I assume you recently placed the break lines in there and the current (and a couple of past) bar has not broken above or below the break lines.
Breaks only occur on bar close and since you generated a M15 offline chart it will be the 15 minute bar close.

You could select [touch] instead that will fire trades as soon as the price touches the level.

You went for the "sure" takeprofit i see.
Personally because of the upside room i would have followed it with a trailing.

Yep..do agree...but problem is on H1 tf you get every hour new suggestions and you do never know how long the old suggestions keep working well...

Well, 150 pips on a short M5 trade...not bad.

Will you now wait for the next H1 suggestions and trade again ?

Firstly thanks FxMadness for sharing, really good work!

I've been testing this since yesterday and I noticed the offline chart always starts with a gap between the current M15 candle and the previous one as shown in the screenshot, I'm not sure what the reason is.

Then,if you close chart,go back to fxm diff chart,remove indicator "writer" and regenerate chart you will find the gap has gone !
Well,thats the way mine is working so its a bit strange and may need fxmadness to fix something.

Not all my charts do that, just some.
Going to have a look at it.

In the mean time daily strength basket running since LO + 30 (break) with tight trailing.

You can also move your trailing line.

While you are trailing (trail is opened at a fixed distance OR on the opposite break/touch line when still not deleted) you can also select and move your trailing line closer or farther away if you think the basket needs more room at one point or the move has come to an end.

This is not an Expert Advisor so it will not do that for you, it is a visual trade manager.
You have to do the trading.

@ 1000+ pips i put in a TP at around 1200 and moved my trailing in very close.
Been enough for this basket (and i got bored).

Understood. This is very good.

How are people risk-managing this in terms of position size. I'm trying to get my head around the initial stop loss. Lets say its 10 pips, is that 10 pips of basket value ? So if I wanted to risk 2% of an account, (and lets say on a single pair that equated to 0.2 lots at 10 pip SL) would I apportion that 0.2 lots across the basket according to the guidance of FXMDiff or just set my lotsize to 0.2 lots in the EA ?

Impressive coding, thanks FXMadness !

I took a big loss this afternoon fortunately demoing...shorted on TL break after touching R1 without SL, mea culpa...... prices gapped over R1, then PC got temporarly frozen, hence I could not do anything...lesson learned. Is there reverse EA feature?
