Pipster, you will please give a first try to the Xm7 EA which is quite straight forward ..before playing with the matchbox and burn your fingers messing up ...listen to me.

{quote} yes i have been testing the basket between FF and TF for quite some time. I also have tested the standard 3-5 and 5-12 MA for FF and TF. then i drop the 5-12 MA and stick with the original 3-5 MA settings. testing too much settings confuses me at times which one should i use. so after going live, i started to stick with FF. TF is also comparably good from what i observed from my demo. lets say for this week. i can say FF and TF perform almost the same according from my observation of demo. for previous 2 weeks, the week that I used TF.....
Ever thought about to reverse all trades once hit SL? As on Wednesday and Thursday it hit SL and the potential loss went up to over 1000 pips. If in this case you would have traded the opposite of the suggestions you would have potentially gained 200 pips instead of losing 200 pips (assume you take TP of 400 pips and SL of 200 pips). I will try to keep track of this starting next week, just to see whether this is profitable.

I am not sure whether the EA supports this kind of trading, I guess we somehow need to do this manually.

i do think the EA supports this function. the normal is after VB is hit (either upper or lower) then basket open according to trade suggestion.

you might need to open a basket with reverse trade instructions for that particular day
plus VB lower limit lets say -200 or -300 to open the reverse basket. i have yet to test this function

this event is usually rare... only on red news such as interest rate, NFP with really shocking results

but yes.. your approach is very viable

I only saw it for Wednesday and Thursday, but this week the trading pairs were quite GBP heavy together with some high impact news. So there is a big chance that it is all coincidence. Still I think it is worth to check if my strategy can work or not.

results for October trade
result from trade report 398 pips .
result from broker email 466 dollars

okay. for october I haven't been that consistent because of the 3rd week I switched from to TF and resulted in loss for that week. Would have pocketed some profit if I stayed on FF. nevertheless the results for october is still positive.
I get a different calculation from the trade report compare to the email report received from the broker.

result from week 44 ( oct 30 - nov 3 )
-168 dollar / -200 pips

resulted in a loss. I saw ppwest resulted in a more favorable result (breakeven). may be that depends on the EA to execute orders to the broker and server connection during thursday massive drop i guess. different broker might give different results

my results for this week only.
something I only just noticed. (complete mistake on my part)
Last 3 months i had been testing a level 1 setup.I then removed all the bad performing pairs.So ive been running your setup (Minigan's) with the bad pairs removed.
Thats why I have different results to others.I am going to leave it as it is and see how it compares over the next few weeks.
I also ran basket today (friday) purely because basket was gbp heavy and yesterday gbp news bashed basket.We were due a retrace which came today,so closed out for 200pips before usd news.

My broker is XM and I run MT4 on a dedicated server so this maybe the difference.

very good results i may say...
btw, how do you determine which pair is considered bad performing? it would be a good input for future testing
i see you use level 3 and resulted in 7 pair suggested from the indicator.

because i had 3 months of testing at level 1,I used tradereport_compact to display all the trades for the said time period.
A few of the pairs had very very red balances,so I removed those pairs and kept the green ones.
I was running Tokyo open and London open and the worst pairs differed. The ones with * are the ones that appeared in both lists. (please note this was only my findings on the setup i was running so may not be relevant now but lets see.)

Tokyo open worst pairs.
nzdchf
audnzd
euraud*
audcad
gbpjpy*
chfjpy
gbpusd
audchf*

London worst pairs (pairs im not trading at the moment by error)
audchf
euraud
eurnzd
usdchf
eurusd
eurgbp
gbpjpy

Try adding a 30 pip VB, this has worked well for me filtering out those baskets that would run in loss. I closed this week with +200 pips on your set up, if it wasn't for the GBP news that spiked and went to SL it would have been 400+ this week.

Hi FXmadness, Thank you for your explanation of brokers' manipulation of time. This has been one of the mysteries I've seen happening and attributed it to my crappy AT&T internet service. I am thinking about opening a couple more demo accounts and testing the EA set up with same start times to see if there is common "drop-out" times. Interesting. Thanks again, John
Hey Northwind. If you are still having problems send me an email (its on the file server http://xm7.info/ea/ccfp_weekly/)


Folks:
I am looking into the templates that some of you sent me, thnx. I am in making changes to the EA (actually simplifying the code) to the parts that deal with TP/SL/ProfitLock. These need to be working damn right LOL.

I am going to postpone the release of the next version to either next week or the following. The new release should have the TP/SL/Profitlock and the issues that I am reading about (EA not opening trades) in that new version. The new version will also have the 3 Candle and bbSqueeze options back in the inputs.
So far we have been seeing good profit using Rangehour with 3 Candle Color. If we add bbSequeeze then the results are smaller in terms of profit cause there are less trades being taken care of.

Guys if you have problems either PM me or send me an email. Make sure to send your set file and template so I can see exactly what you are looking at.

See ya soon,
Jess

Hi Jess,
First of all, a large THANK YOU for all the months of work you have devoted to the success of everyone in this group. You are incredibly generous and kind.
Second, thank you for your offer of help. After adjusting start times to random minutes xm7 EA is opening trades as it should. Since figuring out how to correctly apply SL & TP with Daily trades my account is back to BE in just a couple of days. And, I'm looking forward to an exciting & profitable week.
Thank you again for a remarkable tool.

Hi Jess,
Thanks for responding. It's always good to check the obvious things first. Yes, the options were check marked. But after rereading the set up with care I did notice a couple other changes/settings to make. It seems I learn something new every time I read through the settings.
Thank you,
