* MaxPosPerSide (can open multiple positions)
* HedgeLoser (make net position LotSize)
* LogDebug (rudimentary debug logging)

Do yourself a favour. Contemplate the distance between Rene first posting and now. Contemplate the the distance between the previous post to yours. Then ask yourself, "Is there a reason for these time lapses?"

Rene is a coding genius but he cannot convert a crap original trading system into something profitable.

MADDY1.8 is a superstar. I'm sure there's a system she'll be good for.

Maddy is awesome versatile trading tool :rocket:

thanks to Rene for developing such a great indicator with EA

I've been reading the thread thoroughly and backtesting different settings. Mostly the settings are explained in the thread and there is a lot of backtesting done by Wavegarrick thanks to him and 919gilead for the idea.
Smaller timeframes create a lot of gains but also give back those gains and there is a simple workaround that by using trademanager like MPTM or APTM both are great.

MADTrader has almost all the settings like SL TP and Basket exit conditions but sometimes the StopLoss is big due to lot size. I've reduced "Lotsize per 100 PIPs ATR" and tried different value.

Suggestion: (Risk Per Trade in Amount)
Please if Mr. Rene has the time to add "Risk Per Trade in $Amount" in MADTrader settings it would be wonderful.


Thanks again for this wonderful tool. :cheer:

I want to ask whether anyone here is still using the MADTrader1.1 expert advisor or the MADDY series of indicators on current Empty4 builds. Both files load and initialize without errors, but the expert advisor does not execute any trades even after full initialization. The logs show normal status messages, yet no orders are triggered.

Before assuming that the configuration is outdated, I want to confirm whether there are traders who still use this system and can confirm that it works as expected on the latest Empty4 versions. Any recent experience, performance notes, or compatibility information would be helpful.

Thank you for any insight.
