The best version is the latest one - Rev E. If you don't want to use the hedge, just turn it to false. I might also suggest NOT to trade this system if all you have is $100. It will not perform the way it is supposed to. You will run out of margin ...

Yes - it was working, but after messing with so many true/false options it stopped working. So, there is a certain combination of settings that cause it to not work. (couldn't tell you which ones at this point) I hit RESET back to your default ...

I also was not getting any trades after changing a bunch of settings. Sorry I didn't save the settings, but I had to hit RESET and start changing things 1 at a time and it started working again. There must be a certain combo of settings that don't ...

Rename it to .set, then you can put it anywhere. The default folder is the tester folder under the root install. But, you can browse anywhere to get it. In the expert properties dialog box, hit LOAD then browse to pick the file. I can tell already ...

FYI - to use this system you need to start with either a lot of money or very small lot sizes. If you were to try to start with 1 on the first lot, your account would hit zero in the first week. You need to start with .01 lot sizes and have at least ...

hedge x — EC- I don't believe the hedge multiplier is working right. I think it is stuck at 1. Here you can see I have it set to 2, but it is using 1. image Am I missing something?

Gotcha - no problem. I was trying to test if I shut down the hedge sooner, would it help? No need to change the program. I can just test this with RSI exit false.

hedge tp? — EC- Shouldn't the h_tp override the RSI exit if it hits it first? This hedge should have exited at 50 pips, but it went to 125 instead. image

Appears to be working like a champ! I will run some tests..... Thanks!!
- domino2-4x replied Mar 7, 2011
Yeah - I assumed that h_top_level is the max amount of hedges to fire. In this case, you actually had both level and top_level set to 100. So I just wanted to make sure. I was thinking we could fire on velocity alone. That way if you want to "hedge ...
- domino2-4x replied Mar 7, 2011
Does it still work on levels? or just velocity? you have the levels to start hedging at 100....
- domino2-4x replied Mar 7, 2011
No - not really. RSI is really just used to determine overbought and oversold conditions.
- domino2-4x replied Mar 7, 2011
ec- I thought of a way to ensure protection on really big moves. It's another indicator that you may like to use as another filter, or instead of the RSI. It is a velocity indicator. I was thinking....people could use 2 ways. 1) Use the hedge on ...

Why would you want to do this? You would be taking huge losses. The program closes all the trades when it hits your profit target. (tp_in_money)
- domino2-4x replied Mar 7, 2011
For the most part....yes. If you get the include files you will have close arrows on the trades that have closed. I also changed my RSI on the hedge to 12 instead of the default 14, so it matches the rest of the program. Why are you confused?
- domino2-4x replied Mar 6, 2011
James- lower your entry criteria on the hedge. It is set to only enter if the RSI is below 25 or above 75. If you want more change it to 40/60. However, it may fire when you don't really want it to with it set that low. As long as the RSI criteria ...

That worked! Thanks....

I have multiple EAs that automatically detect what lot sizes the broker allows and adjusts accordingly. If you don't know how to do that it could just be a option added. (hedge_multiplier_roundto = .1) This HAS to be it because a .1 + .2 + .4 = ...

Does the hedge offset mean that it the hedge needs to be within 20 pips of the level it is activated on, or after 20 pips after the level?
- domino2-4x replied Mar 6, 2011
EC- are you sure the hedging is working on this 05 version? (this is the reg 05, not A or B version) Here you can see it was supposed to fire a hedge after level 3 and didn't. image Here are my settings - it was below the 25. image I am trying ...
