Ronald Raygun replied Aug 11, 2010Turning point 9 on the right seems out of place. I think point 9 is about 7 bars to the right and point 10 just after that.

Ronald Raygun replied Aug 11, 2010Not quite. Initial range is the number of bars after the day start that the EA waits before calculating the high/low. I generally wait an hour because it only takes an hour for the day's high and low to separate enough to minimize whipsaw. If I ...

Ronald Raygun replied Aug 10, 2010As I mentioned to iulli, I'm not sure. It seems that the backtesting data changed. Here's a thought. Take a backtest/optimization. Go to the experts/files and back up the initial files. Rerun the optimization. Compare.

Ronald Raygun replied Aug 10, 2010I'm not sure how good of a programmer you are, but you can have a second EA read the optimized settings in the experts/files folder created by the original EA. Then you can weight up or down.

Ronald Raygun replied Aug 10, 2010You lost me. What's the point of your modification? Why not just increase the win rate and decrease the risk reward?

Ronald Raygun replied Aug 10, 2010A lot of you seem set that this EA must trade every day? I ask all of you to try what steve has done. Set the EA up on a weekend, and don't touch it for a week. The only real reason you would need to interfere with this EA is if the EA's ...

Ronald Raygun replied Aug 6, 2010When writing the trading logic within the EA's backtester, I need to write it in such a way that I can calculate all the necessary variables as if the EA were just started that bar. It's not always easy to do that for more complex systems. I have a ...
