Ronald Raygun replied Jul 1, 2010Use the history center. Import the 1M data into the history center, then use the period converter to convert the 1M time into whatever you need. Then go back into the history center and export the timeframes you converted.

Ronald Raygun replied Jul 1, 2010How many 1M bars in 10 years? Should be around 3-4million I think. MT4 is capable of handling that.

Ronald Raygun replied Jun 30, 2010The trend that day was down until the FOMC announcement. So I'll ask again. How would the system have fared? A lot of traders I know who were hedging and using martingale went bankrupt that day. They simply couldn't take the hit.

Ronald Raygun replied Jun 28, 2010MT5 backtester still has a few flaws (0 spread, wrong executions, and unusual swaps). I've written a self-optimizing EA. The problem is it takes me ~120 days to test each and every permutation. I'm working on a distribution method so I can ...

Ronald Raygun replied Jun 28, 2010Cost is almost moot for me. I have no qualms dropping 50k to build a bleeding edge computer for my trading--I can write it off as a business expense--the only requirement I have is that it works reliably and pays for itself within a year. Adal, I ...

Ronald Raygun replied Jun 27, 2010Based off of your EA's backtest in the FRWC, I suspect your MM method is something more like averaging down, where the additional trade is significantly larger than the initial losing trade.

Ronald Raygun replied Jun 26, 2010It will always be a work in progress. The main thing about discretionary trading is there are several exceptions to various rules (don't trade during news, look at local s/r, detect false entries, etc, etc, etc). My most cutting edge research has ...

Ronald Raygun replied Jun 23, 2010PurplePatch is right. ex4 can easily be decompiled unfortunately, so there's not much you can really do. When you get a chance, PM me your skype name, I have a few questions for you which are probably better off private.

Ronald Raygun replied Jun 23, 2010Do you really have to modify the trade every tick? Another option is to save the stoploss/takeprofit for a given trade in a static variable/array.
