Any noobs here unfamiliar with my reaction to having my code questioned only to find that the poster is a dimwit who failed to rtfm and any of my posts telling people to check the default inputs because they might not be what they want?

Do say, and I will cheerfully make you familiar.

Think twice before questioning my code guys. Then think a third time, shudder, and find something else to occupy your time.

:xm:
Read the effing manual, ok?

Afterprime is the official SHF broker. Read about them at https://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?p=175790#p175790.

I still suffer from OCCD. Good thing, really.

Anyone here feeling generous? My paypal account is always in the market for a tiny donation. pianodoodler@hotmail.com is the account.

My special thanks to Thomas (tomele) for all the incredible work he does here.

In last two days on my H4 demo I have been studying Rad trades/pending entries and multi-order set up. Overall hundreds of profit pips have been showing up with the likes of GBPJPY and others. Profit making is not the issue, it will nail anything that is moving. BUT I am interested in MM and the loosers. In the last two days I have had two loosers to look at coming from reversals with AUDNZD and NZDUSD. Their net losses per pair were - 57 and -61 pips. This is with no MM other than close trades on reverse signals set to true. In other words letting HGB have her head with HGI signals. The best position these two trades got to were +94 pips and + 86 pips respectfully, for the pair baskets as it were. So yes some pips were left on the table, but we stayed in the market until 'hope was lost' for this trade withe HGI counter signal appearing. What is the value of staying in the market, well hard to quantify but for some of the other pairs staying in there was very profitable as retraces are part of the game. Overall in the 1000 or so pips of profit these two losses are not very scary really.

Is this a case of keep it simple stupid. I have been racking my brain looking at all the traditional BE and JS options etc and I am not sure I can improve on what HGB does with just the HGI signals. I am sure I am capable of screwing up good trades with MM ideas imposed on these trades.

So would love to hear some informed discussion on this as I see the RAD trades and letting HGB stay in the market and do her thing as the key to running this with my money at stake.

I have been testing the versions with the types i.e. Rad, Trend. So far RAD is winning hands down in all HGB versions. I will list my Xcel sheet that clearly shows RAD Multi with its Pending is a clear winner.

Can we segregate the RAD from the RADMulti? Yes we leave money on the table but the DD is very low and the number of open trades is much smaller.

The file contains both v2a & v2g. The v2g is outstanding!
I will keep it running till Friday and let you know the results.

PS: Just lost 2 more on a RAD not multi, pips -33.

Red trades are where I closed the position to lock in the final 300 pips.

Hello Steve!

Your test and the Feucht test are the same parameters?
Your test is very good, and the Feucht not.
