Nice results whip! I've been away from FF for awhile now just enjoying life and am now just really getting back into trading. Can you explain why you went with 3x for the hedge? And where do you choose to start the hedge?

Hi Ob2
The hedge is a large part of the gross profit and is a very short SL…..I try to gather as much as I can before it hits TP and fires a trade in the other direction…..it ends up about 50/50 TP verses BE….
I’ve had the best luck with the hedge starting it at the same value as the UserSelectedBreakoutPips number….
Good luck with it…..It’s a lot of fun

Hello everyone!

I threw the EA onto a chart of EUR/USD at H1, but the EA did not place any trades. It is a demo account at Alpari UK, data at 1-min precision, test started at 2010-01-01.

Did somebody do a backtest of this EA?

Regards,
TraderJF

Thanks Whip, setting up a couple of demos today, I'll share the myfxbook link for anyone who wants to track as well.

Just to make sure, you're using the mptm settings from post#45 and that post's bot version (no change in settings, right?). Also, are you testing on H1 as per the default recommendation?

What I meant was: "didn't see the 'general tab' before you pointed it to me"
Everything's set up and running.

I could set up another demo tommorrow and add it to myfxbook. Is there any other tweak you have in mind that I may help testing?

Good Morning,
I'll run the bot like this for the rest of the month unless something drastic happens......Make whatever changes you would like, just document them on your "General" tab......Enclosed is end of week....

Have a great weekend

Got a demo running like whip's. Seems great so far, but isn't it the mpmt that does the trick? The trades aren't remarkably special, it's the 0.3 hedge that makes the bot profitable. Untill a certain point i guess, untill one of the hedges starts to go bad - like whip's demo is doing now.

So i guess these settings of mpmt can basically make any system profitable?

Good Morning,
Just made an adjustment......I manually deleted runaway GBP/CHF hedge trade and removed the pair......I will probably need to do this a few more times until I get to 5 or 6 pairs that are profitable with this system....
Thanks Ibuks and Steve for the excellent strategy and robot and I hope you both have a great weekend......
