{quote}So 4 baskets- Basket 1R1 and Basket 1F1 opens at 3:45 and Basket 1R2 and 1F2 opens at 10:00. The forward baskets close at 22:50 and the Reverse baskets close at 17:30. That's just that the reverse trades generally peaked at that time. Settings are below: Basket 1F1: VB:+225 TP:200 SL:-250 Basket 1R1: VB:+100 TP:220 SL:-200 Basket 1F2: VB:+150 TP:250 SL:-150 Basket 1R2: VB:+40 TP:500 SL:-250 Cheers David
Hi 123david321,
Are you using 43200 FT for these baskets?
Thanks,

Scali

{quote} Montego, that is flaming awesome. Great for us who have been dabbling with the system, but still trying to keep up. Now, your template loads all the indicators and the beta xmes correct on my machine. When it comes to it starting on the first day of the month or this week etc, what do we need to do to it? or will this load automatically? I have put it on a cent account with 2800 in real money (hardly any risk with a cent account), so be interesting to see how this goes and now I can keep everyone updated as well.
Hi Jared glad i could help, open the ea and in the input settings about 7 settings down it says day of month to open, as tuesday is the first of the month change it from monday untill tuesday the rest is all sett up and it should open the baskets at 00.10 gmt which is 1.10 am in the uk.
WORD OF WARNING- these baskets can go into 10,000 pips draw down before they turn around the average is about 4,750 pips so you need 10,000 cents which is 100 dollars minimum.
with 2800 you will probably get a margin call, you might not if your really really really lucky, i would personally trade Demo on this, and that was my intention when i put the template up, for new people to Demo it, but thats upto you, but dont say i didnt warn you, good luck

Hello Montego,

Embry1, mrdfx or other seniors who have been trading the news setting by embry1, Could I trouble you all about a query that i have with the setting? The setting for the news trade is 60 TT L1 1/2. So this means that it is set at 60 min, level 1, T = use current, T= use bar instead of MA, 1/2=fast MA set to 1 and slow MA set to 2 right? But since we are using bar instead of MA why do we need to change the slow and fast MA setting? Or did i interpret the setting wrongly? Thanks for any information in advance.
I don't edit the MA settings as we set it to TT so it doesn't matter what MA it is. I'm not sure why Embry1 changes his but I leave mine as is and its all good to me.

To the guys that have been testing the monthly strategy using the TF, FF, FT settings, have you monitored which had the most DD throughout the month?

I have suspicions that the FT setting will have a higher DD than the other two and perhaps excluding the FT baskets from the test it might reduce the overall DD.

I could be wrong but this is my theory so perhaps those that have run the monthly baskets this month can see which setting (TF, FF, FT) had the biggest DD?

{quote} I'll look into that. There have been a couple of others that have pointed that out and I think it is valid since it cuts down on the number of trades that are being taken.
I agree. For example, on the monthly basket, the ea takes the trades on the 1st of the month (as an example) and basically just manages the trades from thereon. And there are many duplicate trades if one has many ccfp indicators on the same chart (ie with different trade levels, timeframes, etc). Therefore, if your ea can cut the # of trades down by combining trades to be taken (ie 3 buy EURUSD @ 0.01 lot = 1 buy EURUSD @ 0.03 lot) instead that would be much better.

Thank you!

{quote} Thanks for posting your monthly results, can I ask did you keep track of which baskets had the highest DD between the TF, FF, FT settings?
The total max DD is almost 4000 pips . I use multiple ccfp in one chart, so I don't know the single TF/FF/FT DD value...

{quote} That's why i do not use version numbers anymore. FXM will just be backwards compatible but it saves you all the time to change templates and profiles. Nothing against xmess7 but if i always download his latest beta and rename it to XM7.ex4 before i put it in the experts folder. Not going to change 29+ templates, i am not that stupid.
Hi FxMadness. Thanks to you and all the contributors to this interesting thread.
I agree 100% that having versioning in the file name complicates the upgrade to a new version but still feel that versioning is important.
MQL provides the #property version "x.yy" property which can be used for versioning while retaining the same file name.
This version is displayed in the "About" tab if one opens the indicator in MetaTrader and provides a convenient means of referring unambiguously to a specific version.
This should help when referring to a specific issue whether suspected bug or improvement suggestion.
Maybe you are aware of this and have decided for a specific reason not to utilize this functionality. It certainly remains your prerogative!

Just a thought!
Best regards and thank you to all!
Nico

What it really does is help with broker limitations. Use of margin is not affected nor is spread cost (it there is a spread) whether you have 1 or 10 trades of same pair. So it's mainly to try to handle broker limit on number of trades.

I will add : depends on Account Leverage 1/1000 1/500 1/400 should be fine , also depends on Broker's rules for Margin Call or Stop Out. I am wrong ?

Beta 23 and update to v37.7.7

http://xm7.info/ea/ccfp_weekly/

The EA should now add up any duplicate entries. so instead of having 3 Buy EURUSD at 0.1 lots you should see 1 Buy EURUSD at 0.3 lots
Please check on demo before using live.
