there are many versions but noone wants to trade D1 because of 40 deals in 600 days. thats like a few times a year...
Those that I've seen can't make good prophit.
MACD should be used for signals, one of conditions to open a trade. Not an EA by itselfIf it makes 20 pips on 20 trades a year with little drawdown, it would turn $500 into over $150K in a year. I'd trade it. How many pips profit does it take?

Hello my angry friend. I am the dummy who wrote this EA. I hope you accept my apology for sharing this stupidity with my friends at FF and others for FREE.
BTW, you can find the ongoing discussion around this "stupid" EA by clicking here.
Thanks,

Found this on yahoo forum awhile back called pip boxer trades on M15 timeframe need to set server time in e.a.'s to your broker time.Thought I had shared these before but can't find anywhere in the forum, so will try again.
Enjoy
mrtoolsHi MrTools,
I've updated the set of EAs several times. The latest version is much different from the attached file. You may download the files from FF. If you have any questions or comments about these EAs I would be more than happy to address them to the best of my knowledge.
I was actually amazed that somebody has tried to sell a freeware on eBay. Interestingly the one that he has sold was an experimental version of Pip Boxer. It has gone through several revisions now. It's been backtested and forward tested by several people on several different broker platforms (IBFX, MIG, FXDD, and much more). There are also some folks including me that are trading the set of EAs for a few weeks.
No system can guarantee short term success in forex. I am also not a believer in the "Holey Grail" system but Pip Boxer made money for me and I didn't see a reason to sell it for money. I shared it with others to enjoy it's capabilities and also help me build better systems and EAs in the future.
Please feel free to be in touch with me at FF.
Good Luck to all of you,
Al

Back-test Results
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The back-test results and also the previous weeks forward results showed that based on the broker's you are trading with you'd better to avoid tradig some of the pairs. Here I have 3 EAs for your forward test. I also picked 5 brokers.
The selection of brokers is just based on the feedback I received from you last year. It doesn't mean these are selected brokers for this EA. There might be some other brokers out there that show better results both at backtest and forward test.
PipBoxer 2 system depends on the server time of your broker. Please contact your broker and ask about their server time with respect to GMT in winter. You need to change the external variable "_server_time" accordingly. For example if their server time it GMT assign 0 to this variable. If it is GMT+2 assign 2 and so on.
The _server_time for the brokers that I use for forward test are as follows: IBFX=0;FXDD=2, Alpari=1; MIG=1; NF=2
You do not need to change any other variables. If you have previous versions of the EAs in place you see another variable to change (i.e. _time_shift). Please download the new version from post #1 to make sure this variable is set by the system not you.
If a pair is not profitable for a broker I'll mark it in redand if it is profitable I mark it in green. I do not suggest trading red pairs but you may consider them anyway for forward testing. The results on forward test could be totally different from back-test.

Why Different Back-test Results?
You might ask why we get different back-test results for different brokers. These are some of the reasons:
The brokers' price policies are different including but not limieted to spread and rollover swap. A broker may provide you with a tight spread on one pair but a wide spread on the other.
I either use MetaTrader and/or Alpari data for backtesting (the only sources for backtesting that I'm aware of). The back-test data can be different from the broker's data resulting in different back-test results.
Back-testing is just par of story. It's just there to give a rough idea about how a system works. You also need to forward test the system to make sure it really works. I have placed several tools and shields to enhance the behaviour of the system at the time of live trading. I hope with all these tools in place you can always make money with PipBoxer 2 no matter which broker you choose. I'll in the end develop the EAs for several pairs (at least 8 pairs) so you'll find at least 3 pairs that match your brokers policies. I think 3 pairs is enough to make money with PB2.
The Complete List of Pairs:
The following backtest results are based on MIG platform only. Please note that USDCHF(1) and USDCHF(2) are two different EAs that both trade USDCHF. I have shared USDCHF(2) with you.
GBPUSD
EURJPY
EURCAD
USDCHF(1)
USDCHF(2)
EURGBP
