Hi Claudia,

See my last AUDJPY stats (scenario #3).

I tested and tried already. The idea is good, but measured over a large sample size of trades it has no positive effect (and nor has "trade away from the daily open" and a gazillion others).

Cheers,
LuXing

Maybe we trading different settings as on my live account it has a good win rate - last night for example. I have a win rate of 60% + with r:r around 1.5 on that pair - happy with that. Long way to go and not the best of times of year for this sort of testing.

ADR is a good idea which was in the original specification. Hour to close is also a good idea.

We getting there - see what the genius from Munich comes up with at the weekend !

Keep the music going !

We are indeed trading different settings, as the last published version of the EA does not have TP as % of ADR, nor close out at xx:yy hours features that I used (yet).

My test settings were:
Box range from 0:30 - 01:30 GMT
Min/max range 5 pips / 20 pips
TP: 80% of the ADR (5 days) and SL 15% of the ADR (5 days)
Move SL to BE at 15 pips, close trade on hitting TP or alternatively at 20:00 GMT

A win rate of 60% with RR of 1:1.5-ish is actually very good, but I would be curious to see if it holds over 100+ trades !
If you don't mind, would you tell us "your" AUDJPY settings ? I would like to backtest them over a long run.
However, if you'd rather keep 'em to yourself, no worries.

Nothing else just let it go.

Thanks Claudia.
I ran a test using these settings (using a min/max range of 5 and 50 pips).
Here's what gives, using 10 grand starting capital and a fixed 0.5 lots position size.

I could of course be wrong, but based on almost 1500 trades I don't think it's going to fly.

You seem hung up on back testing a/j - just one pair that works right now. These markets are dynamic and what happened 1500 trades ago is a different world away and means nothing.

I filter across 30 pairs not just a/j. Read the thread.

Yes - I am no coder but I have read enough warnings to cast doubt on the efficacy of back testing or looking into the past. Forward, live, testing/trading as you and others are doing here is surely the preferred and effective way.

lol. If anything, today I am more hungover than hung up.
Any instrument that could contribute in a positive manner to smoothen the equity curve in a breakout portfolio has my interest.
AUDJPY is no exception.

Agreed. The market is dynamic. I do not agree that what happened xxx trades ago is different and that it means nothing.
I trade off statistics, frequency distributions, gaussian curves, standard deviations, and a host of statistically robust ways of measuring performance.
Your statement shows that you clearly don't use these statistics (which is fine). You filter pairs, but do not translate that to a rule based environment (i.e. "explain" to a robot why trade/not trade a pair). That's fine too. Semi automatic discretionary trading vs. full auto. We have a different approach, that's all.

I am no coder, I am a trader. To me, back testing is merely a "proof of concept", a mere indication.
Back testing cannot take things like slippage, spread widening, sigma 6 events and a host of other factors that reflect real market conditions into account. From my point of view, there is and there never will be anything like trading a strategy with real money. Having said this, trading the break of instrument AAA in time frame BBB, using a range of CCC, stoploss DDD, take profit EEE is a simple concept. It's not very spread sensitive, has a 50/50 hit rate and its success is reliant on days a pair really starts "motoring" in the right direction.
But, if unleashing a black box (rule based, with no discretion whatsoever) trading an instrument using the exact same criteria, measured over an extended period with a representative sample size yields consistently negative results in the past... Well... What can I say ?
The earth is flat and the robot name "Claudia's Dreams" is aptly chosen ? Or would it be safe to assume that the likelihood of 10 years of negative results in the past will all of a sudden result in abfab things.

Do you really think I did not read all posts in this thread - there are not many - forward and backward since my first post the day the thread was opened ?
Is this really the only thing you can come up with ?
More snobbing and not a very constructive comment from your side.

I received the last (not yet published) version of the EA from the OP this morning for testing, debugging and more input.
Did you spend, like I did, 8 hours on this version of the bot so far ?
In view of your attitude, it does not make much much sense for me to invest more time in this project - partially your project - right ?
I mean, for f***'s sake, I don't even get the bots name right.

Once again you miss the whole point.

It's all about how the trade is managed once it's entered - does your 10 year back testing reflect this ?

That was the next piece of the puzzle I was going to forward to the coder. The most important part.

I'll keep that little secret now.

Bye bye.

Ok...I haven t the time like many people to discuss...I the week I have to study and weekend coding....
How i work is here:
https://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=801938
i am simply interested to have a good result in the end...it is not a thing if claudia OR luXing is the better trader....it s about making money the best way and not waste time to write unneccessary words here...
The last: I gave LuXing the version 3.0 to test out HIS new features i coded into this version...NOT to have a version here for all with errors...
The very last: Everyone s invited here to test...AND test with 99% backtests if possible etc...I m coding also a tester which shows in 0.1 seconds the results of distinct parameters...
-> Please: Let z focus on the EA!
Finished!

This is exactly why a lot of knowledge is kept to ones self. You are trying to work on solutions and find a tradeable edge.
Much rather work with a coder of your talent one on one and accomplish some things instead of having to deal with trolls and the like.


Many Pips!
