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.

Hi, have you ever found a solution for this issue? I am trying to achieve the same..

@l-andorrà : Thanks a lot l-andorra.

I did a ton of iterations to make a solid grid system, and I found it actually possible now. The trick is, that once the trade starts losing, I continuously increase the grid size extensively. And once the bot detects a trend reversal, moving the trade back to profitable, it lowers the grid size again. Your help will allow me to play around with the trigger for the different grid sizes. Much appreciated.

Hello, I know it is quite a long time, but what was the solution here please?

Hi Guys,

I have a question that was asked previously, however always with a twist, and I was not able to comprehend the answers.
Here is what I try to achieve.

1. Buy at a specific condition.
2. Once the price moves agains me, a certain amout of pips (say 50), buy again (same lot size).
3. Repeat this process n times. n should be a constant I can modify

My try was this:

however that way I cannot modify how many times this should happen.
All help is appreciated.
Thank you so much!!

Cheerz,
Dan

@realjoker

Hi,

I am not sure I understood your response. Are you saying it creates errors? What is the reason for it?

What were you trying to point out this this phrase: array[eurusd][rsi = 33] ?
Sorry I am still new to this stuff

@jstap

Thank you for your quick reply. I did run some tests. At the time when I was opening this Question, it was not working yet, but now it seems to.

Just to reconfirm: on MT4 I cannot backtest this correct? But on MT5 I can?

Hey Folks,

I have a question regarding an EA running on multiple pairs simultaneously. There are enough Q&As open that have alraedy well explained how it works. One way to do it, is for example the controlling block "set current market".

Now my question: If I include the "set current market" and add various currency pairs in it, and then afterwards I create a condition, does it mean, that it will look separately on all pairs for the condition to appear? Or will it wait for the condition to appear on one pair, and then simply trade all of the pairs?

here is an example:
https://fxdreema.com/shared/u53JI6Dkd

First Block sets the Markets. Then once per bar, it checks for this MA condition, finally it sells.
Does it separate the condition between the pairs? Example: If the condition is true for EURUSD, will it then only sell EURUSD, or will it also sell the other currency pairs? Similarly: What if the EA runs on the EURUSD pair and the condition appears in AUDUSD, will the EA recognize the condition on AUDUSD, or will it look only for the condition in EURUSD where the EA is running on the chart?

I hope I was able to make this clear

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

@l-andorrà : Thank you for your fast response. I see you reply to almost everyone. That is amazing. Once I solved this mistery here, I will make sure to help out at least two others as well

Now on the case, I wanted to believe you, but somehow it does not make sense. In fact, I noticed, that the percentage is actually not at all taken into consideration. Instead trades are only based on the amout of the stop-loss. I changed the risk to 2% and it did not change the amount risked per trade. I even changed it to 30% with no difference. If I increase the account it does increase the amount per trade in the same ration.

For some reason, whatever I enter, the percentage is not taken into account at all. It is only depending on the stop-loss.

I dont understand what I am doing wrong here...
I would highly appreciate some help.

EDIT: the table shows the amout risked per trade.

EDIT2: I created another version with a fixed lot size
https://fxdreema.com/shared/0Vm59tXuc

Lot size should be 0,1. According to babypips 1% would be 0,2 lots

This one is now, not trading at all, saying, it is waiting for funds to appead....
Once I increased the account to 10k, it risked the 5 per trade in sync with the stopp-loss again. Seems to not matter what is in the EA, as the risked amount is always equal to the stop loss at 10k.
I am lost on this one. What could be the issue here?

I ran my test with 1000 USD:

Thank you. I was suspecting this somehow. So basically if I increase my account size in the backtest the percentage should work. I will give it a try.
