Google Docs EA | Fx Signals 1st Mar
After an amazing week, we are now into a new week. Let me remind you that NFP is due out later in the week and so don’t get carried away, as always we need to consider the big picture.
I also mentioned in my previous post that we are now trading CHFJPY as well, GBPUSD on the other hand in the “Sin Bin” and we will trade is cautiously.
Eng Guan has created this great EA which takes trade entries from Google shared Docs. He is looking for people who can update this spreadsheet at regular intervals. You can download it here: <removed > . Please use this post to ask any questions that you may have regarding the Expert Advisor.

That's right. I did send a correction straight after that.
Hi, This is Guan, the creator of the Google EA.
Since this is the first week of the EA going live, there will be some things that needs to work on, especially for the updating of the signal. I know I had already miss Signal 5 – 7. As more people come aboard, hopefully this can be solved.
I am currently working to improve the EA (v8) by adding some features:
1. Add support for CHFJPY
2. If the EA is late in getting the signal and the price had already go past Buystop/sellstop level, the EA will still be able to open the orders (either buy or sell instead of buystop and sellstop) if it is still within a user-defined range. This way, you can still get into the trade if you are a bit late.
you are doing a top job, thx
Guan, this is worderfull effort by you. Many thanks. Do you think we can request Firepips to fill in the spread sheet? this way all the signals will be entered on time and correctly. ( from the horses's month, so to speak)
Guan has already been pestering me to update the spreadsheet
I am not ready for it yet…I'll keep you posted.
Hi, this is Guan.
Please don't say pestering. Make me feel so bad about myself.
Of course, it would be great for FirePips to update but considering that he had to do so many things, that's why I resort to the Google Document method where everyone can update it. If there are enough people who are updating the spreadsheet, it would almost be as timely.
Just some update on Signal 6 and 7: As I was late in entering into the spreadsheet, those using the EA will see pending orders instead of sell as it happen when the price goes into retracement. Thus, you can delete them manually if you want.
btw, I had finished version 8 where the 2 mentioned features had been added. If you want to test them, you can drop me a mail
I take that back Guan
By the way I've received your updated version and I'll upload it as soon as I can.
just FYI.. received no email on initial entries. Received correction ok. Couldnt find initial signals on blog page or on facebook. Found signals on Twitter from HootSuite? .. and now found them here by accident. Is this the new "signals page for the site? Im a bit confused.. Perhaps only me? or perhaps others? Again..just FYI…Many thanks
Once I send the signals via usual means, I then write up a post like this one. There can be some delay, if you have any questions in the meantime then you can always post them on FB and TW.
Hi Fire,
Thanks for the signals! I have been following them over the past week or so. Congrats on last week.
Those buy orders today have kicked in fast!
Good to hear my friend
What is the url where the doc exists?
Contact the email in the instruction file
Hi, just joined and today's signals are the 1st I am testing. So far looks good. My question is, I was late in opening my e-mail and by that time the pairs had almost been hitting the 1st targets. Is it advisable to still get in and if so what sort of entry points should I be looking for i.e. how much of a pull back I should be waiting for? Thx
If the first Profit Target is reached then I recommend you wait for a new signals. If the price get close but then retrieves back to entry point then you can enter the trade.
1st targets?
Posted now !
hi firepips can you do a tally up for the pip amount for febuary please
Sure…some people have already posted that here on the blog
can i ask if GU is in the 'sin bin' why you would place a signal for GJ ? it has just been closed out at a loss, not unexpectedly.
GBPJPY has not performed as bad as GBPUSD. I still like to keep trading it as usual.
did you just delete my post about GJ ? do you only allow uncritical posts?
Hi Darren, Feel free to post anything. I rarely delete any comments here.
Does the Broker NightMare package you offer allow for the direct order entry from your FirePips emails?
I don't think it reads signals from emails.
Hi,
today I received just the first e-mail (06.00 GMT), no correction and no second e-mail. That unfortuately led to a net loss of of 647 pips so far, not a good start of the week to say the least.
