Divergence Explorer strategy
Konstantin.Usanov · Thu Dec 02, 2010 6:14 am
Hi!
I’d like to introduce Divergence Explorer strategy.
This strategy is based on last version of well-known dMACD(ext) strategy (please, see topic: “(NEW) Introduce dMACD strategy (Divergence on MACD Signals)” http://www.fxcodebase.com/code/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=1985) and allow to choice different indicators (not only MACD) for divergence calculation and trading.
I hope the Divergence Explorer strategy will be useful and comfortable.

The Strategy was revised and updated on December 10, 2018.

Hi!
There is short report about backtesting of Divergence Explorer strategy.
“Playing with volumes” as price stream (data source) I have discovered amazing result for Divergence Explorer strategy.
For example (using ordinary MACD indicator with 5,34,5 parameters), if you choose EUR/JPYand Dailytimeframe, the profit gains up to 10 M$ during three year and to 1 M$ (approx) for one year.

I recently downloaded this Strategy and really like it.That’s because it is one of the few that has Margin control built in.Also I like the ability of choosing so many different indicators for backtesting. Is like having many Strategies all in one. An account I am using it on right now is very small and I need to keep at least a minimum of 30% Margin. I am only setting it for trading 1 lot up to 2 is Ok.Trouble is it keeps on doing 3 and I get a Margin % warning. I am setting it at 34 for 34% this way I should be in good shape for the minimum of 30%. I would really like to solve this problem because it is testing very well using the ADX Difference and making money. Otherwise I will only be able to do manual trading. Overnight is a problem doing the manual trading for me.
Thanks, Jim C. “JimTrader1”

Hi Konstantin,
Quick question,
I downloaded this strategy and tried testing it out, except I noticed it seemed to be Selling when it should be Buying.
I then tried using the settings you had suggested (MACD 5,34,5, DAILY TF etc) to see if I was doing something wrong, but I get the same results. Double checked everything with the ZIP file you provided, but no, same results.
I tried playing around with the money management settings etc as I have a U.S based account, but that did nothing.
Am I missing something here? I posted a screenshot of the results using your suggestions :
(FYI All the positions are sell (interestingly it shows in the statistics that there were no short trades…)
