yes. and also i don`t believe that there may be a private permanently successful ea .
but in here , and with guys like you and wolfe . we will make it .
already we have gone most of the way.
with that last little idea . be sure that you can use it safly in your real.
Kayvan,
We'll get it. I realize you have already stated your additional ideas for this EA in various posts. I need a favor from you. Please post again ALL your ideas in one place, so I can wrap my head around them, and try to incorporate them into the EA for testing. Thanks!

Wolfe, as you and all other that knows something about how to must act an martingale ea ,know, till now this ea that you made, is the best one .
but there is a problem (a big one that all the martingale experts have) .that is their progression when goes so far . but market don`t go as so far as they expect to go .
take a close look at this , Wolfe ... let`s say we are in level 7 . it`s mean we begun with 0.1 and now we are going to have our 6.4 lot size order .
while there was no such a movement in market . why we went so far ? it is not logical , in my thought ,and in this case ,if our positions were against the trend ,it is a really gambling play , and, as every body knows there is no
win for gambling players at all. most funny , when our first order goes so far in profit, but with 0.1 lot size, in this case we let it go , say 50 pips , with 0.1 we don`t do anything , but at the end of the market movement , we begin to add to our order lot sizes .in my opinion this is not logical . OK ,our ea dose nottrade against the trend . that is very good . so we are not gambling . but we need a large amount of money , to can be able ,to carry these levels to come out with no lose .
what is the solutions : first of all , it seems ,using an indicator based on price actions , will solve the problem . but as you know, an indicator also needs to be filter . but anyway it will reduce the false orders .
the second solution and best solution(in my thought) for this problem is , let the marketdetermine for our lot sizes increment . how ? if the market wants to go 50 pips above or below the previous candle, OK let it go but not with 0.1 lot size position , in this case market tell us we need 50 order with 0.1 lot size . it means we must release 50 order, in every pip movement in it`s direction ,above or below the previous bar.( or every 2 or 3 or....pip market movement depends on trader risk able ) .
that was all i meant . in case of any questions , i can explain it on a chart.

another option that we will need for back testing this ea is time interval .
notice every body as all experiments say , the best time for beginning the trade is 5 GMT .
...as some of you may know I hit a 6.40 progression and by the time the WFM got it all closed I made nothing and lost half my profit...I was still up 3.8% but here is my new setfile. I changed some things..like choose own progression instead of doubling...kayvan lag is no longer 2/2...it is now 3/3. The lookback is 2 instead of 1.
The lookback of 2 did not work on the kayvan lag of 3/3 on the custom progression = true, in the m5 cable with pyramid = true and filter=true.
It only did a lookback 1 on its first trade. I am waiting to see what it does on subsequent trades. Late Edit: subsequent trades are fine.
Also the lag of 3 did not work...it just adds the spread no matter what the lag said...
ES,
The code for the first order is different than the code for additional trade progressions. That's where this frustration is from.
First order using kayvan method for buy:
PHP Code:
if ((Pyramid==true)&&(Bid > High[1])&&(OTBM(Magic_Number)==0))
{OrderSend Buy...etc...
}
Additional order using kayvan method:
PHP Code:
if ((Pyramid==true)&&(Use_MA_Entry==false)&&(Ask >= Next_Buy)&&(Ask>Last_Buy)&&(Last_Type==OP_SELL)&&(Last_Entry_Filter==true))
{
Ordersend.....
}
This can easily be fixed, I simply overlooked the criteria for the first order. Sorry.
Does the look back seem to work O.K. for all the additional orders?
As far as the "Lag" goes, all it simply should be doing (as I programmed it, maybe not what people thought) is (if you enter 3) opening an the order 3 pips above the high or 3 pips below the low based on your look back. Opening the orders at least as close to this as the broker will allow due to re-quotes, or slippage.
I think it is working correctly on the subsequent orders..can you fix this "first order bug" and I will test further and let you know about the subsequent orders ok?
I am sure glad you can find this stuff as I have a hard time to explain it...By the way...I am not feeling any frustration, other than my lack of coding skills...