I know the point has been brought up before, but in days like this it would be great if you could share your strategy. Had I known the system rules, I could have probably taken the profitable short on the EUR/USD even without the e-mail confirmation and also I possibly could have reduced the losses on the GBP/JPY position.
As far as you are concerned, disclosing your strategy could possibly lead to positive feedback and improvement of the system itself. I do not see any disadvantages there.
Events like today's make me realize that in the long run I would not be able to just trade on these signals blindly, without knowing why I'm doing what I'm doing…it's too risky and it just does not suit me.
At the same time I want to thank you Firepips for the time and effort you have put into your work and for sharing your signals.
Regards
i would second that, i watched from a distance last week and saw how well you did, then dived in this week and i'm down $350 (which is a lot for me) already, including the EU profit. would be nice to see some disclosure of profit/loss each week, not just on the good weeks. you seem a pretty open guy so I don't see why you would object to this.
it's very frustrating for me as i seem to jump in at exactly the wrong time. not sure if i should continue following and try to dig myself out, if i saw some kind of track record this would be easier to decide. i know you're providing a free service so it's really up to you.
If you are following proper money management then $350 should not be more than a few % of your available funds. if not then reduce your lots size or don't do all 3. days like this can/will wipe you out if you are not money managing.
Hi Darren,
Days like these does and can happen from time to time. As mark said if you are following right money management then it should not cause a big dent in your account.
HI Enrico,
All emails were send as usual and I do not see errors in the logs. I can't really say why that would happen. Please continue to monitor blog and other places to keep track.
Thanks for checking that FP
BIG loss on almost every jpy trade :'(
cadjpy still alive but negative and eurusd triggered & reached 1st profit.
bad week start
its all very well to follow 'price action' as a strategy, but how do you handle false breakouts like today? all the longs got triggered and then GU plummeted.. as you had no doubt feared.
no one seems to be doing any of their own analysis on this page, it's a bit of a concern..
personnaly i haven’t got the fund to blind trade so i’m using firepip advises as north/sound indicator
look like jpy was not worthy with his method, eurusd was 1.3625 seeking 1.37 resistance so i entered eurjpy near top of small initial uptrend then it badly reversed & I closed @ approx -100pips
fp’s gbpjpy trade seems more controversial as consensus was gbp will fall against all other currencies.
Can't do much when it happens. I continue to trade as usual and don't let it effect me.
I’ve been watching this site for a few weeks and I’ve got a couple of observations
-I think anyone who strays into the forex market by blindly following advice from the internet shouldn’t be too surprised to see some loses
-Not every trade is going to be a winner, it’s a game of averages, if you looked at last weeks gains and thought gee I’ll jump in and make that money this week probably needs the reality check they are getting
-You should have your own reasons for entering a trade, what happens if one day this site stops giving out free advise, what will you do then, look to the internet for more free singnals?
-Just because you have a loss doesn’t mean that firepips should reveal his strategy, you took the signals at face value so you really have to accept them at face value
-On a more positive note, if you really believe in the signals hang in there, some weeks aren’t going to go your way but as long as overall you’re up then it’s worth riding out the bad weeks.
KingKong, that is some really good advice. Thumbs up !
I agree with you on almost all counts Kingkong but I don't see any real downside for neither Firepips or us if the systems details are disclosed. If anyything I think it would benefit all
Well FP is trying to create a community of traders and I would imagine it's crossed his mind that if he hands out his strategy for free in great detail then all his little disciples will run off to make it on their own, now that might be right or wrong but if I was FP i'd do the same, knowledge is power..
Be honest, if he told you exactly what he did and how he did it, would you come back here and add to the blog etc? Why would you? You might check now and again to make sure you’re still getting things right but ultimately you’d realise you didn’t need to visit the site
Point taken. Yet, in answer to your question, I would definitely come back here and contribute to the blog if the strategy were disclosed. That would give me an opportunity to test the system on my own and possibly add something of value to it. Like me, I'm sure many other traders would like to contribute in a similar fashion. To be honest I thought that was the whole point of us being here in the first place, we are not paying after all are we? So, once again, where is the downside
My yahoo mail always get teh signal late, but the hotmail gets it straight away.
with regards to the Guan-FirePips EA, what if someone enters the incorrect values on hte central spread sheet. everyone will get an incorrect fill?
