Suggestions for the EA to perform better in this kind of strategy that I cannot find where to configure.

-- After a Gain comes a Loss - if theres a gain filter so it does not trade that day / week / or for the next X days after making its goal of $X (market is cyclical so the gain wont happen so often).

-- Some days of the week are better than others.

-- For running optmization / backtesting its a good idea to ignore march/2020 (crash period for the CFD`s all over the world) so a parameter would be nice.

I also like to compare my overnight strategies to buy and hold. In this case you would have lost 17% (looking at the IS period or -3% in all period).

Instead that you risk $7 (maximum drawdown in 3 years) to make $118 with 0.1 Lot, an expected profit of %5000 (thats how I measure an strategy).

Thanks for your set!

I don't have so good results with IC:

I set GMT shift = +3 so all deals are opened exactly before rollover:

Is it correct?

Try to use "all real ticks" for your test, please.

Hi, Andrey, 

you are correct abount the gmt+3.


There is difference in tickets so it. Still have no idea with one would be closer to the real world. I will be running this set on real/demo account on both IC and ActivTrades so I will compare the backtests with the operations.

Great!

Always use "all real ticks" if not sure what to use. It is method with highest precision possible.
