Hello Bauta, There is historic tick-data available through Tickstory (www.tickstory.com) which works surprisingly well i must say. doing this back-testing i notice that i get consistently better results when 's_WeightDirection' is 'false', and ...

Expanding Grid

has anyone been testing this with historic tick data? it would be nice to know how this EA would have behaved on EURUSD during its 1.40 to 1.10 fall from May2014 to Jan2015 anyone?

Can you share the analysis?

Expanding Grid

Thanks Bauta! that will do the trick, yes. Agree with override comment.

My best advise is: read it. It takes 2 hours and you'll spend that time easily sitting in front of your computer doing other stuff. Take that time. It will pay off.

Maybe you should actually read the thread first?

Thanks Bauta, Such setting is however not advisable when the TakeProfit is NEGATIVE (which is the case if a hedge yielded a positive result). Upon close , EG104 continues opening and closing (with a loss), open, close (loss), open close (loss) until ...

Thanks for the above! that wasn't too difficult. ;-) TEST RESULT! (in pdf attached) i've done the manual hedge as described here. The process works well, EG104 seems to have a small bug, but it almost worked perfectly ;-) Bauta, let me know if you ...

I'm afraid i have the same problem and even after letting it run for weeks it stays red. I'm sure i'm doing something wrong. How do i change the history date?

Expanding Grid

Bauta, can you please verify this to be correct: Post thanks!

Expanding Grid

Sorry but I don't follow you Steve. I'm taking off a hedge and whatever the result, I'm requiring EA_104 to offset that amount. Made 70$ on the hedge? Then I allow EA_104 to close 70$ lower. Lost 70$ with the hedge? Then EA_104 has to close 70$ ...

Bauta, After lots of discussions on how to get out of a trade that is moving against you (add more money to the account) lets talk about how to avoid getting in to it. Absent an automatic hedge/unhedge on news, can you verify this to be to correct ...

Expanding Grid

Bauta - i *do* accept this to be a challenge, so lets forget hedging as a means to address big market moves. I'd like to address 'News': If closure_mode is not successful before news, hedge 3m before news break and un-hedge 30m after and continue ...

Hello Bauta, Wasn't 32c not supposed to also use dynamic gridsize for the the first 4 positions? Judging from this EURGPB chart it starting 'going dynamic' only after the first 4 positions were taken. Am i doing it wrong? Please advise. Thank you so ...

Expanding Grid

i think you just supported my proposal

Expanding Grid

Hi Bauta, With today's move of the GBP and the earlier one of the USD I'm more and more convinced that hedging 3m before news break and unhedging 30m after, is a very effective way to prevent DDs in case a closure_mode hasn't been successful. As a ...

Expanding Grid

Great! Seems you have a handle on this Bauta! What I really really like about it is that it is fully automated. Rather have less profits with finite risk, than big profits with huge swings and big DDs without bottom. It being automated makes all the ...

Expanding Grid

Thanks - just so I understand: the longs are closed when break even, but only when price in on way down? So in the graph above it is a stop_sell order that closes the longs (buys) in point (2)? In point (1), when price is going up, you are probably ...

Expanding Grid

Hang on... The strategy is exactly as I wrote it ;-) hedge 3m before news and unhedge 30m after. Simple. Well, please forget about markets turning against your for a minute. Just focus on News and Weekends! Nothing is in trouble, only a hedge for DD ...
