Hi Wally I am running ADX set without timeframe now.

So you are not running ADX at all? I'm confused as it has to have a timeframe, either chart or a set timeframe which affects the readings you get depending on the timeframe... I notice the set has ADX on and set to chart timeframe.

That is the 'current' value i.e. the chart TF.

weekly report 03 02up 03up 04up 05down 06 - 06 - 2025

02up Monday, v1e was doing great, but 1f had a huge drawdown. The conclusion made on Monday was the setting of ADX I set is around a bumpy line on Monday, making goldy trapped a bit into the sideway market when ADX index go above my setting then fall with more open trades. I will try to write a signal sending code to add in goldy, which can send me signals when ADX is below the desired level. In which way we might avoid this toilet leak situation.

03up Tuesday, another great day for v1e, constantly hittng the target and everything was cleaned up tidily when its trading time come to end. 1f was in a similar situation as Monday, as the market was a bit sticky on Tuesday. A 200-ish potential loss was occurred around US market opening, in the end solved with a major rise in market at 1715 and goldy was removed from demo thanks to RemoveAfterTP function.

04up Thursday, both up today. ADX was doing great for general pacific market, but had almost a dozen trades opened around 1000, although caught in a sideway condition, the loss was very minimum, around 3-5GBP (floating rapidly) so I instantly wipe all open trades. including the loss, over all equity gain was almost 5, goldy was set to rest for the rest of the day.
1e was doing great at pacific time market, but also caught in a sideway market after London opened market. I set a RemoveExpertAfterTP and it was removed after hitting a target. Around 7% up for 1e today.

05 06 There was a loss in the pacific market on 05 for v1e, and ADX was not trading at the same market due to market sideways, which triggers me to shut both down after London market on 5th of June and no operations were taken on 6th due to NFP release.

A really good week for me last week. Early days I know, but ice's use of ADX made a huge difference.

ice has also coded an additional enhancement to ADX. We shall release this tomorrow.

V 1h is in post 1, in response to a request by orso to add ATR to the grid calculation. Those of you familiar with the SPB family know how this works.

Detail in the June 15th edit.

weekly report 04 09 10 11 12 13 - 06 - 2025
09 Monday, great start, nothing strange, I have activated the peak notification of goldy, which did save the demo from loading more before a trend weakens.

10 Tuesday, something big happened. Both account get blown up severly, but very hardly landed above 1000GBP. I guess This means I acan still proceed on testing on this account, but the strategy need to be re-examined for risk management. Maybe from indicating the DI- level? or just set a drawndown limit.

I did not trade from Tuesday as I had a very busy week. Over the weekend I have add a few lines of code to implement a drawdown limit. the limit has been set to 90% of start of the day equity, I will test this a bit and decide if this should be pass on and ask Steve to include. Now I will test it with the two demo accounts for a week and see the result. Maybe some other risk management method can help.

Wish all a good week ahead.

Best,
ice
