Feels great learned lot but i wanna ask that is automated trading is good than manual trading? Thanks for your suggestion.. Is that true? Both are challenging, and both can be profitable. Do you know why this is? Hi Tony, There might be different reasons.
When back testing with Metatrader you need to look at the currency spread you are using. For this test I used 20, that is 2.
The other aspect is the data set you are using. In my case the data was obtained from Alpari UK via a direct request to the broker, and not a download from MetaTrader historical center. Thanks for dropping by. The difference between method 1 and 2 isn't only frame? Don't you just have to change these parameters? Also, do you still plan to code it? Hi Geoffrey, There is another vital difference which complicates it.
And it is that, if you have a winning trade then you don't take the next signal. Plus a couple other minor details. I still plan to code it but I have so much going on between family, work plus other projects that I dont know when I'lll get my hands on it.
Cheers, LT. Hi Henrik, Could you please explain to me how "if you have a winning trade then you don't take the next signal" would play out? If that's the case, what is the process of opening a new trade if the last one resulted positive? Hey Victor, Note that the rule you mention is related to the Method 1, which is not the one published here. Method 1 is much harder to program and I have been working on it for months in the middle of my time constraints. But, to your question, if the last trade was positive gains the next one is not taken.
You only trade after a loser. This guide is very comprehensive with exquisite details. The thing that I don't understand is: Why would a following trade not being taken? So according to the original system, if you win 1 trade, how much time would you need to wait to take another one, a complete year? Or what would be the new "trigger"? As I suppose it's not the case to completely stop trading indefinitely after just one winning closed position.
It would be totally absurd, don't you think? Thank you very much for your kind help and support! You take a trade, if you lose, you will trade the next one, if you lose you will take the next one. If you ever win, then on the next entry signal you skip it but simulate what would have happened with that trade. If this skipped trade would have resulted in a losing trade then you will take the next signal.
In other words you will only trade a signal when the previous one was a loser whether you traded it or skipped it is irrelevant if the precious trade was a loser traded or skipped then you will take the next signal.
The rule is in place because long term trend followers tend to have many losses. AND particularly with shorter term break outs 20 days the fake outs happen even more frequently.
That's why the longer term break out 55 days is always taken as it leads to fewer fake outs. How long without trading? Not sure, we would have to run the numbers and IT will vary depending on instrument but for sure much less than a year. Hello Lazy Trader, good day. I'm interested in this EA. I almost finish coding it, but I'm having trouble moving the Stop Loss.
Is the file format in. Best regards and thank you, Gerardo. Hi Gerardo, The package is sold with the ex4 file only as most ppl wouldn't know what to do with an mq4 anyways. But I can send you the mq4 on a separate email. Regards, Henrik. Hello Henrik, I have a few more questions before buying this EA: 1. With which currency pairs does this EA works best? Was this return with only one currency pair? Have you had any profit with it this year? Hi Henrik, I'd like to ask similar questions to Gerardo above.
If not, could you please explain why? Thanks, Simon. Depends on how well the currency pairs trend. For example I haven't obtained good results on JPY pairs as they tend to move more erratically.
His recruits, later known as the Turtles, had anything but traditional Wall Street backgrounds; they included a professional blackjack player, a pianist, and a fantasy game designer. For two weeks, Dennis taught them his investment rules and philosophy, and set them loose to start trading, each with a million dollars of his money. By the time the experiment ended, Dennis had made a hundred million dollars from his Turtles and created one killer Wall Street legend.
Covel, bestselling author of Trend Following and managing editor of TurtleTrader. He describes how Dennis interviewed and selected his students, details their education and experiences while working for him, and breaks down the Turtle system and rules in full. He reveals how they made astounding fortunes, and follows their lives from the original experiment to the present day.
Some have grown even wealthier than ever, and include some of today's top hedge fund managers. Equally important are those who passed along their approach to a second generation of Turtles, proving that the Turtles' system truly is reproducible, and that anyone with the discipline and the desire to succeed can do as well as—or even better than—Wall Street's top hedge fund wizards.
In an era full of slapdash investing advice and promises of hot stock tips for the next big thing, as popularized by pundits like Jim Cramer of Mad Money, the easy-to-follow objective rules of the TurtleTrader stand out as a sound guide for truly making the most out of your money.
These rules worked—and still work today—for the Turtles, and any other investor with the desire and commitment to learn from one of the greatest investing stories of all time.
