scalpmaster Posted November 20, 2010 Report Posted November 20, 2010 Came across a video that showed good backtest results when buying/selling majors fx pairs after 6 consecutive closed up/down days and exit based on same rule. Can a simple EA be created to verify this? i.e. Enter Long/Short on closed after X consecutive days of daily bar closed higher/Lower Exit after Y consecutive days of daily bar closed lower/higher.
maybe Posted November 22, 2010 Report Posted November 22, 2010 Can you link me to the video? I don't quite understand the system. Is it just you want to buy when the price closes higher everyday for the last 6 days? Wouldn't you be better off waiting until a resistance is hit and trading against the trend? I can't see a system working that enters the trend so late, but I'll make a bot if you specify.
scalpmaster Posted November 22, 2010 Author Report Posted November 22, 2010 This is a longer term trend approach in order to capture bigger trends such as euraud, eurcad that last nearly a quarter so waiting for a few days to a week close higher for trend confirmation is ok. X days, Y days are flexible user inputs so you can test other variables even if the video(somewhere) is not correct..
