Comments Automated Trading Championship 2006

This is a contest about who can create the best EA. And an EA needs to be free of human interference.
If we run Zonker's EA for a year and compare it with some other EA on here (e.g Hendrick's EA). Zonker's EA will fail very badly.

Personally I dont even consider his EA an EA. He predicted that the EURO will go up, it wasn't just him who predicted this, almost everyone was predicting that. Zonker was smart enough to build his EA around this supposition. But is his EA any good, I dont think so.

Zonker, no offence just my view. But again, you've out foxed many, and Kudos to you my friend :).

But in this case, a win is all about out-smarting the other person and Zonker has done a very good job at that.

Good programmers are not necessary good traders and good traders are not necessary good programmers. Zonker may have an illogical EA but he predicted that the Euro will go up during the 3 months of the competition; hence, he programmed it into his EA. This demonstrate that a better trader may win the contest not a good programmer.

.. and not necessarily is he not a good programmer just because his premonition didn't fail him... so far..

Всем привет. Подскажите, пожалуйста, где можно скачать учебник по программированию и созданию советников для МТ4, желательно на русском языке. Хочу поточнее разобраться в принципе работы и используемых в коде командах.

Merabiko, Timbo,

Sorry I have never been blessed with the opportunity to learn russian. I once had a girlfriend who spoke a small amount, but the relationship was to short for me to learn anything more than a few words. These computer translations leave me guessing at the intentions of your words..

The idea I was trying to explain in my comments on your interview Merabiko was that in a competition with hundreds of entries and only three prizes you necessarily have to be brave and mad to compete. And if you accept this is true, then it stops being brave or mad, just a cold logical calculation on how to give yourself a chance of victory.

It seems I will be giving an interview this evening my time (early morning metaquotes time), perhaps I will discuss this further there. I think metaquotes want to do the interview quickly least I be back at the bottom of the table before they get to publish it. :)
