High Profit Strategy: from 10k to 1 million in one year - page 4

Hi 23510

Perhaps it lost so there was no money to pay for internet connection to post results.

LOL!!! good call! :)

 

In your EA you are opening always 4 position simultanously and they are also closed simultanously. Could you explain why. To me it seams the same as if you open just one position.


Besides to analyze performance of EA it is much more useful to provide report with constant lot size not increased witth the acoount size preferably 0.1 lot in this case amount of mony on your account will be exactly the same as number of pips gained.


Could you rerun your backtest and provide report with 0.1 constant lot size.

 

I hope this doesn't need to be restated for most but here goes: If the drawdown is high, like it is in this system it is unlikely that similar results will be achieved if you shift the start time a few weeks forward or backward. I can turn 2K into $30,000,000 in a month by using the optimizer, but if I shift the start date the EA loses money. For a viable system profit factor should be high (>3), expected payoff should be high for your lot size and drawdown should be low (<10%)...

Looks pretty good! Is it a commercial EA?
 

How about 10K to 32M in 7 months. :)

If you are replying to me, it isn't a commerical EA... just something I'm working on. Exploiting genetic algorithms inside of EA's and using a preset series of steps with MT's genetic algorithm in the optimizer with an EA that is meant for GA optimization. So far so good...

Here's more on what I'm working on: http://arachnode.net/blogs/arachnode_net/archive/2009/06/13/automatic-optimization-of-forex-indicators.aspx

I believe the idea is not good. How can anybody stay away from volatility or even follow a trend?

Volatility comes and goes whenever it wants to. Trends break down whenever it wants to.

So what approach do you know to be a good, creditable, consistent, safe, reliable and profitable trading algorithm system that preferably already is already made into an EA?

Or at least can be coded into an EA?

Obviously, any such successful system must contain an effective method of minimizing and controlling losses.
