    Hi - Those are impressive results. The report title shows "Back-Testing Strategy Performance Report". Does your algo perform with similar results in real time? What sort of slippage do you get? I'm a scalper as well. I use either limit orders or market orders with profit target/stoploss. I also use a volume delta factor - similar to your ACV, so I'm interested as to how it's working for you in real time. Thanks.

    It always says - "Back-Testing Strategy Performance Report" - but - the results - are NOT Back-Tested. Personally - I know a lot of Developers - that Back-Test_Optimize - and there systems work okay for awhile - then FAIL. It is all about how the Algo is coded.

    Send me a Private Message - I will explain a little - about the code - don't want to do it here.

    My preference is Scalping - although I will do Short-Term Scalp_Trend combinations. See #271 above.

    Just testing some new code and playing around - haven't traded it with Real Money yet. This is what I call my Bizarro code - a Scalp_Trend combination. It Enters trades - that we would not normally take.

    The charts show our Algorithmic Signals. Of course - trading this fast - Discretionary - NOT realistic.
    --One Tick Range Bar--
    --Scalping for One Tick on Top Chart--
    --Stop and Reverse on Bottom Chart--

    Head and Shoulders

    This chart shows how I do Head and Shoulders - based on a One Tick Range Bar - however - using the Green and Red dots - an Indicator which I developed many years ago.

    While I trade mostly with my Algo Signals now - I used this trading method for many years and still trade it now and then.

    On this chart - I show how I do Head and Shoulders - my way. Also shown - are Support and Resistance lines - based on the Open of the bar - NOT the High or Low - which for me - I find to be more accurate. I use both charts together - great for Scalping - and/or - Scalp_Trend combinations.

    By the way - I Scalp - base on Price Action ONLY - on the Current Bar. On this chart - which is a 7 Tick Range Bar - if Price gets within 3 ticks of Support or Resistance - I look at the Green and Red Dots - and depending on what I see - I will do a CounterTrend Scalp. I trade back and forth - between Support and Resistance. There are other things I consider - but won't get into that now.
