Re: Megadroid Pro

 

Today trading results were not so good. -38pips but even so I'm 57,10 pips up in last week. I'm seeing USD/Cad in not doing so well as in backtest but 2 weeks of testing is not enought to make any judgement.

Re: Megadroid Pro

 

There is only ee2x link in the thread somewhere earlier. It can be used like as if were ee2 if you don't start another instances.

 

Edit: Thanks, E... ;)

 

 

 

 

thanks Don,

 

one question , is it also possible add a manual stoploss level setting..?

Re: Megadroid Pro

 

I'm using the ee2 on 6 pairs live without any crashes. I made new instances for every pair, for the supported pairs too, because I think the crashes are related to the nodes management function. When the ea runs only with one node there isn't any crashes for me.

Hi,

 

I used the MDP for only backtests, just 1 instance, it is crashed mt4. I have 2 GB ram.

It won't trade on Sunday morning. This is by design.

 

it also wont trade on the 29,30 and 31st of each month if i remember correctly. so it mightnt trade later this week as well.

Re: Megadroid Pro

 

Initial testing of EURCHF seems very promising. Once again, a backtest at GMT+1 performs A LOT better than GMT+2. This is true for EURUSD as well most years...I had a big issue with this after backtesting MD when it came out, set up my charts with one instance on GMT+1 and one on GMT+2 and then hit 2 stops on the overlapping time and went back to default.

 

I know that its not quantitative because of the DST change, but I remember someone on the old thread saying they had used a program so they could get GMT times to work perfectly on backtests ie changing for DST but STILL fixed GMT+1 worked better.

 

No-one ever has any comments about this...no-one else has noticed this?

forexample,

 

Have you ever backtested yourself or just heard from somebody?

 

What I heard is that for EURUSD, DST should be changed accordingly. For other pairs, fixed GMT+1 (Alpari UK) works better. Please confirm.

mike99,

 

So, you are suggesting using AUTOGMTOFFSET = false and put the GMT value ourselves?

i'm using ALpari UK, but i set the autogmtoffset = true.

 

confusing :-?? anyone can confirm this?

Re: Megadroid Pro

 

Anyone know how does the new MM and Risk settings work when having more than 1 instance sharing the same dll? eg node 1: EURUSD, node 2: EURCHF, node 3: EURGBP, and node 4: USDCHF

 

Previously MegaDroid 1.11 has a default 0.1 risk setting for only 1 pair, EURUSD... now if I run it on 4 pairs, with the same 0.1 risk setting, does it mean 0.1 / 4, which is 0.25 risk for each pair? (which is then equal to manually setting 0.25 on the old MegaDroid 1.11?)

Re: Megadroid Pro

 

Why Megadroid Pro always opens 2 positions?

In Megadroid 1.1 I always had 1 open position in one currency pair. Now it always opens 2 positions even when I turned off Recovery and turned off Aggressive.

Someone knows the answer?

 

Thanks

Re: Megadroid Pro

 

raikon,

 

I think many people here are not clear with the GMT offset. The problem are also caused by backtesting. Because when we backtest an ea, we use a fixed GMT offset for the whole year. And when the ea developer optimize an ea, he will use one fixed GMT offset for whole year too.

 

What I am planning to do later is try GMT+1 and GMT+2 (Alpari UK) myself, and see what's the difference. I think some people here did this work already. Can somebody share?

Re: Megadroid Pro

 

Try backtesting Megadroid on GMT+6 (adjust to suit your broker) on EURUSD with recovery and agressive true

 

Hopefully if your broker has nice spreads you will be pleasantly surpised with the results and number of trades. I am with GoMarkets (GMT +2)

 

I have backtested since April 2nd as before that I would need to adjust GMT time to suit daylight savings

Yes every year for most pairs though I've recently started with MD Pro (all at Alpari UK). I actually tested 0-23 for EURUSD and +7 came out 2nd overall, GMT+1 1st and GMT+2nd third. I ran GMT+7 for awhile live but hit a couple of stops then went travelling so stripped it down and went back to default. Default works good but everytime I backtest GMT+1 performs better (for most years not all but overall much better) so I always come back to this.

 

The theory that the developers optimise using a fixed GMT is interesting but not confirmed.

 

Somewhere in the old thread a guy solved the issue with software so that he could test with the exact GMT time but the GMT+1 results were better.

 

I will post my results in a table when I finish...but this is using Metaquotes data so not exact...no-one has offered up decent data yet. At least its good for comparing.
