Hi all,

Still confused.

I couldn't understand why I had pending phantom trades considering I had phantom=0 in the z.ini, but I now think it is related to virtual hedging as z5 was operating in mode 2.

Does the virtual hedging mechanism work by placing firstly various phantom positions for a period and then placing net real trades, or does it mean that various real positions are taken first and then phantom trades help adjust the net positions?

In either case I am still confused as to why a grid system would initially place 2 phantom pending trades, remove them and not place any further real or phantom trades since 24-9.

Look in your manual under "Virtual Hedging", there is everything explained. If something is still unclear, just ask here.

Quote:
The performance figures and statistics (Long/Short/Total) are summed up from the net trades only


1) Does this mean that the status bar (info area) when z5 is operating in mode 2 will only show 1 net trade, & net profits? If correct then why did the pending phantom trades appear there?

2) Does the log (message area) only show phantom trades?

3) Is it normal that the strategy has not taken any trades since 24th Sept?

Searching the site:manual.zorro-trader.com Virtual Hedging in google brings me to a page that is incorrect, where reference is still made to the use of the variable Hedging. My understanding is that the variable is now called Hedge.
