Hi everybody!!! This is my first post in this forum (in any forum I think!!). I only collect information and I dont like to engage with anything. But here I couldnt resist myself.

I was in forex a long time ago. I came into forex again some months ago. Recently I came to know about Dashboard trading and Basket trading. Now I am stuck to this CCFp-Diff basket trading.

I thought it is a myth that profitable traders in forex will ever speak in public. But it seems to me that in here, there are many profitable traders who are speaking what is in their mind. I personally feel honored for their dedication.

I read almost the entire thread in last week and came to know about every single thing without asking a single question. So, I would like to thank from my heart to everybody in this thread (and also some others from other threads) specially Forexpinbar, Husky77, jenbols, xmess7, Erebus, firewight, Catalin68, Fxentropy and many more I write many EAs before but concluded that making a consistent profitable EA is not my job (and I think its also a myth). So, I am now trying this CCFp with Basket.

At first: About some problem:

My VPS is heavily loaded with EAs. Around 30-50% processor is being used all the time. But when I am connected there is a process called Desktop Window Manager (DWM) uses the processor a lot. (Tip: Minimizing all the windows will keep the DWM at 0 - 1%). So, the problem is some of my basket EAs stuck and freezes until I manually do something. I am running about 17 baskets. When any EA stuck, it gives error: Cannot set timer (1) like the following image.

I am using xm7_ccfp_Wkly_TradeMonitor_v37.7.4. When this happen, the EA does nothing wherever the open positions go. A good indication of this is the clock on the EA freezes. Every now and then I have to check and reload the EA to continue. I noticed that when the processor is busy (almost 90%) this happens frequently. And also just after open all positions or close all positions in the basket. When this happens on one basket, other baskets are running good. If you guys are familiar with this problem and know the solution, please help me.

Now about my settings:

Currently I am testing the following 17 basket settings. All my mentioned times are in GMT. Open time: nearly 0700 0730. Basket SL: -200pips. TP: start locking from 100pips at 50% with 10pips step. When a basket is closed at TP or SL, I opened another one at same settings. Just to figure out settings as I am new with CCFp.

101 -> H4/D1, L1, TF, 3-5
102 -> H4/D1, L1, FF, 3-5
103 -> H4/D1, L1, TF, 1-2
104 -> H4/D1, L1, FF, 1-2
105 -> H4/D1, L1, FT
106 -> D1, L2, TF, 3-5
107 -> D1, L2, FF, 3-5
108 -> D1, L2, TF, 5-12
109 -> D1, L2, FF, 5-12
110 -> D1, L2, FT
111 -> D1/W1, L1, TF, 3-5
112 -> D1/W1, L1, FT
113 -> W1, L2, TF, 3-5
114 -> W1, L2, FF, 3-5
115 -> W1, L2, TF, 5-12
116 -> W1, L2, FF, 5-12
117 -> W1, L2, FT

I will try to post the results in future.

Another question... Is there any EA which uses this CCFp-Diff indicator so that I can back test in Strategy Tester??? As this do not deal with real time news...

Thanks to everybody...

Tried something different today.
Kind of "dynamic pool of trades for profit", the term "basket" would be wrong here because trades are entered and added individual on the signals.
This is of course TT or TF.

It seems there is something special about the 1st trading day of the month..I maybe be wrong but from little observation and tests that i run on the 1s trading day of May and June , results are very impressive..On 2nd May which was the first trading day of May , I opened a multiple basket with the monthly(43200) signals and in about 3 days i made a whooping 19000 pips .Here is the link https://www.forexfactory.com/showthr...36#post9831836
to the basket that was opened on 2nd May 2017 which was the first trading day in May.....I was curious so I decided to run another test on the first trading day of every month since May and keep records for better confirmation of this scenario..I opened a multiple monthly basket on 1st June which is first trading day of June and here is my result.Very impressive I must say..I dont think it is a coincidence that the monthly signals opened on the 1st trading day of the month performs so well.I think there is more to it than meets the eyes...I would need your expert opinions on this observation ladies and gentlemen..Happy weekend All..

