R U guys going to continue trading as we approach Easter Weekend, you know with the possible declining volumes? I'm thinking about not trading until next week. What do you guys think? Easter is big in Europe.

Hey Dreamliner, that field in the EA refers to PIPS not a percentage so, 75% of 30 pips is 20 pips. So, what goes in the field is 20. If your take profit field is 100 pips for example and you want your breakeven field to be 80%... you would enter 80 ...

Mer, have you thought about trying this: Instead of closing out all the lots at TP, it closes out 1/2 of the lots and moves the stoploss to 75% of the TP. From here you could call it a day OR have it open the sequence again at the TP as long as the ...

Mer, I used the regular 10 sl, 40tp, 30b/e, and one of those trades was a breakeven trade I forgot to mention and I agree with Damoni in that it would be awesome to have a second chance after the b/e without increasing the lot size. You're right ...

I opened a trade today by having TIME and PRICE set to false and it did take a few seconds once I dropped it in but, it didn't seem like it took waaay too long but perhaps it could be quicker. I don't know if my virtual server has anything to do ...

Cool! Looks like after the tp is hit, the ea does not take any more trades even if the end time has not expired.

Cool! — I like it! That would bring down the risk even further. When do you think that bug will be worked out and posted the fixed version? Thank you for the advise about the stop level and also thank you for answering my questions!

Nice! — Great job with this ea! I will test it out also! I do have a couple of questions for ya! 1. How should I set the time if my broker is GMT +2 (FXDD)? If I want to start at london open? 2. Since it does not have the hybernation option, ...

What I was trying to show here is that if you see price ie; candle or bar to CLOSE into the 32 ma's you could take an additional position, then if the ma's cross as per nicolas's original system, you would take those positions as well. The reason is ...

If you didn't take the latest crosses on Friday, you simply chose to ignore price action on Friday. I am using this system to scale into my trades based on price action and wow! As close to perfect as you can get in forex. I mean, look at that huge ...

Do you think its too late for me to get in on this one? There was a good retracement. Price is at 236.37.

I grabbed approx. 135 pips on Monday, granite, I also use price action to confirm, if you would have followed this system to the letter, the results would have been similar.... but I agree that you shouldn't trust other people's backtesting. You ...

Hi Swami, Yes, that was a great one! I took some off at around 36 pips and am still riding that one, with the big difference of course that it is free trade now! Take care, Your brother of OM (although I changed my image).

Lastweek was a doji week for most currencies, very choppy, but that just means the market is setting up for some big moves after a consolidation week!

Check out my post, as soon as price closes down below ONE of the 32's, then you open up a test pilot position (I like that name : ) You don't necesarily open one up with the cross of price of each 32, although this test pilot position could be of ...

Check out the following chart. I don't want to beat a dead horse, but you're right to think that an inherent problem with ma cross systems appears during choppy times, but it can be countered with an additional price action crossing the 32's ...

Nicolas and Brent, After some thought, I came up with what I think may be a good system to use with yours. Call it an "Insurance Position", which you can open apart from the other 3 positions as the 12 crosses the 32's, and you are incorporating ...
