{quote} Thanks for the vouch!. As kos has highlighted with the black boxes, consecutive red and green XO is killing some of the profit. The pattern is pipe up pipe down bar formations where the open and close are near opposite for consecutive bars, perhaps a filter needs applying eg, avoiding inside bar entries or avoiding bars that are inside the last two bars etc...
Excellent work!
Howver, I have a request, one of XO's powers is the ability to spot changes, thus I request from you to make the indicator work on the first bar close xo color change and not wait for 2 bars confirmation, thank you!

i have been proving the !TLE of benwillus ( http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...70#post6748170) and it have some aspects to change:

http://i42.tinypic.com/121cryb.jpg

- WRONG when u are in a long (or short), the ea close the order when touch again the cloud... and when it comes out in the same place,, it open a new order.

-------- The best mode is that the price still running the trade, and only close the current trade if EMA(2) close the cloud for the other side. With this mode, we can trade in lower timeframes with "few" entries.

-When cloud is very narrow and if the price moves very fastly crossing the cloud, the ea dont change the type of the trade (buy to sell or vice versa)

i asked to george to change this aspect of the ea but this weekend he is going to be out with wife.

patience!

good weekend comrades!

The XO setting optimizer works on OPEN on second bar , otherwise it would "repaint" entry signals. First bar would falsely indicate better results because it would seem like it could see into the future on how a bar can close - hope this makes sense

Yes that is working for the closing of the trades but as for opening the new ones it is opening on the close of the 2nd bar (see origin of triangles)

I meant it the other way round, new trades at the open of 2nd bar, old trades closed at close of 2nd bar (these 2 should happen at the same pip)

Quoting Kosomolate
the week has been very good, especially for those doing M5 & M15 But for XO H4 it started great but the period in the black boxes spoilt the show. The account simply did not go anywhere this week. went up and back down but I am happy it did not end in RED kos {image}

This gave me an idea....

AVOIDING WHIPSAW PIPE UP PIPE DOWN

I have modified the XO indicator to look back last four bars before painting an opposite signal this should explain everything - same settings should be used in this example it is 14 pairs with 800 settings. THe optimizer calculated this would work better overall in data I used
Try it out it might work better for those chart addicts on the m5 and m15 - I dont have much time - I work 12 hours on my other job!

I am sorry to bother but still the same issue, the triangles are not being closed/opened at the same pip for the same bar, check the triangles origin
See the screenshot, the both should be opened/closed at the top of the bar

New xo is not designed to be out on a chart it's just used by the xo optimiser like the TLE for EAs
just needs to be in indicator folder for xo optimiser to work

That's turned out to be true. The basket is no where to go for such a long time on this Friday afternoon. Used these hours reading a lot on HAS indicator that I am using. Have a good weekend FxOptimu$ {image}
Hi FX optimus or any Senior Member here.

I have spent the weekend setting up my charts and reading through the Thread almost 100 pages now. The issue I have right now is probably a basic question.

I have the MPBM, the T101 Basket Trader v2.3 and also the i-profittracker. What I want to be able to do is to sett a Visual TP and Visual SL line on the basket chart. As you would in a single pair chart. I have played around with the tools I mentioned above and just don't reacall which of the EA's would do that for you. I am currently in demo and trading 14 pairs presently. I know this is probably a basic question for such a long thread but I just need few pointers. I have pm'd one or two people here but seems they are just too busy so have to ask here. My Current broker is FX Clearing. Thanks in advance.

I'm new here but still the T101v2.3EA does this for me, it depends on the offline chart and the broker 4-5 digits if you see the line straight away or if you have to reduce/increase the decimals to get a 200 pips when 20 is in your T101v23 EA settings,,
the default value is working fine for me on the offline chart done with the basketv8
but if i use basketv6 to generate my offline charts on c5 I have to increase a decimal to get to my (200points SL for small timeframe an 5pairs) for example.
You can't change all the settings after the EA is live, and you won't see the Visual TP SL before the EA is live and has bought/sold a first basket trade neither!
Activate the SL and the TP and activate it as well the visual, see pics and set the value from 2 to 56 or 560 ex.g. depending on your offlinecharts and brokers and time frame.

as I'm newbie to this, I let it there and hope this will help you out at first.. good testing sharemaster

MPBM is meant for managing the orders placed manually using the script. Set the SL and TP true in T101 ea. As soon as the orders picked up by the ea you will see the physical stop loss and take profit lines. Don't depend on the ea. Just trade manually to understand the system better. Even if you use the ea you need to monitor the trade manually to optimise the profit.

There was a buy entry this morning. Considering the down trend in H4 chart I preferred a sell entry. I expected the basket to come down after the upward correction. But it has moved up considerably. I am waiting for the Sell opportunity. The basket is testing around the daily pivot and the weekly pivot. May be this buy could be a trend reversal. If that happens it is a missed opportunity. It is always better to follow the rules.

Hi GVC

How are you? Most of my orders are manual. When the basket has sufficiently moved I just can't move away from the system. I had to keep an eye on the basket to either exit or close at BE. As I requested earlier I require a physical stop or BE value stop. can this be incorporated in the existing order script itself? Please help me out.

Regards
FxOptimu$
