Looks like I named this GU results file the same as the EU results file. Maybe that is the problem. Try this file with about 4.5 months of results for GU 50/20.

Here are the results for this test. Sorry it took some time. I made a change to the simulator - it can take a while to run through a week's worth of tick data in visual mode - 15 minutes or so. I do that to make sure the simulator handles the ...

- I use a custom-built simulator that deals with range bars just fine. I'll run some tests when I get a chance. - If you set the TP to be the close of the current bar, the absolute best you can do is a 2:1 RR ratio (before spread). This would be a ...

Multi-pair basket systems (EAs) can be backtested (simulated) in MT4. However, you need to know your way around MQL4 and spend some time creating a framework for the simulation of data. For best results, you also need to use tick data. Creating the ...

Yes, there are subtleties with MTF indicators on non-standard timeframe charts (ie, offline charts) that you need to be aware of. If you struggle with a solution, let me know, I may be able to assist.

That's always been the big question here. I think we all know these T101-related strategies can do very well when the basket is trending nicely. An analysis of a ranging week by those with successful strategies would be most beneficial to everyone. ...

Thanks charvo! Each basket was a separate test. Each basket started with $10,000. I did not run the EA for my tests. I created a customized script to perform the tests. But yes, the idea is to eventually run my test script in the same way the EA ...
