CCFp weekly signals (set and forget basket trading)

Hi

I'm new to the thread (but not trading) and trying to get my head around working with xmess7's EA. Currently v37.8_beta_6. Had a few questions when playing around with this. I've setup the EA for the weekly basket setup:
1) The EA is up and running (smiley face on EA corner). If I turn on the EA after the Monday midnight start, the EA didnt open up the basket so I had to do it manually. Is this expected?
2) For some strange reason, ALL my trades were closed by the EA a few hours later where I'm pretty certain most of them did not hit TP or SL (500 TP, 200 SL). Is this expected? I manually tried this again last night. I opened a basket at 8pm GMT and then at 2am GMT, they were all closed by the EA.
3) If orders are closed (correctly by EA), will the EA ever open up a new basket in that same week?
Thanks

Some records of baskets.

All baskets are opened at the beginning of the day and closed at the end of the day.

Thanks a lot.

Dear SIRS, you are very happy to see a good strategy, but I am not very good at foreign languages. I am very slow in learning. Can I have a tutorial or video to help?

A bit of satisfaction from classic Weekly setup, only changes with respect to the original are to run it at 09:05 GMT on Tuesday. {image}
Show how you set your percent (%) SL & TP in input with image, please.

not 100%, but could be a font issue. Download the fonts from the link:

Hi Gaga, yes trades change at every refresh of the CCFp indicator. No, you don't have to close them! In weekly mode you must wait for either TP or SL or set closing time on Friday. But if you have set your TP to 10% and you're at +9.9% you can decide to close the basket manually.

Best regards,
Bubincka

results for this week's single basket trading. baskets opened tuesday 10am GMT. both closed just after midday today. Unfortunately the TF basket hit stop loss this week. You can't win them all

I've observed there's always huge momentum in a positive direction on wednesdays. Maybe opening on a wednesday might be interesting.....ahhh tons more testing needed

see you next week

maybe you can just lower you TP and SL and only trade on Monday and Tuesday since most of the HIN comes on Wednesday's, Thursday's and Friday's. This will, for the most part, keep you away from a majority of the HIN.

Some records of baskets.

Some have failed.

Lately even after my pc restarts, the results of the baskets are still there.

Anyone know if there is any configuration for this?

Cheers.

I posted above about my basket closing literally hours after opening on Mon without hitting TP or SL. Also attached my settings. Can you help? Is it expected to close that early?

according to my experience, i was in loss and high impact news was comming, it changed the direction of the trades and i went in profit.. it happened a couple of times, ... while when am in profit and high impact news is comming up, i close the trades and take the profit cuz i dont want to be greedy!!
