traderone replied Sep 7, 2006I too began Firebird v1.0a this week (Tuesday). I am fortunate I think in that I am only trading EURUSD and USDCHF on somewhat more conservative settings than some. Pipstep 16 rather than 12 and percent.1. I am now in negative, but since I traded ...

traderone replied Sep 6, 2006H02 has a "safe zone" area determined by Bulls and Bears. Default is 40. It won't trade if the price is out of the "safe zone". Might help on trending markets. Hey there fingotrader and spartan and some others..... the first week I demoed FB 63G I ...

traderone replied Sep 5, 2006Thanks for your report 1Trader2. I too had good success with FB H02, even with somewhat changed settings similar to Mono's IND settings. However, this morning I still went live with FB v1.0a with slightly modified settings on two pair only. Still, ...

traderone replied Sep 5, 2006Go to Accrete's resource page. There is a good document there. It is good to know how the EA that you risk your hard earned money on actually works.

traderone replied Sep 3, 2006Sorry. Don't know anything (good) about North Finance. I'm sure if you ask them they will let you know.

traderone replied Sep 3, 2006It depends on your broker. It would be OK on IBFX, but not FXDD for instance.

traderone replied Sep 3, 2006My experience running several Firebird versions thru NFP and all other news events has been just fine. It is the big, steady trend one direction that worries me.

traderone replied Sep 3, 2006I have let all my demos run all week and never stop them until Friday night. Turn off the machine. Start them back up on Sunday PM before the market opens and off they go. I don't shut down any trades. I have not encountered any ill affects on ...

traderone replied Sep 3, 2006Going on two pair only (EURUSD and USDCHF) on a $4000 account and .1 lots each. Settings will be 25 TP, 15 pipstep, 250 SL for both pair. FB 63G on M1 charts. Actually I was considering running H02 with the same settings and a safe area of 40, but I ...

traderone replied Sep 3, 2006Yes, I have been demoing b2 but it has not made nearly the PIPS that the other versions have. Maybe it is safer though? I'm afraid that I feel the big September trends coming on. Haven't had one during the summer testing of FB. Should coincide ...

traderone replied Sep 3, 2006Cabletrader.... Can you simply repost the 1.0b original with a short explanation? Thanks.

traderone replied Sep 2, 2006I may be cracking up, but isn't there more than one version of 1.0b ? More than one version of the hedged version? I have been running the "b" version. Thanks for any advice.

traderone replied Sep 1, 2006Hi ART. Glad to see which pairs you like. In all of my tests (11 platforms)over the last month to 5 weeks, the pairs which resoundingly score well are the USDCHF and EURUSD. I steer clear of GBPUSD because twice a year it goes on a 1500 pip march in ...

traderone replied Sep 1, 2006SPA, version 1.0c automatically changes the TP, and PIPSTEP in accordance with each different pair. For instance, it has been using 25 TP for USDCHF and 16 TP for AUDUSD. If you want the TP and Pipstep to be set only by you then perhaps use Version ...

traderone replied Sep 1, 2006Just thinking out loud here..... Why don't we just pick the best performing two pair and double the lots? I don't see much reason to mess with stuff like EURJPY or EURCHF. I know next Tuesday I will go live with my favorite two pair only on 1.0c. ...

traderone replied Aug 31, 2006I've had as many as 41 open trades on one FB account. I think they are trying to control some EAs that open tons of trades all at the same time. There are several floating around over on the yahoo metatrader group. (Farhad Crab etc.) Also there may ...

traderone replied Aug 31, 2006I am going to let all 8 of my FB demos (various flavors) rip right thru the NFP as usual. That is what demos are for I think. By the way, my LIVE account on Firebird will be off until nest Tuesday!

traderone replied Aug 31, 2006Just as a little addendum. I think that most of my friends and distant relatives think that what I do (trading) is not real. They don't think that anything that I could do from my home-office could be serious or anything more than a hobby. I will ...

traderone replied Aug 31, 2006I am not sure I understand your question. I do always enjoy reading your posts here on ForexFactory. I would be delighted to let this EA make me 15-25% per month. Is it "real" trading? Hmmmm. It runs on a live FXDD and IBFX account. They think it is ...

traderone replied Aug 30, 2006I too would like to ask the EXACT settings for such pairs as AUDUSD or USDCAD for the TS version of Firebird G. I think that the TP of 50, TS of 30 and Pipstep of 30 make some sense for USDCHF and EURUSD, but wonder if some different settings would ...
