Hi Manuel,
This seems to be an oscillator that has two optimimization variables,
but I don't see your specific entry or exit condition. The following
will get you long when the indicator crosses below 30, and it should
exit on bar 3. I ran this test and checked about 15 or so entries/exits
and they looked right. After you run this (or your) test, be sure that
you change the indicator on your chart to match the optimization
variables that the test churned out, otherwise you could see some
entries/exits that don't seem right. Assuming that you are doing that,
the other thing I see is some invalid math errors on the test, so maybe
this is the problem. Try changing the lowest OPT number to 2 instead of
1 and see if that gets rid of the math errors. If this none of this
helps, try running the test without the OPT variables and see what
happens. If there is still a problem, send the exact entry and exit
condition so we can can a look.
Good luck,
Ken
--Enter Long--
BmIndicator:=
Mov((Sum((CLOSE -OPEN) >0,opt7)/
(Sum((CLOSE -OPEN) >0,opt7)+
Sum((CLOSE -OPEN) <0,opt7)))*100,opt8,S);
Cross(30,BmIndicator)
--Close Long--
BmIndicator:=
Mov((Sum((CLOSE -OPEN) >0,opt7)/
(Sum((CLOSE -OPEN) >0,opt7)+
Sum((CLOSE -OPEN) <0,opt7)))*100,opt8,S);
EnterLong:=Cross(BmIndicator,30);
ExitLong:=BarsSince(EnterLong)
