I solved the mistery by research. My Demo account was running without leverage. So in most cases the EA traded the minimal lot 0.01. Topic closed

Hi I managed to import your custom EA. Thank you for creating it. How do I set the MA type to smooth for example?

@ZUWZ
Hi there. I am basically trying to achieve the same thing as you. I have downloaded the same indicator, and imported into FXdreema. However when I create a test EA it does not open any trades.
Do you know what I am missing here?

Hi. Thanks for the reply. I understand now. Makes total sense. Did you ever continue on this EA?

I can provide some info: I did not optimize it for 8 years, but for the first 4, and I found the settings to produce profits also in the second 4 years. You are right, that the bull candle is often followed by a bear market, but the SL is very tight, and the EA loses most trades, but has a good TP with high RR, which compensates for the losses.

Dear Community,
I am sharing a simple profitable EA. It is not insanely profitable, it might suffer from over-optimization, but it is backtested over 8 years, and runs a profit. It is no Martingale or Grid system. Each Trade has a SL. The risk settings are so, that the overall Drawdown does not go over 10%. The EA makes around 80% over the 8 years. (not much I know).

How does it work: It looks for overbought/sold conditions on the RSI. Once this is happening it enters when the candle crosses the Moving average. The candle needs to follow specific criteria (in direction of trade (bull/bear), no long wick. SL is the recent swing low, high.

Why do I share it: To encourage others.

What's in it for me: Please provide feedback on it, and ideas how to optimize it. I am thinking that, if more people work together to create EAs, we will get better ideas and more profitable EAs. Please also share your examples if you like.

Regards,
Dan

Hi Roar, I dont know if you are still watching this thread, but I tried your EA and it is still profitable. Both on the 5min and 15min on EURUSD. I have to admit, that I dont understand it fully, but I gave it a go, and I wondered, if it would make sense to continue improving it.

Thanks a lot!!

Dear Community,

here is probably a simple question for you guys: I have an EA running, that starts with the "no trade" (either buy or sell) filter. This works all well. However I would like to know, does this also take into account manually opened trades?

To give an example: let's say the EA trades EURUSD longs only with the first filter "if no buy", then based on indicators go long.
Now, I have already a manually opened trade on EURUSD running when all the criteria align, will it actually take the trade, or will it read it, as a trade that has already been triggered?

What I want is, the EA to basically ignore that I have manually opened trades, and still take the trade. Just want to make sure this is actually happening.

I hope this is clearly described.

Hi I just saw your solution here. I tried to copy the calculation code, but I ran into errors. Did anyone try this out, and did it work without errors?

I dont know a solution in FXDreema, but there is a Telegram Trade Bot out there. It is not free. You can then open telegram on your computer, and on your phone. You create your own channel, in which you post the Trade Info. The bot automatically calculates the lot size based on SL & Risk percentage.
