OK, I got sick of fake accounts and lack of control over what the system did so decided to write my own ea. I work in I.T so it was pretty simple to write an ea. The trade logic is actually only around 10-20 lines long or around that, most of code is management stuff.

If your interested send me a message and account number, you can test for 1-3 months depending on how much response I get. Will have 2 versions, baseline and heavily optised, (really want to see if optimisation can adapt a strategy over time). Will compare to base line.

Ok, Warning. I’m not saying that this will make you money. Use it at your own risk, demo or small account. If you use a real account it’s up to you, I am sure you are aware of the risks. I am aware it uses a big stop loss hence the risk to reward ratio is not that great. So please, you do not need to bring this up. I already know that. If that’s not your style cool, move on nothing lost.

The thing that I like about this EA is that it doesn’t trade during news, or at least scheduled news events. Taken by the rss feed at forex factory. I am aware of a potential flaw with news event’s that may have “All day” as the date. I have not included logic to deal with that.

I have not fully tested everything, this was just a project that started to look good so have added stuff which maybe cool.

It tests against 9 pairs, these were chosen due to spread.
It doesn’t over trade, sometimes it may make 6 trades over 2 years.
Doesn’t trade news.
Maximum Drawdown closeout.
Maximum balance close out.
Specify how many trades at any given time.
Spread minimum.
Auto detect settings, you may need to add a prefix or suffice if using non-standard pairs. (not tested)
I have successfully back tested EURUSD for more than 3 years.
All pairs have been tested at least 2 years.
Highish win factory, 85-90%.
Most pairs have a profit factor over 1.5 I can’t remember to be honest. I think AUDUSD had a profit factor of around 1.3 which was the lowest.
Not a pure scalper, I think trailing stop starts at about 7-10 pips.
It can take a big loss when it does 5-10 times.
trade manegment, risk per trade.

New heavily optimised version has been completed. Spary and Walkaway CF 'Curve fitted', let me know if anyone is interested.

Latest version 0.02 is ready fixed a few issues:
Inaccurate max trades reported.
Fixed bug the included pending orders as opened trades.
Added orders per ea, via magix number.
Also notice another bug with closeout all.
Also Added news events as comments but alittle cluttered so may make it optional.

Latest verion 0.03 added news as option setting.

Version 0.04 fixes a major news bug, wasnt processing all news

Is this based off the revtraderpro?

Not that I know of. Sure I used rev for a while but stopped when I heard the the History may have been faked. May, not accussing anyone of anything. But enough for me to stop using it. It pissed me off enough to get me writting my own. It has similarities. Big stop, traling stop, but the entry must be different as i came up with that myself. It uses support resitnce with trend. From memory rev used different trends and some kind of reversal but it needed a big move. I though that was dangerous as it could take that momentum to a stop. I wait for the market to settle.

Regards,

I agree. I saw your EURUSD base backtest which is rev - https://www.myfxbook.com/strategies/eurusd-base/80457 and saw your live account 'base strategy' so I thought it was your revision of the strategy. I'd be interested, I'll PM you the details.

I have been trying to figure out how to either reduce loss on the big stop or increase profit. One way that has help was introducing breakout detection.
Back test which has increased the profit factor to 2.65 but the thing I like better as a trader is its more balanced. The average loss was 12.40 pips compared to last strategy which was 28.05. Its actually not that far from being positive at 8.36.

Think this will help with the strategies that use the full 80 pip stop loss but yet to test it. Will upload it for people to tests it this week end sometime. Would like this in live as soon as as I hate taking the big hits, even though I have gotten used to it.
 
Think this is version 0.05

I have added another strategy to spray and walkaway.

Better risk to reward ratio, some pairs 1:1 - 1:2. This may balance strategy one out a bit.

Can be downloaded from here:

www.gerardsblog.co.nz/downloads/spray_and_walkaway2.ex4

Should auto detect. Can use 1 or both strategies if needed. Untested I will test on a small live account when I get time.
