As an example, I've coded up a scraper for TradingView. Here is some data I've grabbed earlier (containing a total of 4000 signals from UK/US/FR/DE...region WWW is US btw): image Note the highlighted area... 4 signals within 2 minutes from 4 ...

Good evening all, The coding is going well so far, and I'm reasonably content with my rendition of horizontal trend lines... however, I wouldn't mind checking it's suitability. Would it be possible to ask a few people to plot their version of ...

So I've got Horizontal SRs coded, or at least, the first iteration of them. It is quite difficult to pinpoint what a good SR line is formed of. Currently, my philosophy is: I could edit it to also search for candles that high reaches the same point, ...

Good morning guys, I've spent a while scouring the forums, especially the 'trading systems' ...

Thought I'd give a try, so coded some things up: iUseExitNY (always quit trades at end of NY session) iUseExit4Candles (always quit trades if the last 4 candles didn't create a higher high) iUseExitNY4Candles (quit trades at end of NY session if ...

Sorry dude but these look based on best case scenario; 32% per month consistently is absolutely insane and unsustainable and to base a few months/years on 4 days of trading isn't really worthwhile.. I'll show the maths and testing below. Firstly, ...

At the point of that candle, EMA4 was still above EMA15. Equally, the candle before 'came close' to EMA30, so may have been classed as a trade itself? image

Why didn't you trade the candles about 4-5 hours before your trade? EMA4/15/30 were in the right positions, pivots satisfied (with all EMAs below), and right at the end of the picture there is another valid entry? image
- Penguinthief replied Nov 30, 2018
Sorted mate. The reason was the way it calculated pivots.. You must have started on 29/11/18 I assume.. It wouldn't trade as it had no previous pivot to compare to, as it starts logging pivots on the day you start the EA (so it didn't have anything ...

Robot Gorilla anyone? MT5 ONLY!! image Rules (to buy... sell is reverse): Todays pivot must be higher than previous days All 3 MAs must be above pivot and in order (4>15>30) The EMA must be trending upwards for last x points (toggle + adjustable ...

July 16th is a loss, Oct 9th is a win.. didn't see any other stand out ones, but there's just some attention to detail. True results for that period below (number of trades matches up, wins/losses doesn't). Some may be broker based with minor ...

Hey man, think your timings may be off.. If you're using a standard MT4/5 account with a GMT+2 timeframe, your box should be 0100-0445: Differences: 03/10/18 - No trade as box is > 45 pips 08/10/18 - Win image 09/10/18 - Win image 10/10/18 - ...

My apologies, doing this a lot.. I still had multiple trades turned on, as its my default... If you're not trading multiple trades per day (my default allows this), the max is 4. Worst place for this is Oct 5 2016 to Oct 20 2016, where we have 2 4x ...

Evening dimash, Programmed a basic Martingale management into the system.. Doesn't operate too smoothly though, as we could lose 5 trades which are 45 pip windows, then our win could be a 15 pip window or an end-of-day close for 0.5pips or ...

Evening Emerald, Please see below. Same settings as above, and includes a 10% maximum breakout with or without a 'First candle only' rule. (useFirstClose true means only the first breakout can be used, false means later ones can if they abide by the ...

Evening Ivanyo, Got your SL idea coded... doesn't perform too well. Standard shit below, just tested for 2018. $1000 account, 15-45 pips window limit, 1 trade per day max, 0.01 lots. Severely hinders profit for a bit of a minor trade-off on DD: ...

To revisit this post, I've been thinking of a few things to battle this point. Todays trade was a great example. Our first breakout candle closed around 20% into our TP zone, meaning we no longer keep our 1:1 ratio (our TP shrunk by ~20%, and our SL ...

Done quite a bit of analysis on the above. Settings as usual: M15, EURJPY, $1000 account, 0.01 static lots, 01/01/2017 - now using 1min OHLC, 15-45 pip windows Based around the question above: should we retrade? image This screenshot shows two ...
- Penguinthief replied Oct 22, 2018
In your first post you showed 2 examples, both of which appear to be invalid trades? I think if you've done manual back-testing, your eyes have been blinded by losses! Just to ensure I have the theory down, in your example 3 why isn't the trade made ...
