No, if market moves 30 pips during news, slippage will occur and order(S) will be accepted. I've see slippage of 60-80pips. We do not want orders this far off. If slippage is set tighter then we can retry trade over and over until filled. This could ...

I agree, I have looked over his code from his other system. He is an amazing programmer. Seems like he's coming from basic or C to mql but never the less great programming with excellent math. He is taking a different approach to trading but I can ...

Remon, I'm not sure what variation in settings you're using but if I test your settings file on tick data it does not work out the same. This is May-15 to May-16. image Settings seem curve fitted to market.. .1 lot and $50 profit: ...

Hopefully what I've shown you here is that the market did change from month to month. And it will change again in the future. You can forward test for years but it could prove to be a waste of time at any given month.

Yeah, I would actually expand and explain that it is not just 1 system but a series of systems designed for different market scenarios that you can balance based on current system performance. Remon has a good concept here where he is trying to ...

@Neo1 here is some results of your settings on EURUSD I had to break up into different reports because the Strategy Tester would just stop making trades, no errors, no problems being reported when it stops. Memory usage never got out of control but ...

In regards to code optimization, I've started testing Neo1's setting file; The tester has been running for ~3 hours and has only completed 1 month on tick data. ~4500 trades and the system hasn't done anything for the last .5 hour but the terminal ...

Nope, there isn't a unicorn. But I'd rather build a herd of ponies, which is what you need to do. I like this idea ONLY because it keeps the margin % lower than most grids, but that is all. If we can open up remons black box we can improve this ...

I've been trading since 2004 and programming in mql4 since 2009. And I was talking about optimizing the code, so that it runs faster during backtests. Not optimizing the settings.

I can do 99.9% modeling quality backtest. This was an attempt at 10k-120k like remon was looking for, Searching for decent settings. Still waiting for source code then maybe I can find room for code optimization so the backtest is faster. This will ...

Remon, are you ever going to post the source? I think a few members here are not even testing this system because so far it's a black box. I have read the entire thread and been following along but it seems useless unless we know what's going on ...

I wasn't actually creating the .hst file in the dummy server, i was creating them in the broker server folder then connecting to the dummy server and copying the hst file over. i also tried this.. in the code in v3.2 i changed: ...

Im really hoping MT5 will have other types of selectable charts(renko, and maybe P&F charts) so we dont need to go through this..
- gmax111 replied Nov 8, 2009
When you run the EA or script it creates *.hst files which contain the renko blocks.. I've modded the EA(v3.2) to allow creating the renko blocks in a M5 *.hst file.. then i can disconnect from the broker server move the hst file to pseudo broker ...

The problem is not in the backtester the problem is trading an EA on live feed.. But now this post brings up another question.. How can i get v3.2 to run as a script so i can get backtest-able data with the wicks.. it is very difficult to get v3.2 ...

LastViking there seems to be a problem when applying EA's to the renko chart. I've read this entire thread and it seems a few ppl are also having problems with EA's.. I've tried unchecking "offline chart" in the properties window and sometimes it ...
