Hi gary, Have you traded this system in ranging markets ? This kinda system looks prone to issues in ranging markets. Cheers |

Thanks for your question. A price breakout is confirmed by Williams % Range breaching either the -20 or -80 line, and OsMA crossing the zero line. Hence, most false signals associated with ranging prices are filtered out. Cheers, Gary |

Hi Gary, Thanks for the reply. As a note, why not use a small live account ? It would be rather painful if a few months later ...the results are good and people are saying "It is just good on demo". That would be a few months worth of time down the drain. Cheers |

I understand your point, but at the end of the day it's just a simple manual strategy. Cheers, Gary |

Just to let you guys know, I have started the coding. I probably will not finish today as I have a busy afternoon, but tomorrow for sure. |

Hi Gary, Precisely since it is a manual strategy, it is good to go for a real money account as the psychology of the trader becomes a factor. A demo account can be considered "play" money and we wont know if the performance is the same once real money is at stake. It would also be more rewarding for your purposes to use a real account. For your consideration... Cheers |

The penny has finally dropped! That is a good point, SpiderX, and not something I had considered. To be continued... |
