I like your indicator because it can alert me, while I'm sleeping, to check over all my indicators manually before entering a trade
. I would never rely solely on it to place trades but it can help to prevent waking me up on false moves. It is also a good learning tool to learn how to write scripts of this nature. Thanks for your efforts & Big Pippins system of course.
This may sound strange but ever since I started learning FX I can't wait until the weekend end. Everyone I know thinks I'm crazy but it's a good addiction in my opinion.
Mcprant, where was your post when I needed it
. I spent a long time trying to find Tmobiles email address but I did get it to work and my test email works great. What sucks is that you have to set up your POP3 account on your local machine before it will work.
Oops, I have to stop getting off topic since this thread is meant to discuss the system!! Sorry BP.

As for the email, make sure it is set up correctly -> "tools", "options", "test".
I have it set so it only sends one email and then ignores any new triggers until the indicator is reset. I hate spam, (even spamming myself!). You can change this however by removing the "Send_Mail=false" line near the end of the code.
It seems to follow pretty closely Big Pippins with the rare difference explainable by different broker feeds having slightly different price values thus affecting the indicators. However remember that this system is really a training exorcise and you should never blindly follow any system that isn't well understood. So always display the cowabunga indicators on the chart and visually confirm what my indicator is telling you.
I won't be trading with real money until I have seen this profitable over at least 6 to 12 months. (My innate skepticism insists it won't be)
