Backtest results with EMA are inaccurate. The signal was shown to be permitted before the EMA had closed above because the indicator uses an approximation method for the entry price level, it tries to simulate real time behaviour. The  EMA 1 should exceed the close of the candle.

For a valid real time signal the real time EMA should exceed the close of the bar. In history there are no real time data therefore instead of real time EMA we use the closed candle EMA. This is obviously inaccurate and explains why the circled areas could have given valid real time entry signals but no historical ones.

It defines the stop loss as a percentage of  the distance of current price from the take profit level. You can set it to 50 for a test.

A dynamic trailing stop option and the ability to copy SSBODynamicBreakoutBox signals have beed added to Rossbot.

I have no experience with renko therefore I have no plans to support it.

I may consider adding dynamic trailing stop to a future Rossbot version.

The new version has many code improvements.  ReverseLogic allows trading the retracements to the opposite side of a CZ which is the take profit target. All elements of the trading logic have the opposite function, even martingale results in lot increase after the take profit is hit. One can optimize two instances of the indicator, one…[Read more]

The value shown at the close of a trade is not pips but profit, therefore in case of martingale it is increased.

The MA is applied to close of price.. does this need to be changed?

No.

Why can i not implement these on a normal broker by manually selecting the MA period 1..??

I can’t help you on this problem, you may try to contact your broker.

Could you just explain to me why i am able to get the MA period to 1 on the SSBO and on real time brokers i can only put the MA period to minimum of 2 and not 1.

I can set the MA period to 1 in my Metatrader charts.

When i click the EMA to true from false and then adjust the MA period to 1 i get the best stats on backtest..?

These stats are not…[Read more]

The biggest issue I’m having is understanding the EMA period. I have selected this to 1 in the ssbo how come some trades are not being entered even when they break out of the consolidation box at the first time?

If MinBarsClosedOutside is 1 then the real time EMA should exceed the close of the break out candle. For the closed candles the si…[Read more]

Could please explain how the change of BoxRange should block a trade?

What are the MinBarsClosedOutside and MAAppliedPrice settings?

What are your exact settings?

For a valid entry the real time EMA should break a level. If MinBarsClosedOutside is set to zero then this level is the breakout level of the consolidation zone. If MinBarsClosedOutside is greater than zero then this level is the close of the candle that closed beyond the breakout level of the consolidation zone. You can check the validity of EM…[Read more]
