Dear Mat

I have been running your TDesk setup from Post 3
Global Prime DEMO
0.01 Lots

The results look nice and consistent so far. I will start uploading to FXTesting :clap: :clap: :clap:

Thanks for sharing

Cheers Richard

Hey Richard,

it ain't much but this setup it constantly delivers profits with a relatively low drawdown. :good:

Maybe a a more conservative ratio of lot size per balance could be favourable in making this setup more progressive... Thinking of 0.01 lots per 500 in balance :?:

Anyways, what is your Group Name and Setup Name for FXTestify. I will also upload my data but I want to be uniform with yours to keep FXTestify clean and readable.

Very happy that someone gave it a try!! :clap: :clap: :clap:

Cheers,

Mat

:hi:
Mat,

Thank you for all your contributions!
:clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:
I read all your post with great interest as you always have something well overthought to share!
Your MAPC is a masterpiece in how to use TDESK and I have been running it OOB since May 19.
The balance is up 23% but at the moment in a 15% draw down due to the aggressive setting.
I'm confident it will recover but will start another test with lower lot size.

Cheers,
Ben

MAPC

Post by Ehrenmat »

Hey Ben and Richard,

thank you very much for your feedback. I'm really happy to drag the attention of the veterans here! :D

There's this saying "Two is company, three is a crowd" and with this, I would like to start a forward test run on FXTestify:

:rocket: To all folks on SHF: Hereby, I invite you all to join our forward test on MAPC. :rocket:
DESK-MAPC.zip
GroupNameForTestDatabase: DESK
ExpertNameFor TestDatabase: MAPC

I just started three setups today which will be visible in 2 weeks from now on FXTestify:

- This setup with a hard lot size of 0.01
- One setup with 0.01 lots per 500 balance
- One setup with 0.01 lots per 400 balance

In terms of being efficient on ressources, I have reduced the setup to the UBDs that are really needed. Furthermore, I have set up Desky with the according group and expert name for FXTestify AND I reduced the grid trading to 3 plus an immediate trade. This should lower the drawdown naturally in cases of a larger counter trend.

Feel free to change anything you want in Desky's Inputs. :cheer:
BUT PLEASE: Leave the UBDs and TDesk settings unchanged - trading pairs excluded. :youknow:

For my demos, I use the crim ICMarkets which provides 33 trading pairs with considerable spreads. I clearly don't recommend ICM here but I see it as an advantage to have 33 possibilities which gives us more data in the same time.

Aaaand: If a setup works with one of the dirty players then it should do really fine with the good ones like GP ;)

Have a good week and see you on FXTestify!

Cheers,

Mat

Very nice to see you on board, Richard! :clap:

In this case, I shut down my demo with the 0.01 lot and try something different with this Empty4 instance. I'm thinking of some kind of a hedging strategy... :idea:

Will come back with more in case it has legs :geek:

Cheers,

Mat

I use GlobalPrime so I have to remove GBPSGD and CHFSGD from the UBD and TDesk.

Hey Ehrenmat and all

Wondered if there were any updates for the testing of this. Looked really promising, but I don't have any test slots left

thanks, trader

Hey trader,

what looked really promising in the beginning turned out to be a non-starter :arrrg: :cry:

Mat
