Yet another addition to the wish list..
Could a Higher timframe HGI filter be added to trade in the direction of the last H4 or D1 (if trading H4) HGI Hurst trend arrow. I am finding that a lot of losing H1 trend arrow trades do not have a preceding H4 trend arrow in the same direction ..it would probably result in even fewer trades but would certainly help to pare down the losing ones unless of course we have a day like today where even some of the brokers blew up

Hi,

Think this should not be too challenging to implement.
Btw, it seems alorente suggests to take H4 trades in the D1 direction.

Cheers

Hi all,

Tested Trading hours on backtest with v1.05 last night and it seems to be working fine on visual backtest.
If you encounter any issues with it, then most likely it is due to a wrong input.
v1.05 is pending release after a few more optimizations.

Cheers

Hi all,

v1.05 is in post 1.

20 Jan 15:v1.05

-Added Htf HGI/ Hurst Check option

Code: Select all

extern bool    CheckHtfTradeEntry   = false;
extern int     HtfTradingTimeFrame  = PERIOD_D1;
extern int     HtfLookBackCandles   = 8;
extern bool    HtfTradeTrend	      = true;
extern bool    HtfTradeRAD      	   = true;
extern bool    HtfTradeRange		   = true;
extern bool    HtfTradeWave		   = true;
extern bool    HtfTradeWaveAndTrend	= false;
extern bool    HtfUseHurst          = false;   
extern int     HtfFastMA_Period     = 5;
extern int     HtfFastMA_Shift      = 0;
extern int     HtfSlowMA_Period     = 11;
extern int     HtfSlowMA_Shift      = 0;

To enable set CheckHtfTradeEntry to true.
The code will check the current and previous HtfLookBackCandles for the last Signal.
Use the HtfTradeTrend/RAD/Range/Wave/WaveAndTrend options to determine which Htf signal to follow.
Set HtfUseHurst to enable Hurst check on the higher time frame

-Added Trade Balance filters

Code: Select all

extern bool     UseZeljkoBalancedCcyTrade =false; //Allow only one buy and sell of Currency at one time
extern bool     LimitTradesPerCurrency    =false; //Limit the maximum trades per currency to MaxTradesPerCurrency
extern int		 MaxTradesPerCurrency	  = 2;

UseZeljkoBalancedCcyTrade - allows only one buy and one sell of a currency at one time
LimitTradesPerCurrency - limits the maximum trades of each currency subject to MaxTradesPerCurrency

Would recommend trying out the different combinations to compare.
- Lower Timeframe HGI + Hurst, Higher Timeframe HGI
- Lower Timeframe HGI , Higher Timeframe HGI + Hurst
- Lower Timeframe HGI + Hurst, Higher Timeframe HGI + Hurst ( dont expect much trades)
- Lower Timeframe HGI , Higher Timeframe HGI

As a note, the recommended timeframes by alorente are H4 and D1 for Htf.

Cheers

Has anyone thought about trading this using only the the MA cross as the trigger? and then go for the other 50% of the move.

This is amazing robot and looks very promising. I put it on demo on 20.1.2015 and here is the result for today. Version is 1.05.
I didn't look closer how EA works because I don't have time. I only put EA on demo, but now I must look closer on it.

Gosh !

Great man !

Is all that OOTB with the v 1.05 ? Mine doesn't the do the job really good, I use a bit older version, got very very rarely trades

Have to switch perhaps to the last v 1.05 too !
