The power of the hindsight knowledge. You never know do you have a break out from the range or it's a stop hunting until it is over. If you know that market is trending, switch the bot off. What can be easier? Saying that I agree about points when bot let the big wins slip into big losses.
No, it's not the power of hindsight, and it has nothing to do with breaking out of a range. Also turning the bot off is not an easy option. Most of these big market moves are when I'm in bed. I can't babysit the bot all night. And it has nothing to do whether I know the market is trending or not. I want the trends and without the big trends this bot will *NOT* work. When to enter a trend and open a trade is the point. Most of the stuff I was talking about was clearly visible S&R levels on the chart that you can see with any decent S&R indicator, or you can draw the lines yourself. You do not need hindsight for noticing current, live S&R levels. Im talking about the bot opening trades at the end of a trend or long breakout. How do you know it's near the end? You never know for sure but if the trend it getting near to a major support level- a level that has not been broken or a level at which the price has bounced off of before, then that is not the place to be opening any trades. You also can know because the strength of the trend weakens very much as it nears the support level. At that point the best thing to do is wait and see if the trend will break through support or if it will reverse. On the last set of losing trades that were held over the weekend, the trades where opened right near a major support level and then the trend reversed. It's a very simple thing. But the point of a good bot is that we should not have to babysit it and try to fix it's mistakes. I believe the author of FGB is smart enough to update the bot to deal with these problems. For now, I will keep using the Trailing EA because that has saved me from most of these losses. I'm also working on my own EA that will open up hedge trades when any FGB trade goes in loss by a certain amount. Then the hedge trades will stay open if the market reverses and will follow the revesal with a trailing stop- hopefully turning many of the losing trades into winners.

I kinda skimmed through that. What points I saw are good. Figureing out there is a reversing market around the bend does need to be implemented. As for what you were talking about the set file. I can't find it I see the DLLs it put it but no sign of the set file. Can you direct me to the proper destination for that?
Sorry if you misunderstood that- there is no set file. What I was saying is that we need the author of FGB to give us .set files that are optimized settings for FGB to work better in these market conditions. I've done some backtesting that shows that different settings in the basic version can make a huge difference in this market. But I'm in no position to choose what the best settings are, because they may be perfect for this month but bad for the next. It's the creator of FGB that I would think would be the best one to tweak the settings and provide us with updated set files from time to time. I know that other EA authors provide updated settings from time to time as the market changes...

Here are some quick optimization examples I did for the month of May to the current date:
One surprising observation is that the new Smart Exit setting makes big difference if used in May.
Normal settings without Smart Exit:
Profit: -0.17 Trades: 21 Profit Factor: 1.00 FastVolatilityBase=5 SlowVolatilityBase=60 VolatilityFactor=2
Normal settings with Smart Exit = True:
Profit: 44.86 Trades: 21 Profit Factor: 2.05 FastVolatilityBase=5 SlowVolatilityBase=60 VolatilityFactor=2
Example optimization without Smart Exit - Highest Profit Factor
Profit: 108.08 Trades: 10 Profit Factor: 20.05 FastVolatilityBase=9 SlowVolatilityBase=57 VolatilityFactor=2
Example optimization without Smart Exit - No Losing trades!
Profit: 135.18 Trades: 8 Profit Factor: 0.00 FastVolatilityBase=17 SlowVolatilityBase=73 VolatilityFactor=2
Example optimization without Smart Exit - Best Profit/Profit Factor combo
Profit: 190.88 Trades: 42 Profit Factor: 2.97 FastVolatilityBase=17 SlowVolatilityBase=57 VolatilityFactor=1
Wow! Started using increments of 0.10 for the VolatilityFactor. All with Smart Exit = False.
Example optimization with new Highest Profit Factor
Profit: 265.68 Trades: 16 Profit Factor: 73.59 (!) FastVolatilityBase=18 SlowVolatilityBase=20 VolatilityFactor=1.3
Example optimization - No Losing trades.
Profit: 264.87 Trades: 16 Profit Factor: 0.00 FastVolatilityBase=20 SlowVolatilityBase=66 VolatilityFactor=1.7
Example optimization - Best Profit/Profit Factor combo.
Profit: 301.25 Trades: 70 Profit Factor: 2.65 FastVolatilityBase=20 SlowVolatilityBase=73 VolatilityFactor=0.8
After this High of $301.25, the next Highest was the same Profit of 437.61! over and over with the same amount of trades - an insane 621 trades! The settings were all over the place but all produced the same profit and number of trades. Also they had a very high Drawdown% of 82.05%. Here are just two of over 200 passes that produced the same result. Remember the settings where all different and varied greatly- except for SlowVolatilityBase which went from 83-100, but the profit, number of trades and PF stayed the same. Very strange...
Profit: 437.61 Trades: 621 Profit Factor: 1.32 FastVolatilityBase=10 SlowVolatilityBase=93 VolatilityFactor=-2.3
Profit: 437.61 Trades: 621 Profit Factor: 1.32 FastVolatilityBase=20 SlowVolatilityBase=83 VolatilityFactor=-0.8
This is why I wish the author could do his own optimizations and give us the settings he thinks are the best for times when the market changes.

They must have changed their code because their bot normally doesn't make a 30Min trade for 23 pips. Maybe their testing a new Trailing Stop setting. Any Basic users get these trades?
05.20.2011 11:00 05.20.2011 11:30 EURUSD Sell 0.12 - - 1.42476 1.42241 23.5 28.20 30m

The first batch of trade today was great.
But the second batch is still floating in big minus points.
Hope that the second batch is not "consuming" the first batch profit accumulation.

If i remember correctly, the last 2 fridays it done this. It shorted at the bottom of the opening of the us markets.
This week it jumped into the trade during the open of the US market when the euro dropped. Then it shorted again when the drop bottomed out.
the last 2 weeks it waited till the drop and then went on the short side just in time for the euro to start working back up. Mind you consistency is not a guarantee but it is defiantly something to take into account when trying to wack out these bugs.

I thought a trader was meant to be watching this trade copier and cutting the crap out, taking those 4 trades at bottom like that is BS. All stopped out just as a M5 bearish gartley forms. Watch it drop back down now.

It almost looks like this bot has been hunted the last couple of weeks.
Personally I think there is someone on the other side, however I think that they are only one person. I have no evidence to support that but thats my 2 cents. One person cannot monitor 24/7 5 days a week. This I understand. But there should be more than one person on the other side of this. One in asia, europe, and US to fix that problem. I don't exactly remember the details of it but forexscam brought up a good idea a couple pages back to help with these out of control trades.
