At the same time I set up a £20K account trading 0.01 per £2k
This is now in DD due to AUD/NZD. Since taking this trade I adjusted the Stoh to read daily signal too.
I have trading balance filters set to true here, which cuts down the number of trades dramatically.
I'm very happy with the results so far, but believe there is room for improvement (I would like to get the fill gap working after sending an immediate market trade & 3 Pendings, if the price goes against us). And that's why I'm sharing the templates.

Hey r1ch4rd
Thanks so much for the share. I like the equity curve in your first settings, and keep us posted on how these both pan out
All the best for 2021

PS do the settings work with the new tdesk 7.3?

It should do yes.

ok thanks, it's just that I tried loading a 6.81 template onto one of my demos after having updated tdesk etc to 7.3 - and the platform froze. I think one of the main things when porting over like tomele said is to 'copy your former list of symbols from PairsToTrade to a notepad and then paste it into the new input field SymbolsToInclude' .
I ended up having to manually save all the indicators and ea settings from the old templates, then re-load them all individually onto a fresh chart, making sure I did the above the 'copying symbol list' step above for each one, and then having to re-save that chart as a new 'xyz etc_7.3' template, fwiw

Hi.
You terminal probably froze because the new default trade list of TDesk and the Universal Drones contains 28 pairs and isn't overwritten by your setfiles due to the changed input names. If you have many drones running, it can take a while until all is initialized. Esp. when using HGI.
Please consider using the new input options instead of just copying a lengthy list again. Just saying.
Anyway, very well done figuring everything out by yourselves. You are stars.
Stay well and safe.

Hey Folks,
Another week of testing under the belt. I ditched the BE set and AUD/NZD is still buggering around with my £20K test account (But I'll keep it running for the mean time. It is currently at 8% gain with max DD of 6.11%).
My small test account is still doing well at 57% gain.
I have set up another £1k demon having tweaked the 2 time frames it reads from the Stoh indi, 0.01 per £500.
(SS is H1,H4,D1 & W1; MA cross M5; Stoh M5 & H4) all must be in agreement, Immediate mkt trade, 3 x 30 pip limit order grid & 20pip individual basket TP. 1500% minimum margin & Trading balance filters are true to cut the DD.
(I am no longer running this set as I thought it was too similar to the one I have been running since the beginning of December (also to free up some memory). I have had some thoughts on entry and reducing risk and will try emulate them with TDesk and Desky.)
I continue to run the small account (currently +60%) and the £20K account (+9%) with some success although they are currently on the wrong side of EU and AN as I write this. Lets see.......

Hi r1ch4rd, Did it make any trade today or the past few days? I've had it running on my Empty4 for about 4 days or so and it hasn't taken on any trades. Wondering if I missed something or set something up wrong. I DID make two tweaks, setting the criminal ECN/prime to false and FIFO to true but can't se where that would bother anything really.r1ch4rd » Sat Jan 09, 2021 8:06 am wrote:Hey Folks,

Thanks.
I uploaded the 2 templates above and trades were taken immediately.
If you get a highlighted super signal on TDesk, Desky should open a trade immediately.
Check that your fixed margin percentage under Margin checks is in line with your account size as Richards setting are aggressive. I changed mine to fixed lots to trade smaller.
Lastly, check that Desky's magic number is the same as Tdesk's magic number.
Hope it helps
Cheers.
