My current stream of consciousness about the forex market... When we view currency pairs as numerator/denominator entities where a single currency is either a numerator or a denominator (that's all they are, correct?), the two 7-pair sides of our ...

Nice addition to the core concept, taz. That's why I post the source code, so people can easily incorporate their own trading ideas.

For your consideration: __ Notice the big number of trades when AddSix_01 was running, then the small number of trades in the second batch when I had 02 running. url __ With this one, it trades limited pairs. I had it coded to just trade 2 pairs ...

You're welcome Frazer. Could we consider trading even fewer pairs? Maybe look at your reports with this in mind: are there pairs that often contribute more, and ones that often put a drag on reaching equity pop? Big contributors that come to mind ...

The first AddSix EA, and the only one posted here so far, adds trades on any phantom pair that is in profit during minute 0. That criterion is very loose so it can lead to a lot of trades. My demo finally closed a LOT of trades for profit on Friday. ...

I intend to refine the Phantom idea as much as possible. I like it the best of anything.

I've been testing a concept for a while and will test it for a while longer before I post EAs that implement it. The concept is to open trades during minute 0 when a pair is the biggest phantom winner (in dollars/cents, not pips). This tends to ...

Let's first makes sure we're referring to the same section of code. It's this I'm referring to: if (PL_Array[i] <= PipTarget4Reverse && AllSymbolTradesInProfit(SymbolArray[i]) && !SymbolMarked(SymbolArray[i])) { if (i < 7) { Comment("Reversing a " + ...

The profitable phantom trades aren't reaching the DollarProfitLevels needed to trigger trades. It's problematic getting it automatically proportional for every account type and every leverage level.

If you do get it working as intended, let us know what happens. Also, I originally took your 'reverse' to mean you'd be CUTTING and reversing.

I'm trying to explain that your code is not taking reverse trades of -20 pip count. The code calls for shorts in the buy group and longs in the sell group. Since you're not seeing that, and since it's logically unlikely to happen, it confirms that ...

In your added code, do you understand that these two conditions won't be true at the same time very often? You're saying "check that a particular phantom trade is losing, but all actual open trades on the same pair are in profit". PL_Array[i] <= ...

I can't possibly respond to every request to explain differences between versions. Please arm yourself with a diff utility and compare the text of the EAs to see the differences. Also, the thread should contain descriptions of the differences.

Basket14_Add_02 is simple and should do well. It's not as efficient as a good Phantom.

I'm going to stop pursuing so many permutations of these strategies. I believe we have explored trim'n'reverse type tactical frameworks enough. I'm not that fond of them. I have identified a straightforward version of Phantom14 that I will share if ...
