Any chance you are modifying or creating an ea for this method? Would love to give it some testing with you.

Most indicators (particularly the MTF ones) I have seen posted here are inadequate for backtesting (especially visually). You need a little more imagination to accurately visualize the RSI, Laguerre, and other indicator values.



Yes that is an unusual occurrence. No, all do NOT need to be in line at point of entry. At least, that is how I am doing it - can't speak for others.

Both are to low.

In the real world you would never use an RSI lower than 5 but that means less trades.

Look at my current EA, all gains have been wiped out today using RSI of 3.

I see..thats losts of pips back to market..sucks!
Interesting enough I got another set of winners today scoobs with RSI(3). This setting is working out for H1 as long as we are entering above 25 ema. Sure enough there will be losers, but winners far outweigh them..umm..so far!

The AUD/NZD losses could have been avoided with a news filter, right?

Yes, shite happens.


I noticed on the report that there were numerous profitable trades which nevertheless didn't close at the TP.
And some others had profits exiting on SL price--are you using trailing stops now? What happened to les oeufs d'acier?

Do you think that an RSI of 4 will be better maybe?
Best regards!

Wouldnt have mattered. As a test I set it to 5 and I had 6 trades blow within 10 minutes.

When markets go through a consolidation phase and you happen to be on the wrong side then you are dead in the water.

Yes, I did modify the THG EA for my entry criteria (and a few other things). It has been running since 1600 GMT on Mar 15th. Up about 1.7%. Very few trades over the last 12 hours, none imminent.

Preliminary backtests look so-so...exits are a problem.

This thread is a little too crowded for another EA, so I will not post it here. I believe a few others have published versions of THG...I'm sure updates to those EAs will continue.

There is some serious news statements pending for BOJ.

These have no scheduled time slots.

Be very careful trading XXXJPY pairs on a real money account.
