Magregus & all those of you who had obviously never bothered to read this thread properly,

When Swingman said he is on the way to the bank, its meant to be taken in a light hearted manner - ie it's meant to be a light hearted JOKE!!! Don't take it literally. No one should trade this EA live yet, at least not at this moment. We still got a long way to go to tweak and find the best settings etc. I really don't have time to entertain you guys who put the EA on 23 pairs with only $1,000. Please read the thread properly and at least grasp the logic/strategy behind this EA. Take all we say here with a big pinch of salt - and if you truly understood the logic, strength & weaknesses of this EA, you would immediately know when we are saying things in a light hearted manner and when we are serious. I really don't have the energy to entertain you guys who obviously never put in any efforts to read the thread but expect instant gratification!!!

Its been a very busy day for me and with the limited time that I can put aside to test the EA today, here are my further observations at this moment in time:

1. After having tested few other pairs, I think only the gbpjpy fits the bill here - the other pairs simply lack the volatility required. The other pairs did not show as promising a result as the gbpjpy pair.

2. So, I think maybe it is not realistic to use the EA to trade multiple pairs simultaneously, instead, I think better to trade at a higher lot on the gbpjpy alone.

3. From my back-test since the beginning of this thread - I can safely say (just as I had repeatedly stated throughout the thread) that the bottom line/benchmark for 'practically risk-free' trading in Hybrid Mode is $1,000 per 0.01 lot per pair traded - and realistically you can expect 50% to 70% return per year. I have pushed the limits and I can say that the maximum is 0.03 lot traded per pair per $1,000 (you should get at least 100% return a year) - But all these remains to be forward tested.

4. Best to take small profits ($20 to $50 per 1 lot traded) as this has the effect of quickly closing the trade cycle and hence avoiding potential deadlock situations.

I will post this first.

Did you not read the posts by Philip?
Here is one with comments on what he has tried: https://www.forexfactory.com/showthr...5#post10948275
How do you want to contribute to the testing here?

Maybe it would be good to be able to enter SL / TP in pips(!), wait and see what Philip says.

Hybrid Mode is $1,000 per 0.01 lot per pair traded

After running some backtest (99% tickdata, 10 spread), Im totally agree with that, dont be greedy and respect this 0,01 lot / 1000€ or drawdown will wipe your account

An excellent start, on looking at the chart Phillip Lee is the EA working as planned, I can see the logic in the volatility and protecting the former trades as there taken, D

What a great sight, came home just as intended, set the TP to 5 and done as intended, looking at the panel it doesn't seem to reset, maybe a bug to look at, anyhow the cycle is over and the new one should start, happy D.
EDIT
Must say at the end the account was maxed out with no more orders to be taken, chances are the profit may have came sooner with more orders but nevertheless the desired result was had and profit banked, D

Phillip, I have adopted the $5 approach as per your back test, the more profit looking to be gained could well open multi positions, the account was maxed out as I stated and no more positions could be taken, then the $5 profit hit, be aware that the more you look for in profit, possibly, the more positions, (not you personally), just an observation, if trading this live it could well be a downfall that can be avoided, hope this helps with forward testing, D

Feel like I'm dominating the thread but don't mean too, on the chart there has been no "next pending order lines" there was when the EA was placed on the chart, just an observation, D

Correct !

But harsh reality check guys...
Using Philip Lee's settings,90% modelling quality.
With a fully year back test (2016) with 0.01 lots profit 21% with a drawdown of 27% .... sounds ok,but that was on a £10000 account ! that test also had a massive 96 open trades ! That makes me very uneasy.
Also take into account,running hours 0-24 you will get ridiculous spreads on some of these hours so time to get busy testing settings on long term back tests and not using 3 or 4 months.

Please test 2016 year and we can then compare settings and results.
