Portfolio: PriceChannelExpert and others - page 7

 

I've got a few other questions though.

Will a typical computer be able to run several different EA's over several different currencies (depending on the portfolio)? Won't most of the EA's we're optimizing right now end up not actually making us money? Or are the EA's you've put in this thread all very good and so they will likely make money in the long run?

And just as a suggestion, to keep everything organized I recommend you create a sticky thread that's locked by everyone except yourself. So then you can post the latest portfolio's in that thread for easy access (rather than having to scour these forums for the latest version amongst dozens of replies and conversations). We can still have this thread to discuss the evolution of the portfolios. What do you think?

Yes, One portfolio will be one or several EAs working in one MetaTrader on typical computer.

I am optimizing the new EAs. "New" means I did not make forward test. I am doing it to create the settings only. Then I will test it (backtest) on the data since 2001 (just to prove the settings).

As to the thread so I can find everything. It is inside my computer.

 

Ok that's good I was wondering if maybe too many EA's would slow the computer down too much.

Should we add Pengie's GridMACD to the portfolio? It is producing awesome results.

(just in case you missed that thread)

Combine that with it's contest results and you have 1500 pips with USD/CHF in not even one month!

But next month?

I'm affraid for grid.

As I know Pengie changed timeframe now so let's see how it will be.

Anyway the contest just started. And I got a lot of proposals how to count it: pips per order and so on. Contest just started. Second month only.

Yup you are right it is still early in testing it. However it is still 1 month of amazing live testing results which we don't have for the other EA's in this portfolio. I will try to backtest it tonight and see what happens. It looks like there's a bug in the H1 timeframe that Pengie is working on.

 

Maybe I'm just being dumb, but is this publicly available? When I do a search for "grid" I don't find any threads with the source of this EA.
