Macd Stochastic Fractal MA5/25 Daily Marylin

[milanese]

Hi José Luis,

I read it like you about three times. In my opinion it is a great strategy and a very good start point for brainstorming. In all my years of experience with forex trading I learned the best way to go ahead is experimenting, exclude what not works and so on...
So I think we are not going around in this thread for nothing , on the contrary...

Cheers

We are all going around about nothing ?

Hi Jose ! Yes I also think that's the point !
And
@milanese: It seems to me the strategy is perhaps pretty good ... so the only question is the avaiability of a bugfree Empty4 version of the bot doing the same things phils EA is trading ! Just my 2 cents ...

Hey Phil, ... DeltaPipsMA25=10; Delta [max] in pips between today and yesterday EMA to allow trade ...

Code: Select all

( PaireMA25[kk,2] - PaireMA25[kk,1] < MACD_DeltaPipsMA25[kk]*Point )

...Radar =8^)

Yes ! DeltaPipsMA25 is the maximum distance allowed between MA25 1/2 or 2/1. That's to allow early trade when price retrace but not when trend is well established ... Philippe

Phil, may I ask: at http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... 905#p66905 you set DeltaPipsMA25=0, in all other settings of Matt or Dudest it is set to 10. What is the impact of this? Thanks Mike

Hi, updating from MM_36 to MM_37 we get a new variable "MaxUnprotectedTrades=2(default)" and "MaxTrades=100(default)" and drop "NbTradeMax" as described in the Change Log.
What does this mean?
Thanks Mike

Hi Mike,

MaxUnprotectedTrades=2(default) means that Marylin opens max 2 trades whithout SL
MaxTrades=100(default) means she can open 100 trades (if Maxtrades -MaxUnprotectedTrades are with SL)

Hi bubble,

welcome
Marylin uses a daily strategy, so patience with her trades is asked Marylin will set a SL at a resonable R/S point and will close the trade if the trend changes. Take the time for reading the entire thread it is worth it.

Cheers

Hi Mike

Param DeltaPipsMA25 allow more or less aggressive trade.

When MACD and Stoch rise a trade signal, MA25 will confirm it only if Delta MA25 N-1/N-2 <= DeltaPipsMA25

So bigger is DeltaPipsMA25, more aggressive is your trade. In other words, Marylin will try to take a trade sooner at the beginning of a retracement... hoping that it is the beginning of a new trend. It can be between 0 - 10

cheers

Hi Tommaso,

how many times have you to read the entire thread ? I have read it three times. The results of phil_trade are obtained with a very specif language and broker. He recognizes his results are broker and language dependant. Perhaps it is better that phil_trade makes the conversion to mql4 or provides his source code in Windev.

Hi José

He recognizes his results are broker and language dependant ??? Where did you read this ? that's not true !

this is a daily trades strategy, so broker data feed could modify a little the entry/exit point, but only a little. I'm running GP, Cowboy IBFX and Excel Market accounts, with quite same trades.

language dependant -> no, I don't think so. Has someone compared my trades and Empty4 trades ? It's the only good way to know But few people here try to put a lot of work and only cry if there is no +100% returns in 10 days ! Marylin is good, but could be better if a group of traders/coders works on it !

the main points are :
1 - parameters : more or less aggressive
2 - patience, patience AND patience
3 - DO NOT MANUALLY INTERVENE... if you don't know very well how Marylin works

Have a look to my forextester 4 years backtest, you will see some long period of drawdown, like now since 15 July. But don't forget, it's a DAILY strategy and one trend will give you success after a lot of little losses. And drawdown could be about 20%... so trade 0.01 lots for minimum 1000 $.

cheers
