Any numbers you wanna share like number of trades you've done, % succesfull at R:R rate? Or any backtest numbers or edges you've found? Seems promising but can't imagine this system can be consistently profitable as it lacks any hard edge or system ...

Haha some decent memes indeed. But the problem are not these market conditions ofcourse, it's just the longer term, like you said somewhere yourself. It's really not so productive to discuss how well the system is performing right now is it? Just ...

just google the problem. sometimes excel doesn't automatically convert csv files, you just have to press 1 button in excel in order to transform it into seperate columns. From memory its data->text to columns

I sincerely hope that pointing out the obvious, that this is not the holy grail and that because the strategy is working in current market conditions won't necessarily mean it will work in other market conditions, is so extremely obvious to everyone ...

Nothing wrong with that, could be an early indication of a longer term phenomenon. As long as you remind yourself of that it's perfectly fine. But a lot of people view 1 or 2 weeks of data as definite, precise and statistically viable data and then ...

Haha, only logical explanation indeed
- nevie2 replied Mar 18, 2020
Yes very much so. If you actively traded this in during the last years/months send me a message, would be nice to hear how other people have fared in trading this. Last couple of months this strat has been extremely profitable, but then again, which ...

Yes optimal R:R calculations are endless and partly pointless, optimization will just lead to futile results, as is the case with nearly all optimization on past results. It's mainly just to get an indication; is it better to trade for long term ...

Also vis a vis more variables, it would be interesting to know wether the trade was in accordance with the monthly/yearly direction. Monthly is most likely a lot more interesting than yearly. Can be calculated by measuring the distance between the ...

Again, good stuff! Most of the variables are easy to understand indeed, and as long as you have succes per trade (so R:R reached), you can always test it for different variables and that's all that really matters. % profit should just be the R:R ...

Data looks nice, your just going to need a whole lot more. I would highly suggest adding in winning %, max R:R reached and such info in order to make it more 'workable' Also on a sidenote I don't really understand why people want to trade so many ...

ah nice, which data exactly? Whenever real work is involved, you can be sure that people back off very quickly , imho this is the almost the only usefull thing to discuss here but oh well Much easier to ask for someone ...

ah very nice, exactly the kind of patterns I was talking about, good stuff And yeah, inputting all data in excel is timeconsuming, but then you can do a lot more stuff with the data once you find new angles. Ofcourse the 'easiest' way to do this is ...

Thats the good stuff right there, nice work! Anything you noticed while looking at all those trades? any patterns, certain circumstances that made the trades better? That's usually where the juice is If the edge is good enough as is you can trade it ...

No problem in arguing, it's quarantine time so for this once we all have enough time anyway hehe. But I understand the logic, ofcourse a really small account it doesn't matter. But then again the real trading (the fulltimejob type) is not really ...

Yes 5% on 1 pair is a lot, but especially on 1 trade, no matter how good the odds are. Seeing as your results will be (mostly) randomised if you do this for a while it's quite easy to hit a few losers in a row. Also it's very much possible to lose ...

Some neat analysis right there, wish this forum was full of this, a lot more useful than what is usually posted. Your going to need at least 10 times more data to say anything statistically viable enough to trade on, but imo this is the way to go ...

15-20 trades tf usually h1 for unserious trading (extremely small lots) i go smaller and do some extreme R:R trades for fun
- nevie2 replied Aug 22, 2017
yes trading 70+ hours a week would be very crazy, I only trade for roughly 6 hours per day. The other hours get filled with analyzing parameters,backtesting, general analysis, analyzing live trades etc. Like Madinvestor said i also don't trade after ...
