KeymasterHello Edu,
you are missing something with the optimization.
The first time you did it with step of 1, and the second time with step of 10.It is good to do optimization with round numbers as step. But make sure the parameters of the strategy before the optimization to be round as well.
For example, make Stop Loss 80 and Take Profit 70, and then do optimization with step of 10. Same for the other parameters
Your Monte Carlo is just fine. The over-optimized strategies will show total loss with all tests, which is not your case. And yes, you are correct.
No weekend for me during the last years, mate 🙂
Cheers

ParticipantMe too as entrepreneur, i have no fixed day off.
————————————————————I understand the problem and i did it again here the results:
<br />what is the boiling point for aluminum<br />
it seems that it has huge drawdown (when i use an Ea in real i typicaly use 0,10 lots)
I also did the montecarlo test (that i finally understand how it works)
<br />what is the boiling point for aluminum<br />
<br />what is the boiling point for aluminum<br />
How it looks to you? My broker and this strategy work well together?
—————————————————————————————————————————-
Now i have 3 good “looking” EA (EURUSD-EURGBP-GBPUSD), 1 (USDJPY) With too little data (but in demo in 5 days it closed everyday in loss) and this.
Probably i will buy the 99 ea course even if testing all of them would be difficoult considerinf FX blue doesn’t track very well the magic numbers
Thank you again

KeymasterHey Edu,
for the first post:
The Optimization results seems better, and I think the Monte Carlo looks just normal for the number of bars you have. Later when you have bigger number of bars, the strategies will get more and more robust.
The USDJPY looks so much better. I see on your FSB back test that you have more than 300 count of trades which is a reliable number.
Also, when you perform the Monte Carlo, you can select the last two options together. No need to do it separately.
Cheers

KeymasterThank you, Edu! Appreciate it. It is always about testing…
Let me know if you have other questions about FSB.

MemberHello guys!
Interesting topic about the FSB here. I actually succeeded to download some historical data from my broker, they have it on their website. And on M1 I have more than 650k bars. I am not sure if so many bars would be good idea?3
Also, how can I be sure that this Historical data is from the server I am using for the broker?

ParticipantHey Andi, I think your data is a bit too much. With so many bars you will get Moreno robust strategies but their daily results will be not that satisfying. The more data you have, the more you limit the average profit per day.
The only think you can test is if your demo account matches with the journal.

KeymasterAndi,
keep in mind that you can collect long time Historical data from one server from one broker, and at one moment if they move your account to another server, or if you open another live account it could be on another server.
Normally the broker should notify you about that, but I wouldn’t trust it.
Anyway, Thetrader is right, the more bars you have, the better, but your profit per day will reduce. Simply, the FSB Pro looks for such strategies that are working profitably over the whole period, which cause smaller daily profits.
Kind regards,

MemberThank you indeed, I missed to see your answer Petko.
So should I reduce my Historical data? I guess this way I will put more weight on the recent market data.
And by the way FSB is the best tool I have ever used in trading.

KeymasterHey Andi,
Glad to hear from you again.
Yes, it is not bad to reduce the data. In EA Studio the maximum is 200 000 and that is for a reason.
In FSB Pro I go maximum to 300 000 on M1 chart.
Yes, I know FSB Pro is fantastic strategy builder…keep in mind that I tested it long long time before placing it on our website.
