Stochy Bob

Post by Telac »

Hello,

Indeed the results of testing so far have been excellent: I have been trying different time frames and settings but the default settings Steve implemented so far are giving the best results. One little anomaly I just noticed that I cannot explain is as follows:
I am using the default SL of 100 on all the pairs I am trading and just noticed that on a new trade taken by GU the actual SL set was only 10 pips which soon after opening was triggered. I flipped through the other charts and found that the SL's set on other open trades were correct at 100 pips. I checked the EA settings on the GU chart to be absolutely sure the settings were correct and indeed the SL is set to 100. Not sure if there is a ghost in my terminal or?? Anyone else notice anything like this?

Steve, just checking.

Under Stochastic inputs, you have used 5,3,3 for the Stoch default where I'm pretty sure Bob is using 7,2,2 - unless I missed a change somewhere. Was that an intentional change to Bob's methods or just using the Empty4 default? Not sure if it makes much difference, but thought I'd bring it up.

You could always try reading post 1 properly Sam. Bog-basic information is what it is for, after all. Imagine how I would have replied to a noob.

Read the effing manual, ok?

Afterprime is the official SHF broker. Read about them at https://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?p=175790#p175790.

I still suffer from OCCD. Good thing, really.

Anyone here feeling generous? My paypal account is always in the market for a tiny donation. pianodoodler@hotmail.com is the account.

Sorry Steve. I really tried to find the answer before I posted. I guess I fall under "Leave these alone unless you know what you are doing." category. Just striving to make sense of it. :oops:

Yes, it's working well for me too. Always on the hunt to make it more well.

Dammit to hell and back Sam, which bit of Telac's pm to me do you not get? The occasional two-syllable word? The occasional sentence with more that three words in it?

For fuck's sake, nobody mentioned any Bob settings for the blasted Stoch thingy in post 1. Are you blind? TELAC WAS ADVOCATING USING STOCH AS THE BLOODY TRIGGER. NOTHING TO DO WITH BOB, FRED, MARIA OR ANYONE ELSE

Sorry to sound a tad cross Sam, but it pisses me off big time when people drag my attention away from important stuff because they are too lazy to read my post 1 properly.

Seriously, how long do you think a noob would have lasted here posting as idiotically as you have?

When this has all blown over and you have decided, finally, to take my advice I will delete these last few posts so you do not appear in posterity as a total tit. In the meantime, shup up - ok?

Same here.
Started my demo (OOTB) on 14 November and so far it's raked in 644 pips with a max drawdown of 61 pips.
This thing is a beast. (and I want to have it's babies!) :smile:

Thanks a million Steve, Bob & Gary!
