DislikedFantastic. Thanks.
I cannot be the only one here worried about the Martingale aspect of this system. I would be stunned to discover that I am the only one wanting to convert to an, "I am right or I am out" system that does not rely for its success on doubling up lot sizes every time there is a losing trade.
I am 'worried' about the M in the same way as I would be 'worried' by the knowledge that an asteroid the size of Mars in on an irrevocable collision course with Planet Earth, and that deflection is not an option.

DislikedSteve,
I am setting them up now. NO AA, No Martingale, using Hanover, one using 1hr, the other using daily to determine the trend. Trading size of .1 lots on FXCM.
For the trade exit inputs i am using 30 SL and 30 TP. Is that what you want to test to start of with? No trade management features like JS etc. I just want to be sure before i run them.
Or do you want to run it with OOTB except for no AA, and no M, and just alter the Hanover settings to determine the trend?Ignored
What do you guys think?
DislikedWhat i could do next week, would be setting up EAs with a combinations of:
- 0 slope
- playing with threshold
- w1 or even m1 TF for hannover
- figure out better money management

Here is how I think spider's system will work, and how the EA can do the same:
After all, the system only requires the EU to move 30 pips in one direction every once in a while to net 30 pips overall. Keep on netting 30 pips and the world belongs to you.
If I remember tomorrow, I will post an Elementary Spider EA with all the extra stuff removed, so people can try this easily.
sf is probably applauding warmly whilst reading this. He knows how to make his system work. Never mind; no harm in experimenting, especially when we can have a robot do the work for us.
DislikedI have put Simple Spider into post 1. There is no difference between using this and using Spider with the extra filters disabled, but the inputs list is vastly shorter and easier to read.

DislikedI know demo is only monopoly money, but the consensus is that you should trade it like real money. As such trading Danish, Swedish, Norwegian currencies and Gold and silver is not really suitable for this type of strategy.
Kind regardsIgnored
DislikedFabulous blazko. Many thanks.
I suggest you abandon further testing. Here is what I think:
- spiderforex posited a perfectly acceptable trading model.
- we have done the usual thing, and filtered it until it no longer works
- what was once KISS is now MIRCS (Make It Ridiculously Complicated, Stupid)
