macman replied Aug 3, 2010Hi PJ, The point of the post was to illustrate how using the same entry condition (number of look back bars) does not work very successfully if applied across the board to all pairs. The EA used in the tests is an earlier version of NanBob's ...
Nanningbob V5: Steve Hopwood's auto-trading robot

macman replied Aug 3, 2010Steve, I think eventually we may need a different look back setting for individual pairs. 1st pic shows results for 2 years backtest on UJ M15 using 192 bars (48 hours) & 720 bars (180 hours) as trigger points. So 192 bars is the best - right? Now ...

macman replied Aug 2, 2010Agreed, the longer TF's do need some getting used to. Just to keep things in perspective if you were manually trading H4 the minimum suggested stop loss would be 300% ATR (20) which can be quite a big number sometimes. You can use the attached indi ...

macman replied Jul 30, 2010Which is exactly why I added a set number of bars to look back to the 6ths indi - see earlier posts for indi. If you had the 6ths indi set for say 168 bars on a 4H chart you will always be using the past 28 days of history (28x6) so it then won't ...