Hi, this is Guan.
WHat I am trying to do is to make the signal as automated as possible.
You are correct. If someone enter incorrect value, the EA will get an incorrect fill.
I know the EA is not perfect
Yahoo get delayed signal
but hotmail gets it straight away
FP- Queastion… with regards to Guan-FirePips EA, what if someone enters incorrect values on the central spread sheet, everyone will get an incorect fill? No?
yeah, that's one disadvantage of this method. I wonder if Guan can add an feature to manually authorize trades before they are entered into MT4.
Hi, in the MT4, there is an option to ask for manual confirmation.
However, that would mean that you will have to be there in front of your computer for every signal.
Hello Fire pips..Thx for the signals…Not very good day huh… Quick trade…BTW, in the future…Will you managed people money??? Like account manager??? Thank u again
It is my long term goal, I don't think I am ready for it yet. I want to travel and start a family before I delve into it. Some says I should do the other way round
. FirePips is doing a great job, but he cant teach the pepole money management, its not fair to press FirePips to reveal his strategy, start with less,
Salim,
if you are referring to my post : 1) I manage my money fairly well, but FP could teach people in general a thing or two about money management. He does already to some extent as this blog has already served that purpose to some extent
2)Nobody's pressing anyone to do anything, I certainly cannot and would not
3)If you were referring to my posts, I explained briefly why I think it's to everyone's advantage, including FP's, to disclose the details of the system that he's using and from previous posts I believe FP is already thinking about doing that anyway.
4) Please read again what I said and explain to me what's unfair
Thanks and regards
HI Enrico, i was not referring to you specifically, but i was reading that from few days. let me tell you a little bit about myse lf before expalining further. i have been doing forex from almost two years and consistenly making profit atleast 80 percent of my account every month. first five months were struggle, then i study hard, study atleast 20 books,kept trading journal, __improve my strategy, infact its called price action, and you have to show alot of your commitment on your part if you are serious aboout forex, he cant teach that, you have to do it by yourself, i know that for sure. you have to devlelop your own sytstem if you want to pursure a career in forex, when i trade some time i look at Firepips signal as well but not blindly, i do but what feel i need to do based on my analysis and other reviews like firepip etc. how come he can teach the peopple he already giving free singals it will be another task for him to do , its too much for him. updating website, etc every 4 hours. i dont know how he manage that.
Hey Salim,
80% monthly return on equity? do I understand that correctly? that would be nothing short of phenomenal! in any case, hats off to you for your efforts and results, well done and keep up the excellent work…it would be nice to learn more about how you trade.
I still stand with what I said before about discussing the system in detail though. To me that has nothing to do with not working hard or not finding your own way.
Thanks for your reply
$1 with 80% gain for 24 months straight gives, oh, some $133 million. You sure those numbers are right?
Hi, this is Guan the creator of the EA.
Since this is the first week of EA going live, for those using the EA (if any) there will be some trade that get missed out. If it is missed and the Order (like signal 5) get filled, we will have to just forgo the signal. Hopefully, with more people on board, we can resolve this problem.
I am currently working to add more featurs to the EA:
1. Add support for CHFJPY
2. The 2nd features is to address the shortfall as highlighted above. If the signal is late and the price get filled, there is still a option to get into the trade with Buy/Sell orders instead of pending orders (buystop/sellstop) if the price is within a user-defined range.
Your 1AM update says that the EURUSD short hit the 3rd profit target while my platform only shows a low of 3461, which means the target was missed by 1 pip. How can it be that your target got filled? Does anyone else have this issue or is it just me? Thanks.
Sorry, I meant the 1PM EST update.
Me too
I closed now for "only" 33 pips of gain
Yes, this is very upsetting as something like this has a significant effect on performance, especially in light of the big losses earlier today. I hope to hear from Firepips on this one as I'm sure plenty of other users also did not get filled.
It's not FirePips fault for this type of stuff…
He use a ECN brokers and I think that his order was execute
Not at all saying it's his fault. However, if his ECN did indeed fill his order, where does that leave us folks without an ECN broker?
