Hi, can u do this same test but with fixed lot size? Let's say, 1 lot? I think it's more reliable work with manual increment of lots.

Thanks
Hi Khaled,
When I attach EA to the chart its gets removed and can not be attached. Please advise what to be done!

Well, lot=1 is a bit to much:

I think there is a bug in version 5_1 about :
Max_Open_Trades=1 and I got 10 opened trades at same time...

All yesterday tests were done, as clearly stated, with JamesT set file (post 491), only changes are fixed lot=0.1, chart TF and EA TF.
Hi,

I have a couple of requests, but first i would like to say that i am not quite sure if the hedging is working
1) could you add comments and/or different magicNumber to the hedged position, please?
2) could you add a hedge %, to allow the user to choose.

thank you

The Explorer Posted is one of my own creations that combines the ideas posted in this thread by Abokwaik with a little of my own personal trade logic.

It's running on an M1 chart, but filters through the day and daily trend.

Though not a terrible start, there is room for improvement. Might give this a little more attention over the weekend, may even apply the triggering methodology to a Renko chart...ya know...for shitz n gigglez.

Hello Kilion,
Do you think you will get time to validate other pair like you did for GBPJPY ?
Thank you

Hello Kilion, Do you think you will get time to validate other pair like you did for GBPJPY ? Thank you
I don't have at this moment history files for other 3 pairs.

Anyway I think that more important is to find the best settings, as results so far aren't so good...
Have been following this thread for a while and the Yen Trader developed by abokwaik looks very promising..Kudos to everyone for your contributions towards this thread especially to the brainchild of the yen trader EA abokwaik...I have been trying to get the yen trader to place trades but it hasnt place a single trade for the past 24hours...I dont know if setting is right or wrong?I would be very glad if someone can assist me set this EA up properly.Thank you and God bless.Attached is my set up.I put the EA on 1 hour chat with default settings for V4.

Markets change. One has to identify why the expert did poorly and well during certain windows and adjust the expert accordingly (e.g., the requested hour filters and other filters, etc). Or, more likely, for lower TF's, the settings will have to be adjusted to market conditions repeatedly. So you choose settings that work over a past window (e.g., a year) and then trade those forward over a smaller window (e.g. a month), and then repeat the process each month. The hard part is (i) choosing settings that are not overly curve fit and (ii) choosing the size of the test and forward windows. These issues are open to debate by some and the best approach may be to try different ones of (i) and (ii) and see which work best over a long period of time (a time consuming process and exposing the limits of MT4). Even then, on lower TF, it has a solid chance of not walking forward profitably. A losing a expert in the hands one trader can be a profitable expert in the hands of another trader and vice versa IMO

my observation of V5 was: it gets killed in tight range market, and shows a good performance when the market moves.
Consequence - look to avoid buying peaks and selling dips.
I already made my suggestion, Abokwaiks time is limited, i´m sure he will publish V6 when he find the time and it is ready.
just do it

Somewhat expected that it will do well outside of tight ranges for those seeking 1:5 RR with a 5000 target, stacking multiple trades, etc.
