I'm a quite new member and was reading this thread and was thinking if could be a good idea ranking the most profitable configuration. I could see lot of results but always changing something here and something there. If we could do this kind of rank, would be better for everybody reading and contributing with this post.
I'm attaching an excel file as to be used as a base rank list, we could updated and post it each. Actually the list need some improve, but what you Guys and girls, think about?

Thanks , because your friendly approach I would like to answer about the Rank List. As a first idea it seems like a good idea to me as well, but a ranking is impossible. There are too many factors, The Casino EA itself is a very flexible EA, and with additonal options like filters, pins, pair variations, miscallineus Sl-TP options , Money Management strategies, trading times..So I can easily say the factors are so many, beside of this one can change any parameter in any time that the previous sets are history. Morover who will judge that which is better from each other, You can do a rank list on a fixed EA, but Casino is one of the masterpiece with may let me say thousand of variatons to adjust differently, becasue you can even play with parameters inside the pins. I wish you can get the point what I am talking about. Making your own ranking is better, open 5-10 demo accounts and play differently from each other, and then start to play again eliminating worse setups and improving better setups. This alone will take a long time

Here is the end of yesterday with HAS+2MA, 1hr, settings as previous post. I would normally set a weekly target of $300 (about 300pips), but I am still trying to optimize my ATR trailing stop settings so I let it run on. My normal weekly target was hit early in the NY session, after that most of my gains were lost, so I believe that weekly targets are still the best way to go.

I am now quite happy with my TP/SL and ATR trailing stop settings (also disabled all SL/TP and exits in Casino that I missed), so I will restart my test and set a new $250 (about 250pips) target for the next two days. This is the story so far with London just starting

With my 15min no-PiNs Casino testing I have found the ATR trailing stop used in HAS+2MA test too slow moving, so I have change to the faster pip based trailing stop EA "RoNz Auto SL-TS-TP" which can be found on the MQL5 site. With this EA I can set very tight Trailing SL conditions that is more suited to impulse catching no-PINs Casino setup, I place the EA on each trading Pairs chart and use these are the settings I am trialing

My no-PINs Casino did not handle well with the CAD news last night with many pairs going the wrong way just before the news. I am going to try some different setup tomorrow, with smaller backet Targets.

However, my HAS+2MA test picked up the spike and hit my Basket Target (I reset too about 150pips), I believe that shows it is important to take reasonable profits and stop for the rest of the day/week, especially around major news events.

Notice it also hit above 150 early in the day, but at that time I had too high a higher Target set (250).

Well, I am not impressed with being called a bearded guy lol.

Here are my results for this week using Ptrade 24/5 using pin 1 as the close. Stop loss is 20 pips for this week, found 10 wasn't wide enough last week. Traded all pairs no interference. Showed fantastic profitability this week even with it being a crappy time of the year to trade. I have to say this pin has been good the last couple weeks with over 20% of my demo account growth.

I read this somewhere regarding CAD news. Before the news, check if oil is up or down. If oil is up, we have to sell/short USD/CAD. If oil is down, we have to buy/long USD/CAD.

So if we sell USD/CAD, then we also sell AUD/CAD, EUR/CAD, GBP/CAD, NZD/CAD but buy CAD/JPY and CAD/CHF.
Reverse if we are buying USD/CAD.

Its been working for me, i actually wish there is CAD news every week, lol.

Thanks for the tip. The relationship between CAD and oil is very strong, however, my non-PIN Casino testing is about finding a pure Autotrading setup that could take advantage of such market spikes by itself. So far that has evaded me, maybe, like you hinted, I have to treat each news event as a separate trade event and trade only those pairs involved in a semi-automatic way. I will think about whether to continue with these non-PIN tests or not over the holidays, I may go back to concentrating on more workable PINs like HAS+2MA, 3 Screen, Guppy etc and just avoid the big news events all together.

In the meantime my HAS+2MA 1hr testing is still going well, now I'm including equity stop as well to try and catch any profits made and then stop for the Day. Only small Profit today, but it is Xmas Friday so not looking for much today

Also I have now restarted my Guppy_V2 testing, following on with my External Trailing Stop EA idea: I have added tighter SL and Trailing Stop conditions with Equity Lock/Basket Target combination, here are the first results after a 12hour run about 150pips gain. This needs a more testing though.

Thank you for sharing, I enjoy seeing your pics and funny comments as well. Great results, I assume you are using a fixed 20pip SL for every pair, good idea to keep it tight and simple.

Ok, this is the most tasty beard that I would appreciate in my life!!! lol
Really good results with your tests.
I'm going to start tests next month. I am working on a PIN to catch the pull backs.
I have read the Dashboard EAX thread also, and I would like to ask you if the PINs are generated in the same way as there, I mean the name of the global variable.
Thank you all for the contribution, I'm learning a lot with you and I'm really thankfull.
A great and wonderfull Christmas for everybody, "bearded" and "not bearded also". lol

JusteUncleL, Allready my brain is burning after testing many setups and get not a consistent winning strike the whole week. I know it is end of year, but however it should be better. My only best winner was the non-pin Casino on H1 charts and same filter like yours starting from Tokyo, but I used the MOM =30 Tp and SL was fixed to 0.5 and the pairs were C14.... I already has posted on my previous post the screenshot. It gave me overall a %3 but I am not satisfied becasue the up and down was a bit much as I wished.
May I ask the last chart on your post #1746 with the pin. Is that pin setup exactly from post # 1733 . I assume that this trade start was not in Tokyo. I hate this Zigzags from going down of nice profits, so the start time beside majors news is very important. Can you please advise of start time of this chart . Also I like your Basket stop from 1 and maybe can be divided to 2 sessions example LO and NY....

i am looking forward to your tests on the Guppy. I was intrigued by that pin from earlier tests. The biggest hurdle people had was a solid exit strategy. Good luck to you.

Freedom48 you have to take this week results good or bad as fluff. This week is probably one of the worst weeks to trade. Keep digging you will find the gold it is out there we just need to be diligent.

I have been pm about my setup with the ptrade so I am attaching all the settings and a trade report.

Yes my HAS+2MA testing is still using the setup on post #1733, since then I have been trying to optimise the SL/TP, trailing stop and basket exit conditions. My current idea is to use Equity Lock and Basket TP for a Daily profit target, once reached stop for the day. I can confirm both tests were started early Asian session. I am not concerned with results today and next week, just testing some ideas ready for new years trading. I always expect some cycling of the trends as the market keeps changing, so some DD can be expected, as long as at the end of the days run I have managed to catch a profit point (small or large) I would be happy.

Thank you for sharing all your setup details, much appreciated, merry Xmas Angel.

Yes I had tested Guppy with some success a few months back, but, as you said the exit conditions are not very good and I could get days with big DDs. So by adding what I have learnt with using an external Trailing Stop EA, I have added some exit control to Guppy by combining an external Trailing Stop EA and daily equity conditions I'm hoping for a better showing this time. Only further testing will tell how successful this idea will be.
