So for all the monthly testers hows your baskets looking as we approach the last day? Mine does is not faring well at all and it does not look like it's coming back before month end. Well at least now I know that this setting doesn't work lol.

monthly basket, looks like it will end at lowest point.
Nothing unusual, like any other trade bad trades (in this case months) will happen.

Persistence will get it. Consistency will keep it.

Monthly is in DD again. Low point was 7000 pips in DD and max gain was also 7000 pips around mid month. This has been the absolute worst week for weekly baskets so far.

And what stopped you closing out mid month @ +7000 pips ?
Greed ?

That, and just testing purposes lol. No need to close it out really, that was my first monthly test ever so I just wanted to stretch the limits.

Mine had been swinging all over this week. It came back to -1000 and I thought there might be hope, but then it dropped down to -7000. The highest DD this month was during the 2nd week I think when it hit -13000. I've made some changes to this basket which I hope will have a positive result next month.

I run a "reduced" 3 baskets Monthly setting in the sense that I use only TL = 2 along with TF, FT, FF to reduce the DD I can tolerate.
Mine closed some days ago after profit lock kicked in. Considering it is August and my first try i'm satisfied.

The gains and the DD are almost the same. Just like flipping a coin, very interesting. A sign of market moving sideways?

I will run the same setup in September, starting next Monday the 4th because tomorrow it's Friday and there are too many red news release.

As for the weekly, I'm using classic xmess7 setup I'm down -3.70%, but there's still time to recover.

Is anybody else trading the weekly setup or it has been abandoned ?

Best regards,
Bubincka

I was trading the weekly Xmess7 EA, I started on Tuesday but I got stopped out on the same day already. It could be the sudden rocket launch of North Korea, but it could be that we have a bad week. It seems that if I started on Monday I could have profit locked some of the profits, but my usual set up is to start on Tuesday as I have the feeling that most of the time Monday's will get me in big DD which will be recovered on Tuesday.

I am also preparing to start trading monthly signals in September. Most likely also on Monday as well, but with L2/5/7/10 on the GVC dashboard.

@xmess7 attention:

Hi jess I'd like to signal that today I closely monitored Virtual Basket feature on beta_43 and it didn't work at all-

The EA opened trades at scheduled time, 07:09 GMT, regardless of any upper trigger level (I set it to 15 pips) and after that on the display it appeared 23775 value as Highest pip gain.

Bubincka

Yes I experienced the same thing with mine. The basket triggered without the VB and went straight to SL.

Being different baskets mine managed to close at +3% after ProfitLock. But results here don't matter at all, since at least I'm on demo- What is far more important is to have a stable version of the EA to trade it live. We all trust Xmess7 to deliver it!

Sorry, what I was trying to say (and I was not clear) is that maybe the market is no longer trending and is ranging that's why many monthly and weekly basket are failing.

In a ranging market you cannot trade long timeframes. You can, however, trade the ranging market in short timeframes and take advantage of its daily ups and downs. That is one of the advantages of short term vs long term trading. You can trade any market in short term (trending and ranging) but you can only tarde long term in trending market.

OK, now i fully get your point.
Basically i'm trying to manage two separate accounts, one for monthly & weekly and another for fifo trading.

In two or three months hopefully i'll have enough data to decide if proceed to trade this systems live.

Almost all my short term (mainly 1H) trades close with 50+ pips,; I have had very few losers. But at the same time I see alot of monthly and weekly trades (not mine) are yoyoing up and down. That was something that made me think if the market is no longer trending and has entered a ranging period.
