Z4 no trades - 05/07/14 19:38

Been trading Z4 on a live FXCM account and it's been trading for 3 days now and hasn't made any trades. I ran Z5 on a demo account and it went good. Is Z4 a just a slow starter or am I missing something?

You can see the average trade frequency of a system in the backtest. As you can imagine, a system on a $200 budget can not trade very often.

Hey PickSix, my last trade in Z4 was on 30th April.

Thanks for the replies, sounds like it's normal, for some reason I thought that the initial trades were usually in 1-2 days of starting trading

Z4/Z5 tend to trade more when the markets are moving. April has been very slow with all the bank holidays and such. Even the chart of EURCHF is in a narrowing range. I expect things to start moving very soon and Z4/Z5 should make more trades.
