Thanks but like I said, that's just my approach/strategy to it. Might not work or be understandable to everyone. You still need to understand how to work with the dots and arrows on Xard's system because from what i've seen, in almost all of his systems the dots and arrows work the same. He might had some other indicator or feature or change some MAs in a different variant but the dots and arrows practically remain the same in almost all the systems and if you don't understand how those work, none of the other things will help. A good EA to use for backtesting the dots and arrows is soft4x simulator which was shared somewhere here sometime back.Curioso wrote: Sat Mar 23, 2024 2:56 am Hello Coolcrow ,

Re: XARD - Simple Trend Following Trading System
14842Is there any other way to backtest the system? I never got the sf4x simulator to work so could never really test it, and since semaphores redraw can never be sure of how it would have been live.Coolcrow wrote: Sat Mar 23, 2024 3:17 am Thanks but like I said, that's just my approach/strategy to it.

14844I've never had a problem with Soft4FX. Even on my old laptop. Here is the one that I use and a guide on how to use it properly. Just copy the ex4 file to your experts folder and restart mt4 then refresh your indicators. Should work just fine.ffsss wrote: Sat Mar 23, 2024 5:51 am Is there any other way to backtest the system?

Re: XARD - Simple Trend Following Trading System
14846Will try. One more question, i downloaded both systems you pointed but when loading the "###studydic.tpl" doesnt show any of them.Coolcrow wrote: Sat Mar 23, 2024 3:41 pm I've never had a problem with Soft4FX.

Re: XARD - Simple Trend Following Trading System
14847Go back to the same place you downloaded the tpl, scroll down a bit more and you'll see that he posted the indicators later on. here. post1295383593.html#p1295383593ffsss wrote: Sat Mar 23, 2024 9:12 pm Will try.

Just to add, like I said before, this my own personalized way of trading, might work or might not work for you. I've found that people everywhere have different ways of trading and looking at things so most of the time, you can't just make someone else's way of trading work for you. For example, a member called ODJ has a system that works for him and he shared all the details here, but not matter how much I tried it, I just couldn't make it work for me. My hope is that you'll find a way to personalize or improve your own style with the info I gave.
