Thread: FT_Scalp Parabolic

thanks you Sir Funyoo for sharing this EA


wish to learn more about testing to enhance the value of this forum^^

Hi funyoo,

Thank You for your code on stealth --> great stuff.

I read on this forum that to adapt this EA to 5 decimal trading, you had to multiply SL, TP, TS, and BE by 10. I know about SL and TP of course, but what are TS and BE????

I am thinking that perhaps the EA could adapt itself automatically by detecting the number of decimals (using MarketInfo(Symbol(), MODE_DIGITS) maybe?).

MarketInfo is found in the code, but I don't think that it is used here to detect the 5 decimal and automatically adapt the EA. I am not even sure that it would be the right function to use. Do you know what code would have to be added to the EA to make it adapt to 5 decimal automatically? That would be a great help...

I too have problems with this EA using a 5 digit Broker, It doesn't open any trades at all, I see a lot of settings in there that I have no idea what they are. I think TS means trailingstop or trailingshag. It would be nice if someone could change these settings so it works with a 5 digit broker also.

Hi

Funyoo could you implement martingale ??

thx

Hi, Funyoo

Wish you enjoy and continue to test and post the performance of this EA.

Like others I am having problems addapting .set file to 5-digit broker.
i.e. "6. the 5th version for 5 decimal broker." is not version for 5-digit version
and previous posts refer to TP, SL etc. but this is little help in the set file
since .mq4 file is in Russian!

e.g which of the following need changing x10?

BBUSize=40
BBUSize,F=0
BBUSize,1=40
BBUSize,2=10
BBUSize,3=100
TrailingStop=55
TrailingStop,F=0
TrailingStop,1=15
TrailingStop,2=5
TrailingStop,3=80
TrailingShag=0
TrailingShag,F=0
TrailingShag,1=0
TrailingShag,2=100
TrailingShag,3=6

and

otstup=107
otstup,F=0
otstup,1=80
otstup,2=1
otstup,3=120

played with a few configurations still cannot get EA to work in MT4 tester, with EA and .set files in the correct locations.

FunYou can we please have 5-digit set file?

BTW - fantastic site! Really gets the thought processes going!

Anyone trading this EA live?

Hi ALL, I'm fairly new to FOREX, MT4, and currently backtesting this FT_Scalp Parabolic. I've tried all versions here and Optimized them with lots of losses, but I cannot run a backtest with MM...it will run, but I see no chart or results/trades. I can optimize the start/stop times or leave them as Funyoo suggested 17 & 10 although my optimization without MM tells me that 7 & 17 are better. Still, terrible losses and must be because I cannot run it with MM. What am I doing wrong?! I have FXCM (GMT +1), all historical data is good and there!
Is it the lack of 5 digit file? FXCM is 5 digit.
