Monthly taking a hammering, back to about 3500 pips in the red..on a real account, but actual DD of the funds not even at 6% so no panicking required. Not sure if I understand the benefit of multiple baskets taking the exact same trades though (my first test of a monthly acc with 12 baskets). Next time also might try and use the vitual basket on them as well. Might try the news filter in the month ahead - as it may be a volotile month and be good to test a short term gainer plus long term play.

I don't think that the trade levels used in the multiple baskets always have as many duplicates. First month trading monthly here too on demo. Trade levels 5-10, TF, FF, FT.

I think the idea would be to multiply the stronger signals. A pair may show up on levels 8,9, and 10, but not 5,6,7. Difficult to run on US account since we have FIFO. I can't have buys and sells at the same time. If I don't close the baskets in the order they were opened, I get FIFO violations and eventually the account will be disabled. I have 3 demos running instead.

Just use a offshore account. Look at TradersWay. They have no limit on number of trades either.

Anyone else have this issue?

xmess EA disappears when you change a setting. I simply added the time to load a trade, and the entire window disappears when you save it. It did not open the trade either. It is not magic number issue, as I had loaded EA and the green box was visible. SImply changed the time setting. I have refreshed page, removed the EA and put it back on again. No window is visible. It says the weekly trade monitor is active? I tried with different indicators (fxm and ccfp)...strange.

These are monthly signals True True settings ..Signals seem accurate compared to the other settings that have baskets in DD.Maybe we can learn a thing or two from this..Look at the GBP suggested pairs and look at your charts.

Mixed feelings on this one, glad it was profitable but definitely should have widened the TP and SL. Also was not good for the monthly basket by any means. News trader seems to be absolutely killing it.

Picture was supposed to say NZD not AUD. Oops

What do these settings do in the ccfp indicator? {image}
.
I was stuck on this query for a while till I could found a post where it was clearly explained by a generous contributor and obviously
a real Trader ( whose name ..sorry I did not pinpointed- Jenbols ? ). As a "Junior" member here ( Lol ...) I can't thanks anyone , and my posts are still under manual approval ...so it might take time for my response to appear here ...( or just after another pal here takes the time to explain to all new comers here ) .... Cheers.

{quote} Can Read more page about this thread and you will find out many things ,,, but quickly lemme just say that TF/TT/FF are nothing but Curr and Ma use which people like to call it in reverse for short term convenience and because it is space saving when coding things _ So a Set as in D1/L2/TF you can also read it as: Daily, Lev 2, Current/MA-Default but if you have a set as D1/L2/FT Daily, Lev 2, Non-Curr./Bar It's always best to go to the source and call things by the right name as in Forex even commas are very important ... ans speaking about...
The higher the TradeLevel the more stringent the requirement, the less pairs that make the list.
What does affect "quality", if it can be called that, is a couple of things.
1. Use_Bar_instead_of_MA
2. MA_Method, Price, Fast, Slow
3. UseCurrent
With Use_Bar_instead_of_MA=True you are telling the indicator to use the Close of candles to determine strength, rather than a moving average
With the MA_Method, Price, Fast, and Slow Inputs u are telling the EA what type of Moving average to use for the calculation of the currency strength.
With UseCurrent=TRue you are telling the EA to use the most current bar to do the calculation of the currency strength rather than the previous bar
Folks:
Let me see if I can put some clarity to what USECURRENT does to the recommended list of pairs. For those of you that already know this please bare with me .
When we say Bar 0 we mean we are looking at the current Bar or Candle. You have done this already. IT's the current candle that is being FORMED. If I tell ya to look at bar 1 you look at the previous candle that is already formed. It's high, low, close, open are already set. Where as with bar 0 only the open is set high, low, close will not be set TILL the bar closes.
When you set the UseCurrent input to false the indicator defaults to using bars 1 and 2 to calculate currency strengths. Since we are using 10080( TF: Week) that means that the indicator uses last weeks and previous week bars to calculation the strengths. No change since both weeks are already formed. The change comes when a new week starts.
If you then set the UseCurrent input to true then u are telling the indicator to use bar 0 and bar 1 to calculate strengths. Since bar 0 is still forming that means that every tick the currency calculation will have fresh numbers, so in theory we could see different results for a currency strength which may affect the list.
But like I said before I think the numbers are so close that no change is noticed and that is why we see the same list.

{quote} You need to set LotSizing to LotsPerBalance. You have it at Fixed and that tells the EA to use 0.01 as you have it in the Lot Size Input. {quote} Please check your LotSizing. OR let me know if you are having the an issue. This feature as been tested with 0.01/10000, 0.01/50000, 0.01/100000 and has been found to work.
Hi Xmess7, Montego, Erebus,

Thanks for your support. I've practice many times and no way to get 0.01 lots.
May I simply open the signal manually?

Best regards.

The magnitude of the news and the fact that it actually traded 6 pairs, it usually gives me 4 signals or less for a filtered basket.

Was sorry to see your post about how Usa brokers do not accept hedging, but was also nice see to see how you
manage to find a way to get around it _ Honestly speaking this system works better when you have DM Monitors
to watch and trade on Live, if any, (or another demo) accordingly to try your favo strategy_
I have seen it many, many times... happening . Moreover by trading on demo and watching the pairs being taken
and using your mind to translate that bunch of pairs into a nice selection of the chosen ones, to trade on the account
you are going to use , will make you more clever, will sharpen your mind and you will understand market' s behavior
better than anyone else who just places the sets and waits , hoping for results _
One of the secrets of this business, is to turn all things that initially seem to be against us, into something profitable_
I guess your case is like a blessing in disguise and once you'll be millionaire, you'll go to Hawaii and send a postcard to FIFO
from there thanking them_
The arriving better than the arrival, the journey has just started

Hello again,

this setting (image) works for weekly basquet but not for month one, it opens the 0.01 lots (?).

Thank you Masters.
