Lost Sock Evolution - Automated

Nice work Magix!

I've read everything, and I'm really intrigued by this strategy. I've opened a demo account to run this separately from my other things I have, and see what it can do.

I have however only opened it on 5 pairs as I think the more pairs running simultaneously can increase the DD considerably. I'm keen to see what this EA will do.

\m/

Rock on, dude!

Let me know if you are interested in sharing some information from your TE - Demo test account.

I will put it up on the first post - with anybody else - currently only Energetic is up for comparison.

The more information, especially on pairs that I don't have included in my testing, the better understanding we all have.

Sure I've made the TE public so you can add it.

I'll only switch it on tomorrow LO so there won't be anything showing up just yet.

Added!

Thanks!

Addon...

SQUEEZE YOUR GLUTES!

I don't even remember how many times I've seen this posted or watched in on youtube...

Dafuq does that even mean??

My hands and feet are pressed to the floor, giving up all of the energy I have to just keep myself from getting a fucking nose bleed and there's more?

Yeah...this can be both hard, trying to get your head into this game and easier once you've got going.

What does it mean?

Just means, pinch your ass cheeks together. Best way I heard it described, squeeze in your ass like you are holding a pencil between your buttcheeks.
Fucking ooooooooooooooooooooohhhhh!!

Now...hopefully, you got the same visual I did, in that you are holding the pencil parallel to you, because...well...perpendicular means that you are trying to well...let's just not go there.

Make it easier...keep your feet close together (as you are getting used to this) - get into your proper form - starting off on your belly, hands shoulder width apart, SQUEEZE your GLUTES, and push like you want to not get a fucking nose bleed!

w00t!

Again...I'm not trying to tell you to do this, but really, whatchu got to lose?

I did state that I had to start off with the "Wussy" pushups, but hey...if you are the same, there's no fucking shame in that!

Doing anything to better yourself isn't anything to be ashamed of...especially if you have some physical issues that you want to overcome, or if you simply want to do pushups - LIKE BRUCE LEE!

A journey of a thousand miles starts with the first steps.

This fucking guy...

I get it that the world is built of many different people...but in a trading forum, there are few more worthless than this fucking shithead!

In the years that I've been here...admittedly, I don't read every post...this guy posts as little as trade-related as possible and when he does, it's all fucking negative.

This latest attempt, at a time suck or clickbait thread, is about as fucking morbid as morbid gets!

Yeah...shit always don't work out your way and a lot of us who've been round for a while have seen the threads or posts of desperate traders wanting to end their existence...shit, maybe some of us have even wanted to be there...but to suss it out?

Are you fucking kidding me?

So...what is all this code shit and how does it even work??


Now...every coder has their own stylings - to be sure - and I can't really say that any of them are wrong...really, doesn't matter if they are as long as you can get shit to work.

So...let's have a looksie at the attached CORE of Lost Socks and see if we can't make a little sense of it.

First line of actuall triggering code - obviously related to "Buy"'s.
Really, if you look at it, you can see that the code basically says, if you have selected Only Buys or All - Meaning you haven't selected only sells - you want to take buy orders. Pretty fucking basic...right?

Let's move along:
If b==0, I'm sure I don't need to explain this, or the reason it can fail - that's been covered - but if there are no buys and according to the line above, buys are not excluded from trading...automatically take a trade!!

SHAZAM!

Run the core code, during live market and you will see that the first thing it does is load one buy and one sell to your account...well, fuck...didn't really want that, but ya get it...right?

After that, there's this "||".
Dafuqs that mean?

Well, its basically saying "or"....

Will come back to it!

Next up:
b>0...hrmmm...so..if buys before were zero or equal to zero and the or sign comes into effect, and we are now looking at we already have a trade in play, what's the next steps...comes this:
&& obviously is a "Must Include Criteria", like when you go to McDonald's...you order a #(Whatthefuckever), it implies that fries and a soft drink Must Be Included.
Aight...

Next up - (BuyMinPrice-Ask)>=BuyDist

HERE's Your Grid!!

This is a standard grid and on the EA - User Parameters allow you to set BuyDist...the distance between the first trade taken, and the following subsequent trades.

w0w...that was easy, right?

We take a trade, set a minimim distribution range and additional and subsequent trades are taken if they meet with the "Fries are Implied", logic.

Now...the main issue that I found with this idea - Same as ALL GRID TRADERS - is that they just assume price will come back inside of the close logic (will cover later) to make profit. Again...not an unreasonable idea - given that market chops more than trends...so what's the issue?

Well...ya gotta run this motherfucker to figure that out and this is one of them times it is OK to use the Strategy Tester - But STILL NOT A GOOD IDEA TO POST THE RESULTS IN MY THREAD!!

