Here is an automatic trading strategy based on the Mobile Averages.

This code is very simple because I started in this discipline! 🙂

I need your help to optimize the code. I would like to filter out false signals in order to have more winning positions and reduce drawdown.

Thank you in advance for your help.

    what do 0.998 and 1.002 factors represents?

  5. Matriciel • 09/27/2016 #

    These are the moving averages offset on the vertical axis.

  6. Fabio Anthony Terrenzio • 09/27/2016 #

    It’s incredible, this little offset make big difference! dunno why..

    Amusante cette petite strat : elle est positive sur 200000 ut mais tu obtiens un DD de 78% du benefice et un profit factor de 1,10.
    cordialement.

    Hi Matriciel,

    • Matriciel • 09/27/2016 #

      Hi Chaostrader82,
      You can play with the value of the trailing stop.This one works well : SET TARGET pPROFIT 300

  9. Matriciel • 09/27/2016 #

    Je voulais dire : “take profit” et non “trailing stop”… 🙂

  10. Matriciel • 09/27/2016 #

    I wanted to say “take profit” and not “trailing stop” … 🙂

    hi marticiel , can you email me at xxxx ? i want to work with you on the development of the codes 

    • Nicolas • 09/27/2016 #

      Please dont put your email address publicly on the website. If you want to make a dev team for improvements of this strategy, I suggest you to make a new thread on the forums where everyone in interest should help. It makes senses since everything here is completely free and share the same sharing spirit. Thanks.

    Dear Matriciel , you should try removing these 1.0998 , 0.0998 , these functions actually draws down your profits .I made it more cleaner but it is for scalping only. i only tested on some of the pairs so far. maybe you want to have a further look at it. This is only for a trending market that has a definate trend, if its a sideway market dont use this because the MAs will trigger and you will get whipped sawed.
    // Conditions pour ouvrir une position acheteuse setting (1000units 15mins chart )indicator1 = closeindicator2 = Average[5](close)c1 = (indicator1 CROSSES OVER indicator2)
    IF c1 THENBUY 3 CONTRACT AT MARKETENDIF
    // Conditions pour fermer une position acheteuseindicator3 = closeindicator4 = Average[7](close)c2 = (indicator3 CROSSES OVER indicator4)
    IF c2 THENBUY 3 CONTRACT AT MARKETENDIF
    // Conditions pour ouvrir une position acheteuseindicator5 = closeindicator6 = Average[60](close)c3 = (indicator5 CROSSES OVER indicator6)
    IF c3 THENSELL AT MARKETENDIF

    Dear Matriciel , can you add in the following ? stoploss=30pips , take profit= 4pips <=== after you are done pls paste it back here. Thanks 

  14. chaostrader82 • 09/27/2016 #

    Theres some bugs still with this program , can somebody help to improve on the following?
    Improvements needed 

    BUY if current close is higher than previous close 
    No stoploss or take profit settings 

    Notes : Strategy only works in a upward trending market, heavy losses in a downward or whipped saw trend

    Hi Chaostrader82,You know, I’m starting in automatic strategy coding so I’m not going to be able to help you a lot.
