Hey, Pipptress!

Did you get any results from the Majors and the lame duck crosses? I just wondered: If our exit problems on the short positions are due to the faster and less timeabsorbing moves on the carry trades, then maybe the really long legged moves of the majors are also good on longer timeframes to gather at least a few pips and help us hedging risk.

Idiotic sentence... LOL... do you get my meaning?

No but seriously, now.

Tests completed for chfjpy

Best TF = 4H with no filters gives (the best result) –0.8 pips/mth

With SL of 30 we get an additional 43 pips, so 42 pips/mth

No trailing stop can improve on this.

So, hmmm, 42 pips (these are PIPs not $$ I got confused earlier) per month is not really impressive. Since it’s less than half of the least performing of the pairs I’ve included in my “portfolio”, I won’t be including it.

But gmat, keep me posted about those 6 mini-lots, see how it turns out in the end.

So overall it equates to 42 pips so I am assuming there is some big drawdown somewhere along the line? Because when I look manually at these pairs they seem to give a heck of a lot more

Oh sorry. I realized that you were running the test on the USDCHF only and I thought about the other bunch, that is movinh more, but not behaving like the carries: NZDUSD, USDCAD, EURCAD, EURAUD, AUDUSD, AUDNZD.

Apart from EURAUD I use those for my newstrading every now and then and the EURCAD is quite volatile and by definition no carry.

The USDCAD has been a one-way-street; I might get hard to consider it for future use, as there are voices that each side can live with the parity.

AUDNZD is a perfect barometer for the question who has the upper hand in the relationship of these entwined economies.

NZDUSD can get really volatile if one of the currency is trotting on a mine. Very news sensitive - maybe hard to trade for our EA.

AUDUSD - nearly the same. As there is more real trade (greater numbers of $$) this is the more well behaved pair.

EURAUD - blind shot - lots of trade between the EU and Australia & NewZealand!

Furthermore: Highyield vs. CHF // also carries!

GBPCHF, NZDCHF, AUDCHF

By the way: I have no clue which pairs you have available for testing on mig.

Bssssss...

Are we getting mixed up here.

1. I thought that Pippy just tested USDCHF, as I am long that pair, as described earlier. I wanted to get rid of the template for all the pairs that were tested negative, and then I saw this beautiful setup for a long position on that.

2. On CHFJPY we should surely have more pips, but we have it on our list & tableau, right?

3. Even on USDCHF we may actually be much better manually, and on the other hand, we need to look into the drawdown matter of the EA. Still long there after entering 1.1650 - 89 on 6 mlots and it is now at 1.1869. No end in sight for that. So there is definitely more pips in that, as I am not holding this position for 2 months, but for a week!

Bsssss... no shoot me ... me just a Fliege!! (hint: next word!)

Well you can try and do the tests on your side and see if you come up with the same results (hehehhe just joking since I know you love testing).

But I really did the tests like I usually do. Tell me which TF/set-up you're contemplating and I'll give it a shot.

Here are the result (sorry it's so "long" dunno how to layout pics side by side): EDIT: those are $/mth, not pips/mth BTW) just divide by 0.87 to get the pippage

Here's the graph for usdchf 4H no filters SL 30 no trailing no TP. Graph is similar to the ones I included in my Excel file for all the other pairs, in that they all had drawdowns in apr-may-june, but the other pairs all outperformed this one. Maybe this guy's drawdowns were more important, I don't know.

And don't forget, I'm testing the PAST here and you're looking at the future (well it's the present which actually becomes the past very quickly in reality)

Well, that why you NEED me : so that we don't base the EA on what you want to see LOL but on what is there in front of us
