Stochs was the In-Between-er.

Only tripping an M15 trend, 7 pairs...zero wrong with this action.

Any day above dirt, as they say!

Once I get the tap out sorted, I'd be willing to run the NN on this again. Go back to double these profits on a daily basis and a tap out for when the shit hits the proverbial fan.

Looking good boss. Good to see you back.

My little time in testing shows stochs2 is a beast. No DD issues but good profits.

Hybrid 1.2 default settings also really good, DD occasionally larger than life but recovers well even in large trends. That's even using fixed lot.

Hybrid all in one? Still on the search for optimum settings.

All in all, stochs2 has won my heart thus far. Lol.

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! {image} 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! {image} 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...
Sounds exciting, looking forward it.

I have a spare VPS that I can help test on, just give me a shout if you need help testing.

Some coordinated parallel test would give much more faster feedback for further improvements.
I have 1 Free VPS too which can handle 4 MT4 to test.

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.
Welcome back! Hope you have a good rest!
I am in. and look forward to the good things!!!

Due to the current currency volatility I'm always trying to go flat into the weekend...thus I just closed my TE manually.

Happy weekend, jdva

Nice looking comeback for the buzzsaw.

I did add in a little extra logic to help extend the profiting on it and though it would most likely have still taken the losses on the CAD exodus, the recovery has been incredible.

For trading 28 pairs, .01 lot size start and a fixed cost average...not blowing up being the goal...has been actually pretty kewl to watch.

Magix I wanted to ask is it possible or do you think its a good idea to have the EA cost average out both buy and sell positions together?

The reason why I ask is that I've noticed many times the EA will open both buy and sell positions within a few pips of each other, then the one will go to profit, and the other will go to loss, but perhaps if the EA could take both buys and sells together when cost averaging out it could help to keep the DD and risk low?

You can see an example below.

7 pairs on the Buzzsaw looking a little better and better in that it never got a mudhole stomped into it's ass by the CAD exodus...

I never made the same profiting changes to this version so, it may have actually done a little better if it had...still a little early in testing to tell.

The only area that stands out as particularly troubling on this - red circle - is the area where I needed to correct coe.

Besides that, been pretty stellar.

I have tried something similar in that when the market changed, it would stop cost averaging in the counter trend and only cost average in the trend.

Now, I know this isn't exactly the same as you are asking, but...

The eventuality was that it finally ran out of available trades as per the broker maximum trades of 200, and this was only cost averaging in the winning direction...

The "Drag the Dead" was set to cost average out the losers and close ALL TRADES once were in profit. It was pretty exciting and fairly effective, but during a whippy market, it locked up so many positions that it choked off the logic from being practical.

This being said...I've come a long way in coding trend recognition and some fairly great advancements in profiting, so...having another look at this approach may not be a terrible idea.

The Hybrid...

Though not really challanged much this week on any single pair, did have 16 pairs in trade and seen no remarkable draws or extreme holds against the account.

I believe the largest draws - that I've seen - were today on USDJPY and it has rebounded from this $300 draw to less than $100, and closing all trades into the weekend would really only negate today's gains.

It's been a fairly unremarkable market week, but still good for testing.

A couple of quick coding changes were required on this but results would be fairly similar if not exact to what is current.

Stochs3 a rather quiet week for the M15 Trend Only Signal being used.

No huge gains...No huge draws...just a nice simple climb in equity.

Not shown in a TE and only an idea I have been fucking around with is more of a Time Based Trader.

Still a lot of ideas to work through, and may get a lot more fucked before it gets any better...

This was launched on initially on the Magic 7 and is now up to 18 pairs.

The idea...take the direction from 1 hour before NY Roll Over and take a position based on that.
After that...only allow either cost averaging at NY open - if required - and look to exit positions with the tap out logic or close at NY Open - depending on if profitable or in loss...

Interesting to note...$150 start account, and though holding around $20 in draws, has actually been effective.

Now will be to try and take the best of the ideas.

Time - Session.
Trend and cost averaging methodology.
Tap Out and Profiting.

And see if I can drop these motherfuckers into a single player!

I don't see that happening this weekend, and there still is a lot of testing on these ideas that need be done, just thought I'd keep everybody in the loop as to my current directions.

Happy Weekend!

I need to do a little housekeeping on these before release...

The parameters are hard coded and the logic...well, still needs some verification and cleaning for efficiency.

Some great work you've done this week Majix and thanks for sharing.....

Looking forward to the future releases especially if you can keep the DD in check and still maintain profits with the tapout function or similar

Cheers

Over 8% for Stochs3, and 17% for Hybrid 2 in 1 week is nothing to be disappointed about!

The top hedge funds are happy to get 5% for the whole month lol..

Looks great! Finally a wee bit of time to get following along here again!

An idea that crossed my mind that you may or may not have considered particularly in the case of trading 28 pairs: Perhaps using the entire group as a pool to offset bad trades with good ones could be a strategy to look at rather than trying to do this independently pair by pair. By this I mean closing out negative trades of X pair with plus trades of y pair. I guess you could consider this kinda like a stop to break even type strategy using the entire pool. I assume this would involve some rather fancy coding but may be a way to avoid big draw downs..... On the other hand, this type of strategy may just end up treading water - just depends on how good the triggers are and when they are implemented. Just a thought.
