Hi Jr.
One must define his own risk- but need to know how. If you trade 4 position with a 48 point SL, you are risking 192/5000*100=3,84%. it will continue until until your equity allow you to risk 3% with min 4 position, or you get a margin call.

Hello
I’ve updated first page with V3 and V4, already post in the topic, and GBPUSD_15m_long.
Regards
Thank you Ale!
Is the difference between V3 and V4 only the trailing stop settings?
Hey guys! Here are two new versions: one is for AUDUSD 30M and the other one is for Bund 30M.
I have gone down in periods for the fractal which generates a lot more trades than in previous systems. The AUDUSD doesn’t pass the WFR in current stage and needs some more love. I anyone of you find a solutions please let me know! The Bund version is more solid but there are still things left to try!

@Victor
in V3 version I tried to use 3 different fractal level, CP 113 of the original version not filtered, while the others CP 108 and 100 filtered by a body>30 pip of the signal candles. I also added second take profit after 050000 PM. I’ve also enalrged trailing stop to 10
In v4 version I’ve added the possibility to open 2 contract instead 1 of the original version. Second contract open if the body>30 signal candles.
to this strategy on EURUSD, everything can be added.. 20 versions could be made..
My version Are only examples, nothing of perfect..
Thanks for your explanation Ale. Have you tried to change the variables depending on if the system is taking a long or short trade?
I have worked a bit more on the FBS on Bund and decided to split the system in long and short which gave a better combined return. New ideas on how to improve my versions are most appreciated.

@victormor – good to see you separating long and short components. Nice work.
@Ale – I will take a look at this when I get the chance.
@ Maz – I’ve taken your advise. Now when I’ve started to split long and short I understand why system developers do this. The possibilities to see (understand) your systems weaknesses and improve them are insane..

Yep, not only do you get better optimization ability you can also manage risk better too. You also get separate equity curves – a quick and easy snapshot of which side is performing better and what market conditions are better to what side.
FYI I have tried to use a short moving average as training stop for this type of strategy and it works better for some markets.

Hello
victor, have you find other market wi th good peobacktest?
Thanks

Hi Ale,
On 100 000 bars I have a promising result on bund 30 min and 1 h. The long side is however much better than the short due to resent market behaviour. I think I’ve also found a way to improve the audusd. Will check tomorrow when I get back to work. I have put my focus on shorter periods for the fractal which gives a lower hit rate but a more frequent trading. I don’t know what’s best. Hard to tell without 200k bars.
