So to answer: I don't like to post my personal account stuff. Lot's of reasons, but mostly because when I have in the past traders say that I'm making my account info up ( even though I scanned it into a PDF ). You might remember an IBFX account statement that floated around with "what traders called ridiculous returns" that was mine... So no more sharing, lol... Hope you understand...

As far as an EA: I don't think one will work for this. To be honest, I don't think EA's work at all. At least not consistently enough to use. ( oh boy, I can hear the backlash now, lol... ) However, if you have an idea, I would be more than willing to share my experience with these indicators to help. Actually, I've wondered if a "gap" filter would help, that way news and other big moving events could be filtered out. If you re-read my posts in this thread, the only time that these trades are high risk is when the market is "artificially" stimulated, but that seems to happen a lot...

Anyhoo, hope that answers your questions and I hope you understand why I don't want to share statements now-a-daz...
Bruno, I think I may have an EA for this system that works! I'll let ya know, but so far so good. Basically, I changed from daily ranges to weekly price ranges. I also use an RSI as a filter. Now it works on every currency pair and because the positions are held longer with wider stops, the brokers can't dork with your trades...

Thank You,

So far the only downside is that it's not uncommon to have more than 9 positions open at the same time. The EA could be set up to filter out certain currency pairs, but you would miss most of the trades if you did that. Most of the trades have lasted 2 - 7 days. So far I'm averaging about 92%, lol... I keep waiting for the bottom to fall out, but like I said, "so far so good"...

Hello Jeff,

Right now the EA doesn't auto trade, it just sends instant messages to a desktop alert program that I wrote. I don't use an MT4 broker, so I leased a server and leave the EA running. If I get time I'll see if I can modify it. I had a lot of help coding the EA. I'm not great at mq4 yet. I was planning on forward testing a bit more, then spending some time coding the EA to auto trade for MT4 users.

One of the guys over at 4xlounge helped me with the mq4. I'm sure he won't mind if I share it, but I have to ask first to be fair. I'll update this thread later when I have something...

Hey Riffster,
Just found this thread & the method seems simple.
I'm wondering if there are any tweaks to the system, not EA.
Thanks for the response,

Hello vanhook2,

Yes the system has been tweaked to death, lol... and now works on all currency pairs, in multipule time frames. It is a "paid" 4Xlounge.com trading system now, but I think they are going to release the GBPUSD 1hr for free to show folks how it works. (that's why I posted the chart shot) The paid members have been using this system for awhile and so have I. The buy/sell signals make it idiot proof (that helps me, lol...) and the risk/reward makes sense now. The old system had bad risk/reward.

Hey riffster,

Have they released that GBPUSD 1h yet? If so is there a place to download it or check it out? Thanks! Got your message on the other topic about the power bar indic. Thanks for the compliment on the avitar.
Have a good day,

fx.......

yes, in fact, you can download a free Trade Messenger that will send you trade alerts when the system generates a signal...
