I'm on version 625 but they don't seem to work, do you have the .ex4 version of the files?

I agree, in terms of individual stocks, but the stock indices tend to trend very well. I trade the Dow, FTSE, DAX, CAC and the Nikkei, and recently started trading the Swedish index too. The Dow can be a bit choppy because it only has 30 stocks ...

Van Tharp argues in Trading Beyond the Matrix that position sizing (his term for money management) is far and away the most important factor in determining the profitability of any trading system. He phrases it in R multiples, where R is the initial ...

Hi Rooi I notice your charts are 5M, I've had a long look at a number of 1H charts and this indicator looks useful on those too (commodities and indices as well as the forex majors). I like the idea of a moving line in the sand, long above and short ...

Martin If you're on a new build of MT4 (600 or higher) then EA's and indicators need to go into a different file location Go to where you have stored the EA (presumably in the Experts folder) and copy it. Inside Metatrader click File > Open Data ...

Change the mgridSize parameter from 3.0 to 30
- Andy B replied Jan 28, 2013
I'm very impressed then, I've never figured a way to trade trends using a grid strategy without at least a soft Martingale approach In terms of the problem, almost all trading strategies do well in trending markets and lose consistently in a ranging ...

Jordi, does your method involve trading bigger lots during a trending period? Not necessarily Martingale but larges than standard lots?

But don't you also have an unbooked loss of 50 pips as you would have opened a long position at 1.3050?

Agreed Not that easy to test when he hasn't given the settings for either MA, Stochs or RSI!! Any MA crossover system performs the same, regardless of "confirmation" indicators such as Stochs and RSI

I'm intrigued, count me in please!

Apologies for missing this, I first read the thread a few days ago, thank you for the confirmation Andy

I just realised when I changed TF that it automatically selects the next highest TF, thanks of the confirmation Xaphod Am I correct in thinking that there is no repainting of the indicator, other than the standard MTF issue where the 1H indicator on ...

A quick question on the xSuperTrend Tape MTF indicator, the display appears to remain unchanged regardless of the timeframe settings, is it fixed at the 1H timeframe?

The number of trades prior to a margin call becomes 10 instead of 6, so the numbers become .00097656 and 512, so such a system with a precise 50% win/loss ratio would last around 2 years before the account would be blown.

It can be backtested, but if you use a 5M TMS on a 1M chart then you can only validate a signal after 6 or more bars of the same colour. For example, if the TMS changes from red to blue, you should only take this as a buy signal after at least 5 ...

I do like the idea of this, anything which requires no subjectivity or thinking by me would be ideal! That's a hell of a drawdown at the start though!

Of course not, why on earth would I buy an EA like that? I told you it wiped out users' accounts within 2 weeks and you still want a copy??? You do realise that you can't trade the past with this EA don't you? The reason the SL was set at 650 ...
