Iceman,
Could you please have sub headings? I am new at this and I don't understand what the numbers mean. Thanks

fxfury: I've made the backtests to choose the range bar size between 2012. jan 1. and 2012 apr 19. Then on the 2 best performing range bar setting I've made a test between 2010. jan 1. and 2012. apr 19.
I've then choose the better performing range bar size, and made optimization runs (one for ichimoku settings, one for breakeven and jump stop settings, and one for take profit setting) between 2011. oct 1. and 2012. apr 19. Only optimized on 6 months, because the optimization is a massive amount of backtesting - somewhere around 2500-3000. So it may only take about 1-2 minutes more to make a year or 2 years of backtesting, but if you multiply that 1-2 minute by 3000 than that means 25-50 hours more time to finish the optimization.
I cannot show you a summary of the trades taken, because during the optimization there are no results or reports for the individual settings.
I've posted the settings of the EA I made. I don't know why the set file I posted doesn't change the ichimoku settings in the EA - or maybe there is a misunderstanding here, the set file changes the EA settings, but you have to change the cloud and candle settings manually, if you want to visually check the trades (the EA doesn't use the indicators, it has a built-in ichimoku indi I think).
If there is no take profit set, then the trade will be closed when the price hit the stop loss. The stop loss is changed on every candle to follow the cloud, so this means, that the trade will be closed, when the price enter the kumo again.

AbhijetPandi: The set files are for the EA only, if you use the cloud and the candle indis, then you have to set those manually based on the EA's settings.

A note to the results: I started the AUDUSD pair only on wednesday evening, so there was 3 trades missed from the begining of the week. Those trades would made around +40-45 pips profit.

I am not very impressed with the results. I suggest we use settings by Iceman and TP only 20 pips. That would be fast and quick money everyday

as i have mentioned in my previous post #196 , iceman settings are really good....giving me 70 to 100 pips...however due to trailing stop i am not able to bank all those entire pips on every day.....

on other hand, Zool settings are quite good in long run which i am going to try in coming weeks.

anyhow, thanks to seller9, for coming up with this good EA code. it doesn't matter if i have code or not.....I am also running seller9's PRS_v1 ea on my live account.

#1

I am trying to find out EA, after i have used rob booker's wallaby EA on live account. I am only trying to find out EA, which should be consistent in the profitabl on everyday basis, even it it is 10 pips per day.

Since some are having problems getting the Range Bars going I put together this package of everything needed to hopefully get you up and running along with a document showing one way to do it.

By no means is this the only way to do this so don't jump all over me for showing this way to do it.

I believe there are some scrpts out there that will also populate your history, I have tried a couple with so so success.

Version u8 is also included in this zip folder if you want to update, the changes made are just 2.

1) Fixed the label problem...
Just a quick note/question here... when you follow the setup here, using range bars, you don't get equal size range bars??? Is there something I am missing about range bars???

Shouldn't the offline charts have candles of same size ???

You have to change the settings in the indicators only if you want to visually check the trades the EA make. The EA works even if there are no indicators on the chart.

I will run the EA on the 4 pairs that I posted the optimized settings on the next week too. I had no free time this week to do backtestings and optimizations. On the next couple of days I have to do some urgent work, but after that I hope that I will able to do more pairs, because I see long term potential in this system/EA.

I will post the set files for the EA and the template I use tomorrow, since it's really late here and I have to sleep soon to be able to work tomorrow

I can't agree more than what you've said...

I hope we all keep working until we find that optimised settings, which can be more than one for each pair, but still one of the settings can be no matter what the market is behaving like...

Thanks all for their hard work.. and you sleep well my friend...
