hai there,

thanks for your reply. I have download your AE. Where do i copy paste this AE so that it can work to trade. Pls advice, sorry if this is a silly question. I am still new to forex trading. Thanks.

Dear Born to Win,

I have begun testing in these individual pairs using the M30 charts:

EUR/USD
GBP/USD
USD/CHF
AUD/USD
USD/CAD
EUR/GBP
NZD/USD
EUR/CHF

I selected these pairs because they all have spreads less than 5 pips offered by AlpariUK. (AlpariUS is not up and operating yet).

I have attached EA1.06 and all indicators to each chart, enabled DLLs and activated the EA. I have set the indicators according to your post.

The Alert function works, however, the EA does not place trades. There are no references in the Terminal Journal that indicates any attempt to open or close trades.

I have set the EA with the following functions:

ADX: true
Entry: true
Exit Only: false
ADX Ent Signal: true
I_trend Ent Signal: true
Slippage: 0
MM: 2
% Risk Each: 1
% Risk Max: 10
Use Trailing: true
Level Profit 1: 15
Lock Profit 1: 5
Level Profit 2: 15
Lock Profit 2: 5
Capture Screen: true
Alert Window: true

Individual Markets all selected as true
Broker Time Shift: 1 (AlpariUK is 1 hour later than GMT)

1. Why is the EA not opening or closing trades?
2. Are Level and Lock profits, settings for the trailing stop? If so, is Lock a step? Why are there 2 Levels and Locks?
3. What is a Capture Screen?
4. Is the Turtle Trading MM based on the maximum absolute value of H-L and H-PDC and PDC-L, averaged for 20 days (the "N" factor) times (x) the risk percent of the total account balance? If so, and I can get the EA to work using mini and nano, this is a heck of a time saver for me.

I appreciate your efforts.

Sincerely,

Matt

thanks for your EA,i can't download files.

There are bugs.
You need to have the same exit indicators as true that you have as entry, or it wont open any trades at all.

Simon:

Born to Win's instructions states that TRUE is to be set for ENTRY or EXIT, not BOTH.

Thanks for the info. It's the way it is. So, I'll give it a shot.

Has anybody else performed any forward testing?

It freezes my meta4 program. Is it only my problem or others too?
And took 99% my computer resources, I think that’s why freeze the program.
By the way, other programs are working just fine. It’s Only Meta4 program.
If anyone knows what the matter with it is, please post your answer.
