Hi Steve, just wanted to make sure if this was supposed to happen or not (with the latest fix that aims at handling the box trade left in drawdown after closure of its twin trade). In the attached pictures: 1. NZDUSD and GBPJPY box BUY and SELL open ...

Sixths trading - an EA by macman, Bob and Steve mk 2

Hello Steve, I hope I'm not asking something too obvious here, but just want to make sure, given that most of us are trading TB with some manual intervention as required by the numerous bugs its current form presents: - When you say that TB "misses" ...

Sixths trading - an EA by macman, Bob and Steve mk 2

Yes, that's exactly my point. I think the bot has great potential though, I encourage everyone to keep testing the bot as it is ATM in smaller TF's and with different JS, BE settings, etc. Maybe there could be a way to adjust these parameters ...

Reversi: a dynamically calculated x-candle reversal EA by Steve Hopwood

more testing required! — My point here is that we're discarding ideas without giving them enough time to for them to be tested, the original reversi bot that steve coded with some tweaking could be something like "The beast in steroids" as I ...

Reversi: a dynamically calculated x-candle reversal EA by Steve Hopwood

Recovery — I'm experiencing the same... Besides the minimum distance between trades, how about if the trigger for recovery is the same as the original entry? (a same-direction candle run that signals an inminent reverse)

Reversi: a dynamically calculated x-candle reversal EA by Steve Hopwood

Manual Intervention — In this specific case what would have to be the manual procedure in order not to mess up the bot's behavior? Would we have to shut down the bot first? Just close the buy trade for a profit at this moment? or set a TP line ...

This would require that the code integrates both its original trading style and the one proposed by you, and chooses among them based on the RSI reading. Could you be able to code something like this?

Caillou: another always-in auto-trader by SteveHopwood

RSI? — If I'm understanding gspes mod rules correctly, It makes sense that the regular version is profitable in trending markets and this gspe modified version in ranging markets. How about implementing some sort of "ranging" or "trending" ...

Caillou: another always-in auto-trader by SteveHopwood

Questions — Hi Caillou What was your lot size for the 3-day test mentioned in post 1? Wouldn't this trading style benefit from a little higher TF (say M5). Doesn't the spread in M1 add up to annoying levels in a ranging market? Also, one ...

Caillou: another always-in auto-trader by SteveHopwood
