This sentence is not clear to me. (the "trailed from the close" part) Anyone has an idea?

Thank you, luqmanz, for the insight about Kelly formula, as after using the random portfolio simulator ( url ) the number it gave me seemed to be a very high number indeed (60%).

Why professionals "only" make ~30% anually

I think I found the possible reason for all the weird openings as I usually change timeframes a lot. I added another version with the timeframe forced to H1 (PERIOD_H1)

Didn't notice it had to be in live... voted for a few but on live I trade usually only the pound/dollar and sometimes eur/usd. As to carry trades, one very interesting option I discovered (for those who use NF or any other broker that has this ...

The Pairs that You Trade

It is still under examination... I made a version which would only open the positions and not managing close nor trailings (would have to be set manually) the problem is that then it keeps on opening trades one after another every hour if the ...

I would use the November 2005 low. I get 1.9240 as 23.6% retracement of that range: 28.11.2005 - 1.7050 23.1.2007 - 1.9913 I would also look at a shorter time range: 11.10.2006 - 1.8515 23.1.2007 - 1.9913 50% is 1.9214 on my charts.

Where would 'your' low be for the Fibo?

I have modified the settings of your EA of iHigh (sell) and iLow (buy) to iOpen for both, as the rule stated to open the position at the candle open price. I also changed the TP to 300 (was 160) and the stoploss to 50 (was at 500). I have both your ...

Beautiful indeed. And the HPF and LPF MAs match almost perfectly my setting of levels to +13 and -13 which I had added to the original SMA21 for filtering! Thank you so much!

It offsets a little (0 to 15 pips, averaging 5-6 pips offset). I guess the 21SMA is in reality intended to show the monthly average on a daily chart... as a month has around 21 trading days (except on charts like Oanda's that show saturday and ...

Those times are correct, and switch to be 9am, 1pm and 5pm EST under DST (Daylight Saving Time).

4 Hour Strategy (MACD)

Another idea to set up all the SMA levels in one indicator, instead of using the High and Low apart, is to add two levels to the original SMA21-Close, one at 10 the other one at -10. which more or less correspond to the previous High and Low 21SMAs.

I don't know if it is correct but it seems to be in my charts: just multiply the value by the amount of smaller timeframes inside the original timeframe: 24 on daily is 144 on H4, and 576 on hourly. .

The following can be better visualized by setting the three SMA21 (applied to high, close and low) which makes sort of a "tunnel" on the chart and also corresponds roughly to the +2 -2 pips rule mentioned by Fun Trader. I added shift -2 to High ...

Nice filter, on my backtesting it filters out 50% (4 out of 8) of the losing or not so much performing trades listed (I couldn't edit my post, the ratio is 19 to 8 so should read 70,37% pp. instead of 66,67%). Thanks so much for the tip

I backtested GBP/USD@H1 for January from 02.01 to 26.01, taking all the signals given without any other filter, and considering a 50 pips stoploss, in two versions: watching and closing manually at next SMA cross (or discretionary), and with 50 pips ...

An .ex4 file is the same as a .mq4 file but compiled. If an EA, like in this case, just copy it inside the Metatrader "experts" folder, open the platform, and use it as any other Expert Advisor. (If an indicator, it would have to be copied to the ...
