MA Cross Optimization EA (very cool)

huh?

what?

Hi tdion nice work
I read your thread while I was working on MA Cross some time before then I fell on a highly profitable EA+Optimization combination
I highly recommend it if you're interested in MA Cross

EA used: MA_cross_Method_PriceMode by Duke3D [attached]
My parameters are:
JPY H1 with MA1_Period = 12, MA2_Period = 44, default for the rest

Backtesting Results:
I use high quality 1 min data from fxdd 90% modeling
I use a different way of testing than most here in the forum
I tested individually on 40 months from DEC06 to MAR10

Initial Deposit: 500$
Percentage of winning months: 68%
Average Net Profit per month [inc. losses by losing months]: 218$
Percentage of months where Balance < 250$ : 15% [6 over 40]

I choose the minimum deposit amount to better assess risk
I test individual months simply because I think that the order of the events/patterns happening during several years renders the testing very specific to one particular sequence
Therefore breaking the sequence and taking months individually increases the sampling quality

Attached are the results details
For those who prefer the "traditional" way of testing I've also attached back-to-back straight test results for DEC06-MAR10
Cheers!

[quote=M.A.C.Doug;2107857] "......the market is dynamic and does not continue to repeat the past...." I have to disagree with this statement fellow trader, because I found that even the price or PA are dynamic in nature, by using appropriate MA, EMA and specific standard indicator in MT4/5, the pattern will repeat, I repeat.."Will Repeat" the similar pattern, again and again, even the price has been changed over the period of time. From these patterns, it is where we can choose to trade with. Does, knowing the historical data with some tweaking on prices, will make us learn something about the price behaviour, the potential market directions, the potential pending post area, and the most important, the potential TP target area. Sorry if I have gone over board, but thats the reality of trading....Th Old saying..."we can learn from the past, and not to make the same mistake in the future...."

[quote=centrinos;6227799] Totally disagree......

There are a hoard of traders that have tried this..... none with success..

The "Miner" EA comes to mind off the bat.....

If history does repeat itself as you say, then there will be quite a few more successful traders than 5%.
Why do you think that most EA,s do not work???
Why do most traders fail??

Because they are trading on past dynamics of the market!!!

Perhaps Gvc, you were right, mostly traders they cannot succeed due to lack of knowledge on the battlefield, probably not knwoing well enough how to apply proper trade setting and MM, that works most for them, I don't blame them for that...its our nature to be over optimist towards certain concept, and later jump into conclusion to find ourselves on the losing side. Still, I believe, applying reasonable EMA setting and MM, can help traders to benifit from the market, but this does not mean we are in total control of the situation, example when closely following correct ema pattern and indicators, making mistakes in positoning our money in the market does exist. What I am trying to imply here, when we put some effort to focus on the ema setting, identify its weaknesses (especially the lagging issues), perhaps 75% of the effort can give us profit. I have a screen shot of yesterday trade result, from me live account (not that big, its a mini account) but what I have being doing for the last three months focusing on EMA pattern, did give me some profit. And I guarantee, we can repeat the same success, again and again, so does all traders who believe...... Thats why at this moment I am looking for someone who is kind enough to code this setting into an EA, and we can test this EA, and get feedback from the tester, and overall improve our chances to get better +ve pips in the future. Hope this can help...
