Dear members of this amazing forum.

This is continuation of my previous post where I posted a US500 M5 strategy. I was able to work on different instruments and believe best way to share results and my studies are now on this Global Indexes post.


I was able to consolidate the following basic strategy:

  • Buy only, no indicator (can use a MA as optional)
  • H1, if you would like more emotion you can go to other timeframes
  • TP between 0.50% - 0.80% of instrument value
    • In my view the current TPs will work as the instruments value are between pre pandemic crash and not much higher than historical high
  • Martingale around same value of TP (lower values generates more aggressive strategies)
    • Generally speaking, the more aggressive is the martingale (step and multiplier) the higher is the dd but floating isn’t keep for longer periods, the opposite if the martingale is less aggressive (lower dd but floating may take longer periods until take profit)
  • Partial close (use all positive orders to close orders from top)
    • Keep open martingale to closing orders from top
  • Use of a moving average to filter martingale and partial close
  • Variations are applied to diversify the strategy (conservative, moderate or aggressive)
  • Diversification of capital is also provided by whether considering or not the dd from feb-mar 2020, related to covid-19, on the capital allocation.

Current running live with the following instruments on Exness broker, in 4 different accounts:

  • Fr40
  • Us500
  • UsTec
  • Stoxx50
  • Bra50 (ActivTrades)

Set files side-by-side comparison and BT results (xls) are attached on the excel file, together with my current capital allocation for each of the strategies.

Hello

Thank you for sharing

Why you still using cp v2.42?

v2.43 and 2.44 have important fixes

Thanks for noting this. My live accounts are running with 2.44. The BTs were made on 2.42 on my local machine.

or do you know broker with cent account for using this strategy?

Exness has this instruments for MT4, where you can run cents. However the spread for cents are not as good as the Standard or Pro accounts. You can start with the Fr40,  or the UsTec v7 set which are really low capital demanding.

Hi,

I have some, but at the moment, nothing that I am comfortable sharing or running live.
The DE40 has a pip value compared to Nasdaq, however it is less effective on pullbacks to clear orders using partial closing.

Hey, Tarso, very well done! I'm brazilian as well. At same time I've been studying and testing for a profitable setup on Bra50. I saw your powerpoint presentation and I'm thinking about to share with all the 2 best setups I've got. Both using martingale, one of them running on M5 timeframe and the other on M1.

Hi Elmar.
Thanks for sharing. As feedback provided on private, your set file is similar to the default EURUSD set. Try to reduce distance of pending order to get more trades. Anyway, congrats, your strategy is profitable.
I will stop running the Bra50 after the current trade is finished, swap costs from ActivTrades is too high to hold long time positions as the strategy requires, at the moment, as it is based on the Brazilian interest rates (SELIC), now at 11.75% annual.
