Thanks for all your posts.....

Is there some magic to making it trade?....I have tried it on FXPro for a week, but with no trades being taken. I have set up other EA's, so I know it is at least set to trade. I checked my version and it is v1.0c, but FXPro is a 5 digit platform....Could that be my problem?
Oh, remember that Firebird only trades in ranging markets. If it detects a strong trend (divergence between two SMAs), it won't trade. Firebird profits by catching bounces between a MA channel - clearly this would wipe out your account during a strong trend.
