    Hi John, thank you very much for this strategy. Works quite well. Have you also considered using other variations for the SL and the TP?

    • JohnScher • 05/23/2022 #

      No, I haven’t.
      You could certainly optimize for SL and TP, operate with trailingsstops and re-invest strategies, include momentum, volume, ATR and who knows what else, but that was not my point.
      I was more interested in showing that one could have made money with simple means, e.g. short above EMA50 in the 4H in the past years.
      Whether this will be the case in the future? No idea. In demo mode, the strategy has been running for 2 years in profit, despite all the current confusion.

    je viens de Backtester cette strategie depuis avril 2021 , celle ci fonctionne très bien à partir de 10k capital. si le capital est inferieur (3k pour le backtest) celle ci fonctionne bien avec un SL fixé sur 0.8 et un TP fixé sur 2.3.
    Il ne s’agit que d’un backtest…

    Postscript:

    It’s running in the live right now. One position after the other is opened. So it was being programmed.
    So let’s look again in 1 year, how it looks….
