Today I had been doing some testing... looks like having entries on the original range has better performance (not the +5 pips)... also stops would not be triggered that easy if using oposite range... +15 target has made RRR much better and makes possible using so far away stops... thats at this points my inputs... nothing formal yet, just looking from a very general perspectives....

 

in resume what I actually looked at is :

 

Entry: 1 pip above/below break of Range (real one)

 

Exit : +15 pips

 

Stop : oposite range +/- pip

 

 

So far the + performance comes from the amount of positive days vs negative days.... cheers Walter.

walter, i think it would be best if you went ahead and tested the one that you are working on and i will work on the 10pip with a cousion, if you want!!

How long do you want to back test? I thank we are getting close!!:D

Yes Thats a good idea ¡¡... it will give us diferent results and we can see where its the edge on this stats... I dont have much data... I wanted to test 1 year, but dont have that much... I understand you have at least one worth of data, could that be the case ? also what pair will you be testing ? cheers Walter.

Ok, I dont have a year either,I deleted it :mad: but i will get it! I believe USD/JPY would be the right pair.(stick to the same)

 

 

OK so USD/JPY will be it...

 

Could you get 1 year worth of data ?

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.

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.

 

 

Cheers......Blu-Ray

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.

Ok you got it ¡¡ thats the information we needed...

 

I will be trying this procedure I will update you how it went...

 

By the way I am planing to do a paralel test with this simple rules :

 

Entry: 1 pip above/below range (3 hours previous to london open)

 

Exit : 10 pips

 

Stop: -10 pips

 

wich means that once you got in is + or - 10 that would give us a 1:1 RRR and the edge would be the amount of positive days vs negative days...

 

 

Thanks Don for this great information ¡¡¡ cheers Walter.

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful.