See what this fucker is doing and ask yourself:
1. Did we really want to take a buy/sell when we activated this trader?
2. Did we really want to just blindly add another trade - X Pips Away?

The answer to both of these, obviously, NO! But if you don't watch it happen, can you really understand what it is doing??

Okay...so...you run the strategy tester - you place on your favorite template that matches with your idea of trades and you get an idea!


We don't just want to take a Blind Opening Trade for shitz n gigglez...we don't just want to add in blindly at X pips...but what we want to do is wait for (?????)

Now...run the LSE in your strategy tester...go ahead...it's okay.

And you will see that we don't Automatically open a primary trade and if that trade is open, don't necessarily ADD in more trades at X number of pips.

Why??

Well, I've told this motherfucker to SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW DOWN!!!
Take some time...
Analyze the Market!!
And...if all is good, take a Primary Trade or Add to the existing trade, but do it when there is a Minimum Distance (Grid) between current and last trade AND - Wait for a trigger.

This - is what I have coined and for the most part, am the only one working - TRIGGER ON GRID!

Meaning that not only do we require a grid, we also need confirmation.

But what about the TREND, you ask??

GREAT FUCKING QUESTION!
Glad you are paying attention!!

Into our primary trigger, we can tell it what to look for. ie, if current price is ABOVE X Moving Average - Trend is Long, and then define our trigger from there.
From there, we ADD in our TRIGGER ON GRID strategy and say, if price is X pips away, and CCI/RSI is Above/Below (XXX) then, take another trade.
(this is just an example - if you've tested LSE, you will know that CCI nor RSI are a part of what is being used, because they don't show up on the Strat Test Chart.)

Once you've written in your Primary Trigger for Long and Subsequent trigger to Trigger on Grid, do the converse for the Next Set of Code to follow which looks like:

Notice the similarities in these - as it is a Grid Trader - All trade logic, should be the same.

If s==0, if s>0, &&.......

Write in your code...
Test it in the Strat Tester...
If all looks good...
FIRE THIS MOTHERFUCKER UP on a DEMO ACCOUNT and see how it works.

TADA!!

You are now a GRAND WIZARD OF EA's!!
Pat your self on the back and go buy a new car!

Or not...

Ya know...if it was just that easy, everybody would do it, this would change the face of market and Nobody would make money...but that doesn't mean that your idea won't work...put the fucker to test!!

GRIND THAT SHIT OUT!

And...if you have issues ->GO HERE !

[/Scratching Head]...

It's a lot easier once you've had a chance to fuck around with this...honestly it is...

So...let's go over a couple more things...


This really is the first place to start...otherwise, you will always open this fucker up and automatically have trades in play.
Now...this may not all be bad...if the trend is long - according to your idea of market - and you select Only Long in the terminal, you are manually interjecting and taking some control, so - not all lost...

BUT!!

If you want an actual trigger or trend in play...how to add??



Oh yeah!!

So - You get to pick where you've set your primary Trigger!!

w00t!

Maybe...you want to set in a Price - Like Supply and Demand Trading - oooooooooooooooooooooh! wouldn' that be kewl!!
If (b==0&& Bid is <= XXXXX) - whoa!
or...
Candle Based:
if (b==0&& Close[1]>Open[1]) <- trigger based on a bullish candle - Close is greater than Open, we have a Bull. Close < Open, we have a Bear.
or...
Indicator Based:
if (b==0 and iCCI(NULL,0,24,PRICE_CLOSE,0)<-100)....

TADA!!

You are now a GRAND WIZARD OF EA's!!
Pat yourself on the back and go buy a new car!

Or Not...

Fucken sure seems like a lot of work, hey??

Especially, if you are like me and really don't have any sort of programming background - psept if you collected bottles in Grade 2 and got to work on an Apple IIe, like I did!

lol

You've probably already got a few EAs - .mq4 files in your terminal that you've played with already...
Crack them fuckers open.

See where there logic is!

And now that you know how to use these to add a primary trigger - by adding the &&, and now that you know you can grid these motherfuckers by adding the &&...time to giver a whirl!

Really...it's kind of like the pushup thing without the confusion of the angle of the pencil being squeezed between your buttcheeks!

If
Than
Then!

If
Than
Then!

If
Than
Then!

Primary Trigger!
Supplementary Trigger!
Exit!

All the same, a set of criteria that you pick!!

If
Than
Then!

Booyeah!

NIACIN!!

WHEW!

Ever take this shit?

Then you KNOW what the flush is ALL ABOUT!

Fuck Yeah!

Feels like the worst sunburn of your life for a good half hour!
Drop one of these motherfuckers and get a cold shower ready...

