DislikedHi Tread and THV Test Crew,
attached some trades taken on M5. Seems ok but my gains are wiped out by my 1 or 2 losses.
Also entries are always too late and exits often too quick.
Attach also my set files.
Any input or help greatly appreciated.
Thanks for the good work. Rewards comming soon.Ignored
I think late entries are because of your MTF setting, when you set upper time-frames with closed candles, sometimes you miss the move on 1min or 5min because the EA is waiting for the upper time-frames to close their candles. Try your setting with MTF with open candles, for example MTFTrixDot1=200M15.
Other reason for late entries can be SlowTrixDirection, ignore this one and check it.
I have some suggestions too, test your EA on one pair or compare the result of each pair differently. I run my setting just on eur/usd to be focused, I also test different setting on five fixed days for example from 17 to 22 of January, when I come to a satisfying result then I run it on different days.
One more thing, try to use PriceCrossIchimoku or MTF Ichimoku, this will filter many false signals.
And last, for the start use fixed TP and SL for example 10pip for SL and 10pip for TP, don't confuse yourself with trailing stop, partial exits and other factors.
EDIT: If you want to use MTF Ichimoku, notice that the setting is different from Ichimoku on current time-frame, but you can change it if you want.
Good Luck
