This is what I am trying these sets for .. to see what happens. Although the recovery option doesn't have much to do with it as using the symbol close is pretty much the same thing. Just not differentiating between 1 trade being open or 5 etc that's all. Except the more trades open the less average pips they need to close in profit so thats the idea with recovery anyway.spyderman » Thu Sep 07, 2017 11:54 pm wrote:

Do you find that with no recovery you get some pairs heading the wrong way, never to return?
With this particular set for example the question is how often will a pair go 500+pips outside of its yearly range without retracing 50% + £5 to get closed? And if this happens regularly then what I am I going to do to do about it
You'll notice the similar set in our basket forward test. Where I am comparing H1 with and without Superslope. I did not expect without to stay ahead for long but right now it is and I am interested to see how this progresses.
Being able to test all the possibilities with this EA is already making me question things I have relied on and that have been successful in my manual trading. And that is a very helpful aspect to all this. It is good to question things even when they are working!
and the EA was maxed out this week and last week for several days each time and wasnt starting anymore cycles to assist recovery. Actually dont mind this as it stops overtrading which often takes us further down the minus equity path. Current drawdown about $790. 10K account.
