@ozz87: That is a good strategy here from Francesco but I stopped it because the stop loss is too wide for my taste. If you are searching For strategies that run with little equity I would recommend you to try strategies that work with a tighter SL.

10/05/2017 at 11:36 AM #48252If I may ask how much capital do you have (if you want to answer)?
Then I want to say, sure there is ALWAYS somebody better in programming/developing but most people can learn and get better if they only really try. Just downloading strategies from the forum is not the solution if you are serious about it (at least IMO). Invest some time and develop your own strategies. Downloading code you don’t really know what it is doing and putting it live feels a lot like gambling for me.
10/05/2017 at 12:37 PM #48273Does anyone here still experience the division by zero error on this strategy ? I tried the code fix suggested earlier in #41014 but it did not work so then I put this aside as I couldn’t find another fix. I restarted it in demo yesterday and got the error no less than 3 times since so it’s still not working for me. Thanks.
10/05/2017 at 12:40 PM #48274the way to prevent a division by zero is to avoid a division by zero here is the solution I adopt
hammerup = min(open[1],close[1])>high[1]-(high[1]-low[1]+0.000005)/3 //and timeok
hammerupnegated= max(open,close)<min(open[1],close[1]) and abs(open-close)/(high-low+0.000005)>xany small enough number would do of course
Cheers

So far I’ve learned alot, but will take some time to learn to do my own codes that will be good enough. Tweaking existing strategies and understanding them is also good for learning more I suppose 😉
10/05/2017 at 12:59 PM #4827810/05/2017 at 1:07 PM #48284@ozz87: 5K euro is not that little. I ran the first months on only 2K euro. Using mini contracts you can definitely work with that. Of course it is not really suitable to run big swing strategies on so low capital.
And yes, looking at other people code is definitely a good way of learning. I would complement it with reading a few books and you should be up and running soon.

10/05/2017 at 1:25 PM #48287Despair: Yes, I’m looking at other strategies like the fractal, this one, the “1 min” and others. Running on demo account 🙂 If I find ones I prefer I will see if possible to adapt to other indexes and so on… That’s kind of why I asked which ones are good 😉
