Quick question — I have set in running on several pairs and a few stops have been raised. One thing i have noticed is on all pairs the MA values are 0 and no trend is displayed, i am using OOTB so was wondering if anyone else sees this, see ...

Very Nice — I've set up on demo to see what it can do. I did have Pippo running be ran out of demo space so closed it for time being. I've had reversi running on demo for the last month and it has made around 42%, I've moved house and for some ...

In backtesting it should better profits if no SL set in EA. However i do think this is only wise if you are sure the entries are "perfect" ones. Currently my account is up 34% but i have a trade that has turned now and i am in DD of 50%! So I think ...

For some reason the SL is set to 1 pip, i thought i had set to 5 pips. Breakeven set to 2 pips and jumping stop set to 5 pips. Though currently i have a USDCAD trade at -31 so something is not quite right and needs resolving. EU, AU and GU have made ...

A few people have mentioned adding a SL to this one. I'm open to suggestions all though doesn't this go against the original methodology? So what is the general consensus on SL, add to every trade opened, or per basket? Maybe candlestick trailing ...

Double click the label and then drag, that causes it to get redrawn back and runs the code, i think! If i find time i'll have a go at adding the Execute Buy/Sell Labels as well. I've had the v1.09 versions running for over week and they are both up ...

slight mod to v1.08 — i've spotted a slight typo that might be causing issues with the trades, i've just tested both and they do trade both ways. The Edd version seems to work very well on the H1 EU chart, DD down to 9.6% and 260 on 1000 ...
