Fast In Fast Out Strategy

I am also adding my suggestion for the most volatile trading hours. You can test the strategy by downloading EA "Fast In Fast Out Strategy" - Faeze Bakhshayesh Expert for MetaTrader 4 (https://www.mql5.com/en/code/27391) .The problem that is present here are rapid changes buystop sellstop pending orders. Some brokers do not allow this. I wonder if this can be solved with virtual pending orders and only send a buy or sell signal. The strategy only works with high volatility and using trailing stops but not too tight >5 points. With low volatility, this trading strategy is a waste of money. It works best on GBPUSD and other volatile pairs.

Duplicates 1
Open signal: buy if Ask >= bar open + X points / sell if Bid <= bar open - X points

Used in i_solaris strategy and in Paolo strategy.

    I am currently running this strategy on a demo account and it looks very interesting. I will present the results in a month or so. At the moment, I don’t want to upset anyone with unverified and untested CP settings.

    Drago, why not to check it in tester?

    Please, share your set.

    Hi drago

    I read somewhere that you had issues running larger optimisations due to ram size , I’m happy to help out and run a full optimisation if you like?

    Just let me know which input parameters and steps you want to optimise,

    I use the mql5 could network and it drastically cuts down the time it takes to complete without any of the RAM issues.

    And I’m sure no one will get up set with any unverified set files you put up👍

    would be great to have a set file for this strategy. I wasn't be able to really use it, although tried a lot...

    Yep, we should ask authors of ideas to share at least one set using their functions ;)

    This strategy still bothers me a lot and I have not been able to make any very promising progress so far. My idea was to trade the Big candle and Anti-Martingale combination during high volatility. I still have a basic problem of how to recognize the right moment (maybe with an important news filter).

    I also work on a gold trading set. Maybe someone with a powerful computer could optimize the included set. Big candle + Martingale + Trilling stop. MT5_GOLD.set
