{quote} i wonder, do you take into account the slippage? and do u use spread? if no, need to use commission. also in which timeframe u use this EA in? cuz below H1 tfs are usually more expose to over-fitting. (which means that backtest result will not be the same as the actual result)

profit = profit + m_Position.Profit() - m_Position.Commission() + m_Position.Swap();

Good morning to all! Gepard says:" Strategy: Entry Wait when the price goes up X pips open BUY. If goes down X pips - open SELL. Take profit Close deal on TP Y pips." But... how much is "Y"? Y=X? Thank you

The next thing which will analyze/backtest is using a hedge between n companies' stocks. When a company has huge dept it performs worse (dive deeper down) in a crisis than a company which debt is smaller. And when the market goes out of the crisis - again companies that have less debt recovery faster. So SELL weak company and BUY a strong company. Will try that.

For a stock to be considered liquid, its shares must be able to be bought and sold quickly and with minimal impact to the stock’s price. According to Canadian regulators, a liquid stock is classified as one that is traded at least 100 times per day and has an average daily trading volume of at least $1 million.

I setup live account to trade stock #ABT with 100 USD and leverage 1:1. Strategy: When Weekly RSI <= 75 open 1 BUY order. Check every 1 hour (starting from NewYork session open) - if price up at least 0.7% then take profits. No SL. Max DD 56%. Average position open time 4 days. Max open time 24 days. About 40% yearly profits. Will check liquidity here... Seems about 700k usd daily volume... not 1m... but might work ok. About 15 deals yearly expected here. Will use this as signal for etoro stocks trading...

This applies to any strategy. There are periods when any strategy works fine and then it fails. Idea is to find a strategy that fails for example 3-5 times per year but all the rest it works great. And then aggressively scale when it works and cashout smart (not be too greedy). For example, allocate 1000 usd. Split per 100 usd - charge account. And start the ride. When profits 2000 usd (see backtests/optimizations best target when stop scaling) - cashout and restart on 200 usd. Will backtest this approach now.

{quote} In 2017-18 it was about 2000 BTC needed to move market +/- 5-7%. {quote} Read this: https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...20#post2212020 Especially this: 2. Make sure that EVERYTHING is measurable and defined. If not, then your system will have elements of inconsistency. Wishful thinking prays on these little pockets of testing-inconsistency, and can significantly distort your statistical expectation if you allow it to leak into a system that is crafted with anything less than 100% precision.

Make sure that your sample size is suitably large. Constructing a system over 50-100 or so trades is complete foolishness, and 'curve-fitting', in the negative sense of the word (with the arduous strategy above being in the more positive sense). You are a scientist, and you need enough results to formulate a plausible market theory.
