{quote} Hi Steve... I have started reading through the thread... nice discovery using MM.. how are you finding your trades so far with this system? profitable? better than abonacci? cheers jay
Hi Jay - going well at the moment thanks. As you can see from my TE I think it's 7 wins, 4 losses, 1 in profit and 1 in DD, 2 floating around BE at the moment.

We'll see what happens in time. In some ways I prefer it to Abonacci as I can look at any pair and be picky about the trades. So I'm looking for trades that are consolidating around a level and look like they want to move, or where I can tell we have one weak and one strong currency.

You might of read that Paulus has kindly asked his coder to build an EA, which once we have working means we can thoroughly back test which levels give the greatest win rate, what the break needs to be, what the optimum SL and TP are, and whether moving to BE is a good strategy.

I'm looking for proven tradeable levels and TP/SL, that gives more than 50:50 win rate with RR or 1.5-2, and clear rules (I know, that's what we're all looking for right?). But I'm sure it's in here somewhere, so far on live testing it's looking good, but always aware that we need to test through various market conditions etc.

Still, it's good to be in the hunt and pips are coming at the moment so I can't complain. You back in blighty?

EA

I have attached the EA please load and post any questions which will be best anwered by Hollowhead

Hollowhead - any concerns or changes required please let me know,I havnt loaded the EA myself yet I have only just received it

Here is the list of instructions from coder...

------------------------------------------------

There are two sections of inputs, for buy and sell separately.

Buy/Sell Input parameters:

Lots – position size
Start_Level – fibo level where price movement must start
End_Level – fibo level where price movement must end
Start_Plus_Minus_Pips – you can adjust Start_Level by +/- pips
End_Plus_Minus_Pips – you can adjust End_Level by +/- pips
SL/TP/BE in pips

Grid input parameters:
BaseLine (price), Length (in pips) – the same as in the indicator

Other options:
Max_Trades – max number of trades that can be open at the same time
Hedging [true/false] – can buy and sell trades be open at the same time
Market_Execution, Magic_Number – the same as in all previous EAs


Price is first recorded when EA is attached to the chart. When you reattach it or reinitialize in any other way (for example by changing its parameters), it will start again from a new starting price.

EA does not use the Abonacci indicator. It calculates the grid itself. You can attach the indicator yourself if you want to see the grid, but it does not matter for the EA.
EA works on the strategy tester, so you can test it quickly if you like.

Nice Paulus, I have a quick question lets say we have a 23.6% price of 0.89400.
Will the EA open a LONG in this case when the ASK price reaches 0.89400 or when the BID price reaches that price?

During my test period of two days now manual using a SELL and BUY STOP, it opens a trade using the ASK price but the BID price never got there.

Haven't had a chance to use it yet, but could you not factor the spread in when you enter the Start_Plus_Minus distance?

Could be, but you need to do it for every pair and the spread isn't always the same.

I would ask Hollowhead and Paulus if possible, to incorporate the option of EA possibility of using martingale, as you know hollowhead I use it and I would be very useful. If possible thing to appreciate forever, I'd like you gave your hollowhead the appropriate indications, as is evident because my English is not good. Thank you very much again.

Hi jmss - I will let people test the EA for a while, and if people want to feed back requests , alterations that they feel will help (here or via PM), I will post them for Paul as one list, as opposed to sending multiple requests and ending up wasting his and the coders time.

In the meantime - you can always look at the report section of the strategy tester - that will tell you the number of consecutive losses for a period, which will give you some idea as to how harsh the martingale would have been for that period.

FOR NEWBIES - DO NOT MARTINGALE UNLESS YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND WHAT THE RISKS ARE.

I will not accept any responsibility in anyone's account being wiped out.
