2012 New Accounts
These are live personal accounts and are using a different strategy than the PAMM accounts.

All EAs are made from scratch and are my own creation.
New automated Robots will be tested here for technical and performance issues before going Live on a Real account. Accounts will be deleted after tests are concluded or issues detected.

The Power of Compounding: $10k to $1 million

Accounts held @ FXCM and FXDD were closed near the end of 2011.
The reason there is a drop on the charts on the last month is because I did remove dWaver EA and had the stupid idea of testing a new EA on the accounts (these were my personal accounts not PAMM accounts). Anyhow, lesson learned.

I was writing a simple strategy in jForex when I notice the SMA results in the strategy did not match the charts.
I was using the following code to find the SMA value:
indicators.ma(instrument,MAPERIOD,OfferSide.BID,IIndicators.AppliedPrice.CLOSE,maPeriod,IIndicators.MaType.SMA,0);
This is the results that I got on the test. As you can notice the MA-s do not cross, but yet the jForex Strategy entered a trade.
After a few hours of cracking my head, I found out why is this happening: Jforex default setting filter out all weekend flat candles (Settings -> Charts)
After changing the Flat filters “disabled”, you will see the following results, which now match with the Strategy results.
As seen on the above image, the strategy entered after the 2 MA-s crossed.
What does this mean?
This means that the simple ma function in jForex does not filter out the weekend flat candles. I will be showing how to filter out the flat candles in the jForex strategy in the next post “Filtering out Flat candles in jForex Strategy“.
