Fractal breakout intraday Strategy EUR/USD 1H –

  Yes I guess if you think about it logically one candle on a daily time frame gives us a whole 24 hour survey of market sentiment whereas a 1 hour candle is a very small market sample for the same survey. It will tell us 1/24th of what the daily candle can tell us. With a better survey we are more likely to be right – we just have to have enough patience to wait for the survey to be finished and the budget to pay to hold positions overnight while we wait to be proved right.

  Hello Altares,

  in theory it is very beautiful, but the data of the probacktest are always different from the reality, above all on smaller timeframe of the daily, therefore I recommend you do not to apply it to real market

  ALE u running this live still? It looks almost to good to be true 🙂 amazing backtest-results

   

  I’ve played with different forex pairs and it seems like u can definitly optimize this for different pairs..

  If ur running it live, on what pairs so far?

  Live results close to backtest so far?

  how long have u been running it live?

  Hello Jebus

  I’m testing it on the real one of the first versions, to understand better the differences with the probacktest, along time we have observed quite a lot differences, probably caused by closings not happened for a simple tick, in real as in the probacktest.

  The weakness of this strategy also consists in too little points of gain for every trade.

  The concept it’s good, but it’s not so simple to automatize it.

  Thanks for you attention!

  You are excused! Although I do not fully understand what you have written in your post. My last post on this thread was over three months ago and my memory does not go back that far with much clarity!

  Of course,

  I tried out the 30min v2 strategy, that u have on the first post, on the 1H TF, eur/usd mini.

  The results are above from that backtest, not alot of trades, but It looks too good to be true. 95% win rate.

  Anyone can try a 200k backtest and/or a WF?

  200K backtest with 30min v2 strategy on 1 hour chart.

  Good results but very low returns per trade and it also appears that in recent times performance has been dropping off.

  ALE released the code to us on 16-4- 2017 so (although he never intended it to be run on the 1 hour chart so it was not optimized for this at all) any trades since this date are true OOS trades. Not many to go on and not very exciting even if there is a small profit.
