MtCoderz Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 This info is not mine, i want to pass here for every one to read to prevent putting your hard money on the scammer like Mr. who made cashdetective.. Rules to buying an Expert Advisor For people who are considering in purchasing Expert Advisors, please take the time to review some of these rules that I believe will keep you from burning a hole in your pocket. A. Always WHOIS the website 1. How old is the website? 2. Who created the website? Is it a person or a company? B. Review the EA's trade results/summary: 1. Do the results look legitimate? 2. Do they only provide back testing results? Do they provide forward testing results? 3. What is the maximum drawdown? 4. How big are the lot sizes? 5. What kind of money management does it use? -. Do you have enough money to run the EA on an account? 6. Which broker did they use? -. Different brokers sometimes give drastically different results C. What type of EA are they selling? 1. Grid EA A Grid Expert Advisor is an EA that creates multiple levels of trade orders at specific prices. Grid EA's come in two categories. A Grid EA that is meant to be trend following and a Grid EA that is meant to be traded in ranging periods. An example is an EA that is programmed to place 10 limit orders above and below the current price, each limit order being placed 10 pips away from each order. Some Grid EA's are also considered a Cost Averaging EA. 2. Martingale EA A Martingale EA generally refers to an Expert Advisor that uses a particular style of Money Management. This money management system used each loss that occurs during a trade the next trade size or volume size will be double the prior trade. Once a trade wins, the martingale system starts from the beginning. Example * Lot Size = 1; Outcome: Loss * Lot Size = 2; Outcome: Loss * Lot Size = 4; Outcome: Loss * Lot Size = 8; Outcome: Win * Lot Size = 1; Outcome: Loss * Lot Size = 2; Outcome: Loss And so on.. 3. Cost Averaging EA Cost Averaging The money management technique of buying a fixed dollar amount of a particular investment on a regular schedule, regardless of the price. More volume are purchased when prices are low, and fewer shares are bought when prices are high. 4. Counter Trend Counter Trend strategy generally executes trades on retracements or a corrective waves, these are two terms to refer to movements that are against the major trend. While using a Counter Trend system, the author or system trader is trying to achieve one of two things: 1. Predicting market pivot points / swing points 2. Taking profits off of retracements or corrective waves Many people do not like using Counter Trend strategies as they tend to be more risky than Trend Following strategies. 5. Trend Following Trend Following strategies are generally trading systems that are not meant to predict the end or beginning of a trend. Their role is to execute trades in the direction of an already established trend. 6. Ranging Ranging refers to a type price action behavior. When a market ranges, it tends to sway within a certain price range for a period of time. Some people may also know this as a flat channel, or a rectangle pattern. 7. Breakout A Breakout strategy refers to a strategy that trades on price action breaking a particular level of Support or Resistance. 8. Neural Network http://articles*mql4*com/461 9. Arbitrage EA Attempting to profit by exploiting price differences of identical or similar financial instruments, on different markets or in different forms. The idea version risk-less arbitrage. D. Refund Policy A. Do they have one? How long can you run a test trial? 1. One week is too short and provides inconclusive results 2. No refund? Ask why E. Purchasing Policy 1. Is it subscription based? 2. Is it one time purchase and all upgrades inclusive? Although these guidelines are tedious, they are meant to save you hundreds of dollars if you take the time to address each point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although these guidelines are tedious, they are meant to save you hundreds of dollars if you take the time to address each point. Good Advice, I purchased four commercial EA's when I was new and none are good. They are Fapturbo, Magic, Universal and Forex Crusher. The problem is not so much the money you spend on them as the time you waste and potential lost finding out they are no good. I ended up spending two months learning the basics of coding. I found a free EA that was pretty good and I modified it with a bunch of rules to make it trade the way I wanted. Live, it earned me, 192,341 in two months for real. It is well worth the time to learn the basics of coding yourself. (it took me about 2 months to learn what I have.) Right now, I am modifying another really good EA called MasterMind3, I found it here originally disguised under the name of Fred. It is the championship edition.. I believe this will be another 200,000 a quarter EA when I am finished. You can download Mastermind3 here, hxxp://codebase.mql4.com/download/11304 Don't blow your money on commercial EA's and don't trust any of those people selling them.