In getting back to better health, one of my Favorite Supplements is Niacin!
Does some pretty amazing stuff in the body, mostly, I take it to help me stay in Ketosis and get the best out of my Fat Burning. There is an After Burn Effect in taking Niacin, so I drop a few of these bombs before I hit the sheets...now, for the most part, I am adapted - meaning, I take enough of this shit to not have that horrible flushing effect of Niacin, but will take some time away occasionally, just to Feel the BURN!

So...

Maybe you are getting on in age - I'm there...I get it...
Things - at night with the Mrs. - ain't what they used to be - been there too...in fact, this is what it really took for me to realize I had some serious issues.
No...the chronic pain, vomiting and diarrhea weren't enough...it's when, ya know, things below weren't working like they used to...

Gunna save you some awkward reading here and just say...Niacin helps get things moving along again.
Increase in GH, reduction of LDL, Anti-Inflammatory, helps with Poor Circulation, Fatigue and Depression.

What's not to love about that??

THE FLUSH!

AGAIN...that takes some time to get used to and if you take it properly, you can be adapted in a DAY to this effect.

Why am I talking about this?

Just dropped a couple, haven't had any since Friday and I am not as adapted as I was...WOWZERZ!

There's a few more things I do add to my daily supplement rituals, all under the idea of Longevity, but hey...why would you want to live longer, if you aren't enjoying life??

If you're bored...

My good friend ,so glad to see you kicking around some again ,,,,,hope all is well for you and yours ,,,cant help but smile a little from past endeavors and experiences in this crazy trading world ,,KCCO my friend

Good times, brother!!

Good Times!

Not sure if I lost my fight or just haven't got the same interest/tolerance for bullshit...fine in my own little corner, blowing spit bubbles...

Still having fun!
Still making Money...

Guess that's all that really matters.

KC
Fucking
CO!

Lol,, just a sign of maturity ,,shit did I say that out loud Ha ,,,,,,,,,alls good in your world thats all that matters man,,,,,,,, either that or we just reached the age where just saying feck it ,,they will find out is the classier thing to do ,,, just good to see your voice man

Up all night, doing what I used to do...all night!

??

Ever heard of Prolactin?

It's a hormone produced by the body, secreted by the pituitary gland, in response to eating, mating, estrogen treatment, ovulation and nursing...now...if you're a dude, a couple of these, probably don't apply as much...but as the time is ticking away, one thing does...

Response to Mating!

Up all night, doing what I used to do...all night!

So...you've gone hard for 4 and half minutes and you are burned out and well...not ready for round 2...how does this even happen?
It's not that you aren't mentally ready, nor want to go, because, well...if you are married, opportunity just don't come round as often.

Kinda goes along with an old joke...

Q: What food, when given to a woman, will prevent her from having sex?
A: Wedding Cake!

Alright...it's a joke...don't go getting all offended and let's not lose track of the post...
Prolactin!

As you get older, you produce less dopamine while your prolactin levels - when stimulated - don't taper the same. This results in what is known as the "Refractory Period", applied to that private time with you and your partner. Once your done, you can just get to a point where getting back going, isn't an option.

Goes like this...

When you have dopamine, you have less prolactin. When you surge prolactin...you have less dopamine.

Meaning...refractory period!

FUCK!
(Not as literally and more so figuratively)

So...given this time, close to Valentine's and all...as a brother, want you to have the most of your, money well spent on dinner and flowers!


How's that?

Well...you see...along with keeping things going - Niacin - you can take stuffs to help you AMP up your Dopamine which will reduce that whole refractory period.

Yup...Really...

I know what your saying...prolly $45/pill, needs a prescription or is illegal.

Wrong...all accounts.

There is a Natural Substance (I know what you are saying already), that can naturally increase Dopamine and well...give you a better night.

Mucuna Puriens - Also known as cowitch, velvet bean, Werepe, Kara, Agbara...

A lot of the studies behind this are related to Parkinson's, you may remember the movie with Robin Williams where he was hyper feeding patients L-Dopa to get them back mobile...whatever...anyways...Mucuna Puriens contains L-Dopa, a Dopamine Precursor. Meaning...stack up the Mucuna and increase your dopamine, drop your prolactin and be as active as an 18 year old minimizing the refractory period.

Really?

This Easy?

KINDA!

Along with Niacin and another one of my fav sups, Pine Bark Extract, the 3 work synergistically.

PBE - a non-patented version of pycnogenol - is what I affectionately call "Morning Wood".

If you are old enough to remember what Morning Wood is...welcome aboard to PBE. You will wake up with a Kick Stand!

It's a FANTASTIC supplement, offering a lot more than waking up with a hardon...google that shit!

So...

Here's what I'm saying...
Instead of being up all night trying to do what you use to stay up all night doing...stay up all night and do what you used to do when you used to stay up, ALL NIGHT!

Niacin + Pine Bark Extract + Mucuna Puriens!

Additional benefits to follow...but in light of the Hallmark Holiday, figured I would litterally - Throw you a bone.

