Hi abokwaik,

So far I have only attested with GBPJPY. Can you give any tips on the SL / TP values to start testing with other JPY pairs?

Thank you

There are many methods for this:

  1. SL below Swing Low for Long, above Sqing High for Short, TP with reward to risk >= 1:1
  2. SL x times the ATR value, TP with reward to risk >= 1:1, where x can range from 1 to 10 depending on the traded tf.
  3. SL & TP when either of the component pars changes direction.
  4. MA reverse cross on the traded pair.
  5. .... etc.

No guts, no glory

Sorry, I thought you were asking about manual trading.

For the EA different settings were tested and shared by me and other members.
On the trade explorer I am using the settings shared in post # 718 on all pairs.

Thank you!

And I've tested and choosed to continue the tests with manual lot increment. It's possible to create two input to EA increment the lot size in an account balance step?
Let me be more clear giving an example: When the account balance grow 100% the EA increment lot size by 100% or 50% or so based on input values. The current option constantly increments the lot size.

Yes. It is possible, and from my experiments with other systems it is better to increase/decrease the lot size based on account return pre-set milestone percentages.
I will implement this feature in next release.

Thanks

And one more thing:

You are very intelligent. I do not know what his religion, but his God protect him and keep him providing wisdom and humility, because only a good-hearted person thinks of others. I am surprised by the mechanism of your system.

It seems that this is your first visit to the thread.
We started with JPY crosses and then expanded to all crosses.

The system can be traded manually, or via provided EAs.
We are still testing and evaluating the system, but so far so good imho.

On GBPJPY chart I use three sub-windows each consisting of GBPUSD,USDJPY and 14 basket pair index (which has 80-100% correlation with GBPJPY).
http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...89#post8928989

Sometimes the movement in other pairs , besides GBPUSD and USDJPY, affects GBPJPY and the 14 basket pair index helps finding the divergence.
