It’s difficult to admit that a strategy is better with ovrnight and overweek… With the current geopolitical context, I’m really torn about this!!!
Vectorial DAX v2 (WFE) //with Paul contribution
Vectorial US100 v2(WFE) // with bullbear contribution
Hello
I m using this 2 strategies in live trading and for the moment perfect. Let s see in the future. Here are the live trading reports.
Thanks
Could someone backtest the US100 with 200K? 🙂
Hello
Put me the file itf and i will do the test
Bye
I tried to optimize the code for US100 but the results are not that good. So I’ curious to see your version @Sandro2017 if you don’t mind. I could test it with 200K too if needed.
Here s the file i used ,
my 200000 bars backtest is ok with IG trading broker
test it and put here your backtest results
Thanks

us100, basic strategy not modified
working on the last bits.
Here is my backtest with @Sandro2017 version. @Paul I tried but I can’t the parameters you use for your v5. And with the v4.5 the results are not fine.

alright, both latest versions.
Thanks
I was just looking for the last versions of US100 and DAX codes.
So let s put them both on demo mode.
@paul Can I continue use both v2.0 or do you thing there s a big danger to continue use them. Until now perfect.
Thanks again 🙂 🙂
Hello Paul,
congratulations for your strategy, the results are very impressive and thank you for sharing.
The only negative thing I found is that at times a trade can last several days. Example on UK100, a trade lasts 3 weeks in August 2018.
For that I saw that you had an option to cut the Friday night, unfortunately profitability drops hugely.
Is this a strategy that you use in real life and with which broker? On IG overnight and overweek fees are important.
Thanks !

@Sandro2017 both have their advantages. Perhaps stay at v2 and run latest in demo to compare
@tba69 good point that trade can last too long.
ps. I don’t run this strategy live just in demo.
Just an idea to cut the days a trade is active without impacting results too much. Once it’s closed it can open a position again in the same direction, so it creates more trades.
once closelastingtrades=1
if closelastingtrades then
if (not onmarket or ((longonmarket and shortonmarket[1]) or (longonmarket[1] and shortonmarket))) then
count=0
endif
if onmarket then
IF OpenDay <> OpenDay[1] THEN
count = Count + 1
endif
IF count = 1 THEN
if pp>2 then
sell at market
exitshort at market
endif
elsif count = 2 THEN
if pp>1.5 then
sell at market
exitshort at market
endif
elsif count =3 THEN
if pp>1 then
sell at market
exitshort at market
endif
elsif count = 4 THEN
if pp>0 then
sell at market
exitshort at market
endif
elsif count = 5 THEN
sell at market
exitshort at market
endif

@Paul Ok thats what im doing at the moment.
I ever heard that a trading robot never can win in the long run. What dou you personally think about that. Do you have already a trading robot that you make you some money for a good time.
The advantages of trading robots for me is that no emotions are present so less trading errors…
Thanks in advance

Probably 90% or more robots will fail in the long run I think, especially ones based on a short timeframe.
Maybe not if the Systems are re-optimised on a periodic basis (found by reference to WF results) to adapt to changes in the market etc
