Thread: My Trades by GreatYves.

You view trough me and my robot so well...
Range is chalenging for the robot.

Ok. You're right Itme, was waiting to see what could happen in a range like today on GBP. Not a Range but a Robot Nightmare came accurate. The Robot got whipsaw allright today... Another day in this way in a row and would need to go Demo again. LOL. No I really see today the pitfall of the system as the whole week can easily remain in a range. Maybe you can help me . My system follow a great MA programmed by Igorad. Maybe you know TREND Laboratory? It keep me in trade during trend and filter some deviation. So I trade just market hour and only stick to the indior.But that I would like to enhance the system, I would like a way to identify when to lower /lower the risk. My system is far from solid. It need fiddling. I want help at this.

ITME. I started assessing Elliott and would be interested to take part in any way I could to your project. I am presently a 40 year-old professionnel security system service tech working full time for 20 decades and finally I found something that interest my mind so much I do not sleep enough and lost 60 pounds in the last 6 month. (making me all slim first time in my entire life!!) I tried all type of trend following system and yes they all work when it trends. They all have the very same problems in day like today. I saw some of fixme1too call about the eur and gbp and has been surprised by the precision. Anyhow I see I can help and would love to assist at analysing. I started the GBPUSD since it have the most volatility a fad follower may wished but perhaps it's not quite as specialized as GBPJPY or EURJPY?? Anyhow, I am trying to meet fantastic minds that could become buddy and I am just prepared to place my time and mind power at proper use.

Periods once the market is stuck in a narrow range or moves across a little erratically can be challenging for some robots, but then the market breaks out eventually and the profits start accruing again. And your period of hell and purgatory was mercifully brief and mild. I expect it's onward and upward from here.

My journey has been several years in the making, and that I really don't know for certain if I have a product that can perform as I trust it will. Backtesting mechanically is not possible with my system, therefore I am going to need to simply make a go of it live, after codifying my routine and backtesting it manually for a couple of months.

I've been a jerk. Total jerk. . Forgot all I've been saying . Reading various other individuals here made understand how greedy and dumb I had been... I did not wish to talk about what I was actually doing. Let us fix it together if anyone want to help you're welcome to talk about your ideas/opinions. Many brains at this will maybe enhanced the system. I really don't wish to call the method my own. Even if nobodys doing it this way. If anyone is doing it, you're very welcome to explain your system.

1st. I've develloped a mecanical robot trader I could feed any signal to exchange at Oanda. I really don't know if I could say here how this work because Oanda bill 600$/weeks for the API to autotrade them. I really don't need them to reduce my account. Allow me to know if I could say how to do it here.

2nd. The Signal: I've been using NonLagMAv7 out of TrendLaboratory to give me buy/sell signal over a M30 chart on GBP USD.

3rd. The consequences: Extremely responsive method, to much. It' awfully paying as its cool like last week (up 235 percent ), but extremely poorly performing on a range market similar to this week(down 66 percent ). To the stage I quit using it. I can not suffer 66 percent (or more) drawdown, it's ridiculous.

4th. What I've done today: I place another MA about the chart the AdvanceAMAv1 again from tendency laboratory on longer ma to filter out the trade. I just take commerce in the sens shown from the AMA rather than taking any signal.

I shifted my TF into H1, here a pict of the chart, I will post the settings I got latter tonight, it did not take this morning commerce because the fast ma should reverse following the slow ma to be able to spend the trade. I want to leave to my day job.

Ok, NonlagMA reverse in concore with AdvanceAMA, and robot took short @ 9657 @ 19:00 EST.. It will close trade on nonlagma buy sign, and will open next trade again only when in accore withAMA again.

That I wiil report manual bactest as soon I can create them...

I think there is still space for improvement, but its a fantastic start, hopefully future results will reflect backtest results, it was performed manually, the only way to do it properly. I would like to do the entire year to see results from each day, then start insignificant the setting subsequently do backtest again . Until optimum results are achieved...


I need opinions/suggestion seeing if these results are acceptable. Still I accept all suggestions to improve it.

I obtained better results.... Too good to be disclose I think. Anyhow I think I said enough... It is all over ff.

I'm still short since brief since 1.9663, will reverse only when ma feels like it.

Hello! I just read this journal from my beginnings here and found it difficult to read. I was subsequently trading MA cross or anything indior I couldn`t find.

Completly ignorent of support and resistance.

I had been n`t after any good MM neither. I was always 100% in all my trades. No wonder why I left posting here after a few lost.

I am currently following fibonacci trading thread by bobokus along with my MM is two - 3.5% risk only, and also what's cool is that I began having better outcomes. I try taking commerce only on 1 pair at the time, mainly gbpusd since it's a reasonable volatility to the moment and react properly to fibs.

I also try to remain subject. I think that happen to be my worst default since the start.

I foresee the 10-19-06 mouteki awake with specialized tp in the region of 1.9180-1.9214 as the most legitimate signal. This tp projection is also the 6th Fibo degree up from price channel. Wait for a rest of the 1.9000 level to go long. Then get ready for SELL narrative, hopefully for the following 600-750 pip run down if pattern repeat.
