Lost Sock Evolution - Automated

Back above water!

w00t!!

lol

1100 trades for the week, still a fist full of hours remaining...

Very interesting week!

Part of the problem with running a mixed EA account is that some trades are going to get missed out while analyzing the entire batch.
Those buy trades? They were on Renko, so actually, according to the logic, we only had sells on the 1M and no buys.
Pity my broker doesn't allow for a lot more demo accounts, could have tested the Renko and 1M head to head on two different terminals.


So far, I need 15$ on my mixed account and around 30$ on my live account to get to the starting balance.
The pure Renko is still silent after those two trades. One of them was able to go a lot longer, Magix, just saying.
But profit is profit.

Think I have the idea behind 2.0 figured out...

Will work on it over the weekend.

Think I can improve the odds and reduce the DD...to help keep the same number of pairs in trade.

Might need a couple kicks at this cat...but I am excited by the data and testing this week!

Got a little of this shit figured out!

Oh...

And thanks to all of the current Testers of both Evolution and Revolution - who are sharing data!

Your participation in these early stages is GREATLY APPRECIATED!

Very nice, got a couple of sells at one of the peaks so DD has been reduced drastically (again, with those five most oldest trades removed).
Mixed demo is also at around 50$ DD, was 80$ DD before I went to walk the dog.

All and all, if you have the balance to carry this one through, it's a hammering machine.

Not that I throw a lot of faith into these here backtest things...

But since I now have a way of observing Draw when running...it would seem that $250 has been the most extreme I've seen on the one pair...

Much testing to be done, but I think this pretty much confirms what I've been saying...

Run Multiple Pairs - $200/pair...Minimum $2k account.

Not everything is going to be hitting the skids at the same time so as one is failing, the other requires less margin...until they eventually reverse.

Figured out a piece of code that has been fucking with me...going to be making some changes to Revolution to be a little better for profiting in and out of trend.

Learning as I watch the motion of the market!

Booyeah!

If backtests are to be believed...and they aren't...Revolution 2 should be titled "The Prophecy".

My dick is already hard for next week in market!

Triggers make sense...
Logic makes sense...
More than a comparative scale on Backtest Bullshit, but actual analytical time on historical charts, looks GREAT!

And...Some of the adaptive ranges can be applied to Revolution!

Auooooga!

Testing Prophecy on adaptive ranges to Time Frames...

Seriously the closest to an AI EA that I've done.

Hold on to your butts!

We got some good stuffs coming!

Going to shoot for a public release of new adaptive ranges and profit logic version of Revolution for 2 hours prior to market open.

If you have a Tester up on page one with the original...it will be in your email.

The Prophecy - Will load a TE for the Magic 7 pair - starting account $1000.

If it's as good as it seems to be...this should be no fucking problem!

Hi Magix,
I added my TE

Go easy on that Niacin mate

Although that EURGBP pair sure does have some curves on her!

[quote=Ezzy;10811448]
We all have our own trade philosophies and methodologies...

Some work...
Some...Not so much!

I started into this with an original idea - Trigger Ranged Dynamic Entries.

Meaning...cost averaging, like a grid, but with a bit of logic involved.

Moved on from a Standard Grid take profit, into a more Dynamic Ranged exit...

This all worked out, fairly well...barring exceptional circumstances and as long as you restarted every few weeks, you'd easily survive...

So...how to adapt?
Is it on indicators?
Grid Range Space?
Time Frame?
All of the Above?
Even More?

FUCK!

The more you do...the more you need to do. But...the more you do, the more you also understand, so, really, no loss!

Every new step I take, is a celebration of graduating the previous...and it opens up whole new worlds of ideas. Some, ideas from the past and how to incorporate, some altogether new.

I've made some fantastic money working with my little grid traders...lost a lot too...but, still going.

Like a fucking Timex...take a licken, keep on ticken!

As long as the overall gain, stays above the original equity, we are all good, in the hood!

What I've seen with Evolution...is pretty kewl!
Steady equity climb, not much by way of Diminishing Returns - each week is steady gross gains and after a set point DD - stability.

