It seems to be like that David. I think the TS need to be larger
Btw, I am back But I got a bunch of tasks to do since I left it for a week Anyway, I check my comp, yeah ... it still the same, getting worse. And like you said, the trailing stop kill most of my trades Here is my statement. Btw, the stochea looks very goody.

Best,

I suppose it had to happen a large loss has occurred I was long with USDCAD when the pair lost momentum.

This is a mystery to me because all the other trades after going into loss were closed off by the EA this time it did not happen and I was not allowed to close it manually. (Comp Rules)

The point of our competition is to analyze the results and create a better more successful EA, one that doesn't progress as does the martingale type of EAs.

1 month due... who wants a piece of me?!

Since the competition is over, so I started to invent new system on the EA. It seemed ***** me a lot. Take a look at both Competition statement and the 200k statement. I've tried to include with stop loss strategy, seems doesn't work. It closes off trades immediately during the next price movement, anyway, the original version running on 30k demo account still going strong... shooting pips like terrorist attack!!!

I have posted my final comp result and included is the manually closed off last open position.

Nothing to write home about it seems that our comp was won by the smallest loss rather than the largest profit.

Congratulations David and I hope that the results have acted as a springboard for a super stochastic EA.

We have had a 10p3 and a stochastic comp so we will have to decide on our next friendly competition. Any challenges? Any suggestions?

OK. Since we're currently developing 10p3v004, I'm hoping to take this thread up again. This is not a challenge nor competition. We'll be using the same EA, but regularly change settings for each pair the system trading on. Along the way if we find any pair get stucked in the progression too often, we'll be changing the settings for that particular pair according to the trading range and certain criteria, and hope it will perform better next time. What do you think John?

Regards

David

I'm blogging my EA creation journal

If I remember from 12 months ago we both lost but I lost less and so won

Yes let's do it again,
