HA_Rider (A Robots Lab EA)

@ Traffex:

I couldn't quote your post (something not right from FF side).

Anyway, you said :
"Today I used the settings of Rooi (post #93) with an Equity Loss Percentage of 50.0.
All 15 pairs opened trades, but closed when a loss of 10% was reached (Demo account about 4000 €, Loss about 400 €) ??? "

My Explanation :

  1. Equity Loss Percentage is the Maximum loss that can be endured through an HA_Rider Cycle. However an early exit with less loss can happen if:

    1. A Reverse Signal appear
    2. a SL is hit (if SL is enabled)

  2. Equity Gain Percentage is the Maximum gain than can be enjoyed through an HA_Rider Cycle. However an early exit with less gain can happen if:

    1. A Reverse Signal appear
    2. a Trailing Stop is hit (if Trailing is enabled)

No guts, no glory

Thank you abokwiak.

All trades opened simultaneously at 00:03 and closed simultaneously at 02:30, so no SL/TS of single pairs. And a Reverse Signal within a D1 period ?

Again: I used Rooi's settings (see his last post).

Hi, Traffex,

Rooi's settings include SL, but I agree that it will be rare that SL for all pairs where hit at the same time.

If it's not too much trouble, can you post the settings you used, And post also the current time in Market Watch at your MT4 terminal.

Your settings looks OK. And your MT4 time is also OK (we are still in the same daily candle).

So far, I can not tell what exactly happened and why those orders were closed.

a copy of journal would help if you still have it.

EDIT : I hope that you don't have another EA active on the account besides the HA_Rider

" EDIT : I hope that you don't have another EA active on the account besides the HA_Rider "

I think that was it. I have a chart, on which - I thought - is only a trade report, but I found there also an HA_Rider 05 with H1 settings.

Many thanks for your patience.

As for the error messages during closing :
Don't worry about them,
this happens because multiple instances of the HA_Rider are RACING to close the open trades.

I will get red of them in next release.

Hello people,

Please find below the HA_Rider-v6 Setfile. I have taken the liberty of updating it to REFLECT, as closely as possible, the SAME settings I use in the attached Trade Explorer demo account above.

- Daily Chart

- $1,000 = 0.10

- Target = 30% of Equity (***Note: This setting should IDEALLY reduce as your Equity Increases...e.g. 15% once Equity = $2,000. ***Note for AB: A "solution" for this would be adding an option for the User to Input a FIXED amount to target, that way we can simply target $300 consistently until Equity reaches $2,000 and THEN change Lotsize to 0.20 and Target to $600...etcetera).

- Close All = 60% DD (of Equity)

*Please note: I STILL recommend using FIXED Lotsizing as against a Percentage of Equity (if using my Setfile). The reason is that: With Percentage Equity while your account stands the advantage of growing "faster", your risk remains the SAME (daily) as your account grows. Whereas with Fixed Lotsizing, your risk reduces as your account grows BUT your account won't grow quite as "fast" as when using a percentage of Equity. Your choice.

These settings may be changed as we move ahead.

Regards,

Ty

{quote} Unbelievable : 40% in 2 days.

Hope this can continue

I was not constantly monitoring it the account but it never pushed out to more than $150 in open DD when I checked so that is about 12-15% of account.

Looking forward to seeing how it continues.

I am done for the week with this as I am going away tomorrow afternoon for the weekend and will be around but not trading this system.

Next week we will go for it again

Khalil what a nice EA.A lot more optimizing and testing to be done but it works just like it was coded to.Thank you very much

Perfect man!

Lol - with a Live account I suspect that a lot of traders will RUN AWAY from $1,000 = 0.10 or 40+% in TWO days!

Besides that, you can expect pretty much VERY similar behaviours trading Live (speaking from my experience with trading other systems).

I agree.

Risk is very big at the moment

If trading with same setting as now I will start with $100 in the account just so that there is no emotion evolved or any panic.The risk is set pretty high at the moment but for now I'm not looking at low risk setup with this EA.It looks like it can be pushed pretty hard but time will tell

Lets give it some time and wait to see when the EA doesn't do so well or when it has a rough day or two etc.

So far so good though
