Secret Bob. Sometimes trendy, sometimes not.

Nice one bazze.

I have shut down for the week - well day really given how old SB is. Did I really only code and post this yesterday? It feels like a lifetime ago.

Positive pips before closing the outstanding trades; 822. Remaining after closing them; 730.

In one day.

Let's try not to get too excited guys. Let's see where we are this time next week. Be conservative and do not expect a repetition of today.

Mind, if we do get repetitions of today, then

Reminder: By default, SB takes a snapshot when he opens and closes a trade. Don't forget to empty your Files/Open data folder/MQL4/Files folder frequently, or you will run out of hard drive space.

Very exciting Steve. If the performance continues and you have enough energy to add the close all trades at x time on a Friday that would be the icing on the Cake. But if we can have a good positive week next week that would be awesome :0

Nice bazze!
Is the CT indi loaded on, or are you taking trend trades only?

Both indi's are active...

[currymonster]

Oh and 421 pips (net of negative pips) in 9 hours and 42 minutes - after 12 pm on a Friday, not usually the most vigorously traded time of the week, holy moly. You poured a whole bottle of sherry into the mix when you made this particular Xmas cake Steve

Read post one properly and refrain from asking questions that show that you have not done so.

Thanks, makes sence.
Can one say then 7%x1.6=11.2% in USD?

Well you could certainly say that at 0.01 per $1000 USD it would have made that return. Crazy.

I left my open orders running on purpose, just to see what would happen over the weekend.

To be honest, I think we just scratched the surface of Secret Bob (SB).
Fractal Bob (FB) opened 2 sells on the GBPNZD last thursday, which causes a loss of over 6% when crossing the 240MA. SB indi tells there would have been 2 buys there, probably gaining 6% or more. This is just 1 example on 1 pair, and I see several more.
Bob made a comment about the GBPCAD doing a huge range at the moment. Look at the chart, SB takes most of these moves. It's impossible to tell where on the bar the signal popped, but seeing the averige win/ loss I'm confident enough.

I just found out Empty4 stopped, and after restarting it put SB#1 on the charts, so some homework to do before sundayevening open.....

Have a good weekend y'all !

I apologize for the avalanche of posts.....

Had an hour to kill and ran all 26 pairs through the meta-tester (I know...) with last week's data with an averige spread of 5 pips.
In totall I got an growth of 66% with all positions closed on friday.....
Pair profit ranged from -/-2.5% to +/+10.4%. The biggest loser was because friday-closure, it was positive before.

Can't wait for markets to open, who invented no-trading weekends?
