Topic: SL/TP optimization with Day Closing

I have a "Day Closing" closing point. How can I optimize my stop loss and take profit? It's impossible... And this is really bad for me and my strategy...

Re: SL/TP optimization with Day Closing

If you closing point is some indicator (or Day Closing in your case) you have to use Permanent Stop Loss and Take Profit. These stops are not included in optimizer but you can easily "optimize" them manually.

Open Strategy Properties window and start changing the stops by rotating the mouse wheel. FSB will calculate strategy at real time and you can monitor balance line on the chart.

Re: SL/TP optimization with Day Closing

Yes, but sometimes I need to more precise optimizing and/or optimize SL/TP with some (or all) indicator parameters...

Re: SL/TP optimization with Day Closing

I'll probably add Permanent SL / TP optimization in next releases.

Re: SL/TP optimization with Day Closing

try this
use the strat generator. save your strat with a new name first.
Load it in FSB
Click on generator.
Lock all logic slots
Make sure number of available logic slots matches exactly what you have in your strat.
check gen new strat and uncheck do not change SL and TP

this is how I have been optimizing stops.
