Oanda is my least favorite broker. You can get more data by collecting it over time. I think those scripts were meant to open all the charts so that you start receiving data for all the currency pairs, so you can collect it. Higher timeframes have ...

I've always liked shorter timeframes because you get more trades. You get results sooner. Higher timeframes seem like they might hold a pattern longer, but I'm not convinced of that. Higher timeframes do test quicker, which is nice. Regarding low ...

Blessing knows nothing of orders it doesn't open, other than reduced free margin.

Okay, here's a 9% MaxDDPercent setup. Higher timeframe as some requested. Suggest you don't modify MaxDD. Other settings don't do nearly as well. file file This has not been forward-tested, so don't trade it live. Better to fine-tune for your ...

You're right! I checked through my running Demo tests and found a few multi-month winners with MaxDD of 10% or less. Several go down to 7%. Below 10% seems to bring losses down to about the same size as winners, which makes them much easier to deal ...

There is no Martingale misfeature to remove. None. Blessing can increase lot size per level, completely under your control. It doesn't do the other absurd Martingale BS. Doubling down after every loss ... Blessing thankfully doesn't know how to do ...

I usually set MaxDD to the lowest number possible before it impacts profits. It's usually the last thing I set. I've had a couple cases where I could go down to around 10, but that's rare. Changing that number without backtesting it is likely to ...

Ah, you must mean some sort of MODIFIED Martingale. The real, original is stupid. And requires an infinitely large account. It requires you to double your bet after every loss. How many losses before you're out of money? -100, -200, -400, -800, ...

Martingale is a stupid system, which Blessing never uses. Never.

Just a reminder: I have three brokers and my set files created for one broker almost never work well for the other two. Brokers all seem to have different data. So if you have different results from someone else that's probably why. Some robot ...

Blessing is equipped to hedge losses as you have done, automatically. I have explored that possibility only marginally so far. I'll have to take a closer look. Only one of my accounts allows hedging.

As the reports show, I'm using b3rf2.1.5. No need for tick data anymore. This version does just as well with MT4 'Open prices only'. Way faster. Test the results with tick data when you're done and prove it to yourself. Only pennies difference. Good ...

Out of sample backtesting can be helpful. I prefer to go straight to forward testing. Especially since Blessing seems quite good at finding repeating patterns. If you meant automated optimization or something like that, I have looked at that. Mostly ...
