System with more take profit - 05/11/21 22:49

Hi,

Is there a solution in Zorro to handle more trades as one trade? To have more profit levels I have to open more trades, but in statistics they will be seen as single trades. The problem with that is the performance report will be completely wrong and the optimization will not show the correct parameters. Do someone have any workaround for this?

So you want to optimize position size? Try virtual hedging. On every run, exit your position and enter long or short your desired position size. At the end of the run, you will be placed at the desired position.

No, I don't want to optimize position size, I want to optimize different indicator parameters. Because of bar periods, I have to separate the test into each bar period i would like to test and save them into separate log files, so I can't run the optimization on all the bar periods the same time to get a summarized result of optimization. I have to come up with an idea what will be the best and fastest solution to do it on my system.

I did not understand the question about the single trades, but for optimizing bar periods use a 1 minute bar period and optimize TimeFrame instead.

By "single trade" I mean all of the trades what I open will be shown separately in performance report. But I want to open ten position with different take profit levels when I get a signal and after all of this ten position are closed I want to see them as they were just one trade.
For example: I get a signal so I open ten position, first with take profit on the 200 fibo grid level, second on the 300 fibo grid level and so on. When all the trades are closed for this signal I want to see the profit of this ten position merged (what is possible to do) and I want to handle this ten position as one position so I can get correct information (how many trades I opened, win ratio ...) out of performance report.
Let me know if it's still not clear what I mean and I try to explain it somehow else. Thank you!

I would then use a single trade with a TMF that closes 1/10 position at any TP level.

I do that. Downsides, I had to implement logging and use the log file to analyze trades and can't use optimization for parameters with this type of managing. But I have an idea how I will solve that with my system.
Many thanks for help jlc! grin
