hey some question. im a beginner in forex but i still know some profitable methods which im trading to grow up my asset.
question is.. i would help to make this EA good and the goal sounds good:
The finished Excalibur V3 will run on a Micro Account with a balance of $250.00 USD.
when i spent my time to help invent and make this ea good WITH DEMO ACCOUNT - does i get the finish version for real trading? the problem i can only test the ea with demo bcs my asset is to small! and i think the goal micro account with 250$ will fit my horizon.
hope its simple to understand, apologize my english.
Yes when we are finished with this project I will release a registered version "free" to all those that have participated in this project.
As to account size, a $250.00 dollar account will work fine as a start.
As long as you are using the currencies that I suggest on a small account you should be fine.
Running to many currencies no matter what will kill the account so I am attempting to refine the EA until we have hopefully only four currencies that it will trade.
Thank you for taking the time to get involved here on this project.
To Success
Bernard

As I mentioned last night, the Forex.com account that I set up on Monday isn't doing any good at all. All of the trades were stopped out at the break even point for some reason. If you check the open trades you can see what I mean. It seems that once the trade goes into profit a stop loss is set at the buy-in, but that is where it stays...it doesn't follow the profit up at all, and eventually stops out at zero gain. At one point yesterday, that EUR/USD was up over 250 pips! I don't know for sure, but perhaps the fact that they carry their prices out to 3 or 5 decimal places may be throwing the program logic off since this is not happening with my IBFX account.
Anyway, for better or worse here it is.

Excalibur should have grabbed at least 100 pips if it went into a 250 pip profit at one point. I suspect that this is a "broker" issue. The next update should cover this problem here.
Remember after next week we will be finished with this boring data collection.
The drawdown is what I am looking at on all these trades. I realize that no EA will ever work without a stoploss in place and without the information that everyone has worked hard for here and supplied I would have what I need here to do my best to make this a profitable program.
Hang in there Bob. We are getting close

I have problem with Excalibur_Filters And SummaryReportInPoints,I cannot
play it,I have attached it base on Excalibur_v3 Manual instruction.
Please attach it NEW (Excalibur_Filters And SummaryReportInPoints) Again..
So that i could play with this indicator and SummaryReportInPoints.
Your (Excalibur_Filters And SummaryReportInPoints) doesnot match on My MT4.On MT4 Is BlaNK only..
If it is on Expire ..Please attach it NEW (Excalibur_Filters And SummaryReportInPoints) on DEMO....
Please resolve my problem..
Will be uploading a whole new set of files on MOnday to resolve many issues we have experience here.
When finished Excalibur will come with a complete self instal feature to ensure that every file is where it belongs.
It sounds as if you might have the filters indicator in the worng folder. ALso you do not need to place the filters indicator on a chart. Excalibur V3 knows where to find it.

Here are the results of my testing this week using the custom EAs for 7 pairs.
The LiteForex account continued to have a good return (but still had a high negative Floating P/L with some of the trades open for the whole week).
I opened another $3000 demo account with Alpari UK. The results with this broker were substantially different - very few trades closed, only a tiny profit and a substantial negative Floating P/L.
The EA setups were identical and both were run for the whole trading week. I have dedicated a seperate computer to this testing and have high speed broadband - I wonder if you can shed some light on the differences between the brokers that could account for the large discrepancy.
I'm going to reset the demo accounts back to $3000 and use your latest beta files from 14Nov for the coming week. I'll also open a demo account with a third broker to see how things compare.
I've had 30 years in IT and it seems to me that you're approaching this testing in exactly the right way. Keep up the good work - I'm looking forward to the next round of results.
Cheers and good trading,
Wayne

Thanks for uploading the information today.
I have seen this large discrepancy on a few brokers and although I do not yet have the answer, a few times I have seen the "Trade server" too busy to take the order, especially when a report has been released that moves the market and the "broker" make the trade text busy signal appear and no order goes through or goes through later than another broker.
I am addresses this issue and hopefully will have it covered in the upgrade come Monday

Lot size was too large for this account. Should have been 0.01 not 0.10.
Again what I am looking for here is the drawdown on all accounts so thanks for this effort. Got to love demo accounts at least it is a simple matter to open another one and another one till we get this right here.
The drawdown issue will no longer be there on Monday with the new release.
There will also be many other feature in the new release.
I am very surprised as to how far I have come here with everyones hlp and excited at how fast this EA is progressing.
The new release will allow us a more detailed look at the trades this time and not the drawdown issue.
We will still blow a few demo account here and there, as with any beta test.
Keep up the good work
Bernard

Hi Pheniox,

would appreicaite hearing from you.
cheers,
Malik
Could anyone please help me? i still cant post any attachments..what should i do? theres no button plus at the bottom of my page it still sais: "you cant post any attachemnts"..thanks in advance..im ready to post my results bout excalibur..
Attached are the statements from last week. I am still using the older version of Excalibur on the FXDD account on m1 time frame. IBFX account is using the newer version on m15 time frame. Will update and use the latest version on both accounts this week.
Attached is my statement of demo trading AUDUSD, EURGBP, EURUSD, GBPUSD, NZDUSD, USDCHF and USDJPY on Alpari UK using M15 time frame.
Unfortunately, I cannot attach the txt file. The possible reason for this is that I attached Account Equity Analyzer indicator to the demo account and this indicator probably deleted the txt file from time to time. I remove this indicator for next week and open a new account for testing Excalibur.
