{quote} Nope @Feex, not good. Increasing the time to 23 is bringing more losing trades. Anyway ran both on optimizer. with starting balance of 100, first pass is 8-23 and second is 10-23. It is increasing drawdown. Not worth it. {image} I used Optimiser because we are comparing 2 variables. And running normal backtest, it taking too long on your EA. it is slow.
You need to set Display info to "false" and it runs even faster then PDV.

EDIT: I see FEEX was faster then me to answer.

the effect is that I reduced the work time of an expert by 2 hours, the drawdown almost did not change, and the profit increased

Yes @Feex, but those results are not right. though overall return is good on 8-23.

but results for 10-23 is not good.

I posted the results, they are right results which i have posted. Use time 8-21 which better than 8-23.

I have posted on PDV105, results, those are the settings.

Personally i am on 5% with full leverage. it is working good with low drawdown. happy with my risk appetite.

Time- 7-19
risk-5%
full leverage

trailing stop- 23
step-2

Curve with 23-2 is smoother than others.

8-21 shows a worse result than 8-23 and even more so 10-23

Interesting as in my tests using 40 - 2 had better results than 23- 2.

Also setting a wider SL to 100 instead of 70 had better results.

I'm also not sure why but I'm unable to replicate your results in my back tests using TDS?

23-2 safer option. When I selected the settings for UL 3, I just stopped at two options: 30-2 and 23-2. 30-2 more profitable, 23-2 less profitable, but safer)

Have you updated the settings for GBPUSD in TDS? I personally remove all GMT offset of DST offset to get raw GMT data and then test with that and broker offset of zero.

You don't seem to have the necessary history data for back testing.

ULTRON_PDV_104 Updates: Added 'Full leverage' as a money management option. Added 'Progressive factors' as a lot multiplier. Full Leverage This money management option determines lot sizes as a percentage of the full leverage available for the instrument for your broker. Essentially this works the same way as Feex's calculation in Lite3. This can be risky if there is a long run of losers, but can recover quite quickly when there's a long run of winners. Progressive Factors This is an implementation of the progressive betting strategy that takes...
Paul, if I want each trade has fixed lot size, ie.0.1, not use full leverage in the EA, what should I set the EA?

I mean fixed lot size in the live trade, rather than in backtest.

In my TDS I have my GMT offset set to +2 and the DST is set to US.

Should it be set differently?

On TDS, default if you using dukascopy, it is using 100:1 leverage. I changed it to 500 leverage.

Then I have enabled swap.costs and commissions of $7 icmarkets.

With that, you should be able to get same results. Dates are from 01 March 2018 to 23 March 2019

If am not.mistaken, you leverage in TDS is still 100.
