Hi mrdfx,

how long you keep your VB pending before give up and wait for the next day ?
I'm referring to input parameter "Hours vBasket remains open".

Best regards,

Very strange today the EA did not fire the VB trigger?

To add to this, today was the first day to use this version, so not sure if that's the reason. The previous version I was using was fine.

I don't have any rule set in stone, but normally when I wake up (3 hr behind LO) and check the chart if nothing has fired and its far from the trigger I'll reset it, if its close to the trigger I'll give it another hr, but most times if it hasn't triggered 3 hrs after LO then I don't consider it a good basket for that day, and will reset it.

{quote} No, you don't have to. I'm a manual trader and I use the indicator to find the pairs that are in a strong bullish/bearish trend. Indicator can search all majors and minors (28 pairs) less than a second and give trade suggestions which are very accurate. I set trade level = 5.5 (Main Time Frame = Weekly) in order to filter weaker pairs. In that trade level, indicator usually gives 1-5 suggestions to trade sometimes none like this week. (it's very important to know when to trade or when not to trade) I focus on those suggested pairs and get...

Do you check the indicator suggestions at any certain time of day or day of the week to base your trades, or does it matter? For instance, after LO maybe the signals change, and your previous trades or suggestions are not valid?

Also, for say the monthly suggestions, can you take them any day of the month and still be profitable or do you need to wait for a new month to start? Do you hold those trades for a month?
Same for weekly, do you have to wait for a new week to take the weekly suggestions or can they be taken any day you see a signal? Do you hold them for a week?

Thanks for the help.

@Grandaevus

I am trying out MT5 for the first time, and have loaded your indicator onto the chart the same as i did with mt4, one for daily/weekly/monthly. I cycled through the timeframes just to see, but for some reason i get nothing showing up for daily or weekly suggestions, only monthly. I tried placing the indicator on the chart just once and set it to weekly and it still doesnt produce suggestions, or list anything in the left column, I also tried it with the daily TF. Am I doing something wrong, mt5 is a little different than mt4. I do not see anything in the experts or journals tab.

Thanks.

You don't have to cycle between time frames to force the terminal to load history. Indicator loads needed history automatically.

This loading process takes time. (Up to 2 - 3 minutes)

Is there anything i can send you or show you to help figure this out?
MT5 doesnt seem to be as verbose in the logging as MT4, it doesnt even tell you when an indicator is loaded like MT4 does.
I loaded just the indicator on a plain vanilla chart with the indicator at default settings and it will not display anything on daily or weekly settings, only monthly.
mychoicefx doesnt use any crazy suffix or prefix either. Are there logs anywhere i can look at for errors?
No idea why it would work on monthly but not the others.

If MT4 is really going away id like to make the shift to MT5 sooner rather than later.

Thanks for the help.

If you want to run more than one instance of the indicator on the same chart, just give a different IndicatorIdNo to each one and change their X, Y axes.
if the problem still persists, could you please paste a screenshot that shows market watch, symbol list, and experts tab as shown below.

Good day Grandaevus,

Much appreciated - excellent! Is it in any way possible to:

1. Add date and time when current signals/suggestions are generated?
2. Sort in order from strongest to weakest?

Thanking you