Mate, EA code improvement and experience is really the thing hard to get. That's why can you advise what you normally check in EA to be "pre-approved" for interim tests? For instance, if it works good in certain hours and has no timefilter, then adding timefilter is the really first thing we should do for EA improvement. Another example, if we see in visual mode EA enters when EMAs goes opposite direction, then insertion of simple EMA filter would decrease number of trades and only let leave trades going same direction as EMA. Same with RSI - if we see that certain "bad" trades can be easily addressed by using RSI filter, we do it. Again, if we see on visual tester that soon after entry it gets fulfilled with 5-7 pips, and EA has no trailing, we do insert trailing and see if performance improves. And many others. Like as per trading logic EA should open trade after signal received on previous candle and not on current one, but its code is not programmed to accomodate this logic, then we change it and see if we get improvement. So perhaps we could start a separate thread for exchanging experience in these matters as I'm really keen to share and learn from our active members, like Ryaz, William, Don, Birt, perhaps yourself and many others as I' ve started to look inside EAs just three-four monthes ago as I was not happy with existing EA performance and experienced a need to change it as I thought would be better. Please share your thoughts on EAs improvements. I trust it will benefit all of us even those who don't have even basic skills in coding, but they will know for the future that certain problem was discussed and solution as proposed was this and this, so next time on next new EA review that individual would propose exact modification of EA based on experience earned from this thread. :shand: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asgard2 Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 Re: Before buying an Expert Advisor Mate, EA code improvement and experience is really the thing hard to get. That's why can you advise what you normally check in EA to be "pre-approved" for interim tests? Sure, it is hard to find an EA without BS hype. I really look for credentials in the first place. Like the EAs that have done well in the trading championships. I set the takeprofit high at 160 pips, the trailing stop at 35 and the step at 4. No stoploss because I want to see it trade, not loose. Then I run them through some quick back tests and look for number of trades mostly. If the number of trades is high and the graph has a steady upward line, at this point I careless about profit. BTW, most do no pass the initial back-test. I do not freak out if the EA stops out. I just go to the date and run a visual and watch it trade. If I think is is a problem that can be fixed without compromising the logic.. I will muck around with it for a couple of hours. If not, it goes in the nogood folder (most of them live there) If the number of trades is good, a bunch of "don't trade if this" or "don't trade if that", rules will take out, roughly a 3rd of the trades Another example, if we see in visual mode EA enters when EMAs goes opposite direction, then insertion of simple EMA filter would decrease number of trades and only let leave trades going same direction as EMA. Same with RSI - if we see that certain "bad" trades can be easily addressed by using RSI filter, we do it. Yes, that is exactly right These are some of the rules I added to my best EA 1) trade hour 2) if trade is in profit at trade hour close and no sl, set intrim trailing at break even. 3) if trade is not in profit at trade hour close, then close trade at first break even. 4) Don't use limit or instant execution orders 5) delete unused buystop every 14 minutes 6) if 5 is true, then don't reorder for 45 minutes. 7) Minimum Time between real orders 30 minutes 8) If MA crossing is higher than trailing stop, then take profit now. 9) Dynamic stop loss.. works on speed indicator and iAC 10) If buystop is taken out buy a spike close order now. 11) Divide buy and sell. inc stop order level, take profit, trailing stops, trailing steps, and indicator parameters. 12) Don't trade the NFP 13) Don't buy on 4hr downtrend, don't sell on 4hr uptrend. 14) If trade is one hour old and has reached 14 pips twice and is now 14 pips down, close at next break even and sleep 16 minutes. So here is how it works.. It sets a buystop at 148 or 14 points for 4Digit. The logic is pretty good but if it is wrong, it deletes the buystop before the next candle and follows the market down with each reset and most times gets pretty close to the low for the day before it buys. It is pretty nice to watch. It closes the order at tradehour because there will likely be a better opportunity next trade hour and it decreases risk of the market going south. Again, if we see on visual tester that soon after entry it gets fulfilled with 5-7 pips, and EA has no trailing, we do insert trailing and see if performance improves. LOL.. I think we are on the same system here. So perhaps we could start a separate thread for exchanging experience in these matters as I'm really keen to share and learn from our active members, like Ryaz, William, Don, Birt, perhaps yourself and many others as I' ve started to look inside EAs just three-four monthes ago as I was not happy with existing EA performance and experienced a need to change it as I thought would be better.

