    I created a simple formula to set TP/SL

    You could just say use .5% of the price as sl/tp o_O The more important question is why .5%?How about .4%? or 0.1%?

    Artificial Algorithmic Systems Real Trading

    My head hurts just thinking about how you're managing that many systems. How do you actually keep track of performance for each one? You have an equity chart? Like why do you have these long system ID? if if it's 600 systems, would'nt you just write system 1, system 2, ....system 600...

    What’s the point studying six years of Spanish and not being able to speak it?

    Cause they don't learn Spanish like a normal human being learns a language, through practice and immersion in life. Most of them don't go beyond the classroom settings, so they just end up knowing only few words enough to get around.

    I have, but his test period of 6 months on just one market are way too short to draw any significant conclusions. But I think his testing cases were pretty robust. When I back tested my strategy it was from 2020-2022 . I tested it on ES,NQ,YM,RTY. I had many iterations to my rules/settings...

    To your question, yes techcnically what changed was that the market executed the target for the first initial lot (around 100ms) after entry, that it didn't have time to execute the target for the remainder of the lots properly. MOst of the time, the the algo enters the position (full or...

    https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/i-give-up.375995/ I removed the last two trades so that my pnl curve doesn't get distorted. I'm not going to include outlier performance like that since that was technically in error, so I just used what it was supposed to make, which wasn't much. This...

    I GIVE UP

    This is basically the solution i'm going with. Whatever errors the algo is making up to when the PnL alert is sent, i'm closing everything out. IT's funny cause I got that snippet of code cause I asked the dev to add a flat rule before session is over. So I'm transferring that logic over the...

    Index futures automation

    Figured out the sequence of events after reviewing the MT5 trades list and QT's event log. Basically the algo did what its supposed to do in this order. 1. excecuted the entry in partial lots. 2. target order initiated for 1st partial lot. 3. target order filled for 1st partial lot, leaving...

    Mods please close thread. This pest @Drawdown Addict came out of some random anus and started having mood swings. Now I see why @destriero would close out threads cause of these morons

    I GIVE UP

    I think I figured it out. I have reversal cancel called out when target is hit. What I need to do is just have buy.cancel and sell.cancel call out to make sure it gets rid of those phantom orders that get "unlinked" from the sequence for whatever reason, like what happened today. I think this...

    I GIVE UP

    Yes I think I'll try this. Cause today, after the pnl alert, it kept going with an open order. You mad about something? You're like a woman who holds grudges.. DOn't derail this thread bitch, let me do my thing and you figure out how to make a penny

    I GIVE UP

    Or just have cancel all buy/sell call outs since the algo might not recognize "reverse" if it's disconnected from the sequence

    I GIVE UP

    I feel like there should be a reverse cancel call out after I get my PnL notification, jusst to make sure it really did cancel it.
