Participant@Andi and Petko – Yes i have both “same direction signal” and “opposite direction signal” checked, in hopes that it would add to winners, and reverse at the opposite signal using the higher time frames. But when i run it like this, it keeps removing my behavior requests. Getting very annoyed with this.

ParticipantI pulled a random strategy out of the repository. You can see even though I’ve set to Add and to Reverse, it’s changed to no adding/no reduction. Am i doing something wrong here?

ParticipantHey Roman,
Glad to hear from you but you are not following the conversation. I pointed out in the picture that Opposite directional signal should be unchecked. Also, Andi made it clearer that when it is checked then the Generator changes the entry rules.
Keep both unchecked and run the Generator. This way it will keep it adding and reversing (what you have set).
Let me know
Kind regards,

ParticipantOHHHHHHH ok yes, I misunderstood. I’ll go ahead and reset my generator per your instructions. Thanks Petko, will update later today with what the generator finds while I’m back at work.

ParticipantGlad to hear that, Roman. I think by default the FSB Pro comes with the unticked boxes. Maybe at some point, you have place ticks there…
Do not hesitate to ask any questions.

ParticipantYes for some reason it made sense for me to select it thinking “yes i’d like you to figure out same directional and opposite direction signals”, not quite understanding that it was actually meaning “i’m going to remove your requests and figure it out on my own”. Appreciate you as always Petko. And you as well Andi for trying to explain though it went over my head…

Participant@Petko – For the FSB optimizer, if I’m trying to optimize TP/SL i know the min and max are in points so 100 = 10pips. Is the step the same as in i need to set it at 100 in order to equal 10 pips as well?
@Andi – I saw you’ve purchased 3 FSB licenses from your posts in the forum. I’ve grown quite fond of EA Studio for the entire process being automated. Would you mind sharing some FSB pointers? I’ve had both softwares since December of 2017 but my old laptop could only handle 1 window at a time of EA Studio so never really touched FSB till now.Gracias Fellas!

ParticipantJust now I realized that I have checked these two and most of the EAs are not with adding and reverse…I will need to go over all my EAs because I do not remember when I did it. Thanks, guys!

ParticipantHi Roman,
Hope you are doing fine. Good, you solved your problem with the opposite directional signals.
Now, FSB Pro is quite a huge software if you get me. I use it so much and all the time I find something new and something I have missed.
Now I am doing big EAs(up to 20 conditions). I took me a long time to figure out how to structure the EAs, what logic groups to use.
It depends a lot on your trading methods and what is your logic in trading. But FSB Pro for sure is the more professional software(with more possibilities). And yes, it requires a goood machine.

ParticipantHola Andi,
Wow when you say 20 logic it reminds me of being in band again in high school. A lot of moving parts to coordinate to create a beautiful sound. Kind of intimidating at the same time.

Participant@ Andi, interesting to see that you are doing the same too. I’m using several logical groups both in the opening and closing conditions for some strategies. The only thing to note is that the EAs become too large and if you place them (like I usually do) on several currency pairs and multi timeframes then you will require a premium VPS to handle the load on MT4.
Simple EAs often work, I only use the complex ones to achieve specific objectives.

ParticipantAlso I started playing with signal repeat and sometimes it is a beauty. It definitely improves the statistics for most strategies. Care is needed though, else it will do more damage than good. It often works well for backtest but you may not guarantee it’s behaviour realtime with changing market conditions. I have a good understanding of what I want the signal repeat to achieve whenever I use it, in that case I avoid randomly plugging in some numbers.
April 25, 2019 at 1:30 am #11528Roman
ParticipantGood evening Ossaio, by signal repeat you mean adding to the positions?
April 25, 2019 at 6:52 am #11529Petko Aleksandrov
ParticipantHey Roman,
We had a small band at school too đŸ™‚ I was with the guitar, but now I do not find time for it…
Well, I just started adding them one by one and I always try to get the moment where the move starts together on a few time frames.
Anyway, I can not make a conclusion if using so many entry conditions is better or not. I will need some more tests.
