Rough back test with poor data (as usual), all options enabled + Pyramiding Entry Option {image}
Look at all the mismatched chart errors, these make your backtests invalid.

Download the correct data set and history in regards to the period you would like to perform the backtest on, otherwise you can keep getting invalid data that either seems great but isn't or the other way around you get backtest results that seem negative but could be profitable.

I will be going for a 2-week vacation starting tomorrow, so I might not be able to correspond as frequent.
It would be very nice if you guys can run some back/forward tests with different options, on different JPY crosses.

All the best and wish you all consistent profits.

This concept is also applicable in other contexts, for example Dow/dollar indexes and forex dollar pairs. Just a thought....

True, Good point. This why I left the pair codes selectable. For example you can use it to trade EURAUD based on EURGBP + GBPAUD. So it can be used as a generic Cross Trader not only a Yen Trader.

One more and then off to dinner. Will test more later. Looks better on high TF, not surprising (signal TF daily).

Thank You.

No, you need only the Traded Pair (i.e. EURJPY).
Make sure you feed in the Symbol codes as they appear in Terminal's Market Watch (with any prefix/suffix).

Thank you nonlinear for sharing your 99.9% Modeling Quality tests.

I see that your tests were carried out with most of the indicators disabled. Would you mind try it wit few/all indicators enabled.

Thank You

One gets a much higher win rate with the trailing stop of course. As seen here, adding RVI reduces trades somewhat but improves the PF, other tests on CCI indicate it doesn't help too much on this TF anyway. I am seeing consistent decent results with various settings, which is the sign of a sound strategy. Want to test on some other TF and other windows
