11.0 trading sessions

[lionsden]

I updated the session box on page 1 post 1 now version GMT 11.01 Changes were:

Change the time in the indi to GMT time to synchronize all to the same Time and not broker time.
Change the USA session to its correct time of open.
Changed the ending time of each session so there would be a 30M break from line to line.
There was a third line added so lines can go up to +/- 30 will decide later if I want to keep it.

SO PAGE 1 POST has the updated version.

Thanks for that Bob! I will test ASAP.

Bob, I have programmed your jumping stop loss thingy. There might be a few bugs to iron out - we shall have to see. The bot is an auto-trader, but we can always adapt the code if you still want to be able to tell the ea which direction to trade, and to shut down after finishing its work. I decided to code the auto-trader first.

I tested this in Forex tester 40 trades GBP/JPY profit trades 17 loss trades 23.
10 pips buy/sell stop. 20 pips. sl and 20pips tp . used 1 lot per trade.

net profit -1329.46. dd -2857. profit probability 42%. loss 58% london, new york and tokyo opens

tested the 26 day upto 9/9/2001

anyone else able to put some meat on the bones before i continue? problem seemed to be that even if got the direction right it would pull back and give a last kiss to my SL

maybe im doing something wrong.

Surprising I back tested 20 pairs just for today on Eur and US session. Got 250 pips profit.Note : It should be 10 pip target and not 20 pip.

Basically testers are crap sooooo ............ try this sometime. Do live trades for a month and then do the back tester. They wont even be close.

Basically back testers lack intelligence. Your tests would not include closing all trades after 2 hours into a session and restarting the next session. Avoiding news. Not trading certain sessions, like audnzd session.They dont include the constantly changing spreads, etc. etc.

Thanks Steve, I will get into that.

Please let me know if the market open lines are opening at the market. I had to adjust the jpy open lines this morning. I am using the 11.01 on page 1.

I switched to the new GMT indicator and it did not start until 3 candles into the 2nd session. I have a GMT demo so I think I will go back to the first one and check it tomorrow.
