Pattern? see from the parameter .
I believe your image only shows the balance and equity, it doesnt show the top part of the tester's report.

Good stuff, Khalil Abokwaik Very interesting indeed.
Thanks,

1/ Can this EA be equipped with a advisable function (not tradable), marking a pattern with an arrow on a chart? The direction of the arrow is UP / DOWN for buy / sell.
Yes, that would be through an indicator. So I will make a bar_sequence_indicator which can be for visual use.

Quoting Dr.Phoenix
2/ Can the EA be equipped with the MTF option? Trading the lower FTs, you could be notified by the arrow from the higher TFs (if choosen).
Again as an indicator, but later on.

Hi redrose,

Please be aware that we are not providing any trading systems here (yet).
Our concern at this stage should be focused on discovering potential profitable dequence patterns, for further analysis.

sell -p Any down Bearish Pin

I dont know if im reading it right, but on the first post with 2 sample patterns, it doesnt seem to match sample 1. with 'LLiH'
this is my second look at this thread so not any expert, but doesnt LLiH mean these 4 letters represent 4 consecutive bars.

The 'i' from the full listing says it should be a down bar, yet the third bar here in the sample image is an upbar... am I reading it wrong ?

Hi Khalil, great job! And thanks for sharing...
I'm also testing it and hope to publish my contribution, too.
I was wondering if results may be affected by SL / TP size and using option "close and reverse".

I'm not expert in backtesting, but I fear that downloaded data during testing are not genuine. Any hint?

P.s: Of course I'm talking about downloaded data in my tests

No problem Efffect,

The coding has been changed on the 1st day, but I forgot the 2 samples that were using the old coding, I removed them this morning when I updated the 1st post.
However ALL tested patterns are using the new (current coding).

In the old coding i meant an Inside Bar of Opposite Color to previous bar, while I meant an inside bar of same color as previous bar. According to that the LLiH meant Lower Low followed by Lower Low followed by an inside bar of opposite color followed by a Higher High.

In the new coding i means Bearish Inside Bar, while I means Bullish Inside bar, L means Confirmed Low, H means confirmed High.
So the sequence LLiH would mean Confirmed Low followed by Confirmed Low followed by a Bearish Inside bar followed by a confirmed High, which is different from chart example .

When I have time I will post Chart examples of each pattern.

Keep in mind that, this is a research rather than a trading system. Found patterns do not mean any thing before testing on out of sample data, and on a longer time period and instruments.

people be careful to not curve fitting a setup.
It is still possible to curve fit any combinations for a specific time period to be profitable. this does not mean it will be profitable in the future.
minimum should be 100 trades

Abokwaik, do you think is possible to add a close trade sequence? for instance, test a sequence to buy/sell and then close the trade when another particular sequence appears... i think it could be better than have a rigid tp and sl , better yet it would be to have a hybrid solution, have a rigid stop loss but if a close sequence appears , then the ea closes the trade. What do you think?

So you want to add two other options, one for Close Buy Sequence, and Close Sell Sequence.
This will differ from the "Close and Reverse" option, as it will close only without opening a trade in the opposite direction.

Good Idea. Thanks.

It is possible, although it will complicate things.

I'll see what I can do.
