{quote} Good morning. We're experiencing red days. Is it due bad settings? Or is it only red period? Every trading method has red periods. I'm curious ... Take care.
I think it may be the usual volatility experienced in December which makes trading in this period of the year unsuitable.

Yes this is true. Anyway, the original BTM method with C (JFC) indicator was performing last days badly too.

it's normal, i already said, btm strategy its like this from the first day, when you have positive week thats mean 20-30% per week( if you have lot settings=your account/10000(1000 account=0,1 lot)) and usually was 2-3 positive weeks, then market punch you hard and red weeks come.

if you wanna test this strategy proper you have to test with same settings at least 2-3 mouths, dont change settings because everything you test till this point when you change settings is meaningless.
ok now we have three red weeks in the row, its nothing (you have 52 week in year).

just my opinion for someone who wont test. Wait for very positive day- day after put EA with lot setting (account/10000),- wait for ea make 50-60%- change setting to minimum lot and wait for red weeks, when first red day punch you hard close EA and wait for positive day
TIP: if EA make in one-two days 30% turn off for this week, from my experience very positive day mean red weeks are close

now iam waiting for positive day.
patience, patience, patience and after that more patience

Hi. I added two additional <TradingStrategy> tags to JF4XTrader.xml. With other parameters and magiсs of course. Then I opened three charts and launched three copies of JF4Xtrader. On each copy of the bot, it was noted in the log that the settings of the last <TradingStrategy> tag in order were applied. Well, then I manually changed the magics I needed on the States tab. In the log I noted that the magic has changed. There are no errors. Every 15 minutes, the data on the dashboard is trying to change. Nonsense.
Even positions were opened, but the MaxTodays.....ForSymbol filter was ignored.
What am I doing wrong?

The trade was filtered out.

Only a technical note. Touching the pound today isn't a good idea ...

If you have done all the right thing while loading the EA, and have no errors in the logfile, just wait to the right conditions are met.

Firstly, I've got a question. Were you using JF4XTrader in simple way? The way which is described here? In the first post?

I can see that you're trying to use advanced stuff. However you aren't able to understand basics.

This is right. You can do this.

Why? Put only one EA on one chart. That one EA will be trading those three strategies.

If you want use advanced stuff you have to be accustomed with basics. I'm not able supporting these attempts. This is a free project.

Thanks. Yes, in a simple way everything works fine. I'm here from the start. I just wanted to run three forward tests with different settings in parallel.

You can do this. Your XML seems to be OK. Simply put EA on the one chart.

In this deployment of JFFramework I didn't test this advanced stuff. At least till now. So, you might get to the trouble with it.
