Thread: Sniper Forex Expert Advisor

Hi

Have any of you made any more progress with this Sniper EA? I have loaded it onto my system but struggling to get any sort of consistancy in producing entry signals. I have it loaded onto 15m GBPUSD.

Thanks
Dave

Hi i have tasted it live it did not accept stop loss all the time, even i have to close trades mannually becouse the snipers signal change the direction.I again request to someone to help in programming,i just need a stop loss break even and take profit for this ea ,even ready to pay for this.

This is a weird EA, it's doesn't trade entirely by the rules. If an entry signal is given and the rules are not met it doesn't take the trade, that is good, but in the manual it says when the conditions have been met you can enter the trade. But when it takes a trade, boy oh boy, definately a winner. I've managed +42% last month only with the EA. This month it's not taking trades it's missing alot of oppertunities according the rules of the system.

what needs to be changed for it to work to the original rules?

1. There is supposed to be some sort of mechanism that checks after an entry signal, every new candle to see if the rules have been met and if it is okay to enter the trade according to predefined MM.

2. The developer advises not to trade the asia session when using pound dollar pair the recommended pair to trade. There is no way to preload the timings of the sessions and just say asia=false, europe=true, newyork=true.

3. This is what I've observed (not in the rules) When Trend_A and Trend_B are not meeting the conditions of the rule after a conditions met entry the trade just continues (the rules are okay with that), but in my opinion there should be a possibility for extra precaution to be able to exit upon Trend_A or/and Trend_B counter indicating the original signal. After studying charts from 07 to 09, I've seen that it's preferable to exit at this signal rather than the auto stop of the system.

If the conditions of the original signal are met again after the previous exit upon trend_a and/or trend_b counter indicating, you should have the possibility to renter, it should be a choice though since not part of the original rules. This is what I've seen so far.

I may have more remarks coming, but overall the system is great !

funyoo, would you be interested in programming on commercial terms pm or mail me you my mail.

The references to the indicators in the EA contain an underscore in the title the original Sniper files don't contain this either edit them out in the EA and recompile it or rename the original files, It dosent seen to effect the original Sniper Ex4 whatever way they are spelt assuming you are running the original Sniper files as well.

Dear Simon
