For example, If you please interpret the values used in default settings, it would be of great help! Many thanks! Hi, The time filter is : Is since entry passed x minutes, the take profit will be y, example : TC_1L_Start_Time=15 ----------- passed 15 minutes from entry trade TC_1L_Profit=3 ------------------our target now Volatility filter is the difference between previous bars and current bar, if the difference is higher then x value, no trade, because market is volatile. regards, iliotest and smurf43 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metin Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 invalid time It shows : "invalid time" during GMT 21-22 which are the actual trading times, and I suppose that's why it doesn't trade.

metin Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 The EA only trades from 21:00 to 21:45 GMT. What time was the message "invalid time" issued, and what is your GMT setting? My GMT setting is (0), I've been using a forex.com demo account (4 digit). This message showing the GMT time on the screen seems to appear as "invalid time" as soon as the trading time gets in. Broker time remains o.k. Regards, Metin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

expat1967 Posted November 5, 2010 Report Share Posted November 5, 2010 Oops, looking at my trades for this week. The EA took a trade during the London session well in profit ;) Lets check this timing issue/invalid trade time out. The scalper itself works pretty good so far.

Znake Posted November 6, 2010 Report Share Posted November 6, 2010 I made a backtest of the year 2010 for EURGBP and USDCAD, both include some big loosers. How do your backtests looks like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My backtest was looking not that bad, yeap some loosers over major news events as for many scalpers. Trying a newsfilter though, but have to fix this timing issue as well.

Znake Posted November 6, 2010 Report Share Posted November 6, 2010 News filter is an good idea. How many trades do you have in your backtest in the year 2010? What broker do you use? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Oh, I did not save the backtest. Was a while ago. Number of trades was average if I recall it well. I am using Tickdata for detailed backtesting on either FXCM or fixed Spreads on a medium level. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The EA took a trade during the London session well in profit ;) no one trade on eurgbp for the last 2 weeks I removed expert, I prefer trades every day, not 2-3 times per month for 2-3 pips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sadi9 Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 I would like to know, it is ea a commercial ea or a free shared ea? I've back tested it and it had some good results , only on eurgbp. The reason i'm asking is I do not trade commercial eas, I think they are all crap.

sadi9 Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 Use it on the 5 minute time frame, turn the stoploss to 50, and make sure it trades from 21 gmt to 22gmt. GMT shift i use is 2 with Fxopen. Happy Trading !! huuu 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guymelloul Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 hey there. this ea shows some great potential because it has many parameters to optimize. i m optimizing and sorting the resaults by profit factor which is extremly high. my trading hours are 21-24 gmt+1. the great thing about this ea it that it has extremly low DD. i will optimize and test more pairs than jusy EURGBP and USDCAD, i think it will do great. will publish here my resaults of forward testing by the end of decmber.
