Hi all - does anyone have a link to a detailed discussion of the Moving Average EA which comes installed as default with MT4? Or does anyone have experience of using it? I seem to have tripped over some parameters which are working for me over the past few days but there are a couple of big...

Got shot down in flames on the other thread for saying positive things about this EA, so have transferred most of my commentary to more appropriate fora. However, would just like to confirm the ODL thing from personal experience. My account got frozen after just one night of trading with...

Good experience so far with Alpari UK and good account opening experience with FXPro (in Cyprus). Horrible short-lived experience with ODL UK when they decided overnight that they didn't like a particular EA and unilaterally closed around 120 accounts without even the courtesy of a phone call...

$100 account funding FXDD was giving $100 on opening of new accounts before Christmas, with no need to fund with any of your own money. Needless to say their customer services are a little overstretched just now (but I did get my account opened and there is $100 showing in the trading funds).

Capital Spreads seem to be supplying the Tradefair service under a white labelling arrangement with Betfair, but I always have had the impression that they don't try too hard for their BF customers.

Here's one suggested approach in these volatile times. Buy the cheapest, most out of the money options you can find on both sides of your market, eg buy 3300 ftse puts and buy 5000 ftse calls. Don't spend more than about £10 an option and don't commit much of your bank. If you have at least a...

EATrader - if you're still watching. You were right, it isn't worth trying to pass on good news via this means. Resist the temptation to jump back in. I'm done on this thread. Icho - statements should be in your inbox. Pls use with discretion as sent from work!

Definitely no offence taken, as your previous post preceded my first one. Will watch for your email, cheers.

Sorry - the serious reply now. Not looking at the chart, just the results. The first night's performance was dragged down by open losses on the long-term strat, so I just canned it (told you I have no patience). The scalper bit appealed to me because it implemented something I had been...

Yep. It's just you.

IP check me all you like. As I'm sneaking a look at this from work, it should trace back to a semi-respected accountancy firm! Whereas if I reply to anyone from my personal mail account above, it will be from my home/virgin broadband.

Here's another rookie joining in the fray (but with an earlier sign-up date). My results are pretty much in line with other purchasers. I quickly switched off the long-term side of the EA (which only trades eurusd) and have had the scalper bit running for a week on a tiny account of £100...
