ecTrade replied Feb 25, 2011Oh, I changed (RSI) sl_threshold so it's activated only after specified number of points below the last order open price. In other words, since it's set to activate at -10, that means hedge should close out somewhere between -10 and -40 points, with ...

ecTrade replied Feb 25, 2011swb grid 4.1_revised_03 — Actually, I kind of had a hard time understanding what you're saying here? Maybe we can discuss it later? My mind can only go in so many directions at once and, right now it's about time I took a break.

ecTrade replied Feb 25, 2011Hey, these results are from ideal, by the way. Sometimes you might miss when you're closing out (or close out more than 3 or 4 times in a row on the wrong side of a hedge) and then you're screwed. So, there's probably times when you have to be ...

ecTrade replied Feb 25, 2011Hedge reverse option? No, it's similar to what you're describing here, except I'm using RSI with Entry and Exist. I also have a regular stoploss set to 40 I believe. Also, I'm not sure what you mean by hedge reverse option? I guess I can try ...

ecTrade replied Feb 25, 2011Okay, here it is at 150% for the same period. I made a profit of $1326, although it had peaked to about $1500 two or three weeks prior to that, when it crapped out. If it wasn't for that, it probably would have been closer to $2000. Oh, I set ...

ecTrade replied Feb 25, 2011Hey look at this. This was for three months with hedge set a level 2, 125%, 1.0 lot size and $2500 deposit. I made a profit of $1448. Of course I'm thinking I should have tested it at 150%, which I'm doing right now but, I think that probably works ...

ecTrade replied Feb 25, 2011I believe I attempted something similar to that here ... albeit without the hedge. And yes, this was one of my epiphany moments too!

ecTrade replied Feb 25, 2011Yes, I did this on purpose, because you made it sound as if the hedge should be the final say-so before everything closed out. But no, this can be changed. Yeah, sounds like a plan.

ecTrade replied Feb 25, 2011Except of course for the accuracy part, right? Of course I just now realized I should probably use doubles (with floating point) instead of integers on indicator signals. I just now re-uploaded it so, you might want to check it out.

ecTrade replied Feb 25, 2011It's all based on momentum, when accelerating (or decelerating), and will post a higher or lower TP depending on that. It's a little extra insurance, in case it begins to lose momentum, but not enough to trigger RSI exit. So, if it sets a TP within ...

ecTrade replied Feb 25, 2011Come to find out I didn't remove the presets (when testing) and forgot to include the inputs options. It should work more dynamically now.

ecTrade replied Feb 25, 2011Well, I wasn't having much luck trying to access it the way it was written in the code so, I tried it the way I normally do and got it to work on the buy side, but not the sell side. So basically I'm going to start all over again (beginning with ...

ecTrade replied Feb 24, 2011What if you set the rsi_period to 12 on the MTF indicator? Do you think it would give you a more accurate reading? Not that I'm saying I won't try the standard RSI, it's just that I'm still trying to implement it. If I try implementing it the way ...

ecTrade replied Feb 24, 2011Yeah, that's the way I understood it too. Yes, I think this is a good idea and I will go ahead and get started on it. Yes. Are you saying accessing it the same but, determine our own entry and exit points per what you're saying below? Yes.

ecTrade replied Feb 24, 2011Okay, I see what the problem is here. I'm just watching the balance go up and down on the backtesting chart when, in fact the original orders are still in tact and it hasn't done a closeall yet. As soon as it does, however, it rectifies itself. So, ...

ecTrade replied Feb 24, 2011Or, maybe what we could do is limit the hedge to one entry point, and set it at say, 150% and, if the price really starts to trend, we try stretching it out as far as we can using RSI settings. And, if it doesn't reach tp_in_money target, it won't ...

ecTrade replied Feb 24, 2011The main idea was to look at the price over two or three time frames in an attempt to smooth out some of the spikes, so the hedge doesn't fire too late -- especially -- and immediately turn around and retrace 100-200 points. Because that really ...

ecTrade replied Feb 24, 2011The thing is, it's closing out all the trades before the tp_in_money is hit, and I don't think it's supposed to do that? I understand what you're saying, although it shouldn't matter if it wasn't closing out prematurely. Maybe there's something else ...

ecTrade replied Feb 24, 2011Hey, sounds good! That's because it's setup to work with the RSI filter. I was just using the -10 points as the RSI cutoff point. So, would it be better to have the option to set it externally? I was just getting ready to do that anyway. It's funny, ...
