XAUUSD ZZ Breakout MACD Filter (no martingale)

Avatar
  • updated

hello together

I would like to present you my CP Gold set.

It is based on a 15 minute zigzag breakout strategy with 2 MACD filters and trailing stop.

Stoploss is set to 15% per 0.1 lot. for 0.2 lots accordingly 30%.

DD should be basically maximum the 30% respectively 60% (2 stoploss in a row). The set has a super recovery after a loss.

Once the ADX indicator is in place, I should bring the DD even further down...

I recommend a minimum of 1000k to start. but probably also works with 100 dollars :P

The Set is backtestes since 01.2017

Inital 4000 (0.1 Lots /1000)

result:

hi. Be carefull with the "start trailing after". it could be that you run more into the stoploss.. but yes, it should work also... thanks

Once the ADX indicator is in place, I should bring the DD even further down...

Hello,

i had optimated the V4.set.

What do you think about it?

Yes, the tickquality is very bad, but i get no better with ICM.

Greetings Michael

The profit margin in your setup is too short. 

So I used [Use closed bars only] to extend the profit period a bit.


However, the profit is still too small.


Is there a way to get as much profit as the red box as shown in the picture above?
Please give me some advice.

what you want is another strategy. feel free to develop it ;)

I'm curious about your backtest conditions. 

I tested it with slippage 255, real ticks. 

The results were very bad.

Hello,

i have the V4.set already two weeks in a small live Account.

Till now it works similar like the two weeks backtest. 

I'm looking forward for the next two weeks!

greetings

I am also running v4 setfile on a small Roboforex ECN account, so far my results are also similiar to backtests. Very nice set! 🙂

I backtested the Set with the 100 points. It also working but its a other entry Point.. I don't think its better.. I see higher DD an lower profit in 2021 with 100 Points distance to the Breakout..

alright, thats odd, my backtest showed 100 points yielded better results. especially for 2022. will test further back.
