{quote} reinerh: That is an issue I was not aware of. The local time on your machine usually does not change (unless DST or the BST). So I wrote the EA to check the GMTshift once a week instead of every tick. Since your vps changes thee local time on the vps machine this will be an issue as the offset will not be looked at until the start of the week and that will mess up the hours you input into the EA. {quote} bae67: Man...

I had some free time this weekend and downloaded all the (16 versions?) of FXM__Diff3.ex4 that FXMadness has posted. I tried them one by one on both live accounts. Nothing worked. I just have to wait for the brokers to see what they can do. Ten files in this post and six in the next one.

UPDATE Beta 31

xm7_Ccfp_Wkly_TradeMonitor_v37.7.8_beta_31.ex4

Folks:
It was reported that the discrete hours were not operating properly. The EA would open trades at the hours the user placed ok, but when then it did not close the trades at the hours the user had indicated. This beta 31 contains this fix. The upgrade has been tested and it worked. I did not however test it for the new day.. according to the code the EA should recognize that it is a new day and know which is the first hour to open a basket.

THe test was conducted by setting up the EA to open (testing only) a basket at the following hours:
GMTOpenHour=01:26,01:30,01:33,01:35
and then close the basket at the respective close hours
GMTDailyCloseHour=01:27,01:31,01:34,01:36

This features will work in DAily or Weekly Modes only.

See the results and compare. It was a success (you need to read from bottom up):

I guess that is the only option i haven;t tried yet and should do that on Monday ...
doesn't matter type of market just to see if these blessed hours are working nicely_
And Jess is it max 3 inputs for Open/Close per day right ?

Little Doubt ...
Placing the hours in the Input [*Open ("HH.mm" or HH:mm-HH.mm____mm...")]
If i have this
07:00-07:10,08:00-08:15,09:00-09:15
do you mean 07:00(open) 07:10(close), 8am(open)8:15(close) ....... open/close open/close in a row ?
or shall we write the open top and close at bottom ?
in the input [HOur to close Basket ("HH.mm" or HH:mm-HH.mm____mm...")"-"]

Thank you for clarifying, lol so exciting when trying to get into a mind of a Coder

{quote} Thanks Embry1, yeah this week had been good but not all weeks have. Last week was a loser for my weekly baskets but I've recovered this week. I'm using the FXM indie for most of my baskets now, especially as FxMadness has fixed the code error for the CCFp MA calculation. Whats strange is that one of my weekly tests using the FXM indie with CCFp, Strength and EQB filter is in a DD. It went as high as 700+ pips and as low as -1500 DD and is now floating on around -250 pips, so not all fared well, and the same basket hit 2700+ last week, so...
Wow, when you open the weekly basket?
I also use fxm combo from ccfp, strength and eqb filter but the result was exact opposite to yours. I opened two hours after LO.

I would think that an ATR value would be a better way to go. You never know how many pairs will be traded so one day 500 pips may be good TP and the next day way too high for TP. Some pairs move more than others also. Just a thought.

{quote} Thank you so much for fixing all the bugs I reported. I have messaged you regarding some more. Now the following is for the community in general. I have been testing this EA for the past 1 month. I used it with ProfitLock, which works quite brilliantly. But on certain days I am noticing a pattern. On multiple occassions some of my baskets crossed 600 pips and then came down drastically and hit the ProfitLock. I had set ProfitLock percentage at 50%. As a result those 600 pip baskets closed at around 300 pips, resulting in missing out another...

Jens:
Looking at the first image no, that is not the intend for the hours. There are only 3 ways to enter openHours or CloseHours.
1. Single Hour: HH:mm
2. As a range: HH1:mm-HH2:mm
3. As discrete (separate) hours: HH1:mm,HH2:mm,HH3:mm,HH4,mm ... etc etc.. (you can enter any number of hours, the limit being the END OF DAY or 23:59)
(#3 is just as u describe in the second image)

So yer second image is the correct what to enter both Open and Close Discrete Hours.

You don't need to necessarily add discrete Close Hours. You can leave the CloseDailyHour to one single hour. Just make sure that this hour is greater than the open ones. Otherwise the EA will open a basket at a certain hour and since the close hour is not greater it will just keep it open until either TP/SL or manual closing.

The discrete hours were intended for folks that use News Trading. This way they can set the hours ahead of time and just let hte EA do that for them,
In addition (I don't know why you would want this) they requested that they can do the same with separate or discrete closing hours. So hence I added the capability to the CloseHours inputs.

The discrete open/close hours will only work for the Daily and Weekly Modes. On Daily mode the Ea will each day try to open or close baskets at the hours that are placed by the user. On Weekly it will only do this for that one day the user picks.

Yeah I agree with you, 500-600 pips is the realistic tp in these days. And i guess i was not the only one who had max pips of 500 pips but closed around 300 pips lol.

But find the best setting for the tp and sl based on ATR is quite tricky. Seems like most of the pairs only reaxh around 0.5 daily ATR recently CMIIW

{quote}2. Brokers with suffixes with "_" Bae67 you can test this right now. Set the PrintDebugInfo=true and run the EA (either beta or v37.7.7) you will see in the Expert Log a list of pairs with their suffixes. You should now see pairs like EURUSD_, AUDUSD_, GBPUSD_, etc etc in that list. Let me know if you don't. As always the updated beta and stable version are in http://xm7.info/ea/ccfp_weekly/

Your EA works flawlessly with this brokers that uses EURUSD_ Thanks.

It won't affect the EA performance, you will just have slightly larger log files.

Hey guys, just wanna check if it's normal to only have 9 pairs from the CCFP?

The EA is up and running now but also only opened the said 9 pairs.

Running on CCFP 2.0(1)
