Yikes. Average profit per trade? $0.93 Don't use ticks. Set Model to Open prices only and ignore Modeling quality. You're getting there. Try again.

Here's a set file to use for starting optimization for Blessing_3_v3.9.6.14. PotionPC set to 500. UseMM off. MaxTrades set to 1, good for unsettled markets. Set Period to M5 (or whatever timeframe you prefer), Spread to 30, history to between 1 and ...

Everyone needs to find their own preferences. It's a very inexact science (or art form.) I like the simplicity and reduced workload of multi-pair robots. But I dislike having some pairs perform markedly better than others. I've been watching the ...

Thank you. Hope everyone is staying safe. url I'm exploring yet another extreme of Blessing, a grid size of one. Yes, Blessing is so good it even does that very well. I may increase grid size on some winners as the market calms down. The problem ...

That 'great explanation of Blessing's settings' is just a ripoff of the manual which the poster doesn't own up to until the end. The version of Blessing posted there is an older version that is the benchmark so many others have worked from. I've ...

Set your timeframe to M5, set UseStopLoss to true and tune it up ... Don't expect it to work on any broker besides the one you optimize it for.

Strategy Tester can be used in many different ways and for different purposes. For me it's all about finding repeating patterns and capitalizing on them. Ten or 15 instances of Blessing is a nice way to cash in on a decent EA. Periodically tuning up ...

Looking for ideas and suggestions for possible modifications to Blessing that will help with running multiple instances of Blessing or other EAs sharing the same account. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Better EAs don't use ticks. They filter them out. Makes things much more consistent. And backtests much faster. Difference in profit is a couple pennies, often better. Read the rest of the thread, you may learn something. Good luck! Edit: Blessing ...

It's always nice to have a small drawdown. But that's the wishful, lucky side of optimization. Once you run it live you have to deal with whatever happens. This is why good leverage or a large account are crucial. When things go the wrong way you ...

The NO NEW TRADES entry controls the ShutDown variable. To be precise, it stops allowing trades once the basket is closed and the number of open trades drops to zero. The intent is to allow the current basket, if any, to run to completion. There are ...

I'm not sure about that 'coded by professionals' claim. Version .09 has been around quite a long time. It works surprisingly well when it works. I think there's been a realization by many that it needs to be rewritten. But that's a big job, given ...
