HA_Rider (A Robots Lab EA)

Hi all,

I'm very interested in the potential of this EA. I have looked through the code and I have a question:

If we have not reached the targeted percentage gain, and one of the pairs have a change in color for HAS. So all the original orders for that pair would be closed and a new chain of orders would be started right?

However, in the code, I noticed that the realized profits/losses are not accounted for. For example, there is a current running profit of 1% and our target profit is 10%. One of the pairs change in HAS color and the orders are closed for a loss of say 0.5% of account balance.

The code to calculate when to close the entire basket does not take into account this 0.5% loss right?

What was the original idea of this strategy? Do we take the realized losses or profits into account for calculation of when to close the basket, be it for a loss or a gain? Or do we simply ignore those losses/gains realized during the lifetime of the basket?

I hope I have made myself clear in the question.

We just spoke on Skype K! Amazing that you decided to stop by - try the BOT man - it is interesting to say the least. I particularly like the FACT that it can be SET however way the User wants.

Hi ...

The EA will be constantly looping to check the account balance, and using whatever it is at the time. So, if you've lost 0.5% of your account, it's this new account balance that will getting factored into the equity gain/loss calculations.

i.e. it is +30% / -30% (or whatever you have chosen) on your account balance at the moment in time the decision is being made.

It is also independent of how many trades remain open ... e.g you started with 10 trades, only 1 is left open, it will still be looking for +/- 30% (or whatever you have chosen).
1 pip at a time ... if the entries are strong, the rest will follow ...

Yes macdh4 it needs to always be connected...if you can, invest in a VPS - especially if you intend to go the "Automation" way.

Also...IMHO there are no "silly" questions really - as long as the question is not "lazy" you are fine!

Very Clear, fanatics.

Currently we neglect those losses.

As I mentioned earlier this is not a Basket Trading EA. It might look like a basket when using multiple pairs, but it is not.
Orders are opened independently, and also closed independently if you enable the SL.
It only behaves like a Basket in the Closing at Gain% or Loss%.

A Basket idea is being discussed at the Robots Lab but it is outside the scope of this thread.

Thanks for your input.

To run this EA that requisites think that the VPS should have?
VPS was new to me, but in this case the EA staying in the VPS and I can turn off my pc and not run risks of lack of energy, lack of internet, am I right?
Thank U
Ok people,

So another Session just Closed (from last night) in profit and since it's just Wednesday today, I'll let the HA_Rider run in the hope that I can snag one more session this week before the week runs out.

Stay tuned?

Regards,

Ty

NB:
By the way, that's 314+% in 22 days!

Yes macdh4 with a VPS you are fully covered. You can even log into your VPS from a Mobile device...etc.

If you are not doing any "heavy lifting", you can go with these specs:

1 core processor
1GB memory
200GB data transfer

If it's too "slow" just go for DOUBLE that - no sweat.

No macdh4, that's not the reason.

Well, let's take this as a quiz,

Who could tell why Rooi cycle was closed earlier than TyLamai, and TayLamai cycle closed before macd4h ???
ALTHOUGH Rooi was aiming for 20% Increase, while Ty was aiming for 10% and macd4h was aiming for only 1% AND ALL were using D1 time frame .

macdh4,

My Broker = 5 Digits

So I have mine set thus:

Min_Pips_Between_Orders=10 (this is just ONE pip away for me. Yes "potentially" will have more positions open this way and that's what I want. But I guess this is also riskier?)

If you set it to 200 on a 5digit broker = 20pips difference. You will probably have fewer positions taken. It all depends on what you want to achieve.

Max_Open_Orders=200 (I just set this to 200 - I doubt that that can ever happen really).

What I want to achieve is:

- More trades from many pairs which would allow me get to my target QUICKLY and with DIVERSIFIED risk.

I hope this makes sense?

Ty