I believe FirePips discusses this somewhere in the FAQ, haven't read for a while so I can't recall where exactly. But he did say somewhere that if you are on a MM broker, you really need to adjust your targets a few pips. On FXDD (MM), I set my stops 3 pips farther than FirePips calls, and my targets 3 pips less. In the long run it will be a little less profit and a little more loss, but not by much — AND with no commissions to pay, it is an even smaller difference.
And missing a 120 pip target and taking break-even or 33 pips instead I would think to be even more costly.
On MBTrading (ECN), I use 1 pip more on stop loss and 1 pip less on each target.
Just what I do, but I find it works.
I see what you're saying, but my spread for Euro is usually 1 pip or less, so this really shouldn't be a problem and it never has been in the past. ECN or no ECN, price did not poke through 3460. Fortunately, I'm thinking that this is a rather low probability event. Regardless, I'll make a note of what you said. Thanks for your reply.
Well of course the other thing is that each broker will vary price by a pip or two much of the time. On FXDD it touched 1.3460. On InterbankFX it touched 1.3459. On MBTrading it only got to 1.34604, never quite touching 1.3460. These are all live accounts.
In addition, some brokers use more than one server. With MBTrading, for example, two of our accounts are served on two different servers. And while they insist this never happens, we have had it happen where one reaches a particular point, and the other doesn't quite touch it.
And of course these are all bid prices, since a short is closed at the ask price, you still have the spread to deal with.
And further, liquidity varies from moment to moment. On an ECN, even if price trades below your target for an instant, and you had a close order already in, it will not necessarily fill thei nstant it touches, and if price backs away again on the next tick, I've seen where the close order never gets triggered. At least on an ECN, if it gets triggered, you may get slipped, but at least you get filled.
It's not as low a probability as one would think. In fact, just in the month I've been here on Firepips' site, I've seen this happen 5 times, three missed targets that never came back, and two hit stoplosses that Firepips survived by a pip or two. .
All of these things I try to solve by adding 1-3 pips. Incidentally, on that EURUSD trade, my FXDD filled, my MBTrading would still have missed it by about 1/2 a pip if I'd had this trade going there.
Because of that, I am going back to adding 2-3 pips for ECN, and 4-5 for MM.
Indy, I imagine you knew all of this already, but some newbies will come through here who don't know, and so this explanation was in order.
I hope it is helpful -
Thanks DietPipsi, you are spot on
Hongkong..
you sound as if, like me, that you do this professionally. All points in your post agreed.
FirePips Thanks for your answer to my earlier post..However Im abandoning the live system test started this morning, for now, for three reasons. Hope the input is helpful.
1. My perception (right or wrong) is that the signal delivery systems are all over the place.This morning we couldnt find the signals. Then we found a correction. and when a new signal was issued off-schedule we missed it.because of lack of a simple alert system. Facebook? Twitter? Blogs? IntenseDebate? IMHO all these designed for other purposes. and WAY too complicated.
KISS is the only strategy for reliable signal distribution.
2.The management EA (a great bit of work nonetheless) has not proved reliable for us in live operation. We have had a series of execution problems including unexplained position closures, which detailed examination of the logs has not solved. Maybe caused by temporary disconnection or bad tics? however I cant use automation thats not bulletproofed against such glitches on live accounts. Further the EA does not appear to place server orders when initialised… nor are the entries spread adjusted. I can see no reason why not..they are simple oCOs..there is no hedging involved.
3. This mornings spread of trades went wrong. No big deal. Its an interesting system and Im sure the week/month will end positively. Trading without loss is like religion without sin LoL. However, this morning, it appears in retrospect that the spread of pairs had an unhealthy level of correlation for basket trading. This is like trading swissy short and euro long. Yes sometimes a wise move.. but only if you split your single lot exposure between the pairs. Otherwise what you THINK is only 2-3% exposure per trade turns into an effective 4-6% exposure. With this mornings basket.. it was over 10%. When baskets are being used perhaps some correlation warning on potential cumulative exposure is necessary for sound money management.
