Action, target and stop conditions are set simply. Buy or sell, 4 tick profit, 4 tick stop.
I run the strategy and get 346 entries, with 40% profitable rate.
I then reverse the strategy actions for the condition, so that in either case it sells instead of buys, or buys instead of sells.
The entry condition, target and stop remain exactly the same.
I run the strategy again. I assume I will see 346 entries again, as the entry condition remains exactly the same, only the “action” has been reversed, and actions don't effect the original condition.
Only, to my shock, this time I get 340 entries.
This does not make sense to me, the entry condition is exactly the same, only the action differs…. why would the number of entries change?
