{quote} Thanks for the data ... It would be interesting to see your 08:00 start with daily data table as it would appear from this sample that with 10080 FF D & 5/12 are the most consistent for a profit albeit not the largest profit but certainly suit my conservative approach. Also that Monday is not the "bad" day that I had previously thought, discounting News and Bank Holidays. Would be interesting to compare all your data that way focusing on Monday as well. Is my interpretation the same as yours? Thanks for the detailed information - appreciated....
Hei payitforward,

i am trying to get all weekly data and group it together like all 10080 ff for the whole month. unfortunately i am now travelling which makes things a bit harder to get a daily snapshot thru teamviewer since the demo is running at my home comp. but yes.. will certainly update here if i do get the data completely..

from what i see. if on friday we do get a huge positive numbers.. usually on monday we will have a large dd (retrace I suppose) and vice versa. but then that still needs more data to see if its more consistent that way..

Hello everyone. I have a question that is directly towards Firewight but if someone else can answer I'd be happy. I've been testing exactly what he's testing. That's Test 9 on Daily. So my question is: Firewight, you said you have TP of 2% account growth and SL of 200 pips and that you play with 3000 dollars. How is it worth it? Shouldn't the TP be bigger than the SL? In this case, if the TP is 2% of your account that's ~60 dollars (just like it's on your profitable screenshots). And the SL of 200 pips takes you a lot more? Is there something I...
There is nothing to explain, these were the settings of a TEST, just a test, to see how it performs, to see how often it would take 2% or how often it wouldnt...

Traditional trading usually uses a higher R:R, but this ISNT traditional trading, some losers may be offset by many winners, therefore, random testing is worth the effort.

IMO

If that random testing amounts to a single setting (basket) that really stands out and performs consistently.
Later in the process running more than one basket let alone 6 or 8 or 12 at the same time is not solid trading.

I'm sure if I found a consistent configuration even if it did not meet peoples "solid trading" ideology, everyone would be asking for set files...

Obviously people have their own ideas, so I will just stick to mine, and keep them to myself from here on out...

It was not against you or your strategy.
Should not have quoted you.

which is Same usual Tf and levels + (3) different timing_
Time will tell ...
Uhmm Humble Baskets, Nothing special .... Good to be humble, helps keeping your feet on the ground...

I can see consistency even with these poor results ...

{quote} Hi, which EA are you using? if you are using the Ccfp_Wkly_TradeMonitor then questions: What version are you using? Did you set individual stoplosses? IF you are using Ccfp_Wkly_TradeMonitor then even though you turned off the machine if you had not set individual stops the trades should of been open and would only be closed if you had also set the basket stop loss. You see, you need to keep your machine on or as you indicated, run the EA on a vps. That way the EA can keep track of the basket and at the instant it sees profit or loss close...
Thanks sir I paid for the vps and will test from there

"The power of catching up, and wave's cycle eventually will pay off"
That is if you survive the drawdowns, news and flash crashes.

Now you entered the wave but you are not sure you took it at the right time and the wave is going against you and just imagine at the same time while you are in draw down a small flash crash (or flash rise) also kicks in.
With the amount of baskets and trades you have open i am sorry, but your account will be toast.

Hi,

Easy. It's just a discussion. I'm testing your idea about of 40 pips tp. I'm also testing fxmadness idea about 300 tp and 600 sl. I'm implementing another one idea of +30 pips in vbasket. Today I'm testing a vbasket for -300 pips with 1000 pips sl and 1000 pips tp and yet no trade

So, Just leave it and contribute your ideas and results here.

perfect agree with that.i found out in all my tests that w1 all default can give decent results.rest is just a matter of MM and thats a personal aproach for every trader.you run for high targets get ready for deep DD.so always guys who figure to dont break their own rules and follow and know just to stop at 20 pips even if they could get 100 that will make them winners.
Take what you can, give nothing back

ahha nahh just joking lol ...
You're right but that's the bad thing about writing and thinking of something else ...
That account is obviously a Demo .... Read pm and it'll make more sense ... at least for me ..
Then look at those results and look at a Daily and weekly chart supp-res and tell me what you see ?
Ah man, too much for a day i need a glass water drink ....

I am sorry but having what 10+ or 20+ baskets open and trading with what 100 to 200 trades should make you nervous.
Not me.
