shaw is a very aggressive strategy that follows the market trend. It is applied to GBPUSD (September) on the 4-Hour chart. It is a simple srategy that uses 3 indicators, RSI with period of 21, 5 Exponential MA and 17 Exponential MA. Long trades are opened when 5EMA > 17EMA, and when RSI > 53. Short trades are opened when 5EMA < 17EMA, AND RSI < 47. If a bullish trend changes, the strategy will close long trade and start selling. If the bearish trend changes, it will close short trade and start buying. Trading volume is 5M, TP= 11, SL = 100. Settings for GBPJPY, TP= 11, SL= 120

Strategy not running - unfair if you get a prize now!

Most of the time this strategy does not run as compared to mine, which runs throughout the month non-stop. Apart from today, whenever I checked this strategy it was not running. It starts running like today, does 4 trades in 4 hours and stops running like now. Choosing when to manually press the restart button gives an unfair advantage over other contestants, who do not have this choice as their strategies are running non-stop.

@fx211pips, my strategy was designed following all the contest rules, there is no hibernate or "stop-trade" function. It is a trend-following strategy.

Please read Trading rules pt 4 & pt 5d and Programming rules pt 1 & pt 4c.

Like I said earlier, all rules were followed. There is no hibernate or "stop-trade" function in the strategy. There were also no errors during compilation. Please let a girl shine, I have been in the strategy contest since 2013, last month was my month. Deal with it.

I ran your September strategy. Within minutes of running it opened 19 positions, closed 2 and left 17 open, and this is why your strategy is crashing, due to multiple order resubmissions, which actually is breaching Trading Rules pt 6. What you are missing is the block that should be first - IF all positions Position amount = 0. October code has the same problem and currently is "not running". Now you have the unfair advantage of choosing when (at what time) to restart the strategy manually.  Don't take this personally, I'm just trying to point out issues with your strategy

@fx211pips, I am taking this personally because it looks like you are trying to get my strategy disqualified to push yours up a notch.And you are trying to accuse me of cheating. Firstly, the template I used for the strategy is one that has been awarded prizes before. The Dukascopy team already has control measures in place. Only one trade can be submitted at a time, irrespective of how many orders are sent. And contrary to what you might think, I dont restart the strategy at my convenience, all strategies are periodically restarted by the duskacopy team.

As I know, multiple order resubmissions is prohibited and in any case brings to disqualification! Thus claims of fx211pips and AdamFx42 are fair to you!

Kindly review the September trades, there are no multiple order resubmissions. Only one trade at a time.

Thanks man for advice! Just did it! And unfortunately your first revision has no order limitation block! It's clearly shown respected to version of 01.09.19. So maybe later on you've fixed it, but not the first one!

Multiple order resubmissions are strongly prohibited and might result in disqualification. The trading script of the strategy must include the validation on free margin and amount of simultaneously opened positions.

Please check account's Strategy Log.
Strategy was spamming with orders getting rejected. It has overloaded memory, so strategy was crashing many times.
Disqualified from September 2019 contest month.
