Original thread information:

This thread is dedicated to the on-going development of the DailyHighLow EA that I wrote. The idea for this EA has gone through a number of changes but originally started from the Daily95pips thread created by mikelath. Please use this thread as a place to post positive suggestions, bugs, and general discussion of the EA and it's results.

For information and discussion of the Daily95pips system please refer to this thread here...

http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=44246

Although this EA has been changed in some very extensive ways, I still feel it will do the job of the original idea behind the Daily95pips and even a lot of the new ideas from that thread.

I was asked to start my own thread and so I would like to keep this thread about the EA I've developed. I would not like to start mixing different versions of EAs written by several others. Hopefully in doing this we all stay on track and of one mind and I will implement all the ideas I can for the EA as long as they enhance the original system and remain true to where it came from. New EAs can be written for other ideas so let's keep on track for each of the ones I've developed.

This should be run on hourly charts.
I do not guarantee any results especially if you decide to change the default settings or run this in another time frame. The EA looks back by bars so if it's not on hourly chart I can't say how it will function.
It is extremely important that MT4 run all week with the charts open and EA attached. No EA can do its thing unless everything is running. That's why you have an EA to trade for you.
The EA will only run on demo accounts. I will release a live version if it pans out to be something.
I will try to post weekly updates at least of the results.
