Could you add the bb conditions?

@winnie37

add the following conditions in your code

bu= BollingerUp[20](close)

bd= BollingerDown[20](close)

ba= (bu+bd)/2

br= (bu–bd)

c5= ba<ba[1] or high > bu[1]

for long trades it doesn’t seem to be a good filter like with short trades. Further investigation as to be made to understand why.

Paul, great job with long trades.
Trading hours have a big impact on performances. I tweaked @vonasi indicator “most actives hours_v2” in order to validate the best trading hours.
For long trades the best results are between 14 to 21 or at night between 23 to 5 am
For short strades 10 to 14 is good but we can improve performance by opening trades earlier at 8 am. From 8 am to 14, performance only lowers at noon.
I joined 2 screen captures. The first one is a capture of @vonasi indicator. The second one allows to validate that performance is stable other time. I have 100k of data so the test are made since 2016.

I often use the optimiser for time using the code below, optimiser X and Y settings could be, for example … 000000 to 110000 in steps of 001500.

I ignore the no sense times like 047500 which would most likely be the same optimiser result as 046000 or 050000 anyway.

Longentry = Time > X and Time < Y

1	Longentry = Time > X and Time < Y

Just a thought / idea.

Thanks for this advice Grahal. To prevent nonsense time we can maybe change “time” by “hour”.

Hi team!

I tried to modifiy with optimized hours but not sure to abtain a better result.

@Magifina, you talk about long trades but in the V3 version, it seems there are only short trades. Do you confirm? Did you insert these part of the code on your own or did I miss something?

Thanks for this work guys!

Hi Gregg,

You are right. V3 only show short trades. You can add long trades by inverting short conditions. For the time range 11PM to 5AM or 2PM to 9PM works.

Thanks @Magifina for your reply. I agree it increases the results in a good way… But still a ratio less than 2.

Do you keep these DEFPARAM?

DEFPARAM FLATBEFORE = 100000
DEFPARAM FLATAFTER = 180000

1 2	DEFPARAM FLATBEFORE = 100000 DEFPARAM FLATAFTER = 180000

And I will try to add a Trailing Stop or maybe a Breakeven to see if it can change something better.

I took away all conditions because they only improve a little bit max drawdown. It allowed me to test the best time frames.
For short trades 66% of the pêrformance is between 13 to 14.
For long trades most of the performance is between 00 to 01 AM

DEFPARAM CUMULATEORDERS = false

//LONGS
if time = 230000 THEN
buy 1 contract at market
endif

if LongOnMarket and time=050000 then
sell at market
endif

//SHORTS
if time = 100000 THEN
sellshort 1 contract at market
endif

if ShortOnMarket and time=140000 then
exitshort at market
endif

DEFPARAM CUMULATEORDERS = false

//LONGS

if time = 230000 THEN

buy 1 contract at market

endif

if LongOnMarket and time=050000 then

sell at market

endif

//SHORTS

if time = 100000 THEN

sellshort 1 contract at market

endif

if ShortOnMarket and time=140000 then

exitshort at market

endif

Thanks @Magifina! Not very easy to find the right parameters… and I’m not confortable with the Walk Forward tool to test it.

@winnie37, I’m not sure to be the right person to give my version of the code because I’m new in the game but here it is:

positionsize = 1

if time=140000 then
level=highest[2](low)[1]
endif

bu= BollingerUp[20](close)
bd= BollingerDown[20](close)
ba= (bu+bd)/2
br= (bu-bd)

// SHORT
c1= close < dopen(0)
c3= level > max(dlow(1),dlow(2))
c4= (dclose(1)-dopen(1))/dopen(1)*100<0.65
c5= ba<ba[1] or high > bu[1]

if time<130000 then
if c1 and c3 and c4 and c5 THEN
sellshort positionsize contract at market
endif
endif

if time=141500 and low>bd then

if time>141500 and low>bd and (br<br[1] and br[1]<br[2] and br[2]<br[3] and br[3]<br[4]) then

I tried to add a Breakeven code and also a Trailing stop but it doesn’t change results that much. I think it’s because of the very short time we are exposed (about 3 to 4h max).

I’m not very confident with the winrate and ratio… But I’m sure that Master rank like Paul, Nicolas, GraHal, Vonasi or Roberto will have better suggestions 🙂

Hi folks,

Gregg that looks good, nice! You can set multiplier for the atr.

Here is a snippet to play with profit-targets

//alternative profit exit
pp=(positionperf*100)
once profitexit=3
once n            = 200
once p            = 50
once x            = 1
atr=( n*averagetruerange[p])*x
if profitexit=1 then
if not onmarket or ((longonmarket and shortonmarket[1]) or (longonmarket[1] and shortonmarket)) then
flag=0
endif
if pp>=atr then
flag=1
endif
if shortonmarket and flag=1 and open<bd then
exitshort at open stop
endif
if longonmarket and flag=1 and open>bu then
sell at open stop
endif
elsif profitexit=2 then
set target %profit atr
elsif profitexit=3 then
set target %profit 1.50
endif

//alternative profit exit

pp=(positionperf*100)

once profitexit=3

once n = 200

once p = 50

once x = 1

atr=( n*averagetruerange[p])*x

if profitexit=1 then

if not onmarket or ((longonmarket and shortonmarket[1]) or (longonmarket[1] and shortonmarket)) then

flag=0

endif

if pp>=atr then

flag=1

endif

if shortonmarket and flag=1 and open<bd then

exitshort at open stop

endif

if longonmarket and flag=1 and open>bu then

sell at open stop

endif

elsif profitexit=2 then

set target %profit atr

elsif profitexit=3 then

set target %profit 1.50

endif

edit it uses

bu=bollingerup[20](close)
bd=bollingerdown[20](close)

1 2	bu=bollingerup[20](close) bd=bollingerdown[20](close)

Hi the strategy performs poorly for recent few trades, does it have anything to do with Brexit? It seems to give a better sense of security with a tighter stoploss/trailing stop. Cheers
