Post subject:  Double Bollinger Band

Mathias:

I have been using the DBB for sometimes with some good results. From the name double requires 2 indicator with 2 different deviation: 2 and the other 1. The band could be a nice filter to the CSS. Thank you for all your efforts.

Hi!
First, I don't think you should change the subject of the thread so I changed it back again. :)

Is the BB implementation that I already have good enough?
I can add a second BB so that you can configure two.
Would that be enough?

Mathias,

Thank you. Please ignore this post. I guessed the existing one you have is good enough.

just want to share my results... have to switch, try another strategy... this ones are not working on live account for me.

After some really successfull testings during the last 2 (testing over 30 different strategies over the time on 3 Servers!) month i've decided to go live with TJFs H1-H4 Combination, and the reduced Pairs Version of M5-H1-D1.

The last 2 Days i've got massive SL hits, so it seems that there is a lot of open work detect / prevent moves against stronge resistances... yesterday for example some of the aud pairs running aigainst strong resistance lines and revert movement... black friday and closing during huge gaps on sunday opening not completly analysed yet... so - stopping live experiment analyse the results and back to zero-line and testing demo...
Till now i've not found any Scenario wich resist for more than 2 Month and Winnings > Losses an DD<20%...

So i'll see... seems that there is a lot of open work...

Hi!
I can only agree that this is along term assignment.
And it will need our joint forces to make some smooth settings. :)
I have some different setfiles running and hope to present my findings hee when I have the time :)

It seems you decided to continue trading non-stop on Thursday and Friday...and leave the trades open over the weekend. That was pretty much the same as playing roulette.

Because of Thanksgiving, everyone in US (and UK more and more) rushes home early on Thursday and stuff themselves until Monday....it is basically a 4 day weekend. So there's hardly any liquidity - which can cause erratic and strong moves, and will throw off pretty much any EA.
You probably also received emails from brokers stating to be careful during this period?

So long story short: I would not draw any conclusions from your recent losses.

I agree with your comments. This time of the financial season most traders don't trade. They wait until normal volatility comes back into the market in the New Year.

TIA,
Lionsden

okay, thats a point i cant ignore - your right... describes not the SL Hits today, but right - that ones from friday to sunday. Trading stop on Friday is set to 13:00 but no hard closure - thats right... But in Case of using this - this has to be tested in summary also... if i close the trades every week on friday - so it would be interesting if the summary for the week is already positive if i close all open trades on friday... ;)

@lionsden: youre also right - but its hard to ignore more than one month in yearly trading... if you think this furthter ist better to ignore the first halb of january also... mostly the market needs some time to find a new year trend direction...

I will add a Weekly Close function later as well in case you want it. Just to be sure not to leave anything on the table over the weekend.
