The Use of EAs

Recommended Posts

my advice will be to do manual trading .I have seen many experienced traders across many forums who did both manual trading as well as using EA's and always came up with a conclusion that manual trading is more profitable than EA's . One cant fully rely on some bots trading for them cause a bot cant see what a human mind can see.

Also there hasnt been any EA that has been profitable in the long run. All those Fab Turbos ,Sharks or Million Dollars Pips stop giving any more profits cause markets dont remain the same while the EA's dont have the ability to change themselves according to market conditions..

Thanks Ammon for the reply. What you said about robots is true. From my personel account they mostly fail to adapt to the markets. Drawdown can be a problem which in tern means u have to watch the buggers.

I am running one Ea that gives consistent win loss ratios 12/3. Let you know how things go on my live account over the next 3 mths. I've also got 2 robots on a VPS all the time. One is news sensitive. So I tick the box, you guessed it. Its not traded on the upgrade.for 3weeks. .

I will only let you know the names after a rigorous testing.

So it's back to the charts and price movement , volume ,Fibs , money management ect. I take on board your advice of swing trading. Grats

I've spent 6 mths now to get this far. What do you think About USD if economy put under more pressure.? The last 3yrs of QE and Euro it's been a Global QE .

i'd like to know the performance of your EA's for the next 3 months ..i personally dont trust in them though..:D

i read a report on Bloomberg today which stated the USD is forecasted to go high. The S&P 500 made its 5 years high last week and is now on course towards its all time high (1565 zone) ...To me the near future of USD seems bright.

im not a guru of the market bt this is what i think..

There is absolutely no reason (apart for the intellectual limits and programming capabilities of the typical commercial EA vendor) why a strategy can't be made to adapt to changing market conditions.

 

From the A.I. sophistication of genetic algorithms and neural nets to the simple regime switches and volatility filters, there are countless ways to do this . . .

 

If you invest the time to learn about such approaches then find a programmer to implement them for you, you'll probably find you have a far better strategy in hand than anything you can buy from a commercial vendor, and for less expense.

 

Hope that helps.

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful. Remember, sometimes what you throw in the garbage is something that someone wishes ever to have.” – ElZee, Quora   Profits from free accurate cryptos signals: https://www.predictmag.com/
