Yes, I was short at 1.2620 with S/L of 1.2662. The market reached 1.2670 before retracing. A >52pip S/L would have been in profit. NVWINE - What are your settings?

Hendrick's settings have a 42 pip S/L and 18 pip T/P. The loss was 42 pips. I will admit that these settings are very concerning. For every loss, you must follow with 3 wins to recover those losses. Scary stuff, but I'm following Hendrick's settings ...

Question? — All - Do you let this system trade regardless of direction? Reason I ask, is because on my live chart (Micro) I have one short and one long position. Should I let it hedge, or close both?

Bad Hours — Rob - I've read on another thread that the "bad hours" message is a comment, and not an error. Some have said that changing their start hour to 0 and close hour to 24 has corrected the problem. Regardless, it shouldn't affect your ...

Going live with Firebird

CPI&PPI — I'm currently short EUR/USD from 1.2690 and I'm thinking of closing my position prior to the announcement, or at the very least, moving my S/L to protect those profits. I haven't experienced any slippage with IBFX to-date, but if ...

Well, the strangest thing happened this morning. I have the EA running on a USD/JPY chart, and it actually executed 1 trade, but it's heading in the wrong direction. Waiting to see if it purchases an additional lot the way it is supposed to.

Also, I do not understand the coding very well, so this is relevant information: I am testing this EA on a $500 live account trading 0.1 MINI lots. Could the "extern double Percent" variable or the "Increasement" variable have something to do with ...

Hendrick, could you please post your most recent v65 results? I've been running it for the last 36 hrs, and it's only executed 2 trades. This is after running it all last week, and it executed 0 trades. I'm not sure what's going on.

Installed — Installed the EA on my demo account. Hendrick - How did you not get margin called with all of those trades? Even at .5 lot x 513 trades, you're well over $7500 in margin.

I've been with FXCM, CMSFX, and InterbankFX. Of the 3, I prefer IBFX. They have very competitive spreads and their charting software (MetaTrader4) is the best and "most eye-appealing" that I've used. I haven't had any problems with downtime or ...

recommendations?

TwoBlink - It sounds like you and I have similar dreams. Currently my goal is simply do better than the previous month, make smarter trades, and improve my skills. But I hope to get to the point when I can quit my boring day job and trade from home ...

What is your monthly target?

This was quoted from Aspen Tradings Ticker: EUR/USD Technicals EUR/USD set for another leg lower as the 1.2840 level seems likely to contain this pullback off the morning lows. Next price target is seen at 1.2785

EURUSD

BigBaller, This is what I was looking at. I may have said it incorrectly before.

EURUSD

Prices look to be supported by the lower channel and weekly MA's. I think it would have to drop below 1.2775 before it tanks any further. Anyone agree?

EURUSD

You might try www.alertfx.com. I used them once before to notify me of EMA crosses. They only provide simple alerts based on your criteria. Nothing extravagant. Good Luck!
