DislikedPotatoe,
I have just completed two weeks worth of backtesting, while this is no where near complete the intrim results are that AUD is very whippy, and so far the runners are rare.
I wont post the results yet, I will post montly backtesting results as I finish them. However I am still forward testing it
My trade from today so far.Ignored
DislikedThe nice thing about backtesting aud is adjusting my expectation on the pair. Its an odd one, but certainly can make money off it, so far the two weeks netted 20% return(btw, EUR can return this in a week using this method so that is how whippy and slow AUD can be) I want to see what the results are month in month out to get an average.Ignored
DislikedHave you reduced your stop size (and therefore increased your load) en0x? This will of course change your % return.....Ignored
DislikedIts a doubled edged sword, reducing your stops to basically a random number with no meaning(stops not outside heat) then you will get stopped more often...Ignored
DislikedThere shouldn't be anything random about it. I've said before that the AUD moves approx 65-75% of the Euro. Below is an example (my 2nd trade for the day) - 16 pip risk on this one.....Ignored
DislikedShodd, are you adding spread +3 on your price?
16 pips = 20 pips for me, not sure how I am going to lessen this...
my position size is based on a median of 20 pips for hard stop. I dont ever hard set it but some trades are riskier (greater then 20 pips) and some are less.
AUD is an expensive pair for me on Oanda.
BTW, I am not questioning you , just trying to figure out how you are making the SL less because I dont see how this is possible.Ignored
