There are two entry points: Above 32 level or below 68 level, and then combined with MA, support, HA candle color, etc to confirm; Below 32 or above 68, and then combined with RSI or Stochs OBOS confirm; I chose the latter。Because OBOS place an order, so once the price reverse motion, we should continue with the documentary in a certain range. It has at least three different,...
right on, I see. but i was wondering if you are using basket SL or not, because the default setting is zero.

and a few thoughts on this EA: a filter for market condition may be needed, because this type of trading will act well in a certain ranging period, but not in a heavily trending market or sideway market, because it needs retracement to recover your reversed built up postions.
just my 2 cents

trade well.

Hi Yc, i tried to setup as per your post: Set the ea on one chart and drag the script on to the same chart.
But, only one chart remains open other charts have not opened. Is this how it is supposed to be or will the script open all other charts?

yczzd - I read your post but unable to understand the following:

"If the price is running in the Opposite direction as orders, then every 20 points to increase a position, up to 6"
Question 1: Wouldn't that increase my losses since it's going opposite my direction?
Question 2: If I add up to 6 orders, where do I put my SL? (can't seem to find the thread on this?) - please explain or draw on chart if you don't mind.

Attached is my current chart per your instructions steps.


Thanks!

Cheers.

The basket stop is set to 0 by default, this is my test TDI in case of OBOS, reverse order to open the probability of 6~7 position,
and the drawdown level of funds.
I suggest that the basket stop is set to 10~20 (of balance 10%-20%).

You are right to increase filtering, and it really needs to be filtered.
Because TDI trading rules are very simple, without filtering, will be frequent transactions and losses.
FF forum inside the TDI trading post a lot, but it is beginning to be simple, as many of the filter was set to become unusually complex，make the majority of people unable to adapt, and lose interest.
I'm thinking about adding two more filtering options in the new version.
My first priority is Currency Strength, and HeatMap.
Here, I also hope that some people give advice or ideas, to set the filter, only two, only two. no more.
Thank you

good luck

Hi, I just found this thread
simple strategy, interesting.

But the EA uses a martingale system which is a killer account solution.

having multiple trades, ok, we can have multiple signals, but we should be able to disable the martingale.

tips I'm using when I create EAs....
to make the EA faster in back tests, insures that you test if its a new candle, if not, just do nothing, this boost the back tests.
and if you calculate the MA on top of the RSI in the EA itself (rather than relying in an indicator), insures its calculated for the past X candles, like the past 100 candles are only calculated, else it could be very slow too.

​continue your good job

Disabling the marti is an easy deal, I think: set the param "Multi of Counter Trading" to 1.00 instead of 1.15 like now OOTB ! You may also alter the grid itself by changing the param "Gap of Counter Trading" !

  • Aug 3, 2015 7:05am Aug 3, 2015 7:05am
I know but this limits the EA to 1 trade only

additional signals will be ignored. its why the martingale/grid option should be optional.
but not the number of trades.
  • #109
  • Aug 3, 2015 8:04am Aug 3, 2015 8:04am
Are you sure ? Check the parameter "Max number of Counter Trading" in the settings - that's the number of trades allowed.

Hey, everybody.
Please look at the front of the post, #105, #70,#1, about Martingale explanation.
If you don't want to reverse trading, set "Max number of Counter Trading" to 0, OK!
This EA will only be executed in accordance with the Red Green Cross strategy

hi yccd and all, i have done some changes to my settings for gap counter, TP n Breakeven for single symbol basket each adding a zero behind for my 5 digit broker.

the whole day it only had 2 trades and refused to close them. had to manually close one of them while it was still in green.

just thought these might help in building up the ea.

Lower the basket close percentage - it should work.

How do I lower the basket close percentage?

TP of single symbol basket, Breakeven for single symbol basket or TP/SL of all trading in %?

Hi yczzd,
Your script file doesnt work. When I opened the script file, my chart will automatically closed. Is it any way to run the script file?
Thanks.

I have altered settings of TP of all trading in % to 2.5. Due to my 5 digit broker, other settings changed are TP n BE of single symbol basket and gap counter to which I added an extra zero behind the default settings. Let's observe from here...

  • Aug 3, 2015 3:28pm Aug 3, 2015 3:28pm
yes i did that too ad zero to gap counter TP and BE.

percentage closure you try and mimic to scale how yczzd is trading. good day on both my m30 and h1 demos.

Thanks for this EA. In enter a trade it seems very good, however I did test it in a very short time. As I understood the function of "Tp of Single Symbol Basket" is a value of USD ...Can that be in pips? And also the SL value in pips and BE in pips...Maybe there I did miss something or did not understand. Thanks to reply me back in advance. Because otherwise in any lot size trading change we have to change all this values in all pairs..

Note: I did understand the TDI rule SL green cross red ..But apply a pip rate option would increase the style of the trade, as well as a TSL option.

im thinking that for some of the pairs we go 5 min or 15 min to increase the frequency of trades. this way, for some of the slow days like yesterday, the basket will be filled with more different pairs to diversify the trading pairs.

sounds like a good idea to me.
but for currency strength and heatmap, are you refering to same indicator? and is it used for gauge each pair movement amplitude in certain period of time?
how exaclty are you trying to use it, any ideas?
for me, personally, i would like put a boudary line for only sell below it and buy above it. at least in a heavy down trend market, once price is below the line, i will not do any more buy actions, vice versa.