I started with 5000 and I had 82 trades, my drawdown was 21,000 at one point. I was already 90,000 up, so I just shut my eyes and trusted the thing. Sometimes I am my own worst enemy but that time I was good. Best thing I can do for you guys is take a video of a visual and post it so you can see how it trades. I will try and get that done in the next couple of days. Its a shame they have such limitations on the files that can be attached here.. makes posting stuff too hard to be convenient.

Any other stats. It's always nice to hear success stories. Whilst I'm making money, I'm no where near that rate! No losses.. I don't like losses.. 82 wins from 82 trades. A good EA should rarely loose...really rare. Good logic, that is one thing.. the trading style is the other half. Better not to get into a trade that is bad (that is why no limit orders).. if it happens, the EA should be able to get out of the trade at the first opportunity without a loss or thats my idea :) Mind you.. I only put 5000 in each account, that is all I risk of my own money. When I double my money, I withdraw my original investment and let it run. I only trade one EA on one pair for each account. I don't freak out when the trade is running backwards for a while and I have no hard stop loss, only dynamic, (works on reversed logic and a couple of rules). That will not suit some people and I am sure I will be ragged for it, but (without bragging) I am making money. I am thinking a dynamic trade hour as well might be beneficial. I think there is still plenty of improvement I can do. I am working on dojie IDs as well.. I am pretty sure I can put candles to work better than they are now and tweak my current logic.

However, I have a question: at 4:43 in the vid, a long position is entered, then the market goes against you for a while, eventually retracing and letting your position go into profits after many hours. How would your EA deal with it if the market didn't retrace? Would it close the position at some kind of expiration time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would your EA deal with it if the market didn't retrace? Would it close the position at some kind of expiration time? No, the stoploss works on reverse logic + percentage. So, the buy logic is reversed, add percentage of drawdown and eval equity @30 %. if a buy logic reversal never happens the stoploss will never kick in.. all that is left at that point is the equity protection at $5000. Even the equity protection is dynamic.. doesn't kick in until after the balance equals 10,000. But hey.. this was never meant to be a safe business.. just profitable.:) Seriously, I want reliability and consistency, the safety factor I don't leave to the EA.. it is supposed to be fearless.. I am the chicken. I do trust the logic will reverse if it needs to. The doubles my initial 5000 balance in two days.. so if I take it out, not much can be lost.

⭐ birt Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 Re: Before buying an Expert Advisor No, no, I get it - it's a perfectly valid exit strategy, no need for a stoploss assuming your EA is connected all the time and it has a plan for this scenario. I was just wondering how it's handled because such things can definitely happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I know which EA it was based on but I like what you've done to it. Its no secret, the EAs this is based on (or the logic anyway) is Gepard and Greezly. I used the Greezly base code and imported the Gepard logic as an addition to get more trades. Then I simply added the rules I listed on the front page. It is still a work in progress.. I expect I can double the output when I find some sell logic to import. Neither Gepard or Greezly has sound sell logic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, Greezly is the one I thought it was. :D I didn't know about the Gepard factor although I've got that in my library too (an educated version not the real source). Greezly did have a rather high SL and some of the factors were biased. I remember when I first looked at it I thought it was a bit risky but it looks like you've tamed it a bit. I'll have another look at it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
