Hi!

Whot is the PRIME broker???

Can you give me a name!

Thanks!

yes i'd like to know me also, a list please!

And again no signal no nothing.

There are many, you will find that most large brokerages (Tickmill, FXCM etc) offer a 'Prime' service, if you google 'Tickmill Prime' as an example you will see immediately. Please note we do not work with Tickmill etc, it is just the first broker that came to mind. 

It is a service for accounts that enables a better execution speed, less likely to incur slippage, tighter spreads etc.

Please see above.

Don't offer signals as I trade with Exante and use this algorithm via a FIX interface engine, there would be no physical way to actually feed this to a signal provider. Please google FIX if you aren't aware of what it is.

This wouldn't pass validation + therefore be allowed onto the MQL5 site frustratingly, EA's can't be restricted in anyway to be publicly available, I have tried. Also, strategy tester will work fine with any broker with decent latency and tight spreads, I just offer suggestions of broker-types to allow for the trading environment to ensure the opportunity for sustainability and longevity. Strategy tester is based entirely on a brokers specific tick data, good broker, good data, so therefore it shouldn't matter.

I have however attached 1HR GBPUSD and EURUSD parameters to this comment for those interested in trying optimised versions. I have optimised majors/cross pairs on the hourly and 15 minute charts. 

Tried testing with 10 years' test data. EURUSD-H1

Unfortunately not a single trade placed with default settings.

Do you have a set file that works?

Please be advised, the parameters given in my last comment work perfectly fine; here is a 10 year screenshot of a back test. I have also added this file as a set file below.

There are no issues with it.

Hi,

I have backtested with 99% data and all looks good but I am concerned that at times the trailing stop can take quite small profit and a broker fee may make this unprofitable over the long run, have you tested it including fees with wide spreads? I see that TP is wide and 'dynamic' but stops can sometimes be tight and i fear this will skew results?

Hey!

If you test with a fixed lot of 0.5 (50,000) and your broker charges $1 per 10,000 (which is quite high), providing your expected payoff is above 5 (which it is in all the sets I have provided as it was optimised in this way), despite seeing some smaller profits, in the long run the EA will ensure you overcome any fees.

An example, if your broker does charge $1 per 10,000 and you do use a fixed lot of 50,000 ($5 fee), if your EP = 10, it means on average over 1000 trades for example, you should see an average of 10 dollars for those trades, if your fee was $5 per trade, your total fees should be $5000 and you will ultimately ensure profitability in the long run!

I believe the EP on GBP and EUR sets I provided is ~$10

Thanks

Also!

We have a spread filter embedded, this way if the spread does seem to widen to EA will not trade past a certain size spread, which can be defined based on historical data or your preference.

Hi - I use around 5% margin per currency and recommend 3 currencies.
