It is confusing here why 3 orders are opened at the same time image And then after closing 2 buy orders(#1 and #3) there is a sell position (#2) with the size of 0.2 Then another sell position (#4) is opened with a 0.4 lot and both sell orders are ...

Ideas and misunderstandings of Robin 1.1 I cannot turn comments off in back-testing. As far as I think it is everyone's problem with mt4 circumstances, it is better to put a boolean in settings to turn the comments off beside the button. At least ...

About using ATR as a progression level, it is a good idea first of all. But it needs good optimizations to be accurate. In my view, short-term intraday ATR is not that reliable due to different sessions' true rang. What if we use 2 different ATR ...

Irrelative question! You need to have the indicator original file in (.mq4) format not .ex4. Then just open it in (MetaEditor4) and modify it.

Hello Chao First of all thanks for the new version. I wanted to test the M_3.0 version. But something happened that I'd like to share with you. The parameter for chasing the profit I set to 2. Therefore, as I got from your explanation when a long ...

Let me put it this way and if I'm wrong please correct me. Imagine, min_lots=0.01 and progression of lot size is 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04 etc. Let's say max_positions = 5 so in the worst case scenario, we would have 5 positions with 0.15 lots in total ...

The reason behind the more longevity of 300 EUR account in comparison with 3000 EUR account was probably because of "Error not enough money" if you check the journal tab ;-) BTW what was your set in this BT? You said you got good results with the ...

Hi Emmanuel Sure I'll do. However, it needs better historical data as well as optimizations on each pair. Former is possible to be downloaded, latter one needs precise attention and take time but definitely necessary. Anyone else optimized the ...

Metaquotes history has issues that prevent backtesting properly. This is a BT with my own broker's history but with Grid Progress = 3 instead of 0: (By changing it to 0 it was a margin call) image This one is also with my broker's history data but ...

As you already said your historical data is for meta trader. Can you kindly check with another history? Your broker's history for instance. I will double check as well to see which history caused the same settings to a call margin

Hello traders. I have put 2 pins of MADdash on EAX as well as some others. As far as I understood, for MADdash we need to put the MADdash indicator on 2 separate windows of a pair which is not one of the 28 pairs. Then we have to load 2 different ...
