SwingMan, azjeff, orion7,

Thanks for forwarding the optimisation article.

azmel please cek your pm

Hi Azmel,
can you please see post 23?

Thanks

Azmel,

Using default parameters mybacktest reflected loss of $11.6 thousand with 25.53% drawdown for Jan 2007 through current.

When I optimized on upper and lower stoch I was able to get $4.7k profit with drawdown of 23.41% (upper stoch = 40, lower = 80) and
$4.3k with 18.28% drawdown with upper 50 and lower 60)

When I further optimized on sl & tp (using the new 50 upper & 60 lower stoch) I achieved $7.3 thousand in profit and 20% dd. (tp1=70,tp2=120,sl=50)

However, I have yet to achieve good modeling quality. But the above shows relative results on a $50,000 account. So the approach still seems a bit iffy, even though optimizing the parameters much improved the results.

Saintmo,

I am curious as to where you got take profit of 120 for tp2? When I load the ea it only gives an option for one take profit amount. The default amount is 50.

Jeff

Jeff,

Version .02 code is below. I made TP1 & TP2 external variables in order to test.

saintmo

int TP1;
int TP2;

int SL;

int slippage = 5;

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| Main code |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+

int start()
{
TP1=TakeProfit;
TP2=TP1+TakeProfit;
SL=StopLoss;

Hi Azmel,

is there a possibility to get a Trailingstop built into the EA?
I think this would help to secure some profits in a early phase of the trade.

Thanks

Chris

The problem with this EA is that during reboot or platform restart it re-enters positions.

I am hoping that Azmel will upgrade it...
