I've put together some simple code (it has to be simple for me
)
Problem is it won't compile. I'm pretty sure its only a simple (that word again!) problem.
This is the basis for the Stopless EA I was thinking about where the trade is with the trend. Trading is controlled purely by price action alone with no outside influences.
Therefore there is no SL, TP or TS!
The idea is for the trade to start one bar after a cross of the ema's (to allow the trade to settle into a trend).
And the trade to finish when the ema's simply cross back again!
Pure and Simple. What shall we call it? "Pure Cross"?
If anyone can check out the compile problem I would be very grateful.
Thanks.

Req.EA for my system
Hi everybody,
If anybody could make it easy
I always trade manually with my set up indicator over 2 years, generally they are crossing EMA too, but with any condition.
Here is my set up Indicator.
EMA : 5 , 18 (All in close)
RSI : 8
Slow Stoch : 15 , 5 , 5
Entry Market ( Buy/Sell) when both EMA are crossing with conditon
- Buy if RSI > 50 , Slow Sochastic >40 in Time Frame 15 mnt n 1 Hour
- Sell If RSI < 50 , Slow Stoch < 60
- Stop Loss 35 pips (at above or below EMA crossing point in TF 15 mnt)
- Target Profit 120 pips
- Traling Stop 30 pips
- order 1 lot
I will appreciate for him/her to make it,
Thanks in advanced
God Bless U

4xtraderHi 4xtrader,
Which pairs do you trade?
USD struggles!

creative,
I think yesterday was very hard day! I think some news has affected the USD (maybe the bomb of Pakistan)
Just wait and everything well be OK!
This is my statement
still a winner!

Thanks!

This is my statementhi, codesguru and everbody
i had lost hope in forex until this EA.
I demo-ed it on usd/cdn , usd/jpy , eur/jpy , usd/chf , gbp/usd on thursday night and the next morning was non farm news. I wanted to see if it survives.
And it did , all winners.
thank you and i will keep trying it out and will forward the results.
