Hey Bart,
Happy new year!
Yeah, that’s one of the things that I like with Petko, his detailed answers really clears up a lot of things.
I’m still on demo for algo trading but so far so good.
How about you?
Happy New Year, guys!
Did anyone test the percentage option in FSB Pro? Thre is the option to enter with certain % from the free margin, and not with lots.
I am not a fan of it, but I was wondering if anyone can share the experience with that.
Happy New Year’s Andi!
I’ve been trying it on and off, but it’s really difficult to follow the profit factor since the strategy is always taking different position sizing. So my idea was to manually adjust the position size on live as the account balance increased. Then continue to follow the static position sizing on demo to ensure the strategy is still working. Let me know your thoughts!
Hey Andi,
It is something that many people are looking for, but it is not practical when following the statistics. As Roman says, the Profit Factor would be not accurate. And not only the PF but all the others except the pips…
And having percentage entry might be useful if we double or triple accounts daily or weekly, which is not the reality 🙂
Thanks, Petko! I missed your answer. Yeah, I do not see the point of using percentage, but because it is so popular, I was curious. 🙂
In the beginning, when I took FSB Pro, I was 100% sure that I had to use the percentage as an entry. It took me about three months to realize that it is useless, and it makes the statistics worse.
Hi Mery,
This is because people think that when they start using Expert Advisor they will set just the percentage to trade with, and they will not do anything for months or even years, and their account will grow, grow…
This is what the scam brokers promise, and the accounts actually steadily disappear…
Hey Petko,
I trust you are doing fine!
Any idea if we can expect to have the generated EAs from EA Studio to upload in FSB Pro?
I want to backtest trading strategy with more details in FSB Pro, and at the same time to add some higher timeframe filters.
Hi, I am new here.
When I use the Generator, it often gives me almost the exact strategies in the same round. It uses the same indicators but slightly different parameters.
If I restart the Generator, I will get a very different strategy, follow by many strategies using the same indicators.
I check that it is not “lock” nor “link”.
What should I do?
Hello Allison,
Could you please share how do you set the Generator to work? What are the settings?
Please, attach some pictures so we can see better.
Hi Friends
I have ha Personal Indicator in TradingView . How can I put -my own indicator- in the Forex Strategy Builder Pro software?
Thanks.
The FSB Pro has some custom indicators but those should be with C++.
However, we expect an update from Forex Software to be able to export the strategies to Trading View. But not sure when this will happen. 🙂
Hi Petko and Adnan, just thought I’d mention it is actually C# that fsbpro uses rather than C++.
I personally have a big aversion to C++ so I’d probably straight away think “nope” if I had to do anything in C++, but C# is MUCH nicer and easier to knock something together if have a little bit of general programming experience 🙂
There is a large repository of indicators for FSBPro where you will be able to see the and copy the code, so I’d just copy the code from one of the simpler better written ones with clean well structured code (choose one that has been written by Popov) and make some modifications if you want to put a personal indicator together.
Hope that helps