Anyway.. enough.. Congratulations Firepips on a very interesting system. and on the huge effort youve put behind getting it out there. I will return to test it live again soon, particularly if you get yourself some simple dedicated desktop signal delivery alert software.. (something like GetTrenz use) . Ive not looked at the new EA, but sounds interesting. Something like GFSignals EA? + a demo MTStats account?. Whatever..theres no doubt that speed simplicity of delivery, and ease of automated entry/execution for users are the key challenges now to bringing your system to industry standard.
Best of luck.
1. I used the twitter feed and things were perfectly fine on my end. I get tweets sent to my desktop via TweetDeck or something similar.
3. Great point. For instance, having 3 Yen cross longs (EJ, CJ, GJ, etc.) is roughly equivalent to having an over-sized 3x position on a single pair. This is very important and ought to be kept in mind when taking these trades. You are basically indirectly leveraging up your trades by doing this, and thus pushing your risk at the end of the day.
Overall, Firepips is doing a phenomenal job despite a few issues and I personally hope he will continue to keep 'em coming.
Hi Ed, You have some valid points.
1. I wish there could be just one way of delivering signals. But any one method would have some shortcomings and won't fit everyone needs.
2. EAs are work in progress and I do not suggest to trade on live account until they are fully ready.
3. You are right about the increased exposure when trading currencies in the same basket. However not all currency pairs in one basket moves the same way. So by trading few of them we can maximize the profits if they move in our favor. If we rely on only pair in one basket then we are just limiting ourselves to its own outcome.
In my opinion one should not risk more than 1% per trade ( 3 lots ) regardless of any currency pair.
RE: PROBLEMS WITH INCONSISTENCY IN GETTING THE CALLS ON THE BLOG OR BY EMAIL
When I first signed up for these calls, I got them by email perfectly the first few times. But by the second day of following Firepips' calls, a new bar came up and I got no email. I checked the blog and found there that some candles had the signals and some that didn't. I went to the Facebook and found I needed to open an account, which I didn't want to do if I didn't have to, and then went to the Twitter.
On the Twitter, I found that on every candle, the first few orders are updated always there, in real time, just 3 or 4 minutes into the candle. The next order or two within another minute or two, and the last ones within about 7-8 minutes.
I THEREFORE CONCLUDED that I think Twitter is the first place Firepips is putting them, and then compiling and sending emails after and doing blog updates after. Since I too was not getting them all in the emails, I just quit checking the email, and started checking the Twitter first.
And I have never been disappointed.
I hope this is helpful for some who are wanting to get the calls regularly but having some consistency issues. We know exactly which hours there will be a new candle. At that hour I just go to the Twitter feed at about 4 minutes after, and they are always there.
Hopefully helpful
BIG , BIG , BIGGEST. SMALL STRATEGY, BIG MONEY. MR. FIREPIPS IS THE BEST.
MY THIRD PROFIT IN EUR-USD. PUFF.. I CLOSE ON BREAKEVEN, BUT, AFTER, I SAW THE DUKASCOPY´S PAGE, AND I SAW THEIR CHART. THE PRICE TOUCH 1,3460 !!!!
MY TAKE PROFIT WAS 1,3465, BUT MY BROKER ( INSTATRADER) ONLY WENT UNTIL 1,3463, FOR ONE PIP (OF SPREAD), I CLOSE ON BREAKEVEN
I DON´T HAVE 5000$ FOR A DUKASCOPY ACCOUNT.
ANYBODY KNOW A ECN, THAT I CAN OPEN A ACCOUNT FOR 500$????
THANKS FOR ALL MR FIRE.
That's the problem with most ECN, they usually require higher opening balance. Later today I'll post a comparison between ECN and MM Brokers
MBTrading is an ECN broker, and they do have live MetaTrader accounts. Unless they ahve changed that in the last few months, I've had mine almost a year now. And we do often see less than one pip spread on EURUSD with MBTrading.
ok, I will see it, thanks
Thanks for your reply mate. I usually write up signals on MS OneNote, then I copy them in the email software and schedule to send them pretty much as soon as new candle comes out.
