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

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.

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!! :)

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?

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

Hey Andrey and John,

thanks for your reply. I will test it out, maybe tickstorylite will help.

I will also check out that live account.

"every real tick" was enabled.

Again,many thanks!

Hey John, 

I am still testing. What settings did you use for your backtest? 
Can you please upload that .ini file? 

Would be awesome :)

Thanks

Hi al

It was done so long Ago that I can’t find the ini file but looking at the graph and back test summary it was as below:

$10,000.00 start

1/1/19 to 15/6/20 period

The leverage I always use is 1:500

Every real tick

No latency 

Thanks