:|

Okay...tell you more about this magical trio of Natural Viagra...

I can do that...

Seriously...if you do this wrong, you will have a REALLY BAD TIME!!

It starts off with the Niacin.

When I say Body Flush and feels like a sunburn...it's kind of played down.

Seriously, you turn into a fucking lobster, get the crack bug itch and are hotter than a firecracker!!
This description is still MILD compared to what you may feel.

And I know you'll want to dick punch me after your first dose...thinking...what sort of sick twisted shit is this anyways??

Dude...I hear ya!

I'm feeling ya!

It's harsh...feels like you may even have a stroke or heart attack...you won't...it's just a little uncomfortable is all...get over it!
It's all for the better.

SO...here's what you do...and, I hope you are working from home, if you try this...

Take your first hit of Niacin, PBE, and Mucuna Puriens before you are ready to shower and wait until you start to feel warm...and then get into the shower. Don't look in the mirror...don't fuck around, just get into the shower!!

WHEW!!

Made it!

3 Hours Later...take your next Niacin.

WHAT??

Yup...do it.

Because your body is still processing the first batch of this shit, you may feel a little sensation, but certainly not the levels you felt on your first hit!

3 hours later, SAME THING!

By the third dose...you probably won't feel anything and now you are cruising!!

w00t!!

We are now at Hour 12...assuming you've shopped for this shit tomorrow and are starting on VD...
Double down on the PBE and Mucuna Puriens and take your LAST hit of Niacin.

And if you don't send me an email, thanking me for your Valentines Night...your wife probably will!!



Dosage...
Now...everybody is different, but when comes to this shit, overdosing is an impossibility, but that's not saying to GO MAD FUCKING CRAZY!!
I cap all my newts, so have a GRAND understanding of my dosage - within reasonable measures...capping isn't an exact measure by any stretch.

My Dosage:
750mg of Niacin/Hit - Get whatever the pharmacy has...don't matter what size it is, you will feel the burn and will get the effects.
750mg of PBE
750mg of Mucuna Puriens.

Now...about the only thing you may want to cycle, unless you are some sort of sick twisted fucker that likes looking like a beet and feeling sunburnt, is the Mucuna Puriens. One of the benefits of MP is that it will help boost testosterone and if you are really manning up and doing your pushups, should be a good thing, right?

KINDA!

What happens is, you can start to get too much test and start to break out in ZITS...back, face, forehead...oh yeah...just like you were Juicing!

Don't be all afraid n shit...your not going to RAGE on it...it's just a small side effect and your bodies way of letting you know when to throttle back.

Once you've gone past your first Niacin Adapting day...just take all 4 doses 2 hours before you go to bed. No need to feel that burning feeling all day and in actuality, this shit will work better when you sleep anyways.

And...were all adults here.

If ya don't get it...don't be shy...ask a question.

I'm far away enough I'm not afraid of being dick punched on the Niacin thing...and old enough to know that we all want to improve one of the best parts of our lives.

I am opening up my PMs for the next 24 hours if you have...private questions...

I feel ya...

Ahhhhhhhhh...good questions...

FOR HER!!

She's not in the mood anymore...will this help?

KINDA!

Physiologically speaking...as we get on in age...prolactin can play a part in libido for women. For them, it's more of a nurturing hormone so makes them more into cuddle time than does into BOW CHICKA WOW WOW!!

So...can she take the same protocol to help out?

Sure...

Niacin will have the same flushing effect on a woman...make sure you full well explain this otherwise it's you in for the dick punch!
PBE, will help blood flow for a woman's parts, much the same as a man.
Mucuna Puriens will help the Dopamine - similar feeling to what you get from eating chocolate - dopamine being a Reward Sensation...
And the Niacin will help with...how to put this mildly...a lubricating factor.

Besides the overall extra energy you will get from this, there is some mental clarity, help with sleep, increased muscle tone and even some weight loss through appetite suppression.

BUT for the gals, they can use an extra little help in this department and yup, still all legal and OTC and all natural.

Chasteberry.
Also called Vitex.

Should be able to find this, if not at your local market, through Amazon.

This will help be one of the other catalysts in making the Big Impact for your nightly alone time...FOR HER! Not you dude!

And hey...

If you're checking shit out anyways...wanna lower your estrogen...yeah, dude...that's whats causing your bitch tits...look for DIIM. It's an extract from the Brachia Family - Broccoli, cabbage and sorts...that can help reduce estrogen that you are getting from the beer consumption or shit like using Shampoo or drinking out of a plastic water bottle...

uh huh...

Uh Huh...

No...This isn't something that you can just do when you think you're going to be in the mood...

Sure it may help on Valentine's day, BUT!!

An accumulation over a period of 3 weeks and I tell you what buddy...

You will be all walking around like:
