No back test!!!! Ha
These are stats for one year.
Criteria:
Enter only after a gap down.
Buy at 0.30 above the open
profit target $1.50 Sell on open of next bar running 5 min bars, You hit the profit target 61% of the time, the dollars calculated using 100 shares.
Stocks used for study: AAPL ABX ANR ICE MEE MON MOS POT RIMM
This is long only no shorting.........
I have no stop control because I suck at C# code so it may drop below the buy zone which should triger a stop, then bounce up to the 1.50 target for a win.
Dont look at the losses I cant code the stop.... so on big down days I eat the loss on the back test, which would not be the case in a live trade.
What you can take from this is you have a higher prob. of hitting your profit by fadeing the gap this stat can not be derived from the MTC scan.
This is why TRO says always trade the fade.
This is one trade per stock per day.
The back test shows a buy and hold, yet the program sells the stock at last bar of the day, so ignor the last col.
This could be automated and is on my list of goals to complet by the end of the year.

These are stats for one year.
Criteria:
Enter only after a gap down.
Buy at 0.30 above the open
profit target $1.50 Sell on open of next bar running 10 min bars, You hit the profit target 80% of the time, the dollars calculated using 100 shares.
======================================
Entry is at open + .10 through open + .20 in direction of fade until gap fills.
Profit target is at open + .50 (for testing purpose)

The ideal program would set profit target with a trailing stop, set a stop loss of 0.40 cents have the abilty to re enter on the same day. sounds easy right.......
The thing works on bar time scales and price sort of, if a bar closes it checks if its above or below your sell price the enters the sell order.

I know.
But if it clears +.30 it gose to 1.50 61% of the time.
If you change it to .20 it drops off......
I can runn it at +.20 and .50 profit it will hit the 90s but it is kind of a fake number becase the stop is not in.
The stat above is, if you enter a trade at open +.30 on a gap down day and hold for a 1.50 profit....no stoploss.

This is on a gap down Buy Open +0.20 sell 0.50 profit.
PS I was running an older code that had a way to peek, it wouldnt enter a trade on the back test if the candle was red, only green.

Eman,
C# codeing is what I do for living. Please let me know if I can be of any help. BTW, at 2:00 AM you will suck at almost any thing, get some sleep :-)

eh TRO,
I've downloaded your BZ indicators for esignal and also received your donation indicatiors for MT4, but I am considering going with Ninjatrader. My question is have you coded the indicators for NT? If you have can I receive them and if you have not could you code them for a price of course.
Thanks,
Static G
