Holy Graily Bob 'n Grid

[woodlands]

Hi Woodlands. Which version are you running for the first demo?

Version 1q

[TraderJoeForex]

As above post but HGB 'n Grid on H4 on micro account, only running for couple of days
AU,EA,EG,EJ,EU,GA,GC,GJ,GU,UC,UJ (UC and AU added near W/E)

Here are the results and setfile (for a micro account that trades $1,000 lots at real amount rather than cent account maked as $, so unusual configuration and very confusing for trade managers )





Results for a Demo running HGB_experimental for the week without filters



And the setfile:


Again :hi: to Steve, Bob et al

Hey Woodlands... Just had a look at these and HGBexp_nofilter.set file has STOP and LIMIT orders selected.. I am assuming this is meant to be just STOP orders?

[woodlands]

Hmm,
It's the same as the other experimental Joe but without any direction filter so stop and limit with the 'RnR' offset add on.
The one above is stop orders as standard HGB 'n grid....if I have it right, certainly the setfile was copied direct from the Empty4 datafile.

Sorry yes.. I was getting ahead of myself. Just re read Steve's post:

"It is possible to apply this idea to hedged positions but the code will be much more complicated. Let's establish that the function works properly first, then apply it to the Stop_Orders_Only method later on"

Cheers.

I noticed today when the EA was closing out a hedged EURJPY position i'd been stuck in for over a week using HedgeProfitPips that it's not allowing for (OrderProfit() + OrderSwap() + OrderCommission()) calculated in CashUpl so i added CashUpl >= MinimumHedgeCash to HedgeProfitPips...to make sure we're not closing out the position at a loss..

Code: Select all

extern int     MinimumHedgeProfitCash = 5;

Code: Select all

//Have we hit pips upl
      if (HedgeProfitPips > 0)
         if (PipsUpl >= HedgeProfitPips && CashUpl >= MinimumHedgeProfitCash)
            ClosePosition = true;

This is one week running the Experimental version. I started with a $600 demo .01 lots on 10 pairs.

This morning 4 pairs had open trades and were all in profit. I remembered what Steve said about closing down when in profit and also it was right before NY open. GC then opened a new grid with the Blue Wavy on the new 4hr candle.

Well Played

The latest versions of both bots (1q) are in post 1.

You can make the changes easily for yourselves. Do a search for this comment: //Lowest trade price and reverse the conditional in the following line. For example:
if(OrderOpenPrice()>LowestBuyPrice)

becomes

if(OrderOpenPrice()<LowestBuyPrice)

I have not checked yet, but I bet you a fiver these changes need making to all my shell codes as well. They are an example of my famous copy\paste\fail-to-edit bloops.

ntjs just sent me a pm saying that it was still 1p original in post 1. I have uploaded the correct version. Check your charts and re-download if the version display shows 1p instead of 1q.

Thanks for the update..

Just a quick thought - Not sure this is possible with the current logic but the other day whilst waiting for my
EURJPY position that was hedged to exit I was thinking if the Wavestatus flips from Buy to Sell in this instance
the Hedged basket wouldn't then close until either the opposite Semaphore or Wavestatus == Waverange?

If the pair had stayed open it and followed the massive retracement it would of made a considerable profit rather than just a small one
