Had a comment from someone who's using the EAs I posted a little while back, seems they aren't suitable as they went into DD for a while this week. I appreciate the "valley of despair" element of longer term trading, with this style, isn't for ...

You boys are having no luck, think I read somewhere that Macron was going to up the working week to 19 hours, merde.

No joke, I actually ordered moules mariniere yesterday for lunch, I'm sure the markets will reflect all of this after the weekend . Off to golf now, was going in the Bugatti but it’s broken down so I'll take the van.

Damn right, on another note, one of my favourite quotes from The Big Short: The truth is like poetry, and most people f@~king hate poetry.

No one who currently holds a FR40 trade is allowed to leave the thread until their positions are closed at BE or better, I've invested in too many French products in an effort to help. Do you think I like walking around all day in these French ...

Ld has some valid points but a lot of this just highlights the paralysis we find ourselves in should we only trade on relative certainty. My basic EAs (for example) have produced a 20% profit in 30 weeks after 1000s of trades but it would be naive ...

I’m using MT4 for the EA experiment, same for live trading or my phone.

Once you have the EA, download and test using MT4 for free.

Just add logic: After_trades (value=500) trading stop . EAs handy for some jobs and concept checking but not sure I could rely on them full time.

Have a look at that EA compiling site, I've made quite a few now and use them for all sorts of alerts, screen displays, basket closing EAs. Gets quite satisfying once you get going, you'll need to get your head around variables and constants but ...

Better still have a look at fxdreema (others are available) and make your own EAs, I've posted the parameters previously and the logic is very simple, it's worth investing the time if you want to automate anything, believe me. Imagine if you come up ...

Had a friend many years ago who bought and sold cars for a living on an industrial scale, told me to never buy anything French or yellow (cars that is, as the custard slices can be delicious). That current FR40 green candle is the result of my ...

This bit, I suspect, is almost defintely true (if you are willing to park all your morals). Re screen time, that's why I trade the way I do so I'm not stuck nursing my trades, if I go a whole day without looking at them it's not a problem for me, ...

Hi Snoozy, if you are going to trade/test using EAs you need to at least be able to edit them yourself, don't need to be a coder, have a look at fxdreema.

It's a win/win, the more money everyone puts into the CAC/ French economy the sooner it will go up, I'm off for some pain au chocolat and Châteauneuf-du-Pape.

No problem, if my hedge live trading continues at its current rate I'll be on track for +/- +40% for the year as it's currently running around .8% per week with no more than approx 3% DD to date (I'll need to check the exact figures later), I'm ...

Hello Ld, please don't take this personally but from what I can glean from your posts I'm thinking your psychology is wrong, you seem an intelligent chap who is determined to find ways not to trade. I've been trading profitably for decades, using ...

I don't hold a great deal of faith in backtesting if truth be told, only to test basic concepts, forward testing with real money on the other hand (and don't overthink it). If I remember correctly I started looking at USD/MXN as a ...

They open based on a certain size candle then add as long as a gap big enough appears, all trades and TP are optimised after some backtesting, no SL as I’m not a fan and haven’t used one for years, pretty basic stuff but you are correct about costs, ...
