thread: Great EA. Anyone interested in forward testing?

My recommend is only on DEMO The testing won't hurt anything.

93412Hello everybody,

Let me save everyone a while on this particular ea. This ea was analyzed in a different forum. It has been back tested and analyzed. Best results were somewhat better than break even. That doesn't mean it can't be a consistent profitable ea however from what I am aware that it would be better if folks moved on to another ea.

Regards,
Jeff

Hey Tdion, you know this EA should you Consider It.

This Ea is somewhat sloppy and It was thinking this is a hold over of an idea the author may have needed, but you are right it's merely declared and nothing more than that.

This is another part that disturbs me.

Double free;
if (AccountFreeMargin() lt; complimentary * 1500.0) return(0);

In this case free will always be 0, so what's the point of this code.

It's still putting trades, so I believe there is more.

I also ran a backtest on this EA and it looks like it's ignoring this lineup:

Inserted Code if ((TimeHour(TimeCurrent()) lt;= Start ) (TimeHour(TimeCurrent()) gt;= Finish )) return(0);
what precisely is Yield (0) supposed to do?

It's still putting transactions, so I believe there is more.

I also conducted a backtest with this EA and it seems like it is ignoring this lineup:

Inserted Code if ((TimeHour(TimeCurrent()) lt;= Start ) (TimeHour(TimeCurrent()) gt;= End)) return(0);
what precisely is Return(0) supposed to do?

return(0) halts the program

Hello everyone,

Let me save everyone a while on this particular ea. This ea was tested in a different forum. It forwards tested and has been back tested. Results were a little better than break even. That does not mean it can't be a constant profitable ea however from what I know it will be better if people moved on to some other ea.

Yes I recall this EA from TSD however, gambler180 is using it in a entirely different way, so who knows...

return(0) halts the program

I feel silly, I know the time function won't work: It's not possible for the time to be less than launch and larger than end =D, so that is why the return(0) there is not being triggered.

93412My purpose was that the account margin is always above 0 therefore the line is not required. It will place trades if the code is there or not.

Hey Tdion, you understand this EA if you consider it.

I guess you were looking at another forum.

I guess you're also looking at another forum.

Oh my the is out of the bag. LOL. Yeah I know of these...
