Lets get this started... I'll try to keep things short and sweet for easier readability.
First off when I coded this last night I was surprised by its profitability. I won't give the exact entry/exit details away, I can't afford to. But if we do find certain details helpful I do hope to contribute back to the forum at some point, probably organized in a separate thread or wiki. I will say the entry/exit rules/indicators are incredibly simple. Literally its only two conditions for entry and one for exit using one indicator from a method described on the forum that uses several indicators. This trading method I'm speaking of is not widely used, but it speaks to me. After grinding away at this method I picked out one strategy and viola! :sarcastic:
There are several "checks and balance" items that probably should be coded. For now I want to focus on backtesting the basic strategy.
The purpose of this thread is to get feedback and hopefully you guys can poke some holes. I'm open to any constructive criticism or suggestions regarding this strategy and this thread. I had trouble just thinking of what to title it. :)
Rather than me posting an initial screenshot to illustrate the profitability. I would love to hear from someone more experienced in backtesting who could suggest some settings. Afterwards I can provide a screenshot of the results.
