{quote} check your grid also, 2 pips is really to close, i use 10 pips. S
What do you mean "check your grid, and I use 10 pips", what are you talking about ?? The time delay has nothing to do with number of pips so not sure what you are referring to.

Thanks for the link, this is version FK2 then ?? I see that the AUDUSD is the losing pair but otherwise it looks good with low draw down. Does FK2 have MM built into it, or how is the lot size calculated per trade ??

JPY....these trades we have to avoid!
When markets are extremely os or on we must avoid these trades otherwise the account will be burst one day or another
Any idea?
Maybe a daily or hourly eso filter

Yup. Is there some way to change some setting to avoid 1/2 the trades in each batch closing as a loss.?

Magix, I have included my trade explorer in my profile. While its not your original code, its based on the same conditions. That being said, any help I can provide will be more of an idea exchange, since our EA's may have some differences in logic Thanks again for this thread. -Almo

Looking good, dude.

You are playing with an MQL5 version of your own, correct?

Maybe we should batter around a few ideas when I've got some time...

I've had a few people mention that they are working with Renko charts and the FK EAs, but maybe not to the best of their potential.

If anybody that is working with Renko can throw down an idea or 2 for me to ponder, I will look at giving this a whirl as well.

Thanks!

Actually its MQL4, which [now] explains why I couldn't get yours to work

Yes absolutely, let me know whenever you get some time, we can toss around some ideas over a couple beers . I have some ideas now, especially after watching my last go around with EURCHF blow up, but I'm still in deep thought mode on that. I'll definately get back with you on that.

Just thought I would throw out a little cautionary warning...

The last couple of Fridays have been a bit of a issue for the FK strategy, expectation may be the same on this.

If you are working with these live, you may want to close down trades after London Close, Friday and keep the shut down until a new release...beings how Expiry date is set for Monday, February 29th.

Best of luck into the weekend.

Since it is about to be expired, I disabled the EA FKStochs on my test account and closed the remaining open position manually. Here is an overview of the results. The details report for further analysis is attached.
Overall, IMHO the approach is promising on ranging pairs such as EURGBP.

After running this FN EA for one week, the best pairs are GJ and GU, hands down. I run it on the 5 min chart with 8 pairs on my live and 12 pairs on my 2 demo accounts.
The 5 min time frame is the best so far, and I did extensive back testing getting 99.9% modeling quality before showing the 5 min to be the best time frame with a 150 second time delay.

My live account is up +$306.00 after one week on a $1500.00 starting balance. The open trade DD got as high as -$380.00 which is not to bad at all. I did take a big hit of -$172.00 bucks,on Gold on Monday, after which I deleted it, and ever since never saw anymore than a -$100.00 in open trade DD. I do close some trades manually, so I know that will screw with the basket closing logic, but I think it improves the overall results.

In light of that I have seen many many times where trades are positive and then turn into negative ones so fast, so why not capture some of that profit and bank it is the way that I see it. I know its automated, but if I am at the computer anyways, its a no brainer. After all its not like I am having to sit there for hours on end.
