Sure. I have uploaded version 1.50 which has a configurable MagicNumber input parameter. Thanks for the suggestion. Not sure I fully understand what you are trying to do. If you are at exactly 60 pip profit, what should happen? Should the EA then ...

Thank you for the suggestion. The 217-page read, and even post #1 is rather intimidating. Quickly skimming over that thread, it looked like it needed a lot of discretion and manual judgement, or am I wrong? Obviously, only a strategy with clear ...

MT4-EA, duplicating the current input parameters in 28-fold will make the EA extremely complex to use. I appreciate the convenience of having all pairs in one EA and being able to simply run the backtester once and see the equity curve of the ...

I have uploaded version 1.45 that does stricter input validation to avoid problems during Optimizer runs. Please give that a try! To reduce the lead-in time needed before the first trade is made, I enable trading already when have encountered only ...

Sorry to hear you are having problems with the EA. My guess is that the optimizer created an invalid combination of input parameters. Specifically, I assume this error occurs when: BarSelection = SelectPercentile NrBarsLookback = 0 In that ...

Just stumbled upon this thread. It ended rather abruptly 3 years ago... Would be nice to see the performance of the mined strategies in a live market over the last 3 years. Googling gives numerous blogs describing methodologies for mining strategies ...

Systematic Portfolio Diversification - Data Mining Concept

But they are the same?! When we are about to open our first trade of the day, Balance = Equity. They are exactly the same number. There is no difference. What use is a pull down menu to choose between equity or balance? Sorry, I must be overlooking ...

DOSI: Daily Open Strategy Improved

I see. You want to make the first trade of each progression yourself, and have the EA take over and do the second, third, etc. if price moves against you. An EA can indeed do this, but I personally find it difficult to create an EA that will take ...

DOS. Daily Open Strategy. Easy To Trade, Simple To Win (EA..soon)

Sorry, I still don't understand your question. At midnight before we open the first trade the equity and balance are the same. The MaxDrawdownPercent is a safety mechanism to close all open trades (at a huge loss) when the drawdown is too large. ...

I have added the MovingAverageCross entry strategy to version 1.40. First experiments seem to reduce drawdown quite a lot: image Thank you for this excellent suggestion!

DOSI: Daily Open Strategy Improved

Good. The original strategy is already covered in this yzDosi EA too. You can specify the MaxSpreadPips and EntryDelayMinutes to wait until the spread is low, and avoid the first few minutes after midnight when brokers might be doing maintenance and ...

Guys, I am a bit worried about the entry strategy. In version 1.35 I have added a EntryStrategy switch to choose between RetraceAfterLargeBar, TrendContinuationAfterLargeBar or RandomDirection. I have tested these settings on GBPCAD (see screenshots ...

DOSI: Daily Open Strategy Improved

When the market moves against us, we keep opening additional trades in the same direction as the first trade. We do this so the "average" price of the basket of open trades (i.e. the break-even price), keeps moving towards the current market price. ...

No problem. In version 1.30 I added a LotSizing dropdown menu to select either Compounding or FixedSize. Configure value in LotsPer10kEquity respectively FixedLotSize input parameters. To avoid confusion or human error in the steadily growing list ...

Good to know. Was that the original strategy or with some modifications?

Normally the EA would look for bars of which the body length is at least MinBarLengthPips. In version 1.25 I added the option to use a dynamic body length that adjusts to market conditions. See post #1 for a download link. By setting BarSelection to ...

DOSI: Daily Open Strategy Improved

Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't see how that should work. Suppose we have an open Buy that goes against us. Opening an equal sized Sell basically means we are fully hedged and effectively out of the market. We might as well have closed the ...

DOSI: Daily Open Strategy Improved

Isn't that the same? At the time we open the first order of the day, the equity is equal to the balance. During the day the equity starts to drop, because: Equity = Balance + floating P/L. When the floating P/L become too negative (default 25% of ...
