Hi Karl2007, i hope you are well.
i´m interested to do a backtest, is possible to share the trading conditions your used in the study?
You make a backtest on demo account, or using a simulator?
Regards.
Hi, I did the backtesting using the M30 and M15 charts, checking visually the signals and doing virtually the operation measuring the pips with the cross pointer. I moved back the chart and started on 6th December to18th.
For simulations, I use the Soft4Fx, but it doesn't work with complex indicators, so I didn't try to use it.
This is the Conditions for the backtesting. Someone can correct me if I have missed any important point to take in consideration.
- It's operated from 9:00 to 12:00 and 14:30 to 18:30. GMT+1 (operations are opened just in this time slot)
- Used the Forex pairs described in the study.
OPEN BUY OR SELL
Starting in a signal Zee Suport /Resistance or Scissors.
Sub-windows indicators should be aligned (apart from EMAs).
Trigger is all indicators aligned and EMA5 activated at closed candle.
Zee lines or Scissors signal should be activated during the current session.
Price should not be too far from signal when indicators are aligned.
Do not enter after a very long candle (volatility), wait next candle to decide.
SL placed under lower / over upper wick in signal generated with some space.
CLOSE Operations are closed manually with a contrary signal ( Zee Suport /Resistance or Scissors), when the candlestick that confirms the signal is closed.
Important: In the study, some operations are closed with the contrary signal out of the trading time (this is difficult to manage in real conditions). But for the study it doesn't matter.
So, it could be good to do this study in Forex, indexes, raw materials, etc. that you want to operate and Entry Time Frames you will choose for it.
