Experts: VFX London Breakout - page 4

 
Hello Vinicius, I am using with good results your VFX London Breakout by a couple of weeks, with recommended pm setting.

I have a curiosity. I observe that the trade are often long, they can be closed in the following days. I'm wondering if in your optimization you have detected also a good set of parameters for a shorter trading, to close in few hours

I look forward your kind reply

Hi Vinicius,

I'am making an extensive test of the ea wich is very interesting

is it correct that the ea put more than one order on a cross in the same day? I had more that one stop loss in the same day

probably this is the reason why the test i did on the breakeven / trailing version give erratic results

is it possible to limit to one trade a day for a cross?

thanks

Hi ericholzer

 

 - This version can open only one long position and one short position per day;

 - Now you can set the Trading Time in the London session (in the previous version this value was fixed in five hours);

 - Added the Bars To Close Positions parameter. The position is closed after a certain number of bars of the current timeframe. If you do not want to use this option, set 0 (zero).

 

I hope it's useful.


Kind regards.

Hello David,

 

I have not detected it yet, but I'm still testing new settings.

I'm glad the EA is being helpful to you.

 

Kind regards.

Nice EA!

H‌ow do you deal with the daylight saving time? is that automatically managed in the EA?

Many brokers use EET (Eastern European Time), which corresponds to UTC + 2, but in summer, due to daylight saving time, this time changes to UTC + 3. That is, when the time of the London session changes (DST), it also changes the broker's time. Therefore, it is not necessary to change the EA time setting.

But if the broker does not change the time during daylight saving time, it is necessary to make this adjustment manually in the EA parameters, okay?

Thank you!‌

Makes perfect sense, thank you
 

Hi Vinicius,

I belive that something important missing in this bot - a trailing function ;) and that would increase the performance i think. Well give it a thought :)

 

Hi Vinicius,

I have downloaded your EA but in tester gives no result?

How I plot the pairs sets, in what folder?

H‌i janwan,

You can download the setting files (.set) to the Terminal > tester folder or to the Terminal > MQL4 > Presets folder.


If the EA does not open positions during the backtest, please see the message that appears on the Journal tab and let me know.

Kind regards.
