Another thing I wonder is why the Expert Advisor authors ignore the Championship conditions?
For example:
Maybe we should resume the practice of publishing codes by platform debuggers - codes (procedures) which catch these errors and recommend them for use in the championship. As it was in the first championship.
Is "you" all three already? Like a pipsqueak union? ))))
>> Renat, hello again,
What do you measure the volatility with?
And why last week the stop levels varied from 4(30%) to 8(70%)
and now after our experts were still working, since
at the beginning of this week the swing has changed to 4(5%) and 12(95%)?
Volatility is measured on the last N ticks.
It all depends on the market. On our demo server we don't always adjust to the market, but that doesn't mean it will always be that way. Spreads do not change, only the minimum indents. Besides, in our contest rules we have a strict instruction not to use pips.
In addition, there is a clear instruction in the rules of the competition not to use pips.
Sorry to intrude, but... is there a clear definition of pipsing in the rules as well?

That's right, the instruction is clear, but no one has given a clear definition of this pipsqueak... Hence the contradictions that must be solved. If we take the declared 25% of profitable deals within the spread and a decent amount of them, it will allow us to clearly define scalping within the Championship and avoid scandalous noise. These prizes are serious by today's standards... Just an outsider's thoughts.
All these cheating techniques don't work on full-fledged real accounts.
Unfortunately, if Pipsier wins, a great idea of the Championship will turn into a farce.
All these cheating tricks don't work on full-fledged real accounts.
The wonderful idea of the Championship was to show the capabilities of the MT platform for automated trading. And this idea had its logical conclusion - only a robot can trade the way Vladimir's EA, mine or Nauris' one does. It cannot be done by a human. So the goal is achieved.

Renat, can you give us a calculation of the volatility level? Does each brokerage company have its own criterion, which influences the StopLevel?
