Does TS overide TP?

Hello, does TS override TP. See my setting below, I have a TP set at +14 but had a trade close +35 pips (E_DelayTS=35). Not that I'm complaining I'm just trying to figure out these settings. What option controls MaxOpenOrders? Don't want it to open 100 orders all of a sudden.

Hi, is this - The Ultimate Guide for Phoenix V3.doc - the latest manual for Phoenix?

Thanks

 

testing USDJPY with v 5.7.4

which MODE is your favorite for this cross?

 

Hello

When using U_Mode: 3

are we able to use Breakevenafter pips ?

Do we need to load any indicators on the 15min chart? If so can someone attach one to their post...

Thanks

I assume you are using using 5.7.4.

Breakevenafter pips - is only for mode 1.

Read the documentation - it will make it a lot easier.

The 5.7.4 documentation is located here.

Mode 1 is the best mode, no matter what the currency.

Mode 2 - don't go there.

Mode 3 can make money, even if it doesn't work exactly as intended.

The 5.7.4 documentation is located here.

I haven't been around for a while, and I don't know if the documentation has been written for P6.

 

574 questions

Hello !

I have some questions regarding 574.

I have been backtesting and live testing 574.

#1 Timeframe: M30

#2 Broker: Alpari

#3 Settings file: optimized for Jan01 2007 to Sep01 2007

#4 Account: Demo

#5 Version: 5.7.4

#6 Phoenix mode: 3

#7 Cur : USD/JPY

1. After running several hours there is no trade entered. Is this because of the setting ?

2. Is the function to detect if the market is trending or ranging implemented ?

If so how is it be activated ?

3. Is the function to avoid trending market implemented ?

4. Is the function to avoid specific time frame, f.e. news event, implemented ? If so how is it activated ?

 

1. After running several hours there is no trade entered. Is this because of the setting ?

If you look at your backtesting results you may see that sometimes there can be a lot of time between trades. When you do live testing this can be really obvious.

You have set U_PrefSettings to false which means you need to setup the settings file all on your own, you can't take advantage of optimized settings from the past that other's found worked well. While those may not be great settings in todays market, they work better if you don't know how to optimize the signals yourself.

Different FX Brokers sometimes give different trades. FXDD is the Broker that most Phoenix Traders are using. Starting your EA at a time that differs by just minutes can lead to a different trading pattern.

2. Is the function to detect if the market is trending or ranging implemented ?

If so how is it be activated ?

First part No.

Second part. It is a counter trending system, this is covered in the documentation, with a good explanation.

3. Is the function to avoid trending market implemented ?

It is a counter trending system, this is covered in the documentation.

4. Is the function to avoid specific time frame, f.e. news event, implemented ? If so how is it activated ?

Function to avoid certain timeframes is implement. In Signal 5 you can choose when you want to trade. Documentation gives the details.

Avoiding news is not coded. Although if you know when the news is coming out you can use Signal 5 to stop the EA from trading, at a certain time but I don't think it will get you out of any existing trades.
