Re: The "FHR" Trades

Ok ¡¡ I will recap What I am going to do this weekend then :

I will manually backtest the following strategy :

Entry: 1 pip above/below break of Range (3 hour range before london open)

Exit : +15 pips net (will be a +13 pips gain after EFX comissions and spread)

Stop : oposite range +/- 1 pip and -2 pip costs


I will test USD/JPY since january 11 2005

I will only take one break per day.

So far this little set rules will be implemented on my backtest... with stats being on my hands after this plus an overall discretionary overlook.. then I will know what details can be changed to curve the results into a better performance... I hope I get this done before monday, we will see... cheers Walter.

Re: The "FHR" Trades

Just a quick question Walter

How come you're using the 3 hour range before London Open and not just the 1 hour before as previously discussed.

eg 5am-8am rather than 7am-8am BST.

Well that was an interesting modification Don did... i think it makes more robust and harder to break areas of the pre-london open so if you get a break there you will be more biased to expect some more action on that direction at least a sure foot 10 to 15 pip move... thats what this test its all about... so far at hindsight lots of positive days... cheers Walter.
