{quote} Christmas Bot has daily trend set to true. Meaning, once the daily went long, it won't cost average shorts in anymore. The daily trend restricts these additional trades. See HERE (http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?p=7091863#post7091863).

I have made a staistic about 6 pairs: EURUSD, EURJPY, GBPJPY, AUDUSD, NZDJPY, GBPUSD
The christmas bot is running on my demo account by Oanda (http://www.forexfactory.com/brokers.php?broker=oda).

Running time: 13. nov. 1:34 am - 15. nov. 15.09 pm
Total lot: 1.03
Starting ballance: 905.17 Euro (not 1000, because on this account was running another EA before 13.nov. This EA stoped before Xmas bot was starting.)

Here is the statistic:

Hi Armaros

you've got the very impressive results.

I have quick question regarding your broker, oanda..

I believe that the OANDA doesn't allow the hedge scheme..and how come you could use this EA with them..

If I have wrong idea, please fix me..

and do you use any VPS service for this, or use on your computer 24/7?

thanks in advance..

Hi xdongx,

yes Oanda doesn't allow the hedge. I just put to the chart this impressive xmas bot (as Magix said), and I got this result after 3 days. I checked the tradelist one more after your post, but I don't see trade close because of no hedge.
I hope Magix will inform us about this.

So, I used my PC 24/7. And I put into the autostart (win7) the metatrader and if my PC restart (autoupdate etc.) the EA will continue.

Next week I will test 2-3 more pairs, and will run my demo account more 5 days. I hope next weekend we will see a nice stat.

If you are only seeing what is in the red, you are missing the rest of the spectrum.

The idea behind working with the trade explorer and myfxbook is to be able to get a better overall picture of what is happening...

JPY went on a bit of a rampage last week, and trading against it without use of the daily trend is a little ugly to be sure. But that's not taking into account the other pairs traded.

A quick look at a custom analysis show the USD crosses playing a lot nicer.

If you have a look at these and decided which pairs you wanted to work with, which ones would they be?

I am not sure what you are asking.

Stats look great!

Anyway you can break these down to have a closer analytical look at the big picture will help.

Having a look at what RisingSun posted in his analysis(HERE (http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?p=7094027#post7094027)), he has it broken down by levels. This too can help build the dream team of pair traders. Stick with high close rates and the ones to have hit the lowest levels to try and keep DD minimal, or move to the higher level traders to increase risk and profits.

Both are excellent examples of tracking progress!

Regarding Oanda, their MT4 will allow you to do backtests and demo with hedging, but not live. I've run many EA backtests on Oanda because for some reason it doesn't inject weird swap rates during the weekend off-hours like the other brokers do (ex: FXDD). As Darkforce as recommended though, I would pick a broker to forward test with that will allow you to hedge (ie: non-U.S.) and has higher leverage than Oanda (which is capped at 50:1).

I don't believe it was ever mentioned that trades have to be closed because a broker doesn't allow hedging. There was some mention of adapting a strategy for those who are stuck with no-hedge, FIFO brokers but the subject got dropped. Probably because it's far simpler to just open an offshore account without these limitations and high leverage to boot (I've seen 1000:1, crazy).

Hey All Christmas Bot traders,

I have released a test version of a grid trader as suggested by moncsicsi78.

Details and EA can be found, HERE (http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?p=7094944#post7094944).

I am still working on Christmas 2, but haven't been well this weekend and have spent most of my time in bed.

Will try to get it finished up for tomorrow.

Thanks for the update, Dietmar!

Looking good so far. Let's see how the week plays out.

The original managed to keep from exploding on a $200 start up, will be interesting to compare the results from both.
