I just realized that I made a terrible mistake with the setfile that I posted here. How I managed this I do not know.

The Peaky timeframe must be 1 Hour not 5 minutes :arrrg:

Many apologies.

Cheers
Leon

Hi Guys,

Here's the thing. Oops drawdown :arrrg: . I know, something we do not want. Well, we can wait it out, Provided we don't have too many currency pairs on the table. Yes, I know we had BOE and NFP and it also shows how quick trades can go against us.

I am currently working on something which will be absolutely strict, quick in and out and few trades but if we have these open on a multi pair dash, we'll have our fair share of trades for the week. I have always dreamt of something with which I can increase the stakes. Pips do not matter but money does. Afterall the purpose of an Ea is to leave it unattended without manual intervention.

Stay tuned.

Have a nice weekend
Cheers
Leon

Hello, I'm sharing my test which has run a little over one month and has reached 100% profit in equity terms. Nothing fancy in setfile, it's running on V1f on M5 charts with 15 pips between trades. Emergency SL 200 pips. No dashboard or other bells and whistles.

CP 5min 15 pips.set
After developing a considerable floating loss pretty quickly it has been kind of stable since then, but the floating loss stays constantly around 500€. It runs fully automatic, no manual intervention.
I will let it run and see what happens in the future.

Here is my results from last week. I stuffed up the trading times so trading finished about 1 1/3 days early. I'm trying to find what pairs are best so set it up on 28 pairs on 1m charts. Broker is Global Prime and trading was 24 hours a day. Set file is a modded version of Leon's (Wavegarrick).

Below is the results broken down by hours and sessions. 2nd chart is how each currency went. At the moment the 4 hour overlap of London and New York looks a sure bet, but we'll see. Results are after all opened trades were closed.
