If you had read my post you would notice that the TS is not working...you and I will need to wait for 16-18 hours to talk to wolfe as he posted his schedule..
I had four orders with the EA, and I compiled the EA by mistake, so the lot sizes increased. Still, the EA did managed to close with nice profit, as you can see the cycle seems to be closed by trailing stop. Anyway, I will continue watching.
Hello everyone. I've been watching this thread and opened a new demo account just for TFX. I'll post the daily results. I'm using it at default settings. Is H1 OK for this EA?
@ElectricSavant : Can you please resend your settings file? Tnx.

For those of you logged into the test account for the M30 (with the setfile in the post above) I had to close all the trades manually with a $55.30 profit. The Trailing Stop is not working even partially or with incorrect calc's...it is just plain not functioning....(there is a possibility of the input using a mirrored value) and I removed the EA v1.6.
I am waiting for wolfe tonight, Please stand by.

P.S. I am still trading the original kayvan EA and you are welcome to log in...it is approaching 10% profit...and has been running nonstop since Feb. 14th, 2008 with a max of 6.4 reached, just once.

I restarted the M30 test with a 5 buck profit and I turned the Trailing Stop (TS) off. Please excuse the confusion and all are welcome to log in and watch this great EA v1.6 function. The TS will be fixed when wolfe gets back, meanwhile use this setfile I will use below.
For me, the trailing stop seems to work without any fault - the only thing is, I set the TSLoss_Percent as 17 - not as 83 - Because, I think it is supposed to be the other way around to consider to accept the loss percentage. Please check this way, and correct me if I am wrong.
You may be correct eventhough I meticulously confirmed my settings with wolfe, publically (see quote below).
I have read your posts in tsd and you have good posts and I have no reason to believe that you are not correct. But why didn't you jump in with your discovery sooner? I notice there are many thousands of views here and many are silent...why is that?
I have set the profit to a static 5 bucks for now and disabled the TS, and will wait for wolfe to post tonight.
Hey this is testing and the nature of the game...Thanks again si....and when using the default of 50%...no way could wolfe know, as the mirror would not have been revealed with the 50% setting....
ES
P.S. The test account got a nice bonus is the good thing! But we really should not use the progression reached...the TS would have taken us out a lot earlier. I was waiting to see if it would and had to intervene while I had the chance as it would not kick in. If I had the mirror of the settings then that would explain much.

So, this is about right.
Close_By_Profit & TSLoss_Percent are ignored when Use_Trailing_Stop=true

Thanks ES, this new version has the "trailing profit amount" - brainstrom from wolfe. Never seen anywhere else. Hope we will be able to ride this EA flawlessly soon.
