It has been waaaay too long since my last update! So here is something new: MAE and Stop analysis!
I still need a bit of help (in the fom of ideas) on how to calculate the ideal/simulatd stop return mot accurately.
There are other things where I have changed a bit here and there...e.g on Overview tab stats can now be displayed for each method as well as for each instrument...
If you find bugs and glitches (I'm sure there are plenty), please report so I can fix them. If you have any ideas, I will happily try to put them into the journal!!
Yes I am aware of this, simply couldn't be bothered as it only happens when there is no data to calculate the stats from (so I classified it as cosmetics....), if you are willing to put the time in to change that, great!
Have you had a look at the MAE calc? Does it make any sense?
1. corrected Internal Calcs!AP13 as @samurai pointed out, thanks again!
2. added a grading system for entry and exit
for exits there is only a single grade even if there are several exits
3. corrected some problems with name definitions and chart ranges
4. bits and bobs here and there
I still need help with the MAE and Stop calculations, esp. regarding the hypothetical profit with different stops....tricky as the other stop would probably also influence the entries and what to do with the trades that would have hit the hypothetical stop? All full stop losers? It's getting a bit philosophical here.
So....is anyone actually interested in this template? Or even using it?
I'd be happy to further develop this journal, but I don't want to spam the forum with updates noone ever needs....
Also I don't mind doing the excel stuff, but I can't always guess what functionalities you would like to add , so some input would be nice!
