BlueMonkey Real Money Live Test == Started Oct 2014 การสนทนา

@hokie thank you mate, I just opened an order and it works, now we will see how will manage this.
Cheers.

however an update about situation from @bluemonkey would be welcome.

This may sound daft, but will it work if the EA smiley face is unhappy? Need to transfer my license to my new broker after the Alpari crash, the problem is Alex doesn't respond to ANY messages.

@RedRhino at this this point we ca be more than sure that this is a trade copier and not a stand alone EA.
Also i suspect that the people behind Blue Monkey are the same behind sPhantom...more than one point in common 😇
Cheers.

The BMEA is not a trade copier, but it's more like a hybrid, it has its own logic running locally on our VPS/PC to manage the positions (add and close positions), but it requires a signal from the server to initiate a new batch.

Luckily, with the script I mentioned in previous email, we would be able to initiate a new batch ourselves without relying on the signal from the server anymore.

So which script is the one that needs to be downloaded/added? Did you have to use any other variables? Does this script get added to the same chart that has bmea on it? Anyone haveing success with this? Anyone hedging? Once a basket closes, does a new one need to be added manually each time?

Sorry for the hundred questions, just trying to wrap my head around it all.

Just wait for god sakes until BM gets back , you putting yourself at risk more than ever.

If you initiate the first trade manually ( use a script to implement the magic number and correct comment), will the EA start managing that trade and place more as needed?

What a brilliant idea!! I tried it and it worked!! The EA is opening a new trade using the script that I downloaded for free from https://www.mql5.com/en/code/9673

Download the OpenOrder_EN.mq4
Read the instruction on the website, it's pretty straightforward.

I think with this ability to initiate a new trade/batch, the EA is even more powerful than ever because you won't rely on the server anymore. Of course now you're completely on your own with your trades. You can even open 2, 3 or 4 batches across different pairs at the same time. And nothing can stop you from trading on other pairs too, not just the 4 pairs being recommended. It's a total independent, but it's all your responsibility now, win or lose!

I'm glad I can help. Since you are removing the initial trading logic (BM server) is it worth figuring out the logic of the entry? Let me if anyone is interested by PM.

No smiley means you need to turn on Live trading within the EA setting ( as to drop the EA on the chart).
@askew8 - Drop the script on the chart which has the EA on it. The script needs to open a trade with the same magic number that the EA is looking for.

Maybe I spoke too soon, with the script above a new trade will be initiated and you can see it on your chart, but the EA doesn't seem to manage it (no new positions being added). Sorry guys...

the script just open an order with a specific magic number which must be the same as the magic number of BM EA (but the script doesn't contains any BM trade logic in it!). it can be executed in any chart, but must be the target currency (to trade eurusd, run the script on an eurusd chart). you have to use it to initiate any new batch. so when a batch is closed, you have to run the script again.
but ... apparently you don't know how a script and an EA works, so I strongly recommends that you do nothing!!!!
because the script open a trade based on YOUR sentiment on YOUR signal. so you have to be a good manual trader to use it, else you can lost your account. and if you are a good manual trader, you should not use any commercial EA... so don't use the script.

It will be better I think :) as the risk is high.
BM may use additional stuff, like local variables, or specific text in the comment of the trade (and not just the magic number).

@hokie this is not completely true. I opened 3 baskets, 2 GU (1 buy, 1 sell) which seem are not managed and 1 UC which is managed, the EA has open other 2 order for this UC basket.
Will see.

what magic # did you include in the scripts of your GU and UC manual trades? Does BMEA allow you to pick your own magic number within the EA parameters?

I pulled these magic numbers off the BM older account still on myfxbook
246168168 for EURUSD
57316354 for EURUSD
900550598 for EURGBP
938404569 for EURUSD ( only 3 trades)
and the trade comment field are all the same, therefore you only need to match these Magic # with the EA and script.

@RedRhino I put the magic which I see on screen, I think they are random generated.

just opened a new trade with the script and on an unregistered by alex demo account. this could be good if you had a good strategy. this is sad and im thinking that no new trades will be initiated by alex i think its gone dead. we was clearly relying on alex to initiate trading and i will be surprised if he trades this again

NONE OF YOU SHOULD HAVE TO DO THIS!!!!!! YOU PAID $300 FOR A PRODUCT AND THE GUY HAS VANISHED. I'VE REPORTED HIM TO ACTION FRAUD IN THE UK. THEY WILL TRACE HIM THROUGH HIS DOMAIN NAME I SUPPOSE OR VIA HIS PAYMENT PROCESSOR.

@fxtrader10 don't worry I'm only play a little with my demo however you are right this guy run away with the loot and I'm pretty sure no new account will start, I will report in Paypal as well.

Now the script should reveal 2 buttons with the size of the lot to allow us to trade more quickly and not have to open the script every time.

this is ridiculous , a bunch of drama queens crying over split milk.

- BM said they are doing update!
