        Hi, sorry for the delay, but I have family in the hospital and I missed your request. Today, I should be adding a simplification and partially eliminating the dual-use function, as well as updating the cBot, as few people understand how to use it effectively (too many possibilities and alternatives). For me, the basis of this bot's operation is to launch it semi-automatically at the right moment in the trend, i.e., the D1/H4/H1 trend, and then move to the H1-M1-5 entry. Some of my indicators are used to determine this. As for the Pyramid and Grid together, it's not easy to set up, and instead of the grid, you can only launch one position. After the simplification, the bot will remain in its current form, and a new one with advanced filter algorithms and manual controls will be released. Regards.

            After testing the bot and analyzing both backtest and optimization logs, the actual behavior appears quite different from a pure trend-following system.
            In practice, the bot builds positions using a grid + pyramiding approach. This leads to rapid exposure growth, especially during unfavorable movements, and eventually triggers the hard stop mechanism.
            I also noticed technical issues in the logs, including invalid stop loss values and occasional position closing errors, which could impact real trading stability.
            Overall, the system has an interesting structure, but it currently behaves more like a high-risk grid strategy rather than a controlled trend follower.
            It would be helpful to clarify:
            how the trend filter actually restricts grid expansion
            whether the SL calculation issue is known
            recommended safe configurations for live trading

                    Hi,
                    The new bot, in addition to the changed algorithm and further simplification, will feature an expanded/modified trade panel that is easy to use and a new filter section, which I found effective for lowering DD in auto mode.

                    i.e.:

                    • Keltner Extremes
                    • vwap
                    • ADX Trend Filter
                    • Min Bars Between Grids
                    • & Hard Streth (changing the distance of a specific grid number)

                    without harming the result, while significantly improving operational safety and protecting against SL in most cases.

                    Best regards.

                          When it comes to SL's operation, the problem stems from a misunderstanding of how the whole thing works - that's why I've simplified it significantly.

                          Best regards.

                            How long should I run it before making a decision?

                                Learning a semi-automatic strategy takes about a month of testing, but moving to full automatic mode can take longer. The question is, do you understand what you're doing?
