Re: [MT_E and I] FXI-Beta

Hello Jim,
Do you let the EA running 24hr ? Your acct started out w/ $5000 but
somehow never get margin call. Your max ordered lot was 4.8, mine was
7.4 before running out of money for a net martingale level 13.3 . But
my demo broker is different to yours.

Warm regards.

most of the time but only need 1 time lost to take it to negative
P/L. It look like after 6 or 7 time of martigale level trying to
recover its lost, it ran out of margin with an order of 13.30 lot. It
was negative P/L around $1800s, and - 1700s as I am typing this.

Re: [MT_E and I] FXI-Beta

Yes, I run it 24 hrs, but i manually closed all trades on friday before close, regardless of whether they were in profit or not.
No I havent gotten margin called, and I haven't even gotten close that I have noticed. It's gotten a bit worse having the 3 pairs, as audusd and nzdusd were getting a bit out of control, so tonight I shut those two pairs down. I am running it from this point on only with eurusd. Eurusd seems to be making most of the profit anyhow.
Maybe you are running too many pairs at once, or don't have enough capital to cover it. even if mine opened a 13 lot trade, that's only about $950 of margin required, so my 5k - 8k balance can cover that no problem. If that happened on all 3 pairs or more pairs, then yes, a serious problem.
I have posted my results daily, so you can take a look and see what it's done for me. The largest eurusd trade I have seen open has been 7.9 lot or so, if I recall.

Re: [MT_E and I] FXI-Beta

I was over at mike's last night talking trading when he ask me put his system on his wife computer. We copied some indicators and move then to the wife computer with vista on it. Down load a new MT4 platform from the broker and put the indicators in to the expert/indicators file.
Started up the MT4 platform and the indicators were there in the Navigator but when I tried to drag the indicator on to the chart it did not work. So I tried compile the indicators and made no difference. Next I copied the whole platform from his XP computer on to my USB stick and move it to the Vista computer under the program files. Open the platform that we just moved with all of the indicator all ready in the platform and every thing worked. The only thing is when he wants put a new indicator or am expert on to the Vista computer it will not work.

When you have SP2 SP3 on XP youhave to ake sure file protection is deactived.
Because any file that is copied in the system folder will be removed or disabled by Windows
as it thinks it is a virus or so.
There is a way that you can register he files so they will not be harmed or disabled by Windows
But that you have to lookup in the MDSN techzone of Microsoft.
Even whe the version of a fle chances windows will replace it again with the prevoios version.
Because all system files are stored in CAB files. Every now and then XP verifies if all files are still
exactly the same. If on has a different version number or file size it will replace the file with the one from the CAB
files.
This is really complex and since you are using an installer program you have to build in that procedure in to register
thes changed version if you copy them in the folder.

Because it is possible you install the program it works one hour and XP checked he files and it will not work anymore.
In SP! that did not excisted then it only excists since SP2 SP3.

Put this link in your browser, you see what I mean and it is complex to solve.

Tested very well in backtest, i had to revise my hedging strategy it was emptying demo accounts in a matter of hours.
I can tell you this, this ea has potential as long as you have a reasonable amount and trade with the very lowest/minimum lot size.
attach it to a 5 min chart. dont use more than 4 pairs,
the best way is to identify a moving pair then run the ea against it, when the pair slows down find another one continue to identify fast moving pairs and rotate, keeping a maximum of 3 pairs.
minimum 1 (recommended) .

Ok,
Since all the base code is already there here is the new ea which should be tested as well.
Its FXI-Beta

What is FXI-Beta?
FXI-Beta is a scalping tool, yes it simply scalp the market and it has the decence of stop trading if the market is down.

In order for fxi-beta to be successful, it simply requires a market that will move at least 35 pips in whatever direction, if it is a ranging market moving up and down at least 35pips then this ea will harvest a lot of pips. If you know any tools that can tell the volatility of the market i will be interested.

How to install?
Simply download this fie and unzip it.
rename the .fxi file to .exe and install.
open chart (5 minute charts) and use the template fxi-beta.
wait for your account to grow, this is a demo ea only.
keep your takeprofit pips very low.

post your results, and any comments/suggestion s let chris or me know.