{quote} The Basket was opened Today FRI .... 0712 gmt / 0812 Lon time Normally i know the Fxpinbar Rule say if you open a Basket On Monday (Weekly mode and your stop loss is being hit) then dont open anymore baskets for the rest of the week ... But generally what i do is if i open a Basket weekly mode, on Monday and then by chance it is closed same day or Tue ,,, then what i do ? I get bored if i don't watch Baskets running , so i open another one ... But, but need to see the market how fast it is ... etc ,,, then some luck is always cool to have...

That is not so strange.
A lot of institutional traders/companies unwind their positions at the end of the ledger day/week/month just to take new positions for the next.
If you are trading long term and using something like ccfp get in on the second day and get out before the last.
Longer term trend (for us) will show on the second day of trading.
Of course anomalies like war or lately Trump can mess things up.

{quote} erebus, i have been noticing over the years as well, broker to broker is always hard if not impossible to match results, with identical settings. what i do is run whatever runs good and copy to live from that demo. same broker demo often matches live, like axi for sure does that matches very nicely for me. others i dont know. also my ic demo seems close to my live as well. data feeds all across brokers are slightly different thats where this comes from, nothing we can do.
That's about the conclusion that I came too, just the different price ticks might be just off a few pips and as you rightly said, nothing we can do about it

thanks for reply, have a great weekend
It takes a lot for me to IGNORE you, but you can try.

{quote}I have been following the thread for some time, and i have watched all posts especially the photos and i think traders here almost all agree that they don't want use TT anymore ? but as usual i might be wrong and should reconsider it Reaso i use the TT and FT is only when i play Higher levels 2/3/4 because on TF and FF there are no pairs to display or only 1 ... Did you get good results with that ?
as you said earlier that most ppl have been consistent with good results with FF and TF. i have only few good results with FT and TT but not consistent enough to make it for my daily trade. but i still use it in demo and try to tweak around with it. but yes i have to agree with you using only FF and TF for daily trade ...

Consistency i love this worD
Yes i see that now is like the "Big Picture" is taking shape ....
and people start to see something in common which was not possible to see before
I mean about people agreeing on what is the best strategy with various Tf Ft.... being used and so on ...

Consistency for me also means the Misfortune of having also 3 days in a row at a loss and then recovering
everything in the end ... and if you lost average 0f lets say 100-(200)-300 per basket on a 4 basket for 3 days 800x3= -2400
and then on a Thursday make only few hundreds and you still far away from recovery .... but when Friday comes (or other day)
and you make +2500 like it happened to me yesterday .. then i see consistency too _

I think my Divorce from TT is now sure for daily and Weekly Tfms but of course i will be using it
on smaller Tfms for scalping .. that is if i got some spare time ... but,,, mhmhm one 5(*) coder named HP once told me
not to keep on using Smaller Tfms and i followed what he said and now i glad i listened to him_
Brain.Boss another Top Master Coder also told me about waves and cycles and the equation about speed/momentum...

So all this was to say that .. I believe this system works well, and also lock steps do the job too , however
what i am still missing and still experiencing is a way to find out when the market is in a trending day
because the Ccfp-work suggested pairs work well with strong market and "depending" on the setting FT... FF etc ...
I m sure everyone has a way to find out what the market feels like today, and experience will probably give us a better feel of it ..
Also one more things is that ,,, even the best most profitable system in the hands of the impatient and the careless
who want only miracles without hard work, it is useless ,,, so ok we work hard eheh ...
Have a nice day and thanx for contribution ...

That is what I think of too.
But what about DD of May and this month for the first day? Huge drops?? Or less than 100 pips each?

It all depends on your view for trading... Would you run a basket strategy on NFP day? How about FOMC? Maybe the last day of the month?

Hello Everyone. I am back home and will be making updates to correct some of the discrepancies that have been reported.

For now I recommend not to use the latest version (v37.7.4).
The latest version did fixed a problem but it also introduced another problem. Namely not opening trades automatically or when ti does open trades it would close them immediately.

For those of you that are trading with a small number of baskets use the previous version (v37.7.3) for now.

As for the latest version (v37.7.4)
If you know how to handle the global variables and MT4 memory stuff, you should be able to control the operation of the latest version.

Otherwise I will be updating the EA to fix this issue. I am waiting for the market to open so I can conduct tests. It should not take long to get this fixed.
