I remember 100pips answered this question on a previous page. The trend is determined fully on the D1 TF, using the MACD. Either the bars should be red/blue, or the blue line should be up/down. Either one is fine. This is the trend. EMA are not used ...

Will do. Also, one other thing. I noticed that the pairs that fail are usually within consolidation zones. I think it would be a good idea to avoid those, as this is a trend strategy, hmm? Also, just by reading your post, I noticed I have been ...

100pips, I am pretty much breaking even with this method. I'll have 8-9 positions at any time. Some will hit TP, and others will hit SL, and I'll be pretty much breaking even each time. And I've made a lot of trades over the past 2 days. Any ...

I have one question for you 100pips. I know that you said I should focus on just the Daily and 1H MACD and W% analysis for the time being, but at which point should I start introducing PASR? Or should I do that immediately in relation to those two? ...

All good. It is early days, and I need to build confidence with the EA. In fact, I'm already having good success with the Dr Alexander system posted in your other thread. It is fantastic. Thank you my friend.

Look, both the EA and this system are VERY alike, as I said. In fact, the file name for the EA is the SAME as this trading method. And not to mention, the author created both threads. Can you blame me? Seriously...

Both the EA and this system are the same in many aspects and use the same principles. So instead of helping me improve, you decide to degrade me? Speaks volumes about you. Thanks.

What the hell is wrong with the market at the moment? Everything is going in the complete opposite direction - and quickly.

I think it might be better to manually place trades. This EA isn't doing very well at all. Or at least, avoid using the EA with any of the majors. It seems USD pairs don't have a good success rate with the EA ?

Have 9 positions open, most of which are losing quite badly. Hopefully these turn around.

I applied the EA after the loss. The trades were placed manually. And I definitely did set a correct SL/TP. I think the EA must have closed the trades on its own? I'm as confused as you, lol.

It's no big deal. I've had many other winning trades today. Feedback on anything I can improve on is appreciate, though.

My EA seems to be taking profits before TP level has been reached. Is this part of the EA, when a trend reversal is detected, or a bug? thanks.

The EA is giving me alerts for short/long, but its not entering any trades. Any ideas? EDIT: Just fixed it! Thanks.
