Disliked{quote} If it was your first basket, I would still go check the dates and data out. In the past, I have ran strategy tester by setting dates of Jan 1st and strategy tester had a mind of it's own and decided to start on December 19th!lol

DislikedThis Is The Visual Virtual Tester, I Made It To Test This Strategy Like On The Paper, Because Testing On Metatrader Will Lead To Wrong Results, And This Tester Can Work On Real Prices Or Our Up And Down Button Hits. I Will Do Some Modifications And Attach it Soon. {image}Ignored
Disliked{quote} @keydcuk It was a forward test with live data. (All my tests are done with LIVE market data.)Ignored
DislikedHA! Just seen my first negative basket closed. As I didn't think it was due to EA, I went to see what I thought the real problem was... IT WAS A MONDAY CLOSING BASKET AFTER A WEEKEND GAP IN THE MARKET THAT MADE THE GRID POSITION SLIGHTLY ASYMMETRICAL TO THE REST!I wonder if this happened in your earlier scenario MG?

Disliked{quote} There will often be baskets closed negative because of the profit buffer / shared profit So you have to give some back from time to timeIgnored
Dislikedhttps://charts.mql5.com/10/743/usdch...al-markets.pngng Does anyone know why all positions are open a long, Nor even one short.Ignored
Disliked{quote} Oh right! I noticed though that it is not just Ab's EA that does this. When I was testing Voldemar's EAs I was seeing this too. Can't complain... THEY'RE PIPPING MACHINES! Just want to see the strategy work as it should. Haven't seen Voldemar for a while. I wonder if he's lost the interest?Ignored

Disliked{quote} Can you elaborate on this a bit? I am trying to get an understanding of how the strategy incorporates this. If you could provide an example with a bit more detail, it would greatly be appreciated. It's one thing to be elated about this strategy and EA but it is better if I knew why things happen the way they do. I'm not sure in what you are saying because the whole purpose is to analyse this and to close only in profit. Any input from anybody else?Ignored
Disliked{quote} we got A-side and B-side filled with a few positions while price is moving up Now there is a pullback of one level and we close the highest position on B together with the lowest (means pricelevel) Let's assume we made a profit of 20$ Half of that profit goes into a virtual pool If we now look at the A-Side we want to get rid of the worst position So we add the profit positions of A plus what's in the pool and this must be >= the negative profit of the worst position And because of the virtual pool the balance can decrease after the close...Ignored
Disliked{quote} What is your take on IWJW's comment? Do you think that it is the strategy's profit buffer and shared profit that will bring occasional baskets to close negatively or do you think there is something in the EA that needs to be scrutinized?Ignored
Disliked{quote} @keydcuk Based on "Video Part 2" some countertrend trades can be closed in loss, but ONLY IF these losses are completely balanced out by profits of already closed "trend direction" trades. In other words: losses can (and should) happen only after closed profits.Ignored

DislikedI'm running APG_04 on 3 differents pairs - E/U, U/J and G/U - with differents magic number. I choose pais with high volatility to see how it handle the trades and to check the DD. I will post the results here tonight with my settings to discuss. Hope there is no bug because i'm not in font of my PC. Best regards JBIgnored
