Yop SwingMan, The version 4.2.2, is easily your best version. The expert have less less trades than others before, so more secure. It's the only one who survives a 2 years backtest (2016-2018). {image} {image}
Great reaults, albert666!

Have you tried optimizing and forward testing it?

{quote} And now check please my remark for your private version 4.2.2
That's true, i obtain the same results.

It seems that the version 4.2.2-albert with check price position is the way to go.

Great work !


Here is the backtest (2016-2018) of version 4.2.2 without check price position.

{quote} Dear detector I guess spread of 10 is far to low. Try to calculate with spread 100. See what will happen... :-(
Kofix, are you sure about the spread on the Dow, have not heard a reply back from you, there is more a chance the spread is 10 in play and 60 out of hours, 100 point as you suggested sounds a little steep, D

hahahah, test dax with low TP and Pip positions + 10 spread, you get a 1000% increase in 1 month xd
Thanks for the answer j1mm, D
I don't need to be good at the game, only good enough to beat my opponent,

Hi Guys,

Sorry to inform you all that my father passed away yesterday morning and I will not be able to contribute much over the next few days.

In the mean time, keep up with the testing and I hope version 4.2.2 really does show improvement over version 4.2.1. as claimed by Albert666.

Version 4.2.1 showed an obvious bug in my backtest (or maybe intentionally coded that way???) which only open sell orders although I have turned both buy and hybrid mode on. I gave up back testing it after a few attempts.

Swingman, as to your two questions, I am not in a proper frame of mind to answer for now - please read my detail explanation to Yalgaar at my post 42 (at page 3) to understand and grasp the basic logic/strategy. Yes, under certain circumstances, whether in Hybrid or non-hybrid mode, there will be multiple (staggered) orders opened at the same price level. Please see my aforesaid post 42 - it should be crystal clear from there.

Swingman, keep up the good work and I hope when I get back here in a few days time, all bugs would be at least identified and being removed effectively.

As to the suggestions on improving on the EA, please don't wait for me, so long as you think it is a good & viable suggestion, please go ahead and implement it because at the end of the day, you would have to do all the work of coding it. Just go ahead and do it.

I see you guys in a few days time. Hope you guys understand my situation.

Cheers guys.

Hello SwingMan,

So this morning i started my platforms like always, and the bots 4.2.1 and 4.2.2 are working like expected, they open only 1 sell each one.

It's a good thing.

Thanks for your work !

Philip, my sincere condolences from me as well as from all members in thread.

I have read again your #Post 42, and notice that I have misunderstood some things.
Now, as you have described, I try to program the pending orders and hope that the version will be better than the old one.
