{quote} I have been testing Hybrid on 3 new pairs this week, and so far they have performed well despite many other TE's crashing this week.2 X AUD pairs. 2 X CAD pairs. 2 X NZD pairs. These are low ADR non USD, commodity base pairs; AUDCAD, AUDNZD, and NZDCAD. I've set them up on M1 with Summ lot at $333 per pair using 0.01. This first week the account made +12% with max DD at 3.3%. Its still early, but considering what a week we had they performed pretty good I think. Time will tell if this will be a good set up long term, but that's...
These last 2 days has not fared very well for the TE and the DD is now at +45%. I figure this is mainly attributed to using Summ lot as in these strong trends the EA adds up the orders, and the Summ lot just compounds the floating losses.
This Summ lot vs Fixed lot debate is also something on my mind a lot these days. Using Summ lot is more profitable than Fixed lot as sometimes on small pullbacks the EA can close out trades to profit, but if using Fixed lot it would take a longer time to do the same thing, however in a strong trend using Summ lot can push up the DD, and drain the account fast, but if using Fixed lot it would not happen as fast, or have as big a DD. So what is the consensus? Take the risk and use Summ lot or keep it slow and steady using Fixed lot?
I also noticed that my account testing on M5, it survived last weeks storm, and even now is doing pretty ok. So this also brings me to question that perhaps trading on M5 is better than on M1? Perhaps having a larger time delay, and step order helps to keep the account more safe?
I think I need to go back to the "drawing board" to find some alternative suitable low volatility, low ADR ranging pairs. Counter trend EA's do not like strong trends, and these days that's all there is in the market it seems.
Maybe slow and steady is the better way too approach using these great EA's, yes running on M1 using Summ lot the profits can add up fast and you can make fast profits, but if the market turns like it did recently, it can blow even faster. Perhaps running on M5 on Fixed lot is the safer less risky approach, yes the profits might not be as much, but the account will grow slowly with lower DD, and more safe, and as an additional trasing tool its enough.
Ok I'm rambling now, let me stop it there... appreciate your feedback and thoughts on this guys.

What if we took an idea or 2 and worked out some of the same issues with market...
What if we coded in a measured trigger with existing backside triggering...
AND THEN!
Dropped it into a PURELY DYNAMIC RANGE trading robot?
Would we have something that could trade 28 pairs, at a fixed lot with $1000 start, without exploding?
Would we have effectively created the TAPOUT that has been shown to be needed?
We Shall SEE!
Watch the Attached TE.
Infant Steps, but well...fuck it!!
With every lesson learned is another piece of the puzzle added.
Couple of developments to get polished up and sent out...I'm still kind of in holiday mode, but starting to get shit figured.
Bare with me...there are some new goodies in the works.

{quote} Ditto that, my brother! Ditto That!! Again...starting stages. Should still get an idea of what's cooking with this and the risks involved...just need to run it across the board is all.
A little while back you mentioned you were checking out the code and logic of Stochs2, and found some errors/things, and you were going to fix it up, and send it out.
I wanted to ask if you did the same with Hybrid All In? I mean did you take a look at it as well and do some mods/edits etc?
Hybrid is still my fav lol.. This EA truly is a Beauty and a Beast, it can make or break you if not treated right haha..

{quote} Magix good to see you back, hope you enjoying your holiday and time off.
Given the latest market presentation, it seems only prudent to release a completed code on Stochs2, much the reason I haven't up until now.
But YES...Hybrid is going under a bit of a face lift on trend recognition and will have the Tapout feature available...still working on those deets.
Here's an idea of the running version over the last couple of days...red circles are the taps...still need to run the same ideas through the Stochs mill.

PS...pending how Bitch and a Buzzsaw works out... This might just kickstart the next $5 donation thread. Literally...it's pretty fucking kewl, some of the best ideas of bracketed trading thrown together...and suited to a lot more conservative accounts. Once the logic is presented, manual triggers or full auto can be employed...or...with a few ideas worked together on Hybrid, there may just be a full on: Low Medium High Risk setting.

Welp...that was an exciting first day in market for the Buzzsaw.
CAD pairs were definitely not friendly...all losing pairs missing the exit by fractions of pips!
But...watching this motherfucker dig into over 100 positions, gain 4% and not blow up is a sign of things to come.
Currently sitting about Flat...and ready for another run!
Now...this is only really a maiden voyage for this motherfucker, so there's bound to be some room for improvements and might even just boil down to the time of day running...is it maybe best to just keep this idea running during for new positions and let it manage them out?? Is it better to select sessions as are relevant?? Is there additional logic that can be employed to keep this safe??
Or...perhaps just stick to the Magic 7 pairs.
I mean...check this shit out.
On my low floater account, running for the same session actually made out like a fucking bandit!
Lots to get sorted on this and then have a few additional hands on deck with testing.
