    Hi i followed the video step by step but i cant seem to change the timezone on the imported data from the premium data base, forex historical data app

    Hi Alan,

    I have tried it and changed multiple timezones, but the data time still does not change

  • Alan Northam

    Hi Melvin,

    The data time should be the same time as your Metatrader time.  If you are in a different time zone than Metatrader shows you cannot change it to your own local time zone.

    <p style=”text-align: right;”>Hi,</p>
    I am taking the 21 day course, and am just wondering about your EA’s the “GBPUSD M1 Scaling, USDJPY M5 scaling” I noticed they do not have Take profits of stoploss.

    I am a new trader, so I don’t understand this stuff. Could you please advise me if I need to set up a stoploss, and if not, why not?

    Thanks

    Jacob

    Hi Nake,

    The EAs that do not have a TP or SL will have an indicator built into them that will determine when to take profit or close with a loss.

    I’ve just implemented the the 5 EA’s on a demo account and the first two trades have been opened. One question I have is, what is the default risk lot/percentage? when manually trading, I typically risk 1-2% of my account per trade. Can this be adjusted on the EA’s?

    Thanks
    Ray

    Hi Raymond,

    Go to upper right corner of the trading chart and right click on the smiley face or blue hat. Select Expert Advisor, Properties, Inputs. There you can adjust the lot size.

    Hello,

    I also want to have good control over the risks (as much as possible). As Raymond said 1 or 2%. But in manual trading I learned to scale my lot size based on the amount of pips I place my stoploss. I used fxbook for this. But trading with the ea’s gives random stoploss positions. So what’s the best way to calculate the lot size for an ea. Now I use for a 10000 usd demo account 0,1 lot size for each EA.

    Cheers,

    Maarten

    Hi Maarten,

    You can use a position size calculator to calculate the lot size based upon risk.

    Hello,

    I’m using source Premium Data 15 min for gold, but it gives me no strategies. With the same settings I can generatie 10000’s of strategies for forex pairs… Something special with gold? Oh, and I use data horizon for last 4 years..

    Thanks,

    Maarten

    I turned off the acceptance criteria now I see more happening:

    \"\"

    But without the acceptance criteria I accepte strategies with min net prof below 10 and below 100 trades… I don’t think that’s what we want..
