Lescor,
You mentioned earlier in this thread that you currently trade about 6 different strategies. Do you mean it's 3 long and 3 short or 6 strategies tat go long or short.
Thanks
I seem to have a problem with constant backtesting and improving my results. It never ends as there are 1000s of ways to adjust buying and seling critirea. When do you guys stop testing and start trading system in real time?
Thanks
I never used API for IB. Need help placing this order:
buy at market when 10 and 20 ma cross on 5 min chart
set stop at previous bar low and set target at 10 and 20 ma cross.
How can I write this order in Excel for IB? Does API updates prices in real time?
Thank you in advance
My system generated about 3000 trades over last 6 months with good results. In real time I won't be able to trade this often and will be forced pick and choose. Is it fair to say that I will be trading with similar ratios as my system shows or because I'll be trading less my results could be...
Lescor,
You've been trading for a while now. Looking back, do you trade the same strategies you traded 5-7 years ago ( at least one or two) or is your trading now days completely different than it was 5-7 years ago?
Thank you,
Can I send order like this to IB through API or do I need manually eneter is if I want to exit at 20 SMA? I don't use API right now and enter orders manually but it gets tough when things are busy.