That's interesting. I have a Dell XPS with Vista, and indicators & EAs work just fine on mine (at least I think they are working "correctly", they are working). The only thing I can't do is see some of the MT4 files in explorer, and yes I have turned off the User Account Control, and they still don't show up.

RE: [MT_E and I] FXI-Beta

Stephen,



After your UAC was turned off, the files you can't see are still in their
virtualized location. To get where you can see them in the MT4 directory,
you must either move them from their virtualized location or recompile them.



Cheers,

this dll is called expertsample.dll you will find it in the
experts\libraries folder, and it has 2 dependants, msvcr71.dll and
msvcp71.dll these two files are copied into windows\system folder (only if
you dont have them).

i dont have a quick remedy except to say try copying these two dlls
(msvcr71.dll and msvcp71.dll) into your experts\libraries folder and give it
a try.

Tested very well in backtest, i had to revise my hedging strategy it was
emptying demo accounts in a matter of hours.
I can tell you this, this ea has potential as long as you have a reasonable
amount and trade with the very lowest/minimum lot size.
attach it to a 5 min chart. dont use more than 4 pairs,
the best way is to identify a moving pair then run the ea against it, when
the pair slows down find another one continue to identify fast moving pairs
and rotate, keeping a maximum of 3 pairs.
minimum 1 (recommended) .

Ok,
Since all the base code is already there here is the new ea which should be
tested as well.
Its FXI-Beta

What is FXI-Beta?
FXI-Beta is a scalping tool, yes it simply scalp the market and it has the
decence of stop trading if the market is down.

In order for fxi-beta to be successful, it simply requires a market that
will move at least 35 pips in whatever direction, if it is a ranging market
moving up and down at least 35pips then this ea will harvest a lot of pips.
If you know any tools that can tell the volatility of the market i will be
interested.

How to install?
Simply download this fie and unzip it.
rename the .fxi file to .exe and install.
open chart (5 minute charts) and use the template fxi-beta.
wait for your account to grow, this is a demo ea only.
keep your takeprofit pips very low.

post your results, and any comments/suggestion s let chris or me know.

Re: [MT_E and I] FXI-Beta

Jim,
That's interesting. Maybe your acct is micro. I run only 1 pair EURUSD on a mini acct. I was mistaken that I got margin call, but it was actually not having enough money to open a 13.3 lot size. So*the whole move when it was lost*was about -$1800 something.
*
Thank you Jim
*
Warm regards.

Yes, I run it 24 hrs, but i manually closed all trades on friday before close, regardless of whether they were in profit or not.
No I havent gotten margin called, and I haven't even gotten close that I have noticed.* It's gotten a bit worse having the 3 pairs, as audusd and nzdusd were getting a bit out of control, so tonight I shut those two pairs down.* I am running it from this point on only with eurusd.* Eurusd seems to be making most of the profit anyhow.
Maybe you are running too many pairs at once, or don't have enough capital to cover it.* even if mine opened a 13 lot trade, that's only about $950 of margin required, so my 5k - 8k balance can cover that no problem.* If that happened on all 3 pairs or more pairs, then yes, a serious problem.
I have posted my results daily, so you can take a look and see what it's done for me.* The largest eurusd trade I have seen open has been 7.9 lot or so, if I recall.

Hello Jim,
Do you let the EA running 24hr ? Your acct started out w/ $5000 but
somehow never get margin call. Your max ordered lot was 4.8, mine was
7.4 before running out of money for a net martingale level 13.3 . But
my demo broker is different to yours.

Warm regards.

most of the time but only need 1 time lost to take it to negative
P/L. It look like after 6 or 7 time of martigale level trying to
recover its lost, it ran out of margin with an order of 13.30 lot. It
was negative P/L around $1800s, and - 1700s as I am typing this.

Re: [MT_E and I] FXI-Beta

No, not a micro, mini account, $1 per pip, using .1 lot size on fxdd. 1:200 leverage.
But remember, the account had 5k in it when I started, not sure how much yours had to start?
Feel free to look at my results posting, all detailed trade info is in there, maybe you can find something there to explain it.
If you can't find it let me know and I'll send you my detailed report from 9/17 til present.

Hi Shiva,

Saw your statement and thought "WOW" lol ;-)

How is the lot size determined for each pair?

Might start testing on demo next week. Thanks for posting and have a great
weekend.
