Great EA in backtest! - page 75

 
Aaragorn:
I'm hoping it will limit my drawdowns mostly. With all the emphasis on probability and statistics with this EA I have to wonder how much attention it pays to the major trend? maybe this needs to be run more hands on than hands off?

I like the results but, are they considered valid with only 28% modelling?

That's the hard part.

Are you all getting more than one trade per currency each day? And if so, do you know what determines the number of trades?

Hi! What about "SymbolsCont" if i wont to treid jpy M30 H1 H4 and EUR H1 H4?

SymbolsCount affects order size only, while AutoLots=true.

if(SymbolsCount != OrdersTotal())

S = (AccountBalance() * Risk - AccountMargin()) * AccountLeverage() / (SymbolsCount - OrdersTotal());

if You want to trade 3 x jpy and 2 x eur You should set different MagicNumbers for each pair and time frame, and adjust Risk or Lots (if AutoLots=false) value. There is no need to use SymbolsCount.

I DON'T know. that's just it...

I typically see one or two trades a day from this in forward tests.

that is what the backtester does too except starting out. When the backtest starts it has made as many as 14 trades the first day. Perhaps this is what the low modeling quality reflects.

In any case there are two issues with using this live.

1- getting it launched in a way that it finds it's groove.

2- keeping the drawdown low while it learns.

perhaps this could be made with a feature that makes the first 21 or so trades at Lots=.01 before allowing the autolots to engage?

Thank you. Сan you to add an automatic calculation MagicNumber to the version 1.85f ?

1.85g is the same as 1.85f, trailing stop corrected only. so i added magicnumber autocalculation to v1.85g and renamed to v1.85g2, because we already have 1.85h.

version 1.85g2 attached
