One More Thought — We have a fair number of people all playing around with the same basic concept. My question is: Has anyone broken it yet? What I mean is has anyone started a test that used the core of Mono's settings (1:10 - tp/sl) and had ...

Leaning in the same direction about the JPY crosses, but I'm going to wait longer on it. Not sure if anyone other than Mono has let a non-tinkered with test run long enough to begin to answer that (his is still pretty small sample IMO). I've had two ...

In your test your position sizes vary from .1 to .4. What method are you using to determine those sizes? Not sure how it needs to be done, but I can't get off the money management side of this EA. Would love to hear yours or others inputs the best ...

Trade Log Summary — Started a new test on Thursday of last week -- just before the NFP and Fed meeting. I thought that might be as bad of a time as any to start Mono/Firebird up. It handled news remarkably well. Below is a summary of the trade ...

Pound Pounding — Anyone else hoping that cable takes a dive soon? I'm sitting on 5 shorts ranging from -10 to -176 pips.
- jbamaj replied Aug 8, 2006
I have a "hedge" position open on cable also. Its a long opened Monday. Still have 4 shorts open from last week. With the large s/l, wouldn't this need to happen some? With the short timeframes Mono's setting use, the trend could easily change and ...

For less volatile pairs are you planning to adjust your position sizing as your S/L's are now less?
- jbamaj replied Aug 4, 2006
about the same here. The problem was not trades that opened during NPF, but trades that were already open going into it. Cable had been bad for over the last two days. And my 4 largest negatives were already on it. One of those just stopped out and ...

Of course, just gave his statment a quick count so my number may be off 1 or 2, but he's got 72 winners on cable. Still up almost 1600 pips on it. 72 out of his 277 winners. pretty big piece of the pie.
- jbamaj replied Aug 4, 2006
mono's two losses are also on cable. adjusting the setting for it or dropping it is worth a look.

Seems to me that limiting the number of trades each chart can open only delays an issue. Unless by delaying the opening of allows the EA to get to more favorable market conditions (which is possible, but I have no guess about it), the percentages ...

Its about risk control for me. Without closing the 2 trades, I had 690 pips booked with an exposure of -3600 pips = -2910 pips With the two trades closed, I have 416 (typo earlier) pips booked with an exposure of 3000 pips = -2584 pips Why close ...

Started a Mono type test three days ago. I'm running 23-2. I closed out the 2 losses manually (-125, -149). I've booked 409 pips and have a current negative float of 10 trades and -173 pips.

Never mind on that question, its in your statment. Looks like it was order #1321232. Open on 6/30 and closed on 7/14.
- jbamaj replied Jul 14, 2006
Continues to impress. I must confess you have me running a similar test of my own (although I'm using Phoenix 1.0 as the EA). A little over 2 days in and I'm 10-0 (300 pips booked) with a float of around -150 pips. If I were doing this as a money ...
