MrPip, thanks for all of your hard work. I have downloaded data for GBPJPY and GBPUSD that goes back to 2004.

Here are some initial findings. I don't have time to post exact results, but I will give you the summary.

I used both GBPJPY and GBPUSD, timeframes H1 and H4, MM - lot and nix and burn0050. I have used filters and no filters (original rules).

Basically, this EA is very profitable for 2007. In my testing so far, 2005 and 2006 are losing years - I am testing 1/1/200[x] - 1/1/200[x+1].

I think that BigBear is perhaps exiting on the first NLZZ line drawn, rather than wait for a signal in the opposite direction. Forex11 tends to use take profit or a trailing stop.

I have not tested the TP or TS method for these years to see if it makes a difference. We will need to code the "exit on first NLZZ" and test to see if that makes a difference also.

Thanks for sharing,
burn0050
