Hi Guys

Here an update :
Unfortunately that doesn’t work with FXCM.. same as l picked ‘’non exotic’’ currencies...
Behavior is erratic...trades close prematurely in negative...For some currencies TP don't show up...
Probably a bug on the Broker side…Last version 4.5 didn't change anything.
It seems that l will have to open another live account if l want to try it live one day...
If someone get it works properly with them...please let me know...

Just curious...Bazze- Sagera: What is your live Broker?

Thanks guys to continue sharing your live results...will follow it anyway...

What settings are you using? Are you demoing? ECN? Try longer timeframes and tell me if the EA still behaves the same way

Hi Edo
Regular Settings just set false info box and EA name for testing purpose
It is my live Broker but on DEMO testing...They claimed to be NO DEALING DESK FOREX EXECUTION means non market maker but ECN...don't know...l will try longer TF...
Keep you posted
Have a nice WE

EDIT: On M5 TP showed up on those 3 currencies l have tried so far...keep you posted

EDIT2: erratic behavior is back...As you will see below Both sell EU displayed closed in negatif for no reason...
During that time another sell was trigerred at the same place it shot down previously...
Also unusual behavior... have double commission charged for each trade...Never saw that before...Then you see what l mean by erratic behavior...A bug somewhere probably on broker side...

Version 4.5 does not produce any profit in backtests. Has anyone figured out what settings have changed from 4.3 to 4.5? I've tinkered with everything and can't get it to trade profitably anymore.

You're right. I also tried to make all the settings both on the 5.3 version, remove survival mode, but the ea keeps close orders and open new.

Well.. I'm not home atm but it has to do with the survival settings for sure. tweak them around. I'll get back to you on monday

The same happens to me, the new version, in backtests keeps closing position is losses. Setting survival mode to false doesn't solve. I'm sure Edorenta will work this around.

Thanks for your hard work Edorenta, i really think you are on the right track.

I would kindly ask, when you have time, that you update your post one, and briefly describe every feature of your EA. If we have a clear perception of what every feature and setting does, will be able to optimize results for different pairs and different market conditions.

Every experienced trader or programmer easily know how the EA works, just from looking at the settings, but, me for example, I'm having a hard time, trying to configure the best settings, cause I don't know what most of them do.

Sorry for this, and keep up the good work.

Hi everyone,

New release : version 4.6 (corr 4.7)

- Survival mode is now fixed
- New option called "ADX Trend Hedge" meant to hedge your current position when the filter switches On. This position will close as your current cycle closes.
This option has proven to lower the DD heavily on many of my tests.

I'm working on some optimization to run a trade explorer that I will attach to the thread.

Cheers,

Edo

Hi Edo,

as I'm running long term backtests on two machines (4.3 ignoring 4.5) with different settings, I will test 4.6 tomorrow and give some feedback these days!

Once more, thanx for Your hard work!

One more question. I was wondering how the option "Keep open positions in trend" is supposed to work. My first thought was kind of trailing of open positions in the detected trend, but that does not make really sense as the TP is set on the chart. So I think disabling this option would close open positions when a trend is detected? (I could not yet recognize this behaviour, but I did not really focused on testing this by now.)

Cheers,
Barlam

Hi Barlam,

The way it works is really simple:
The ADX accelerates, indicating that a trend initiates whatever the direction it is.
If you tell the EA to close the open deals when the trend filter switches on, whatever your current profit is, it will get closed, often resulting in a loss.
I'm going to work on a better approach of this trend-exit (i.e only exit if the trend seems to be sideways relatively to our current cycle)
You'll always miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

... of cause You do and You do it good!

Thanks once more for Your answer.

A tiny little idea for the EA- just to think about by Yourself perhaps: As one of my test settings (based on sageras set from #post 8) relies on non martingal (set to 2) and seems to be kind of stable (at least back to 01.01.2014 long&short), it would be interessting to see what happens with linear increments instead of a factor martingal.
If You too think it might be interesting, we would have to think about the base value for an increment. Even with fixed base lot it might be nice to have an own setting for the incerment value. Otherwise that would be a problem with % based base lot.
What do You thing? Worth some brain energy? Might be not, as I'am definitly no expert.
