			<description><![CDATA[<p>Hi,<br />i prapared a strategy but the i am not sure about stop loss. Is it high or low. or could expert traders tell me the optimum stop loss limit, i always use 1000 but i think it is low in 4 hours or not?</p><p>this is the strategy</p><p>Strategy name: <strong>mavcrossSupertrendBollinger</strong><br />Forex Strategy Builder v3.8.2.0<br />Exported on: 21.10.2014 22:44:09</p><p>Description:<br />This is an &quot;empty&quot; strategy.</p><p>You can use it as a base to build your strategy from scratch.</p><p>Feel free to experiment!</p><p>You can set the opening and the closing point of the position, add opening or closing logic conditions, and adjust the strategy properties.</p><p>The &quot;Opening Point of the Position&quot; slot shows the price, at which the strategy enters the market and adds/removes from an open position. We enter the market at a price level determined by an indicator value or by time (&quot;Bar Opening&quot; for example). However, before we open position we need confirmation from the &quot;Opening Logic Condition&quot; slots.</p><p>The &quot;Opening Logic Conditions&quot; basically tell you whether to enter the market or not when the entry price has been reached. They also determine the position&#039;s direction (whether we enter short or long). There is no any &quot;Opening Logic Condition&quot; in this strategy and that leads to undetermined entry direction.&nbsp; &nbsp;Because of that the program doesn’t open positions during the backtest.</p><p>The &quot;Closing Point of the Position&quot; sets the exit price. If you set it at &quot;Bar Closing&quot;, you can add &quot;Closing Logic Conditions&quot;. They will block the exit until at least one of them is fulfilled. If you do not use &quot;Closing Logic Conditions&quot;, the position will be closed when the &quot;Closing Point&quot; is reached.</p><p>The Strategy Overview explains the strategy logic in an additional window and can be exported to a file.</p><p>Look in the forum for help or more information on creating forex strategies.</p><p>Remember! The strategy slots describe the long position logic only. Forex Strategy Builder will set the short position logic automatically using the same logic but in the opposite direction.</p><br /><p>-----------<br />Modified by the strategy generator on 31.05.2014 19:10.</p><p>-----------<br />Modified by the strategy generator on 01.06.2014 23:37.</p><p>-----------<br />Modified by the strategy generator on 10.07.2014 16:45.</p><p>-----------<br />Modified by the strategy generator on 10.07.2014 17:26.</p><p>-----------<br />Modified by the strategy generator on 11.07.2014 11:00.</p><p>-----------<br />Modified by the strategy generator on 07.10.2014 05:25.</p><p>-----------<br />Modified by the strategy generator on 07.10.2014 05:32.</p><p>-----------<br />Modified by the strategy generator on 07.10.2014 05:43.</p><p>-----------<br />Modified by the strategy generator on 07.10.2014 05:48.</p><p>-----------<br />Modified by the strategy generator on 07.10.2014 05:55.</p><p>-----------<br />Modified by the strategy generator on 18.10.2014 00:32.</p><p>-----------<br />Modified by the strategy generator on 18.10.2014 01:12.</p><p>-----------<br />Modified by the strategy generator on 20.10.2014 03:24.</p><p>-----------<br />Modified by the strategy generator on 20.10.2014 03:24.</p><p>Market: EURUSD 4 Hours<br />Spread in points: 44,00<br />Swap Long in Points: -3,00<br />Swap Short in Points: -3,00<br />Commission per lot at opening and closing in Points: 0,00<br />Slippage in points: 0</p><p>Maximum open lots: 100,00<br />Entry lots: 1,00</p><p>Intrabar scanning: Not accomplished<br />Interpolation method: Pessimistic scenario<br />Ambiguous bars: 0<br />Tested bars: 7253<br />Balance: <strong>118687 points (163687,00 USD)</strong><br />Minimum account: -1288 points (43712,00 USD)<br />Maximum drawdown: 6359 points (6359,00 USD)<br />Time in position: 62 %</p><p><strong><span style="color:#966">[Strategy Properties]</span></strong><br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;A same direction signal - Does nothing<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;An opposite direction signal - Reverses the position<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Permanent Stop Loss - 1220<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Permanent Take Profit - 2570<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Break Even - 1740</p><p><strong><span style="color:#693">[Opening Point of the Position]</span></strong><br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<strong><span style="color:blue">Bar Opening</span></strong><br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<strong><span style="color:#066">Enter the market at the beginning of the bar</span></strong><br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Base price&nbsp; -&nbsp; Open</p><p><strong><span style="color:#699">[Opening Logic Condition]</span></strong><br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<strong><span style="color:blue">Moving Averages Crossover</span></strong><br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<strong><span style="color:#066">Fast MA is lower than Slow MA</span></strong><br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Base price&nbsp; -&nbsp; Close<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Fast MA method&nbsp; -&nbsp; Weighted<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Slow MA method&nbsp; -&nbsp; Exponential<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Fast MA period&nbsp; -&nbsp; 1<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Slow MA period&nbsp; -&nbsp; 138<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Fast MA shift&nbsp; -&nbsp; 87<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Slow MA shift&nbsp; -&nbsp; 70<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Use previous bar value&nbsp; -&nbsp; Yes</p><p><strong><span style="color:#699">[Opening Logic Condition]</span></strong><br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<strong><span style="color:blue">SuperTrend</span></strong><br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<strong><span style="color:#066">The Moving Average falls</span></strong><br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Period&nbsp; -&nbsp; 2<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Multiplier&nbsp; -&nbsp; 137,5<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Use previous bar value&nbsp; -&nbsp; Yes</p><p><strong><span style="color:#d63">[Closing Point of the Position]</span></strong><br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<strong><span style="color:blue">Bollinger Bands</span></strong><br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<strong><span style="color:#066">Exit long at Upper Band</span></strong><br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Smoothing method&nbsp; -&nbsp; Smoothed<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Base price&nbsp; -&nbsp; Close<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;MA period&nbsp; -&nbsp; 23<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Multiplier&nbsp; -&nbsp; 4,88<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Use previous bar value&nbsp; -&nbsp; Yes</p>]]></description>
