Hi FerruFX,
thanks for the EA, it is one of the best I have seen. I have noticed the indicator gives different figures depending on the data feed as mentioned before.

I believe each currency will have to be optimised for different brokers.

My reason for posting?

To assist with optimising would it be possible to have the output of the indicator appear as a line or lines? (separate window). Then it would be possible to scroll back and check the values against the price action.

Also as some currencies have naturally higher figures so for example with the Eur Usd I have about 20 short trades to 1 long trade. I could get around this by having the ea set to short or long only.

Again, many thanks.

Like a MACD for instance? Very good suggestion. It is something I'm also looking into.

To get some sort of an idea of the currency's "behaviour" (prices and values), I check the entry and exit points by running the backtester in visual mode. It gives one a pretty good indication of the values against the price action. It's a tedious process, but exciting enough. Offcourse, you won't be able to scroll back with this.

My coding skills doesn't allow me to make it for this indicator. Some good coders here can try ...

I have been busy backtesting over the weekend. I will now commence forward testing to try and replicate these fantastic results.

Test done using alpari data on a dedicated offline SBFX demo.

Yes, this is one of the best, I'll be the last to line up!

Would very much like to see who's going to win the race: Eur vs Gbp

Hi Waltini

I would like to forward test as well. What version of the EA are you using?

This one. Can only be used on GBPUSD. Any timeframe.

Under no circumstances change this true, it will be very dangerous for your employer!

He He,

Thanx Waltini for your quick response.

Waltini,

did the EA open any positions on your platform today? My broker is MIG so our data will differ, but it should be more or less the same. GBPUSD has been range bound most of the day so a good EA wouldn't have opened a position, but I'm just checking that there is nothing wrong on my side (I'm using 1H charts).
