Matt’s FOREX Expert Advisor Blog

For what it’s worth, I’ve decided to start running the MyFutureBAT AutoTrader Expert Advisor on my live account. The performance on my initial back tests was fantastic and I want to see how it does in a forward/live environment. I’m using 4 hour charts, 3% risk, no trailing with BAT, 5000 pip take profit, and the EA decides the stop loss. Those were the settings I tested and worked out very well. The pairs that I’m running are the AUD/JPY, EUR/JPY, GBP/JPY, and NZD/JPY pairs.

I know my demo testing has been on hold lately but I’ve been making good progress on EA updates and new programming of EAs. Major testing will be underway again around the first of the new year.

Perhaps by then I may have the EA data collector application/website in beta. For those who don’t know what I’m talking about… In brief it will collect trade data sent from the EAs (if specified) and collect all the information on my main server in a SQL database. From there I will program a website around the data that can be filtered in tons of ways to analyze all of the collected data contributed by anyone who chose to allow the EAs to send it. I’m extremely excited about this project as it will take all of our demo/live testing to a whole new level. The database will not only store the resulting trades but also the settings that produced those results. Then if someone wants to get a clear picture for settings on a particular EA/setup/Pair/broker it can all be done using the website. Access to that site will be free to any lifetime members. That project alone is a major undertaking from a programming aspect and will add value to an already valuable package of EAs.

Does anyone have suggestions for the new site as far as functionality goes or things you’d like to see/do with it? I welcome your feedback.

I’ve recently found myself very motivated and anxious to keep the development rolling right along. As for which EA is next? Maybe you could help me to decide. I just finished posting new threads about a bunch of trading systems I read about on ForexFactory.com at one point or another. Some still look to have potential and so I’m putting them all out there for a vote. Which new Expert Advisor would you like to see me develop next?
