Hi Dave,

I downloaded datas with the Tick Data downloader. I was wondering if you download them it with UTC+2 and no weekend data. And how is the UTC to MT4 Offset from the Strategy Optimizer affecting the strategy optimisation. How should I choose the correct option?

Thank you.

Hi Dave, I downloaded datas with the Tick Data downloader. I was wondering if you download them it with UTC+2 and no weekend data. And how is the UTC to MT4 Offset from the Strategy Optimizer affecting the strategy optimisation. How should I choose the correct option? Thank you.
I understand that the latest version of Tick Tata Downloader has a provision for UTC correction so if you are using that data adjusted for your brokers time shift, you don't need to adjust it again with Strategy Optimizer. You should only use 1 min data with Strategy Optimizer as it builds it's own tables for the other timeframes.

1 min data tables (unadjusted) are provided at Post #1.

Be aware that any time of day considerations do change on Mar 8 when daylight saving was reintroduced in the US so if you are using time of day, you will need to run 2 tests, for example, UTC +2 up to Mar 7 and UTC +3 after Mar 7. This would apply only if you are using the Time and Day filter for back tests.

Hello Dave,

Today I saved one of my optimisations as set file and I imported it in MT4, but the values are not as in the Strategy Optimizer.

Please download the latest version of Strategy Optimizer ver. 1.3 and redo your optimization and save it again. Please check before posting.

Guys and Girls
Can I please sincerely ask if you have a problem, please PM me rather than cast doubt upon the new posters. Put yourself in my position where I am dealing with being discredited with people with problems in spite of many previous requests to PM me.

At least 50% of the time it is off the hip posts without regard for homework including a good read of posts!

I never leave PM's go unanswered unless they are commercial.

Regards
Dave

Most of you do not know what started this thread off and why we are here where we are today.

I can tell you why!, because of a few posters who did not seek to take advantage of me, rather provided personal inputs and really helped me and I am going to name them here.

kleybenny, alex2585, drwalfwarc, rsmerenka, alb2005, rostausc, maxxs280, joet229, and I am sure I have forgotten too many. Please email me if I have forgotten you.

If I was to single anybody out and I don't even know if he still reads, it would be Alex2585.

I am appreciative and, if at times I get exasperated, I leave it up to you to judge and pass comment.

Dear Dave ,

I become i quite follower of the thread because in my opinion my thoughts was out of scope of the thread.

I already make use of the EA on roboforex with live account. I won't provide any proof because i don't have to and i don't need to. I think results on post 1 are the proof.

My main request was to make EA optionally only money managment to what you didn't agreed. Your decision is totally respected , because already you have done TOO MUCH work and i am very greatful to you, and i see that most people don't even appreciate it , unfortunattely this is how people behave.

I was watching the thread closely and there so many requests with even a simple thank you.

If you will ever change your mind about my propsion i am open to work in that direction but only money managment , after that if you want also to add some indicators it is up to you , because on this topic you know very well my opinion which i have stated several times.


Once again THANK YOU for your efforts and work.

Your post is rather timely in that I had a purpose, and that since I started this thread, I felt I needed to acknowledge the efforts of others. Your deserting this thread did not preclude my acknowledgment of your effort. If you feel offended that I have not incorporated all your ideology, I am sorry.

Alex8585 Your post is rather timely in that I had a purpose, and that since I started this thread, I felt I had an ownership. Your deserting this thread did not preclude my ac ckowledgent of your effort. If you feel offended that I have not subscribed to your efforts, I am sorry but my results speak volumes.
I don't even feel a bit offended , it is more suitable to say that you oversubscribed to my efforts that is why i am very greatful to you.
I am glad that i put my 2cents to this thread .

I would suggest be HAPPY and enjoy your life even if you don't become ever rich .

Hi I have tried to run forward test using zigzag indicator 12 5 3 but will not open trades at all. I have tried reset of EA and put values in manually but still no joy.
The Logic for the zig zag strategy dictates that there are very few trades and on back test it only produced 12 trades in 3 months on an hourly chart.

Basically Point 3 > Point 1 and Point 4 > Point 2 and enter a buy at Point 5 being > Point 3
and reverse for a sell

I can simplify the logic and leave out Point 1 completely but the logic may not be profitable. I would reduce the settings such as 8,3,2 and you may get more trades.
My recommendation is to use this in conjunction with other strategies since it is not really an indicator but more like a support resistance channel.

Please refer to Post #1010 and Post #1017. You need to take a screenshot of the inputs and then press "Reset" bottom right hand corner of inputs and then re-input the relevant values manually because of updates to the EA since then.

Hi Dave_c,

I had the same question and ashamed to ask without finding it in the thread. I have been reading from the beginning. Your result in trade explorer is so impressive. I appreciate it very much for creating this great EA and sharing it with us.
