bojack34 replied Mar 16, 2020Here's an update to some stats I got from doing a visual backtest using Swingman's indicator for the last 52 weeks. Obviously these aren't exact but I feel they are reasonably close. GBPUSD: (10% +/-) 1:1 was reached 18 times 2:1 was reached 6 times ...

bojack34 replied Mar 15, 2020That is why I said it would be ok to add an additional trade at tp1 but to make your original trade bigger just so you can take 1/2 lot size at tp1 just doesn't make sense to me. If you spend time in your strategy to come up with a good Entry and ...

bojack34 replied Mar 15, 2020I'm talking about taking 1/2 profits at TP1. This makes no sense to me unless tp2 is far enough away to make it worth while. The way you put it in your response that price comes back hard at you.....that won't happen with what I was saying because ...

bojack34 replied Mar 15, 2020If you start with 4 lots because you plan on taking half at tp1 then your are increasing your risk overall just so you can reduce risk and take half at tp1. That makes no sense to me. If you are planning on letting a portion of your trade to ...

bojack34 replied Mar 15, 2020I never understood why closing half profits was used unless the 2nd TP target is atleast 2x the distance of your TP1. If you have a 20 pip tp1 target and you close out half and the tp2 target was another 20 pips away. Once you close the 2nd portion ...

bojack34 replied Mar 15, 2020Ok maybe I was unclear. I apoligize. I was just asking for an adjustable SL. That's all. I'm not talking about changing the trade direction at all.......just being able to adjust the SL. That's all. Again, I do appreciate all you do. Thanks.

bojack34 replied Mar 15, 2020May I ask why it cannot be changed? Is it because that's what is on the thread? Because I'm pertty sure the OP started with a full range + 10% SL. The SL has evolved and should continue to be adjusted to find best results. If you just cannot do it, ...

bojack34 replied Mar 15, 2020So I just did a "visual" back test on this strategy using GBPUSD from March 1st 2019 to Current (52 weeks). Here is what I was using as my criteria. Opening trades at 15% with a 50%SL. Once a trade reaches 50% of the 1:1 target I move the SL to BE. ...

bojack34 replied Mar 15, 2020SM, Will you please make an addition to the Indicator? Will you please allow us to adjust the SL? As it is right now it's hard coded to 50%. This will not allow us to forward test any other settings. Please and TY. Edit: Also, I'm not sure why, but ...

bojack34 replied Mar 15, 2020Everyone would rather just ask for other peoples settings and then do one of the most useless things on MT4....backtest a strategy. People don't have the patience to forward test properly and keep notes/stats.

bojack34 replied Mar 15, 2020Charts don't get much cleaner than this. I'm going to try to limit the pairs that I trade with this strategy so i'm not risking tooooo much. I'm going to try to risk around .5% to 1% per pair. I'm going to treat these trades as a basket but also let ...
