I have not dissapeared!!!
I have been developing an EA, which has just gone into Demo - more for the opening and closing and using some alternatives openings and checking to see if the EA actually works.
Happy to say it is up over $100 over the last 3 or 4 days using 0.01 lots... the problem is that it is not opening the trades up correctly by the looks of it, or not at all on some other points... Not particularly helpful!!!
The indicator that i am using to open the inital entries repaints, of which i have no problem with... the issue seems to be the EA just opens up roughly whereever it wants... so just checking the logic, running it for a month, and then going to look at the performance over that time... if it is profitable, then it may be a case that it is just left to be profitable... I suppose ta major issue is that the brick size is such, that trades coudl easily be in flight for a month, so will make a decision at the end of June as to whether I modify or keep running the demo.
As it stands, out of 10 pairs and the DOW, only 4 pairs have been opened... which is fine... but i manually closed down an NZDUSD trade becuase it was just completely wrong as an opening... we are talking about 70 pips after the right open order place... Bit of a pain!
Again it could be that it was opened on the additional entry (should only open in the direction of an inflight trade) so there is clearly an error there, although the way the EA shoudl run, is that it should not be an issue over time, as this is a buy/sell, sell/buy system...
Will keep you updated, but will try to get a TE of the demo... at the moment my 2K is sitting a bit dormant while i test on demo...
