MetaCoder replied Sep 17, 2010I don't think either of us has time to contribute more than we already are. On this thread, Frazer and I are engaging in the process that got us this far, which is to try lots of ideas and let others decide for themselves which ones they want to ...

MetaCoder replied Sep 16, 2010The lot sizes start out normal. You favor starting out with small lot sizes? If the Basket14 strategy is the backbone, we won't get to our profit objective via that set of tactics if all lot sizes are 1/10th normal.

MetaCoder replied Sep 16, 2010Here are two hybrid of Basket14_03 and Basket14_Add_01. When ver 03 trims, it does not open a reverse trade on the trimmed pair as Basket14_03 does, but it does add trades every hour as Basket14_Add_01 does. I can foresee problems with not taking ...

MetaCoder replied Sep 15, 2010skoda, all I know from reading your posts is that you are trying to see, quantify and take advantage of the same thing I am -- expansion and contraction of the two sides of the hedge.

MetaCoder replied Sep 15, 2010That's the $64 billion dollar question with any strategy. It does well in THIS kind of action, but is it all-terrain and all-weather?

MetaCoder replied Sep 15, 2010Lots of ideas on the thread and I can't possibly code them all, but I usually code something so here is...something. It's a ver 02 of the Add EA. It uses one-tenth the customary lot size across the board and maintains that same small lot size for ...

MetaCoder replied Sep 15, 2010I thought we tried something very much like this, even with a controlled pace of trims, and it didn't work well.

MetaCoder replied Sep 15, 2010Here is Basket14_03a. I'm not adding it to the first post since there is a 7-attachment limit per post. I probably can't fully explain the entry criteria in plain English, but I'll try. Let's start with the entry criteria for ver 03. That one only ...

MetaCoder replied Sep 15, 2010Pinhead - maybe you're expecting 1% of the wrong thing. The current equity must rise 1% above last flat equity. Is that what you're watching for? Or are you for floating PL (the incorrect thing to watch)? ___ forexripper, is it a standard or mini, ...

MetaCoder replied Sep 15, 2010Hey Juiceman, that's cool that ver 03 is working well for you so far. getting is also getting good results with version 03: url I'm not positive I did the best job of picking directions for the groups in ver 03, but maybe it's a decent stab at it. ...

MetaCoder replied Sep 15, 2010I don't doubt that others have done a much better job than I have of figuring out which direction to go with all 14 pairs. Maybe if I can refine that decision for one-way trades, and let the trim'n'reverse make things right when we've gone the wrong ...

MetaCoder replied Sep 15, 2010If you've got a 25% loss I'd say you will want to examine your settings for your account type and leverage level. But as you see from my last post, I'm not a huge fan of all 14 pairs in one direction. Sometimes it works great to grab the tiger by ...

MetaCoder replied Sep 15, 2010In attempt to clear up questions the Oneway14_02 EA -- yes, clearly the EA can close for a loss. What's causing it is closure when the RVI signal lines go above/below 0.0, which I thought would almost always provide profit when coming from a +/-0.15 ...

MetaCoder replied Sep 14, 2010It's certainly possible and I think a number of people on the board could tell you how to do it. I personally don't bother with them.

MetaCoder replied Sep 14, 2010I'm glad to hear Confirm14_03 works all right. The trim'n'reverse criteria made sense to me when I wrote it, but some were expecting more frequent trims.
