Iām cool with that bro
Likewise Iām working on something similar - not being such a dick. I promised a member whom I respect greatly to do so. Probably the best way to do that is to shake hands with you. But with 5000 kās between us unfortunately I canāt buy you a drink. So cheers to us anyway.
@_bob
ALL GOOD MATE

i donāt drink mate,
but, iād fucking buy you a beer for doing this.

sorry to hear that mate,
my wife is in childcare, sheās taken care of kids with many illnesses,
Autism being one of them. i understand
Some look at it as a disability I look at it like a gift, he amazes my wife and I every day and is an inspiration. He gets into my cd collection and goes hard, this is the flavor of the month
ohh manā¦ i remember this
Jump Jump Jump Jump hehe
as for Autism , itās been my wifes experience, you get them reacting differently .
if this is your experience , thatās good
sometimes it can be quite sad.
at the end of the day, if he can lead a normal life, thatās all that matters mate
dude, itās been nice chatting
i gotta go to bed now ok
almost midngiht
be cool mate
First of allā¦thank you for answering, but you donāt have to be rude. I think that you didnāt understand my question or I asked the wrong question. 
While learning, I have developed 10-20 different EAs (simple ones) based on moving averages, MACD, stochastic etc. But these EAs simply donāt work.
Iām not sure are the technical indicators the right path to follow when trying to find the profitable EA. They are repainting, giving false signals, giving signals too late etc.
Should I continue using technical indicators to build my EAs or I should focus on pure price (I mean candles)?
Is it possible that my simple EAs are already good but I need to optimize them or apply more advanced money management algorithms?
Please, donāt be rude. I just asked for advice and thatās it. If you donāt want to give me your advice, just leave this topic and thatās it. You donāt need to insult someone.
Hi _bob,
I see come interesting stuff there
I will check it later in detail.
Thanks a lot!!!
@sivricmarijan
firstly, i dont know who you are addressing this comment to
but, if itās me
iām not being rude
SPEECHLESS would be a better word
How was i being rude
i told you what i thought
i even refrained from saying what i really thought (and it was probably for the best)
i then gave you advice
bob then gave you advice
how are we being rude ?
Iām not being rude, I"m being straight up with you
BASED ON WHAT YOU SAIDā¦ ok
seriously
what did you expect me to think after reading this
Nowā¦ if you asked it the wrong wayā¦ THATāS DIFFERENT
but based on this
mate, Iām bloody speechless , obviously
itās not rudeness.
Now moving forwardā¦
Yourāe welcome
perhapsā¦ so letās clarify it then
heheā¦
Relax mate
No one is being rudeā¦ ok
can you not simply understand that WHAT YOU ASKED looks as if you were asking to be spoon fed.
you can see that ā¦ right ?
Moving forward
let me address your question. ok
Mate, itās always best to stay as simple as possible.
in my experience in forex, traders want simple things, they donāt really have high demands
now. if they want complexity, YOU CHARGE FOR IT, as a special service
as for this
Why do they not work ?
have you done debugging to find out what the problem is.
if notā¦ do that.
Mate, they are YOU EAāS
you decide
butā¦ if you want my opinion ā¦
if your EA is based on someone elses EA then it relies on a POSSIBLE flawed EA
probably best to keep it to price
of course itās possible
like i said
debug then and find what the issue is.
DOES THIS HELP
Of course this helps
I just started with some tutorials about EA optimization and I hope I will be smarter then. I donāt think I should debug my EAs because they do what I told them. I think I need to adjust some parameters or maybe add some better MM algo.
One of the main issues (other than the strategy logic) with coded EAās can be the correct mix of parameters, make the period(s) short to get an earlier signal and you get too many false signalsā¦ make the period(s) longer and you tend get into the trend too late (volatile PA)
Especially with MA Crossover based strategiesā¦Sometimes trying a mix of MATypes can give better results, such as a 34 SMA with an 8 WMA as an exampleā¦You need to find Parameters that separate both MAās to give a clearer crossover. Longer time frames can be a way of giving clearer cross signals as well. Congestion or ranging will always defeat an MA Cross strategy, so you have allow for that manually or automated if your programing is of an advanced level
Optimization is a faster way to find more successful settings, prior to backtesting, but you have to test with tick data which gives, Open, Close, High, Low data as opposed to the usual āClose Onlyā feed to get an accurate simulation of the market (pair) your optimizing for.
When I first started programing Bots, I used to see all these EAās with 20 Parameter settings and think how complicatedā¦Now 18 months on my Bots have nearly as many parameter settings to deal with various price movement eventuations and behaviors that currencies present.
Stochastics have similar issues, the tighter the settings will give the same issues as above.
Edit: Never, ever use Repainting Indicators in an EA, youāll have lost money before you even startā¦
Fair enough
sounds like a plan
when i get stuck with something while troubleshooting, i find it useful to GO BACK TO BASICS.
so re think it
adjust some parameters
test it and see the outcome
good luck with it
Thank you @anon81929759 for posting this here 
Coming from an Amibroker background, My knowledge about MT4 is limited. If changing the MT4 order windows is a too big ask, would it be possible to create an EA for this task?
Thank you very much!
i didnāt post this.
also i didnāt say it was too big of an ask
all i did was suggested that @sivricmarijan have a chat to you.
but, Youāre Welcome
You might look under trading systems using google, have a look at what you find and determine if you could code it.
I have made quite a few EAās, I use Ichimoku and Donchian and Ross Hook a lotā¦ just my preference.
Hi,
With all respect to other answers, but i think the below Quora link is worth your time
