Morning-Seasonality (EU Session) – EUR/USD 15min
-
I would like to introduce a very nice and simple strategy. Unfortunately it is not mine. I found it on https://www.trading-treff.de/wissen/handelsstrategie-fuer-daytrader-im-eurusd-backtest-inklusive and rebuilt it once. It just make Short-Trades, because Long-Trades would increase the Equity curve. As you can see, it works quite well (Spread: 1). If someone can test it for a longer period of time, that would be nice. If someone had an idea to minimize the drawdowns a bit, it also would be nice.

Thanks for sharing! Did give it a spin and I’am surprised about the results!
defparam cumulateorders = false DEFPARAM FLATBEFORE = 100000 DEFPARAM FLATAFTER = 140000 noEntryBeforeTime = 100000 timeEnterBefore = time >= noEntryBeforeTime noEntryAfterTime = 140000 timeEnterAfter = time < noEntryAfterTime daysForbiddenEntry = OpenDayOfWeek = 6 OR OpenDayOfWeek = 0 indicator1 = Average[200](close) c1 = (close < indicator1) if c1 and timeEnterBefore AND timeEnterAfter AND not daysForbiddenEntry THEN sellshort 5 contract at market endif SET STOP %LOSS 1Paul, i have good result but maybe not enough history. Could you test 200K on UT1 with
indicator1 = Average[50](close)The best results are with the average between 70 and 120
indicator1 = Average[80](close)Tips: you can backtest this strategy with a 1hour timeframe, it give very similar results and the backtest is much longer.
Also, you can reduce the %LOSS to 0.5-0.75
It does not affect the G/L ratio, but it helps to reduce the max loose for 1 trade.
I join you the report with TF=1hour, spread=0.6, average=80, %LOSS=0.75
What if you still pay attention to the moneymanagement. I like the argument of the compound interest. I inserted it from this link:
https://www.prorealcode.com/blog/learning/money-management-prorealtime-code/I hope I have inserted this correctly … does not look bad, but I have not tested if that works. (EUR/USD mini)

Its the Resault with the max Profit and not with the min Drawdown. With SMA80 there is a big Drawdown from 2012 -2016. With the SMA 14 its much better but since 2020 a little worse.indicator1 = Average[14](close)Nicolas and Midlanddave thanked this post
