have it already but I still want people to get used to this way of trading before sticking the EA out here, and once we start talking of EA thats the end of the thread. I hope you agree

thanks

Hi,

The #kos#14 chart does not appear under the "open offline" tab.
Can someone help me with what I've missed?

Thanks

if I had not been stopped out today at 140usd. today would have been another +600usd day by now...


kos
Sorry, maybe I missed it, but for what reason were you stopped out?


Quoting Kosomolate
nobody is asking questions, its so clear that they just pick the indicators and scripts and disappear to make money I suppose or waiting for me,

What I have is what I have given to you so far except the EA, if you have questions fire now

I am a trendline trader just mainly following 2 pairs to trade and haven't traded currency baskets before (do have prior experience in trading baskets of stocks against index options/futures). I really like this view and hope/think that I am learning something new here regarding my Fx trading. All things explained here by you are clear for now (except the stoploss you took), so no questions to ask for now.

Thanks for sharing and getting my trading brain in an extra/new thinking modus again.

Have you noticed if there are less wipsaws (opposite signals) trading a basket versus one pair like the EUR/USD using the same template/rules? I presume this is the main reasoning to trade in this way.

I still reverse the CHF pairs (GBPCHF, USDCHF) except some times like this morning when I feel lazy to do it, and it would cost me something. But its not always that the CHF pairs are the party spoilers sometimes if I sell and the chart is buy, I would observe which one is going positive instead of minus, then I close the profit and reverse them.

yes I trade it on EU and other pairs but with different settings of the HAS and its a trend catcher, though with an EA.

thanks for helping out answer the questions


kos
Hey Kos,

Then would it be wise to put sell instead of buy in the Buyall Script and vis versa for the sell script?

Thanks,

D

Good to go on my small live account. Are there entry rules for opening positions if the intial entry is missed or should we just wait for the opposite signal?

The reason I was stopped out was that I wanted to test the 2proctectProfitEA for the micro account forgetting that I was trading 0.10 and as soon as I plugged it to another chart on the classic account, you know the calculations are different, then it saw more that enough profit and just closed the buy basket off.

the stoploss is 40pips x 14 pairs = 560 pips. but the SL is not physical on each pairs but the move of all of them together.

Yes, the one I made alert for kept sounding every tick as HAS is changing colour and it was annoying. and the one that was working perfectly I cant find, so if anyone can do it without altering the way its working, do it and throw it out here for us.

ensure GC and UC are in your market watch list of pairs, I dont know of any broker that does not offer them.
