Busy weekend and sadly, time has not been my friend.

I will be updating the new donations Monday(ish)...sorry to the new members and to those who have shot in a SECOND donation...

Your efforts are what keep me going!

I've just run a little short on time.

Will keep up to making sure everybody who is in, gets in and update the thread donation tally as we grow!

Clearly, I would not make a great Administrator...but in all honesty...who's here for that?
lol

This Week, given the amount of experienced traders we have on board, I will be encouraging ALL to take part in throwing down a Technical Analysis and we can really put the Manual Trigger Version to test on some longer time frames.

Scalpers...we will spend some time during NZ, TK, LO and NY to get things making some quick yips!

Love the group we have on board...let's start to Flex our Collective Minds and Market Muscle!!

AuuuuuuuooooooooooGA!

Hybrid Scalp Settings...

This is my settings for the Manual Start V1.1 Hybrid.
Attached Image

Xuicide and FK are both active after the primary trade...

Why?

In trading with the trend...and well, even when trading against the trend, there is a certain appreciation of the 1 EMA on all time frames.

Triggering off of the M1...the H1 1EMA is a 60...get it?

As a part of the template, we view the 60 EMA so work to understand current price and it's relationship to this line.

IF we are in trend and price moves against our trades, we should find that exit based on a retrace of this line...if not, we should at least be able to salvage a lot of trades against and work to either close out or cost average out the balance.

The template I posted, though missing the LargeTimeFrame indicator - which has been posted previously - should give a Great understanding of price and the 1 EMA on the H1.

So where does the 288 fit in?

I have previously described the 3 hour Moving average...but really, this would actually equate to a 180 EMA...288 is a lot different...but still relevant.

There are 1440 minutes in a day...20% of the day is 288 of these minutes. 1/5th.

If current price is working above the 288 EMA, we have 20% of the day making gains on an immediate trend.

This may not seemingly make sense, as is spoken, but if you watch how and when the triggering takes place, you can come to appreciate what happens when a single hour of the day, closes above or below 1/5th of the day and how long it takes to turn this around.

Typically speaking...if we are in trend, ie, 288>1440 we can expect larger movements when buying...if 288<1440 but 60>288, this may be good for a shallow play, but can turn against you in a heartbeat.

You will see a lot of these moving average crosses throughout the week...if you pay attention and ultimately, to you and your standards of trading, these may mean nothing. Really, when a Fast EMA> Slow EMA, we are looking at these as a broad way to define the trend...on an M1 chart, there can be a lot of confusion generated, so this simply cross helps to get you into the action and if you've paid attention to the 12/26 Pull Back for rules, adding in the FK triggering backed up with Xuicides Aggressive, should get you out of almost anything!

Questions,

1. The EA "Hybrid Manual Start" should be added into chart at the same time(if yes, put one chart only if I run for multi-currency?)for running or just "RMHC Hybrid" put to chart only?

2. The magic number should be all set to 0 for multi-currency or each instrument should be different?

1. RMHC is a fully automated trader. Hybrid Manual, requires you to take a manual trade before it will engage. Once you have taken the primary trade, it will employ the logic based on settings in the Experts Properties. Both are coded Exact, with exception that RMHC will take the first trade based on it's primary triggering logic.

2. Magic number is only crucial if you are taking trades and want help from the EA or if you are taking manual trades on the same account as you have automated. If you magic number = 0, the EA will work within it's logic to profit out of any trades initiated. If you set the magic number to anything other than 0, it will work 100% on its own.

Both of these need to be set on each trade pair that you want them to trade on, independently. ie, they are not a multicurrency nor basket styled trader.
If you want to only trade EURUSD, set the selected EA and put it on EURUSD and it will ONLY trade this pair. If it is RMHC, will do so in full auto, if Hybrid Manual will require you to take a trade before it will wake up.

Does this all make sense?

Back from holidays !
I left Hybrid 1.0 running on 6 pairs and so far so good.

Now its time for serious backtest with maybe manual closing intervention on the new Hybrid version.
I will remove USD/CAD for GBP/AUD and stay with 6 pairs.

Hi, which pairs are the best for this strategy? EURUSD looks very good but, for example, AUDUSD isn't profitable..

On the RMHC Hybrid Revolution TE, I believe you are running RMHC Hybrid 1.1.

We are really still fairly fresh on this version, so hard to say which will be the leaders in the long run.

On my TE, the GBP pairs seem to be taking the biggest leads for gains, this could be due to the whippy action over the last week...

Keep eyes on the Trade Explorers attached and look at the ones posted by other members.

Best part of us all testing with our own ideas...we get to cherry pick the risk and reward we'd see on our own accounts.

Magix, I have noticed that EA don't take min profit $1 even if goes beyond $1 and than fall under that but take profit with later occasion. Is it supposed to do so?

All of the Evolution/Revolution and Hybrid Series have a Dynamic Grid which applies to not only entries, but also to exits.

Meaning...we need to see a minimum grid and trigger before the EA will cost average and also need to see a Minimum Profit Plus trigger to exit.

Single trades - where there has been no cost averaged trades, will close at Half of the Minimum Profit...this too helps to keep the risk lower by taking some crusts while there is some bread on the table.

On the Hybrid Series, I have extended the triggering logic so that when there are multiple trades in place to try and squeeze as much out of market as it can get.

Have a look at the existing trades on my Xuicidez Account...Floating Profit...$13.52...

This is more of the idea...but there are some that get out a little premature in a whippy non-trending market...

Sometimes we are the windshield...sometimes we are the bug...but if both of these circumstances mean profit, we're all good.

Almost 2 full weeks on this and nearly doubled the account.

Should have named this motherfucker Beer Money!

Have gotten some very positive reports via private messages and emails...glad you are all enjoying these.

Sadly...time has still been limited, gymnastics this morning with the granddaugther and spent the day in the sun...tomorrow is with the wife and granddaugther, shopping for plants...yeah, this sounds like it will be cheap...

Again...apologies for not having enough time to commit to the thread and get all caught up with donations and longer stratagies...but maybe over the next couple of days, I will have the Bollinger Band EA finished and ready to add to your toolkit.

Not positive...but I think I've figured out how to Hybrid the Hybrids and instead of having 2-3 of these to toggle through, I may be able to consolidate your primary trigger on Hybrid with the Hybrid Trigger, the Bollinger Band Trigger and make these so that they are either Fully Auto or Manual as a single entity...

Yeah...not amazing stuff for folk with programming skills...just keep in mind, I ain't that guy!

Thanks all for your comments and continued support!!
