Hi,
I think we all try to do something like you. Some tips what I painfully learn during the process:
– use mini contracts for testing your algorithm live.
– set your maximum lost per trade
– If thinks are very bad, use the function “quit” inside the coding for deactivate the system
– if you use multiple variables and combination, then your program is prone to be overoptimize
-if you lost get the most of it and keep programming other scenarios for improve your favorite system
And do not give up. This is what keep me going on: if we make one system , at least one system! than win X euro per week then you can use it in different markets and time frames then you have X€ times (number of markets) times (number of time frames) …mmmmm yummi yumi!
