    Hello all,

    after a very long jouney through the universe of EAs, analyzing probably almost 1000 and losing money on live accounts I am finally planing to devise my own expert advisor.
    I won't plan it myself but having it programmed.
    Now I'd like to understand what your experiences with EAs in general and also even more interesting with self invented EAs are.
    Either I did not examine the present EAs properly or there's not any free good working EA accessible. I think if there are functioning EAs why would the people today sell them rather than earning money just with the EA itself?
    Have you got an self invented EA that is working? =gt; Not asking to make it people here, just asking out of interest and hopefully a confirmation that it is actually possible to devise continuous good EAs.

    Greetings,

    Yes my finished all experience is good with EA, and I believe if someone is searching for consistent profit afterward just response of automated trading.

    I suggest do not over leverage any account, and use some good cash management, and almost all EA will provide positive effects, specially the one that are well established in market. Even simple MA cross EA can provide good results if cash management is wisely used.

    Many people lose due to large leverages, and then they blew since they cant handle the DD.

    Hi myrmica - For the past two months I have been working on converting my manual trading egy in an EA. My intention isn't to run the EA 24/7...I'd only like to flip it on temporarily. . .say through London while I am asleep. . .or while Im away from the comp for an elongated period of time... so that it may open and manage a trade if the ideal conditions are met.

    Knowing that I've had relatively good success with my manual trading egy, I was also just curious about what kind of results I could generate conducting the EA in constant manner throughout many days/months. Im not completely done coding it. . .needs some tweaks nevertheless. . .but thus far the results have been very promising.

    Hi NorthShore,


    it is always good if it is possible to convert and program your egy yourself into an EA.
    Let us know how it works if you allow your EA operate in full autopilot. What time do you utilize for your EA?

    I'm asking because my impression is that backtests get even more unreliable the shorter the interval is. So a lot variables come in when its a test to modify the backtest or demotest outcomes.

    Greetings,

    1 Attachment(s) https://www.nigeriaforextrading.com/...-software.htmlI believe knowing how to code a ea is good in that you can actually test your egy in a faster approach to see if it works in a sizable samples of historical data. If I've known about ea, it would shorten my learning cycle. Most of the egies which you loe on the internet are completely useless when you analyzed them from the big historical data. This can help save you time and efforts in stop wasting time in trying these egies on live trading.

    Ea is good if your trading is mostly mechanical and it may be coded. I know some traders are discretionary but there are nonetheless a few mechanical rules they follow too. Therefore, it's entirely possible to code an ea to mimic your trading. The point that is important is that you take. It is also possible to better manage your position by pre-calculating your risk percent. And when you have analyzed your ea on a sizable samples of data, it kinda provides you confidence your egy has an edge if the backtesting is favorable. By testing and backtesting numerous egies, it will help to focus on important thing in trading and weed out these hints (esp. Those with habit indiors) which had no edge in any way. I began by paying mql developer to code my ea. After I'm acquainted with the mql program, it is easy to code my own ea (though my previous programming knowledge helps). It really open my eyes as I can test several egies over a time period. That is the way I manage to loe a profitable egy after one year of analyzing several unprofitable ones. I am testing it live using a demo account to see its functionality. Until it reveals itself in demonion trading and please do not exchange your ea with money that is actual. I've learned the hard way

    And another important point is that ea does not sleep Therefore, it might help you to grab a trade as you're sleeping.

    Attached is my test results over 6 years information and from an initial deposit of 10,000. It seems positive and I am testing it live to see how it works in trading condition.

    Nice eq curve you have there huntingpips. Can you run a backtest and reveal the results for just 2013 (as opposed to a full 6 decades of data)? Starting with a 10k balance, it would be interesting to observe the operation.

    Hi huntingpips,

    if the equity curve is only half that good in live ahead testing the EA remains excellent.
    Let us know how it develops.

    Hello Traders

    dwelling in NZ time zones

    Big question do these robots work

    If you're trying one out on a live account

    you wouldn't wish to wake up an watch

    your account has been emptied out.

    With 99% failure rate on the net from those losing on line with money investments

    what's the best way to attack this.

    Can you get a robot to work on micro account with $10K

    Can you get a robot which will take small trades,hedging pairs therefore margins don't blow out.

    I tried a couple of things out they did not work at all,I already know how to eliminate money trading.

    The plan is to run the robot on the micro account,just build funds.

    What is everyone doing
