hey, according to this thread its basically a simulation of what you'd actually do on the job. not too sure on how you'd prepare for that other than maybe come up with plans i.e. how you going to hedge or arbitrage your positions. by the way did you do the 'speed date' and 2nd round...

Well you do have to keep in mind that the results of MT4 EA doesn't always full reflect their real world payouts. For example some of the contestants are sure to tweak their EA's performance to be more aggressive since you're not actually risking any money and also that market conditions could...

I've looked on the Tibra website and there are no vacancies at the moment but was just wondering whether or not Tibra hire graduate trading roles in Hong Kong?

Hm.. From what I read about amplify, it doesn't seem like we have to enroll in some sort of course first, which we have to pay for. So for now I won't add that to the list. Had a look at STA, Futex and those seem fine. But can't seem to find the site for MET traders. Will update the list when I...

I think you misunderstood me, its just a compilation of firms that wish to hire graduates, as they generally state min. requirements 2.1 Bachelor UK Uni Degree etc.etc. Its more of a list to help other fellow graduates like myself, who will be graduating and will have to look for work.

Hi Everyone, I'm hoping to compile a list of Prop Trading firms that hire graduates in the coming year 2010, as some of these firms are not necessarily well publicized I'm thinking this could be useful for those of us (graduates) who follow this forum and wish to work in Trading. Thanks for the...

yea. i deleted it then re-created it from M1 data with the period-convertor. the odd thing is it seems that new data pops up. for example: 1. deleted all D1 data. 2. M1 data contains 2004 - 2009 EURUSD (imported from alpari files) 3. covert it to get D1 data 2004 - 2009 EURUSD. 4. then i have to...

By getting rid of it, do you mean just deleting it via the history center window? cause if so i've tried that and it still has that problem.

Hey everyone, Have a little problem on backtesting, I've been dling the data from alpari UK and then importing them into my charts then doing a period convertor before I back test. However I keep getting the mismatch error, where it says my D1 and M1 data don't match. And oddly enough whenever...

wow. very helpful EA builder. but yea I've learn the basics of MetaQuote, took a lot of time and trial and error though very satisfying to see your own EA up and running.

Hey all, Does anyone know where I can get historical data to backtest my EA. Cause I've read on forums that the MetaQuote downloadable datasets are inaccurate. I've also tried downloading the Alpari set, but the link doesn't seem to work. Thanks. SP

Found a useful little guide by coderguru for those of you trying to learn EA. Quite straightforward. thats the link I use, but its not the original version of his teachings. His teachings are on a forum somewhere, though I forgot which. Mql - Metatrader Development Course | www.metatrader.info

Hey Everyone, I've recently picked up how to write EAs and tried to write my own basic one, however I was intending to use it to look at indices such as FTSE100 and S&P500 and got the error code: ordersend error 131 I googled it up and found out about it, so ran the following code on FTSE100...

Hi Everyone, Just downloaded and installed MT4 and had a play with it. Quite interested in learning how to program my own EA, but the guides online seem quite complicated for me. Does anyone know a simple guide online to start me off? I've had very little programming experience (just a little...

Is there a beginner's guide anywhere for learning MetaTrader 4's EA? Cause i'd like to pick it up but some of the things I've read seems a bit complicated, as I only have a little experience in programming.
