Hi Psmea,

That would be ideal, you need to match the timing and then you look at the backtest if it is matching or not

I’m using IC markets at the moment and DarwinX for testing and I keep my open time to default to be honest, I don’t change it at all.

cheers

Hello Psmea,

Darwinx is having very high cost when it comes to real trading, so if you calculate the commission, spread and swaps, the difference can be 2-3% per month on the live accounts.

 

Regarding the timing of the trades open, it is not connected to a specific timing but more of the data coming on that time, if the entry meets the timing it opens a trade,maybe you chose the server timing manully, you need to check that and match it with the EA time, also you can change the timing as you did and backtest it again

for example change the time to be starting at 01:10

Hi Marc,

The thing is, with these EAs it will start trading only if they get specific entry indicators or confirmation

so It can be idle for few days because the market is not moving much

you can wait for a week or so and they you can check again

I have one of my robots and it is also trading only EURUSD but since Monday there are no trades as well.

So that is normal.

Hello Marc,
Can you share some screenshots
Especially in MT4 you need to enable the EA itself to be able to trade

In the common section you need to enable “Allow live trading”

also for how many days it is on and not trading?

Hello Amal,

Can you share screenshots of the platform and I will try to help you?
for now you can check if allowed the live trading for the EA itself.

Hello Grzegorz,

There is a 2 week trial for EA Studio, you can use that to test your EAs

Hello Marc,

why don’t you try to take the 21 days course, it is a free course with some EAs as well, then you will learn to deal with EAs or maybe create your own,

here is the link:

Hi Raja,

A lot of things going on at the moment, and you will be so happy to see what is coming, just stay tuned for few days.

Thank you for your patience

Hello Epian,

Glad that you figured out the data part,

now in my opinion if you are getting charged commission and spread during live trading, you should include it in the backtest if you really want to see close to reality results, because commission and spread can make your results 1-2% less profit, so better to include them.

let me know if there is more info you need.

Thanks

Hello James,
Regarding adding the EA to the Live, what is the value, is it the same as the demo? did you check the journal to see if the EA is working fine or not? Algo trading is on, but is the EA itself is on? somtimes you need to turn the EA on then the Algo trading, some other times it is the opposite, you can share screenshot and I will try to help you out.

regarding the course, did you go through the steps, or you are skipping them, because you get new email with every step, sometimes it takes time, like a day or two.

PS the EAs work on more than one account, the top EAs are having demo period which you can download whatever you want and it will keep working for you.

if you need something else do let me know and I will try to help.
