Backtesting
I am doing some backtesting with DS and will see if I can find some productive settings.
My feeling, however, is that DS is sprouting too many levers and dials and possibly tripping over the potholes in MQ4. Just for an exercise, why not consider the following simplification of Synergy:
Entries: Stochastic fast above/below slow, Momentum above/below 50 and rising/falling, and Alligator green above/below red and blue and rising/falling. PSAR below/above Alligator green.
Exits: PSAR crosses below/above Alligator green. and/or Stochastic fast crosses below/above slow. Momentum and Alligator green falling/rising.
Trailing stop = PSAR as long as it is moving with the trend.
The blue line on Momentum is a moving average that could also be used as a trigger, but maybe it is best to stay away from moving averages.
See illustration attached.
