Futures and forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could
potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without
jeopardizing ones’ financial security or life style. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only
those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of
future results

atr stop has taken a great deal of work to get right, but its close to release
A great deal of work has gone into long only 23 hours a day 5.5 days a week nq system.
These are going well, and many close or on new highs


https://trademaid.info/gsbhelp/BuildingNasdaq23hrX55daySwing...
https://trademaid.info/forum/viewthread.php?tid=117&page=38

Ive also tested and see that 60 minute bars work fine. faster but less liquidity, 20 min bars slower but better liqudiy and even more memory hungry.

Unrelated
the new intel Intel Core i9-14900 is out
a little faster than the 13900 and the 14900 takes 192 gb or ram, while 13900 takes 128 gb
This will be the fasted GSB machine, but the dual 2699v4 / 2696v4 intel (second hand) will be best bang for buck.

As the new i9 cpu gets maxed out with so few workers, you likely dont need >128 gb of ram, but always good if you can plan to expand should you need it.

66.56 release
this has new beak even profit lock, variable points locked in profit lock, and atr stop.
Know issue that exits that are stopped have there exit name called break even stop, when its the full stop loss, not BE stop that hit
That will be fixed in next build
new eld is in c:\gsb folder and only for some users is it in c:\gsb\Supplementary Scripts (TS & MC)\
new eld also are here

Break even stop seems to make significant difference in the amount of systems that appear in fav BCD in the new long only nq 23 hour 5.5 day systems.
Doing more testing...

@Peter, seems like you are doing lots of great improvement, thanks for that... May i ask .. the new stops, are they also tested to be working in live executions, since many exit types that existed in GSB did not really work in live trading, and for example, you many times ended up with one hard stop and another vol stop .. etc.. So these ATR and Breakeven stops, are they tested also to be fully working in live execution and not placing double stops when in one position etc.. ?

@daniel
sorry for you, but this logic has not changed. I asked programmer what would be involved to centralize stop logic - and the reply was I need to think on it.
Note in current build there is a bug where all stop exits are labeled profitlock if profitlock and fixed stop is used. This is fixed in the next release, but the current logic would suit you as its one stop signal instead of 2.
Just a tiny change in the code did this. However no idea how all the other stops interact. It took so long to get profit locks, and atr stop as there was a lot of complexities involved.
While I know this is important to you, there are work arounds to this issue on MC and there are much bigger issues I need to work on that affect a lot more users. Apologies.

@Peter Many thanks for your feedback.
Ask @Randy for the exact fix for resolving the not wanted two stops in place, perhaps he can help your dev.

I am not sure I understand your correctly here, " It took so long to get profit locks, and atr stop as there was a lot of complexities involved."
Does this mean that profit lock and atr stop, is now working in terms of logic in real trading?

I did more testing.
All the stop types work, but GSB does only use a max of one of these at a time.
atr stop, atr trailing, profit lock, breakeven stop.
(You can select them all, but GA will only choose one. I want to change this so multiple can be done at once, but not sure whats involved.)

but gsb also has additional fixed stop, and all the other exit types (like secondary filter reverse & many more)

What I think your mean by your statement "Does this mean that profit lock and atr stop, is now working in terms of logic in real trading?" is

does multiple active stops held in the market work in MC live trading. Answer is likely no. TS doesnt have this issue and work around are use market if touched order
or re-code the gsb systems to have only one active stop. While I appreciate you want this feature, there are issues that are higher priority. Sorry.
You could also chase MC over this as its a feature TS has that MC doesnt.

@daniel, the build 66.55 due to a bug uses plock exit for the fixed stop as well, so that will be nice for you on mc.
fixed in the next release though. You can look at the minor code changes between the two builds

Hi Josef,

I used the ResourceManager to update GSB.
The new scripts file is in the same GSB directory.

Just checked, you are right.
Peter's new ELD does not include the function GSB_Scripts_2023_11_28.

Solution for now: create a new function with:
name = GSB_Scripts_2023_11_28
content = GSB_Scripts_2023_11_28 = 0

An easy solution is to put a comment on front of the line Value1 = GSB_Scripts_2023_11_28

Correct about the comment. This will be fixed next build. There is updated functions that are being tested by me, but not released so a comment is a good fix for now.

Build Alpha or GSB


Hello, my name is Nikos and I am new to the forum. I m not sure if this the right place for my question so I apologize in advance if it's not.

I recently ran into the concept of developing trading strategies through software like Build Alpha or GSB. I'm about to choose which one I will buy and since most people in here seem to have good experience with both of them I would like to ask your opinion.

I m mostly swing trading and I try to improve my existing systems, plus check their robustness more accurately.

I would appreciate your insights, thank you in advance for your time.

Hi Nikos, welcome to the forum.
A number of users of GSB have BA, TSL & Adaptrade builder.

I have not looked at BA for over a year, so not sure how valid my comments are. However user feed back is positive, and I cant say that about all other competitors.
GSB has multiplication of processing and walk forward via as many cloud machines as you want to have. At times there is also considerable free cloud power. (depends on my useage)
BA did not have any WF tools at all, but it has other checks to see if a system is valid.
GSB has a very well explored methodology that you can look at 1000's of systems and see what sort of setup they collectively work best on. To my knowledge no other system builder has anything like this.
BA I think is long only or short only, and not both at the same time. While im increasingly a fan of long only systems, I could also argue long / short could be more robust as you have double the amount of trades. Feedback to me is GSB systems did better out of sample, but that could be to so many factors and market conditions & other variables
Examples of systems out of sample since June 2018 is https://trademaid.info/gsbhelp/GSB_AG_swingAG101ES.html (updated this week) Regardless of what product you choose, the biggest risk to me is systems failing and or poor market conditions
