why? it's better to take a loss. it looks like e/u. from my experience they are going for break of that trend line that formed over past few days lows. i do not mean it is going to be broken, I mean there is a good probability price will go to break it.
you know, Steve, the smaller your loss the easier is to trade back it.
ok, I start looking for opportunities.

hard to understand what you are doing Steve. have you bought before moving stop down or you sold and moved it to BE?
I think exact targets not always work. I was planning for 25 pips but had to close for half. price just did not go there.

will be honest.
I stayed al night awake and waited for the yesterdays trade. it is a winner. but did not take this one. may be I was tiered.
this short trade is in +45 MFE in 45 min. pitty.
no worries.
BTDTR.
this week is over with +85 pip.😄
according to the plan it should be 150 pip in 4 days with 4 trades.🙄
we can also call todays a winner😭

when I as fixing the code I made mistake and did not take any trade till now.
it is now working with the below rules.
it is now working with the below rules.
stevewalker posted:
it will be redicilus if I think any EA will work with fix setup after all that coding and testing experience.
so what I am going to do is
EA will start run with the results of collected data.
but it will open all trades with the rule below;
lot 1/1 with the setup parameters
lot 1/10 with the against setup parameters
this will allow me to collect data and work on it. if EA work properly then I can code a algo for "data work part".

momentum EA ( actually Acceleration EA )
currently I am looking the 20 tick acce. on the top of that when I look 20^2 ticks acce same direction it seems to be work.
but this has to be tested for a long time.
published account still trading with only first 20 tick acce and collecting data.

missed 23 trades due to coding error.
according to the log files( it is logging all activites) today all togather seems good with total 26 trades.
this is not going to make a fortune with daily ~25 trades but seems to be working.
I had found a IB that offers DOM for forex. they are open source. so I can use their indicators for my use with small changes and adapt them to my script EA.
it is monthly 79 usd. they have a week trial. next week I will try to use it

actually it is not so funny. I used ot trade MT4 oil, ECN spread paying 1 pip for each transaction. Those guys were making more money than I was when i was making it :) now, they almost always delay execution on MT4 and open trade at worse price. MT4 in this regard simply cannot be compared to Oanda.