Since the email list has grown quite significantly, it may take couple of minutes before all emails are send. Though I couldn't find the real issue why some people don't receive emails at all. I am looking at alternatives at this stage.
After setting up emails, I then copy them one by one on Twitter and FaceBook. Then I post them on Blog and update the newly created table.
I recommend not to rely on one means, always double check.
i have a problem with the script, i have install it correctly but when i want to use it, either click or drag it to the chart this message pop out
“ERROR #4107: invalid price parameter for trade function”
how can i solve this problem, tq. i already use the Diet Pipsi and felipe OCO but still the same problem..
Hi Guan,
Is your EA ready for usage now? Are there anybody who registered to enter Firepips' trade signals ?
Thanks for your advice
Regards,
James
Hi,
There are a few who have kindly volunteer to input into the spreadsheet.
So far, for me, it is working as long as the entry of data into the spreadsheet is timely and the time interval you set for the synchronisation with the google document is not too long.
Any feedback from users of the EA?
Guan Expert Advisor v8 now been uploaded. Use existing links to download it.
Thanks FirePips
FYI:
I found a problem in the EA code. The line:
WinExec(AppAddress+" -mode=backup -username=firepipsea -password=firepips -destDir="+Destination+"-docF=pdf -sprsF=csv -presF=ppt",0);
(Notice no space after destination [Destination+"-docF])
Should be changed to:
WinExec(AppAddress+" -mode=backup -username=firepipsea -password=firepips -destDir="+Destination+" -docF=pdf -sprsF=csv -presF=ppt",0);
(notice the space between …Destination+" -docF…)
Without that the EA cannot download the orders.csv. If you don't want to edit the code, enter a space character after the Destination directory parameter.
-tom
Hi tomg1970,
thanks.
Really need these as I am coding at night after work and may have made some mistakes here and there.
I deliberately left no space after destination because I have already crater for a space in the Destination
Note:
extern string Destination="c:Progra~1Interb~1expertsfiles " (there is a space after the and before the quotation). This is due to some coding issue that necessiate a space after the and before the quotation.
However, you are right in say that in the EA window in MT4, there should be a space after the in order for the EA to function.
Thanks for helping to go through and de-bug the EA
Hi.
Oops- I removed that crater when I changed the parameters.
Thanks… tom
Hi Liaueng , Hi Firepips,
I have programmed a raw code for an EA that imports the Orders directly from the Twitter Page (no need for google updates or else) its based on the wininet.dll, here's the link, its working, but it still needs to be completed with the Order from file extracting functions:
http://codebase.mql4.com/6485
BaronJ
Hi BaronJ,
Saw your code. Nice to grab from Twitter. One suggestion is you may want to grab from his RSS feed in twitter. Maybe it would be better
However, the challenge, at least for me, is to convert all those wordings into code that can put in new orders and adjust stoploss for current orders.
Hope that you do well in your exam and are able to return and complete the EA
okay no problem. I use your code for open the link (http://twitter.com/FirePips )
I don't store anything , I read directly and process all the signal.
I have checked right now and for use of (http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/1722930… I have to change a little because the format of date time is different. but for monday is checked.
A question : the link for RSS feed is always the same?
Nice one.
I had also create a EA that grab signal from Twitter and so far it is working fine, able to put in new orders, adjust stoploss for existing order and canceling order.
Maybe we can compare notes

To all using the Google EA, please discontinue to use it for a while.
For those who understand the code, the password to the email is embedded inside the EA and some kind soul had cautioned me about it.
As I had changed the password, the GDocBackupCMD is now unable to download the Orders.csv file. I will be coming out with a fix which will solve this problem. Until then, please refrain from using the EA. Thanks
No Problem mate…Keep us posted
yes please keep us posted. actually, eng guan: i may have a solution. please contact me at snyps3@gmail.com
Hi I loaded the EA a couple of weeks back but my broker uses 5 digits, the EA does not recognise the prices. Have you adjusted the script, i have looked but not seen anything on it? I live in Oz so this EA if i can get it to work would be just great. Can you help?
Thanks Peter
firepips,
this thread is confusing…is it in order by time, date, latest post or what? the timing is everywhere. is it not chronological?
