Hi @all.

9 months hands-free trading and 80,000 pips. Not too bad.

Thanks for bringing your results up, well done Tomele!

Hope you don't mind me asking as I still have 2 questions though after inspecting your set file.
Do you only use the friday closure as take profit?
What version of SPB are you using?

Hi Nick.

Indeed a well-considered question. I am using version 1L and you might know that the Friday close didnt't work in this version. So to answer your question, I don't use any stops or targets. Only opposite signals.

Nevertheless, I will analyze all my trades in the next two weeks and set up some slightly different demos. Especially "CloseMarketTradesOnOppositeColor" could possibly bring an improvement when set to true. As far as I can see for the moment.

Cheers
Thomas

"Unknown" means the input has been added for a new feature in a later version. You have to think and disable all those features to get a newer version running like 1L.

I will set up some tests with the actual SPB version soon.

91,820 pips for the year. Worth to dig a bit into.

Stuff like these are encouraging (ie. gives us mere mortals hope!). Thanks for sharing your results. If you do not mind sharing your set file (I know you mentioned you were using set #1733 on FVTestify a few posts back, but I am unable to access this for some reason), it would be most appreciated. Also, what was your max DD?

I don't know how you did it, I only made 21,000 pips for the year. However, that was enough for me to more than double my live account. I made a few manual trades as well.

Hi @all.

Hope you all had a brilliant start into the new year.

I just made my settings and left my hands off. You can find all details on FXTestify.

Sorry, but I DO mind. Why should I post this here? It is all available in deepest detail at FXTestify. Do you really mind contributing that little bit requested for accessing FXTestify?

Fair enough. Just for the record, I did actually try to participate at FXTestify when it first started (I think if I remember correctly, I tried SPB and PoS) but I kept getting errors to do with the stop loss with my settings (for whatever reason, the EAs did not appear to like me setting SL at 1000pips or something, i don't know). When I tried to seek assistance on the forum as to why I was getting the errors (which did not make sense as one should be able to set up to 1000pips stop loss if one choses), I was threatened with a ban, so I gave up.

Anyways, I have started a test with the FXT-SPB-1 setting a few days ago, but still unable to access the restricted area of FXTestify. Maybe I have not generated enough trades; will keep trying. Thanks
