Tribonacci_RF Strategy Guide #5: How to Fine-Tune (Preserved Edition)

Black cat!!!

By攻略 #4, the “initial setup placement” is complete.

This time (攻略 #5) is about deciding what to touch without hesitation, based on the symptoms that appeared during operation (not appearing / appearing too much / erratic / not growing).

The goal is simple:

Symptoms → Cause → Where to touch (order) so you can understand it in one go.

1. The big principles of fine-tuning (rules to avoid getting lost)

Rule A: Change only one place at a time

If you touch the reference bars count / deviation pips / lot distribution / operating band at the same time, you won’t know “which one was effective.”

Make changes to only one item at a time.

Rule B: The order of touching is fixed

Fine-tuning is less likely to fail if you progress in the following order.

• Operating conditions (time of day / spread / account conditions)

• Reference bars count (size of the waves to pick up)

• Deviation pips (growth potential filter)

• Lot distribution (shape of risk and return)

Rule C: Decide the unit of comparison

It’s okay to use rough units like “2–3 days” or “until the signal appears ○ times.”

Without a unit of comparison, adjustments will go on forever.

2. First, prepare the environment (factors before parameters)

When you feel it’s “rough,” the cause is often not the parameters but the environment side.

・Indicator sudden change / week-into / thin market times → create operating band

・Spread sudden expansion → protect MaxSpreadPips

・Account conditions (stop level, etc.) → trailing may not move as expected

Before touching parameters, first fix this path for the shortest route.

3. By symptom: cause → countermeasure

3-1. When it doesn’t appear (too few signals)

Common causes

・Deviation pips too high (conditions too strict)

・Reference bars count too large (waiting for big waves reduces counts)

Recommended order of actions

Slightly lower the deviation pips (watch not to lower too much)

If still few, slightly reduce the reference bars count

Notes

Signals appearing does not mean you can win.

Also check that it isn’t leaning toward too many signals (noise).

3-2. When it appears too much (entering too much / noisy)

Common causes

・Deviation pips too low (picking up times with little growth potential)

・Reference bars count too small (picking up small waves)

Recommended order of actions

Increase deviation pips (top priority)

If still high, increase reference bars count (pick up bigger waves)

Target state

Aim for a state where signals are not always present, but appear selectively and are high quality.

3-3. When it’s rough (wins/losses are extreme / unstable)

Common causes

・Operating band is poor (indicators / thin market times / week-into)

・Spread is volatile causing trailing to be shaken

・Reference bars count too small, wave quality is unstable

Recommended order of actions

• First review time of day / currency pair / MaxSpreadPips (before parameters)

• Also check account conditions (stop level, etc.)

If it’s still rough, slightly raise the reference bars to enlarge the wave

One word

“Roughness” tends to be a sign of misalignment in the base environment.

3-4. When you win but don’t grow (low profit / not extending)

Common causes

・Deviation pips too low and many opportunities have little growth potential

・Trailing too early, ending at small profits

Recommended order of actions

• Slightly raise deviation pips (prioritize growth potential)

• Then review trailing conditions (recheck environment and spread assumptions)

4. Fine-tuning the reference bars count (Conclusion: change the size of the waves you pick up)

The reference bars count is not merely a knob to increase frequency; it changes the size of the waves you pick up (scale).

・Small reference bars → pick up small waves easily (more frequent but more noise)

・Large reference bars → center on big waves (fewer counts, more stable quality)

If unsure, fix the baseline (e.g., 120 bars) first, and adjust from the deviation pips side for safety.

5. Fine-tuning the deviation pips (Conclusion: growth potential filter)

Deviation pips act as a filter that includes only opportunities with growth potential.

・Low → too many signals / noise picks up

・High → not appearing / waits too long

・Just right → signals are selectively appearing

Adjust gradually (changing too much makes it a different thing).

6. Fine-tuning the lot distribution (last step: for advanced users)

Initially, it’s fine to keep lots distribution even (same Ratio1–5).

If you change it, decide the purpose.

・More safety-oriented → thickening the shallow ratio

・More return-oriented → thickening the deep ratio

※Changing the lot size greatly changes feel, so do not touch other items simultaneously.

Summary: Shortest-path checklist to fix

・If it’s rough, first fix operating band / spread / account conditions

・Next, reference bars count (size of waves to pick up)

・Next, deviation pips (growth potential filter)

・Last, lot distribution (adjust to goal)

Changes should be one place at a time; decide a unit of comparison (2–3 days / ○ times) and verify
