After a long absence (years) I have returned to FF with an idea that was kind of bubbling away for some time and which I would like to get some feedback on. The core idea owes a great deal to Fibonacci and was further tweaked by a post from Steve ...

Great news reader - thanks MLaden. I wonder how stupid people are when they don't actually read the thread before sounding off about issues that have already been addressed by the author (or others). Having said that does anyone know how to access ...

A couple of weeks later...no more losing trades and some nice profits in the past couple of weeks. Some lost opportunities as well due to power outages at my home when we were all away for several days with the trading PC powered off and no trade ...

A poor week last week due to the interference issue I spoke of in post #1 - a $2 loss on the week.
- bryanjaldgm replied Jun 4, 2019
So how would you apply that logic when creating a straddle on the trigger bar?
- bryanjaldgm replied Jun 2, 2019
I would need to open a new account just for this EA as my current account contains the ugly history of my previous unsuccessful attempts to trade with other systems.
- bryanjaldgm replied Jun 2, 2019
I don't understand what you are saying. I need more information if this is a suggestion for improving the EA.
- bryanjaldgm replied Jun 2, 2019
End of week report Net Profit after charges: 9.3% Max Relative DD : 7.78% Closed Trades : 2 Open Trades : 0 Next update to the EA will be to include charges in take profit calculations.

How many times do I need to say it? It is up to YOU to TEST for the settings for YOUR BROKER, YOUR PREFERRED TIME FRAME, and YOUR PREFERRED PAIR. You've been given a freebie - up to you to choose to use it or not.

Have you read the thread??
- bryanjaldgm replied May 29, 2019
Some significant changes in the latest version of the EA (Version 1.4). New version in Post #1 Summary of changes: 1. Added a new "exit indicator" - Gann HiLo Activator - if you run version 1.4 with the parameter "run with new code activated?" set ...

Agreed - I've been looking for a way to do that which is why I have the parameter pair for maximum negative time/negative %. Other ways to manage the risk are to reduce the maximum lot size and /or the % of the account you use to open a position. ...

That's great news - I'm truly glad it is working for your broker. A “feature” of the strategy is the deep DD. As explained above I’m not scared by that as I am confident that price will return. In my live account I have the max DD set to 80% however ...

Please note that I can not tell you what settings you need. It is UP TO YOU TO TEST, TEST, TEST
- bryanjaldgm replied May 21, 2019
OK - I just made another loss - serves me right for making a change in the live account while I had an open trade!! Lesson learned.
- bryanjaldgm replied May 21, 2019
Keep me informed...
- bryanjaldgm replied May 21, 2019
Glad to hear it is working for you. Happy pips. Let me know how you do.
- bryanjaldgm replied May 21, 2019
Currently running live. As I indicated in post #1 I had some errors which did not show up in either back testing or demo mode which resulted in some early losses. The major issue with the EA is managing the DD. A 60% max DD may be too near the wind ...
