when I'm free. Setting Maxtrades =5, lot=0.01, maxlots=0.01, OpenHour=0, CloseHour=2. I'm on demo only not invest yet. Thanks.

Re: DRAGONPIPS

 

I just started reading through all this thread, it seems most people are using this with eurchf instead of the original EU and GU. I did extensive backtesting on EU and no matter what I do it did not give me a good result on EU for 2009, while the years before that the results are superb (2008 not that good aswell).

 

This makes me believe that this EA is curvefitted or something has changed since 2008. Maybe we could use some other filters to get this performing well in 2008-2009. Because I think it has the potential. I will start testing V4 now to see how would that go.

Re: DRAGONPIPS

 

lots has changed since 2008. havent you seen the news over the past couple of years?

 

especially given the huge amount of retail trading robots which want to trade asia.

Have run V4 for the last 1.5 hours, no trades strange, EURCHF not moving much so that might just be it

 

V3 I had several trades daily between 22-24

 

check your spread setting too.

 

i tested it this morning on my broker's spreads. goes ok for some extended periods, but has the danger of giving a lot back quickly.

Re: DRAGONPIPS

 

I had nothing, so I loaded V3 back on and within 5 minutes took 2 trades that were both profitable

 

I might stay with V3 for live and put V4 on a demo account for a few days until I am comfortable with its performance

 

I am anxiously waiting for Mecman2 to hopefully post the Extreme Edition soon as these will be a interesting version to test

Re: DRAGONPIPS

 

chankl78, did you get anything on forex.com? I watched the PA, and it barely moved at all. Spreads were ok, but there was barely any movement whatsoever.

I took a risk after having backtested DP on EU and it took 4 trades, 3 in profit and one breakeven. The breakeven one was closed manually by me because I was just nervous, but if I would have left it alone, it would have closed in profit easily.

I will keep running it at risk 5 on EU to see how it goes.
