Supernova GBP/JPY Mini Trend Catcher

Hi Folks

2 things.

1) Can anyone take over sntest12? My computer is overwhelmed and it is interfering with my live trading.

2) Rick put a lot of work into the reactive settings and it is my fault we are not testing them. My thoughts were that testing both H4 and D1 on the same platform would give us results that were difficult to interpret (which tf initiated which trade, etc). I was clearly wrong with this line of thinking.

I propose that, for the next round of testing, we run our assigned set files on both H4 and D1 on the same platform (as Rick suggested in the first place). This will leave us with enough test platforms to include the reactive set files in the testing..

What say you ???

Hi Matt,

Not difficult at all. Let's get creative with our MM and see what we can accomplish. The demo's have come back nicely. We are getting some good data as to what works best. And these are just with my backtest settings. We have more tuning to do.

Thanks for all the offers to take over sntest12 but I just realized I am testing the 4H version of that set file on sntest. I just added the D1 set files to separate charts on that platform.

Hi Jeff

Glad to hear the great results.

With Rick's guidance, and the efforts of the testers, we are slowly zeroing in on a consistently profitable EA. Many EA's work well in trending markets but fail miserably during ranging conditions. Hopefully, we will eventually reach a point where Supernova thrives in the former and minimizes losses in the latter.

Hey Bill!

You are right. Actually in a ranging market the 1H TF fared much better than the 4H - the daily was kept out of the business more or less due to "no decision" time.
My live accounts ("s" as I took a second one with 1H and 4H) are either doing well after this week - here the 1H is up - or are at such minor losses that many manual traders may envy the drawdown - here the 4H & Daily setup. Still I would love to compare results later on, as some of the sntests run amazingly well with components that I would have negelcted before.
Somehow my beloved PSAR is not yet behaving as well as I thiought it would. Somehow I lack the insight until now to pinpoint the problem - I only know that it will safe us ALOT as we firgure this one problem.
Hope you all will have a good weekend - I will have to do some financing - promises to be kept there.

Ciao
Matt
