    Hi

    I get an Equity Curve that shows a Profit but the Detailed Report shows a Loss with this Ichimoku strategy below: Pls see image.

    I was testing on the hourly £/$ between the 25th Jan 2018 and the 4th Oct 2019 with a 3.8 pip spread.

    Any reason why?

    Cheers

    No image attached.

    Is there a trade open and is it in Profit?

    Detailed Report does not take account of Open Trades.

    Yeah that Short is giving the profit, all other trades are losers??

    Hi @GraHal sorry for the delay getting back to you and thanks for taking a look at this. I can’t now seem to replicate it today. No idea what actually happened as normally the equity curve and detailed reports always match up!

    I stripped out the time of day trades could take place and number of trades restrictions and optimised the  s, m, and l values, leaving the Stop at 2.5% and still couldn’t get any great returns on 1 and 4 hourly but 9, 13, and 44 on a daily time frame at £10/tick produced 43% returns. with a 28% drawdown.

    However I tried just optimising the stop loss only and leaving the default settings of 9, 26 and 52 and it worked okay: Optimised stop of 0.5% stop loss (Daily £/$, 25th Jan 2018 to 3rd Oct 2019). I think there are better Ichimoku strategies on this forum.

    Was it not what I offered in the post below … it seemed to fit exactly to what you were saying where the symptoms??

    Only if there is no open trade.

    The Detailed Report shows figures for closed trades only.

    Equity Curve shows figures for closed trades AND any Open Trades.
