Re: EURUSD 1day Fractal, 6000pips profit, 100% reliable
Ok,
I think this is ok.
0.6 pip is a very low spread. I think it is not the whole time on the day.

Re: EURUSD 1day Fractal, 6000pips profit, 100% reliable
with prices 1.22682 vs. 1.22688 my spread is 6 pips on 5digits equal to 0.6 pip on 4 digits.
So i should put 6 in FSB 5 digits, am I right?
This is OK.

You can set the commission in USD in Market-Edit Instruments
You can test your settings by using Tools->Profit Calculator. Compare one real position with one calculated.

Thank you very much, i already sat up the commission correctly but i didn't know about profit calculator 
Re: EURUSD 1day Fractal, 6000pips profit, 100% reliable
I know this is an old post.. but just adding a comment.. the spread is 0.6 pips using the differential of 1.22682 vs 1.22688.
If it was 6 pips, then you would have a differential of 1.22620 vs 1.22680 or some combination of differential between the 4th digit numbers.

Hello,
I see that embedded EURUSD data is provided until middle 2011. Have you tested it on newer data? I see the loss of 2000USD in last 2 years. Is there anyone who can confirm this?

Re: EURUSD 1day Fractal, 6000pips profit, 100% reliable
Hello,
It seems that out data differ. I have compared closing prices for your data and mine and there is even a difference in 0.1 point!
Do you think that this is a root cause of different results?

Well it can't help!
Where does your data come from and what is the GMT offset of your broker.

Re: EURUSD 1day Fractal, 6000pips profit, 100% reliable
When I working on that strategy, 5 years ago, I found out that it works bets for my local time zone data (GMT +2).
I can try to explain why it does so.
It seams that EURUSD market (as the biggest one) has some inertia. If the market reaches a previous pick (fractal) it has a tendency for eventual going through for a little while and closing over.
It works on a high time scale as D1 and only for EURUSD. It also seams that the moment of the break through and the position closing are important. That's why the time zone matters.
This strategy gives a surprisingly steady performance for its life time, but it is not suitable for short time experiments. Probably for long time period it can beat the stock dividends, but for sure there will be years with no profit.
Re: EURUSD 1day Fractal, 6000pips profit, 100% reliable
Hi SpiderMan and Mr Popov,
That is amazying as I am located in UTC +1 which is similar to your timezone. I do not care that this strategy might provide looses in short time. I prefer to be long term trader.
You can find the data I am using on http://stooq.pl/q/d/?s=eurusd

Actually this strategy is so simple that it doesn't need FST. You know the entry level in advance. You can simple set a pending entry order or two OCO orders in case of possible entries in both directions. Remember to remove the entry orders if they have not been activated or use the option "valid till the end of the day".
If a position was open, you have to close it manually at midnight or to use FST to close it for you.
