{quote} fxentropy, i see your point, but you missed mine. i thought the underlying idea of the V basket is to avoid as much dd as possible. so if the v basket goes into dd and keeps on going further and further, and subsequently not trigger the real basket till its reversed 150 pips that would be nice as heck. so its not catching it at minus 300, the idea being is to catch it from the reversal point, = lowest point reached plus 150 pips. that would require the ea to log the pips going into dd and then enter the real basket from the lowest point...
but...look at it this way: if you reach -300 then -800 then -1500 >>> then -150 for almost sure you'll get -800 again...as -150 will act as resistance

{quote} .
When loading the Ea beta 16 it opens straight away
so i deleted deleted all other Ea's / Deleted Gv / Files and all traces
and loaded it and it opened again ... It was only after i changed the Magic to 15 higher number
than all the magic who were there before who opened and no problem all cool....
So i did the same on another platform diff broker and before doing that i resettled all
so clean charts no Ea's ... Loaded the B16 and it said magic 1 already in use so i went check
the debug log and it read removed, but Ea was not removed it stayed there ///
I think this was happening in Beta 10 or 12 cant recall well now, and then you solved the problem ...
It looks like the Ea even it remember old magics ... even tho all deleted_ What can it possibly be ?
Plss, could you pls use the technical language if you try to explain so i know .. Thanx
I am aware that you said few post ago that the Ea now is almost "thinking" and remembering
so I really hope it does not remember the last time i shouted at him ?
Thanx for your effort

{quote} got the point now... but...look at it this way: if you reach -300 then -800 then -1500 >>> then -150 for almost sure you'll get -800 again...as -150 will act as resistance
i might be wrong in my thinking, but my idea was that a monthly basket if is on the wrong track and goes south wont trigger the real basket.
the pip gain from the lowest point of course needs to be determined.
maybe somebody having experience using v baskets can chime in and let us all know if my thought process has any validity, as i said mainly for monthly baskets.

Btw are people planning on doing tomorrow? Not trading at all or just avoiding jpy pairs?
the trade for tomorrow ,, perhaps xmess EA one day will have that option too
to exclude from Ccfp-df list all "Currency" we not interested in when there are special occasion
holidays and so on ... if he does it by pairs 'll be too many Rows, but by Currency only 2/3 more Rows (dropdown) + the ======
Eventually as a Monday i won't do LIVE, and will Demo both cases
1- for EA to trade as normal with all pairs she wants to take (inc. Jpy pairs)
2- I will open the EA connected to the Dashboard Eax or DB_Csm and exclude the Jpy pairs so i will know what would have happened if ....
Now that i think we also got another forgotten DashB that could do the same operation and that is the DB_Ccfp proposed
by our smart Genius, the young FxMadness some time ago

Guys, is there a way to disable jpy trades with one setting rather than going through each ccfp variation individually. If you're testing a large number of baskets, this can be a nuisance as you can imagine...
It takes a lot for me to IGNORE you, but you can try.

{quote} Just let the trades open as normal, and if they don't look good, click to close!
Take care,