Revolution - next step ideas applied by greater range dynamics shows an impressive restraint when adding additional pairs equating into additional profit...seriously...double to triple profit of it's predecessor in the same span of time? That's pretty awesome in itself.
But...the number of trades per pair sucks! Limited to broker max.
Now...maybe next week, not so much...

Prophecy...
The idea to take the same equity curve and reduce the DD for continued gains ->dick = HARD!

That's the shit!


Oh...and...market is closed...

I'm right fucking hammered!

Most of my best shit comes from this state of no inhibitions...the evolution of my traders is the evolution of me.
Which means...if I came up with my best work, while I was hammered...and I most probably did...now that my ideas have evolved, why change my state of being??

Cheers, Mate!

Went for a meeting at the bank with my father...

He was wanting to invest some funds...we're all getting on in age and to him, it's still a matter of "He who dies with the most marbles, wins".

So...go man go!

The investment brokers we spoke with, have a "Target Yearly Gain" of like 4%...which...in bag loads of cash = more bag loads of cash!

BUT!

They want a brokerage fee and monthly fee...to the point of...if they did succeed in gaining you a bag load of cash, they'd be taking 2-3 bags with them...

Though you can pat yourself on the back for "Investing Wisely", you need to give your head a shake because all of that simply means, you are losing more per year than you can ever expect to gain.

If they WIN - They Profit! Good Deal!
If they LOSE - They STILL PROFIT!
WHAT??

That's how this shit works...on a smaller scale, build more equity into a smaller account and grow continuously without the Help and Charges of others.

Small steps now, really are, large steps for later.

Nedge...your way to profit!

What the fuck is a Nedge?

Great Question!!

It is what most traders consider a "Hedge", in that they are buying and selling the same pair at the same time.

When you sit back and think about this...you try to imagine where and how do you profit?

And rightly so!

Buy and Sell, market goes up...you exit your longs and hold your shorts...market keeps going up, you are holding only shorts, it consumes your threshold for risk, you exit aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand you're a loser!

Well Done!

So...why would anybody do this??

This too is an Excellent question!

The profitability of Evolution, Revolution and even Prophecy depend on some factor of Nedging.

They will take prosperous trades, directionally, and do their damnedest to keep in trend, but let's be serious, what the fuck is the trend to an M1, 2 pip Gridded Chart?

Exactly...makes no fucking sense at all...

BUT!

If you take and look at the equity curves provided...though the accounts may only be up a couple bucks, they also have a pretty fantastic equity curve...meaning, as price moves against where they profited and into the waters they hold Nedged Trades, this value will continue to increase and potentially never run into a factor of diminishing returns...

Check it out...

Seriously...Check it out ->HERE .

15.2% Gross Gains on a $4k Account holding $581 in DD, with a total Net Increase in Value of...$26 bucks!
After 1, 128 Closed Trades in a week, over a hundred more holding the Draw in place...

So...what happens when some of these chickens come home to roost?

More profit...that's what.

19 pairs in trade, gridding with a minimum of 2 pips between trades (Logic Adjusted), and the drawdown is only $581 while Gross Profit is $606...

When these trends reverse...and they will...the logic will remove the losers by way of profit on an 80+% win rate, stack up the cash in the following direction, while continuing to selectively hedge!

Evolution started with $250/wk average Gross Gains...

First week of Revolution - $600 Gross Gains??

Do the math...where's that leave you over the next 6 weeks?

I have recently set up a vps service. I would like to contribute with the work done here by linking a TE and sharing results. What do you suggest may be more helpful to test? Evolution, revolution, prophesy? Happy to have specific settings or my own experimental settings for the group to see.
Cheers
Ezzy

With a shit-ton of trades drawing you down from 6 weeks ago

I'm sure you probably already know this, but if any of your EAs are live and trade>10 lots a month there are VPS providers that will give you a VPS for free if you use them as an Introducing Broker for a new account... Could free up some room

Hi Magix,

As I see, your are find !

I think we will enjoy this new version for this comming week !

Have a nice week end

Regards,
GregV

This sounds awesome, cant wait!
