It’s strange. In the settings it appears "... BuyVolume="0.1" SellVolume="0.1 ...", but in fact all the orders in the screenshot have a volume of 0.01 /

I'm watching the old BTM thread, are you sure that stop loss must be set @ s1 and s2 (long trades) ? I seem the only stop is @ s1 for both positions.
Good morning.

I'll create for this a new setting.

By default:
(1) buy trade sl1 & sl2 = s1
(2) sell trade sl1 & sl2 = r1

Your feedback was very valuable. Thank you very much.
Take care.

{quote} I know where you get this concept but I dont think it is a good idea: - One H4 candle contain 16 M15 candles, so when we trade M15 tf with trend of 20 H4 candles before, it is a reliable trend. - But M15, M30 and M5, they are "closer", TMA band will change direction very fast, there will be a lot of false signal and there will be perfect but "fake" signals, like sell one on your picture above.
Yes

Hey how about change period of TMA m30 and m15 bigger? Same as using TMA H4. How about using M1 instead of m5 and m15 to trade? more stupid idea.
Yes. This is the danger. Still adding something else without proper test of previous stuff.

Stick with Joe' steady improvement, dont greedy bud.
In the next new version (v1.03) we'll be pretty near to original BTM trading approach. I think.

Thank you for helping me.

{quote} I guess we would get better entries if we would use M5 time frame and all 3 TMA (M15/M30/H4) pointing in the same direction
You've got all this information in every alert and log output.

I have a suggestion that's useful for those traders that use this system and EA manually to open orders. in this strategy we use m15 TF chart and when we have a new signal we have only 15 minutes to discover and analysis signal and for whatever reason if we miss the signal and alert, it's hard to find and discover it. sometimes after a signal appears, price goes to pullback and we have time to enter a trade opportunity several bars(candles) later. as a suggestion, we can have a new column on right side of Sgn column that shows a number per row for each symbol. it shows how many bars(candles) ago we had a signal for that symbol. every time a new signal appeared, that number becomes zero. Regards
The suggestion has been noted.

However, a new column will be added in a new version 1.03. When a new trend has been established for the first time.

Thank you for helping me.
All the best.

By the way "Closed Manually" is very valuable and important information in your results.

We can see that half of your winners has been closed manually. And no loser has been closed manually.

Please be careful with Inputs tab.

Settings from Inputs tab are "global" to all strategies.

Anyway, for now we're using only one strategy.

Only a note.

It’s even weirder to duplicate the same parameter in two different places. This only leads to confusion.

Nothing is duplicate.
It's global value for all trading strategies.
The only one reason for this input is strategy tester. Don't use it in regular usage.

Ill test it next week, is it possible to change signal TF to M5 in XML file?
May I run 2 XML files (M15 and M5) with different magic number?

No.

The BTM strategy is based on M15/H4 periods. Firstly we need test thoroughly basic BTM concept. We cannot get distracted with unproven ideas.

I've finished recovery system. The JF4XTrader should be able to recovery after it has been removed/re-attached from/to chart.

So, stop loss should be moved appropriately for desired opened positions.
