That can happen. My settings are the default settings, except I chaged the times so it would trade all the time. On one of the trades where you got a loss of 50 PIPS, I barely eeked out 20 pips, before it went back up. If that was on a live account, ...

Dan, Here's my FXDD Demo account. Only one trade on the EUR/USD yesterday that got one PIP. Ignore the rest of the trades. Trying this on other pairs. Does NOT work on AUD/USD very well at all.

drcubi, we all need to start somewhere. You copied the EA into "indicators", and it needs to be in the "experts" folder. EA stands for Expert Advisor & an EA is nothing more than a computer program containing mathematical equations that do X when Y ...

Thanks, FXWarrior. Siobi trades live on IBFX, and I think a few others do. I can't get trades either live or demo. Possibly someone who trades live on IBFX can give me the EA version and whether or not they changed any settings to get it to trade on ...

How about a separate EA that enters at those extreme levels? The upward/downward movement or "spike" isn't confined to a candle close, as that spike can be of any duration, such as one minute, two minutes, 5 minutes, or a more gradual move of One ...

No way to know for sure, IMHO. The EUR/USD has gone up 400 pips in 2 hours. There was a retrace of about 70 pips from the high, and it then went back up to past that high. It all depends on how the world reacts to the news. Can it go up even another ...

Thanks, Clear Trade. Posts that show how people have fared, particularly live, are very helpful to me in making decisions. From what you posted, was probably the same two trades my FXDD demo took. As you also have a live IBFX account that's working, ...

As far as opening two positions, I'm using the v014R8 also on the AUD/USD and it opened a sell at 11:00, which was down 28 PIPS, and opened a BUY at 16:00, and I have two positions open on that pair now. On the EUR/USD, it has opened 6 positions, ...

Siobi, I'll try the EA live soon on my IBFX account to see if it works. On my FXDD demo account, trade opened at a sell at 1.3016 and was down 40 PIPS, and had me thinking the reason was that Dan Johnson must have just gone live. Now it's only down ...

Let me know if your EA works on IBFX live. If it does, I'll go live at small lots to start. One guy I know claims proof that they fool around with the spread, and others claim they hunt for stops. Haven't heard they freeze platforms so you can't ...

Siobi, you're saying you're using the EA live on IBFX? If so, that's great! I wonder why I can't get any trades on the demo. Using v104R8 on 30 minute chart.

I haven't gotten any trades on IBFX, but works fine on FXDD. Good luck trying it live. I'd like it to work on IBFX live, as my account is with them.

Make sure that "Allow live trading" on the EA itself is checked. You do that by clicking on "Properties" and then going to the "Common" folder. Also, up top, on the chart, you have to make sure you click the "Expert Advisors" to ON

Dan, I think that's right. Also, your trade and mine matched identically on FXDD, which is a good sign. I just KNOWWWW live will work just as well. (no negative vibes here)

The 104r8 just got another 20 pip win, buying at 1.2997 and closing not too long afterwards. I looked at the trade and thought it was buying too late in the trend. What do I know, eh?
Any more of this, and I'll be forced to move a little bit of ...FX_30M Bouncing System

One 20 PIP win last night on a buy at 1.3008 which just barely squeaked out the win. Another breakeven on a sell at 1.2955. This is on the v104V8 on a 30 minute chart. The v106 on the 15 minute chart had 2 very small losers. VERY impressed so far, ...

The FXDD short trade on the EUR/USD is up 14 PIPS as I write. Would consider putting some money in a live account if it kept up. It was down about 17 PIPS at one point. Don't like a 100 pip stop with a 20 PIP take profit, but I know these TP and SL ...

IBFX has taken no trades & I re-downloaded the platform and EAS. Still nothing. I loaded the EAs onto a FXDD demo account, and within a few minutes, the v106 EA made a trade. I immediately checked IBFX to see if it also made a trade, and it didn't. ...
