Smart Scalper Pro Backtesting

The back-test by "Every tick" is the most precise, but it is very slow. If you wish to save time you can run the back-test on the M1 timeframe by the "Open price only ..." method and this will be correct too.

==== Time Management Settings ====

These settings have been specially developed to help traders avoid certain hour periods during the trading week when the Forex market behaves more unpredictable.

  • AllowedHour_ForBacktest - this parameter is only for backtesting! It helps optimizing the Time Management system. Here is how you can use it. During the optimization set start value 0, end value 23 and the step 1. You can optimize only one day per optimization. For example you want to optimize the forbidden hours for Monday, you have to disable other days bay settings TuesdayTrading=false ... to ... FridayTrading=false. At the end of the optimization the tester will show you the best hours for trading on Monday. You can add the bad hours in the parameter MondayForbiddenHours separated by comma, for example: 1,4,6.
  • MondayTrading - true/false - enable or disable trading on Monday
  • MondayHoursForbidden - forbidden trading hours for Monday (applies only when MondayTrading is enabled). You can set several values between 0 and 23 separated with commas. For example, if you set MondayHoursForbidden=9,10,11 the EA will not trade from 9:00 till 11:59. The hour values for this parameter are related to your broker’s server time (the Market Watch)!
  • TuesdayTrading - true/false - enable or disable trading on Tuesday
  • TuesdayHoursForbidden - forbidden trading hours for Tuesday (applies only when TuesdayTrading is enabled). You can set several values between 0 and 23 separated with commas. For example, if you set TuesdayHoursForbidden=9,10,11 the EA will not trade from 9:00 till 11:59. The hour values for this parameter are related to your broker’s server time (the Market Watch)!
  • WednesdayTrading - true/false - enable or disable trading on Wednesday
  • WednesdayHoursForbidden - forbidden trading hours for Wednesday (applies only when WednesdayTrading is enabled). You can set several values between 0 and 23 separated with commas. For example, if you set WednesdayHoursForbidden=9,10,11 the EA will not trade from 9:00 till 11:59. The hour values for this parameter are related to your broker’s server time (the Market Watch)!
  • ThursdayTrading - true/false - enable or disable trading on Thursday
  • ThursdayHoursForbidden - forbidden trading hours for Thursday (applies only when ThursdayTrading is enabled). You can set several values between 0 and 23 separated with commas. For example, if you set ThursdayHoursForbidden=9,10,11 the EA will not trade from 9:00 till 11:59. The hour values for this parameter are related to your broker’s server time (the Market Watch)!
  • FridayTrading - true/false - enable or disable trading on Friday

  • SaturdayTrading and SundayTrading - true/false - enable or disable trading during Saturday and Sunday respectively. Due to big GMT offset, some brokers trade during weekends and for that reason we added these parameters as well

Example: MondayHoursForbidden = "9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16";

==== Friday Exit ====

  • FridayExit - true/false - if you wish to close all trades on Friday, you should use FridayExit=true.
  • ExitHour - the robot will close all open positions at this hour on Friday.
  • LastTradeHour - the robot can trade until the end of this hour on Friday (including this hour).
