turtlefan replied Jun 11, 2013I think TCO is running one demo for each of the three trend methods. Should be adding them as Trade Explorers soon.

turtlefan replied Jun 11, 2013Which pair? What time period? What settings? What modeling quality? I have said it before, and I'll say it again. MT4 backtesting leaves a lot to be desired. Don't put a whole lot of stock in it. You are better off forward testing. There are dozens ...

turtlefan replied Jun 11, 2013Yes, I am very pleased so far as well. My goal is between 5-10% per month. If that can be done consistently, you are right -- things look really nice in 10 years. Before going live, though, I want to see what happens when these big trends change ...

turtlefan replied Jun 11, 2013No problem, glad it worked for you. I had another basket close on my demo as well. Something about locking in those gains that feels nice, especially since we never know when these trends will finally end and switch around. Scott

turtlefan replied Jun 7, 2013Not a big difference, other than the fact you have to be glued to your trading screen 24 hours a day.
If you're going to stick with this method, you would be doing yourself a favor to get an MT4 account somewhere. ScottD1 - 20 EMA & 50 EMA

turtlefan replied Jun 7, 2013We might want to consider a RefreshRates() command in there prior to the OrderSend() command. I didn't see one in there presently. Might help with some brokers. Just a thought. Scott

turtlefan replied Jun 7, 2013That depends on your Max Positions setting. If it is the default of 8, you actually have the potential for 0.1 x 12 x 8 = net 9.6 lots. Huge difference. That lot size is way too large, in my opinion. 100Pips uses 0.1 lots per position per $100,000 ...

turtlefan replied Jun 7, 2013TCO, it seems to work fine, but of course further testing will be good to do. It is based on the entire basket, not a certain pair. Also, I made it to be based on a percentage profit rather than a dollar amount. That way, it is not something you ...

turtlefan replied Jun 6, 2013TCO, I have implemented the Close-Out-After-Certain-Profit code in my EA and am just waiting now for it to hit the figure I specified to make sure it works properly. If it does, I will email you the code for your consideration of adding it to your ...
