Adjustment to Martingale settings on EUR-USD Default setting Set file

I have made a small adjustment to the martingale settings to try and smooth out, reduce the DD ,and increase profits.

I left the initial step size but reduced the step coefficient and have added another 1 trade

I have run various back test from 1.1.2019 and all looked good.

Obviously by doing this it can increase the sensitivity and make it riskier but currently it seems to have decreased the DD and increased profit.

Would be great to get some additional input if these changes are too risky or if there is a way to improve on this.

Thanks

Hey guys,

I am totally new to that stuff and super excited. 

Right now I am doing some backtesting with your pinned set file. Unfortunately I get different results with much lower profit and way higher DD.

Can you help and tell me what I am missing here?

Thanks a lot!! :)

Try to use my IC live account with real ticks for test. You can find login and password here - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ww1M97H54IBwtCKZDhxtqsTsrtEMKofXHMEWMGCyZNs/edit#heading=h.wdp8c3ml8ar

Hi al

It looks like you have poor history,

It should be at 99% -100%
also did you use “every real tick” when doing the back test?

Just now I was coming to comment on what you told me via chat.

Indeed that was the cause, everything solved.

Thank you very much for the clarification, Andrey.

Today I tried this amazing set on Strategy Tester and, to my surprise, the results of CP_v2.15 versus CP_v2.16 where totally different.

CP v2.15

CP v2.16

I still have 2.15 in my VPS and updated to 2.16 only on my PC, but now I'm worried about update my live terminals.

- Tested files -


· My settings, based on my broker real conditions: EURUSD_test_settings.ini

· This set file: MT5_EURUSD_M5_DefaultPlusPending A_Martinga....set

· Report 2.15: ReportTester-CP_v2.15.xlsx

· Report 2.16: ReportTester-CP_v2.16.xlsx

You have MA filter enabled in your set.

Drop settings to defaults and then load set-file.

Hi,

Are these changes suggested by Mr. John getting implemented in the next version of EA? 

Or should we try these out on current EA set?

Already works.

Tested with 2.13 beta4, works correctly.

A small difference because of IdentifyTrend fix.
