Snowies EA with 3 indicators:

Take a look at my EA using the 3 indicators.

Hi Snowie

First at all I want to give you my congratulations for this excellent job. I have been testing hardly the EA and it really works so well in M30 charts overall.Entry and exit rules are so clear,there are a few settings in the sistem and it´s so simply to adjust.

The only problem I see is working with delayed trend indicators (EMA,MACD) but anyway I think it´s not a big trouble cause there are three filters to open a position,so that makes the trades more confortable.The solution is easy: We must trade only trending markets ;)

Now I have a question: What means "G" and "DK" parameters in "AMA"? I really don´t know if these parameters are very important,I haven´t configurated them and EA works nice,but I´d like to know it.

Thanks for your great job one more time.

Regards.

Aym.

the G is used to filter the consolidation areas out if you set it at say 2.5 to 3.5 it should filter out more of the consolidation zone but its not perfect, it does this by posting less dots along the ama trend line therefore giving less signals, the dk just helps with this by ajusting the trend line slightly . the best way to play about with these parameters is to optimise them, the only trouble i find with this EA is i can only get it consistant in certain types of markets and not for all markets but i suppose thats what where all trying to strive for but you can play about with it and find a good setting on most timeframes but i think the m30 like you found is a good one

What you have to keep in mind with this EA and come to think of it 99% of all EA,S written, it will give you outstanding results as shown above for a period of time, Be it 1 week, 1 month, 6 months or if your really lucky a whole year

BUT IT IS NOT CONSISTENT ENOUGH TO GIVE OUTSTANDING OR EVEN JUST GOOD RESULTS ON A PROLONGED TIME . SO THAT IT WOULD GIVE YOU THE CONFIDENTS TO JUST SET IT UP AND LET IT GO BUT HEY WE WILL GET THERE ONE DAY, IVE GOT A FEW IDEAS TO IMPROVE THIS EA AND HOPE TO BE PUBLISHING THEM IN THE FUTURE IF INTERESTED THE FIRST ILL MENTION IT WILL BE ON MY TWITTER ACCOUNT WHICH I DON,T USE ALOT BUT WILL PUT ANY EA IDEAS OR UP DATE NEWS ON so if interested my twitter account is neil@snowie19701970

rollin it looks to me that you haven,t loaded the indicator files correctly

these are ama, lwma and fx bay macd

first the snowies ea file has to be copyed and pasted into exsperts and the following on from the exsperts file you have to open the indicator file and copy and paste the 3 indicators in there, hope this helps

a good time frame is m30 and try the euro/usd clem but play about with it you might come across some other good setting just remember to drop me a line if you have some good results
Reason:
