{quote} I am at GMT+2.
interesting so for example on the image you showed, it was showing 11:44 GMT. so you would be at 13:44 gmt ?
Hmm then the LocalGMTOffset should of been 2 and not 0.. Pleace check all items we are seeing. The display clocks, your local clock and the globals.
We need to see that all of them are in sync.

{quote} Sorry steve I tend to call out the underlying variables in the code and forget what I put for the user to see in the inputs. Yep you got it, AllowTradingByDays. J
Thanks Jess.

My Monday basket hit 200 pips stop loss. I am not using VB. Should I better use VB?

Cheers,

No, on that first image I showed you was 8:44 GMT and 11:43 Broker time. But on the other image where I showed you with variables was local offset as it should "2".

Why did VB open basket not attaining the set values ?

Overslept, and basket got a late start. Nonetheless, RB(of 6 pairs, not 9)was triggered, ProfitLock was met, one 18 pip step was made, and 69 pips were scored. And yes, giving CMSM a try. Looks pretty!!

Personally I prefer the CMSM over the original CCFp and the results speak for themselves.

You should update to the latest version as the one you are using is old. v17.01 is the latest.

Its ok. you just need to adjust either your lotsize or stop until you get that combination that works.

In my case i use mrdfx's settings (i lowered a little tthe origonal stop). I use 5% tp with 7%sl. My lotsize(kinda agressive) .04/500. What i observed was thst wince i was on the heavy side of the lots that the nasket woild reach tp much more than sl. Recently i added a simple rule if after 3 hours after open i do not see prodit i will close rhe basket manually. I observed thst the majority of the time this was the cse. Of the times i tested it (but didnt close it manually) i saw that the loses i incurred woud of been alot less (like -1.5-2.3% instead of 7%.

So in short so some observations. Look for little details thst will help u stay in the game..

Its real simple

I habe been on a short vacation and had no chance to watch my baskets.
But the live basket V37.7.7 worked very well again. I saw the basket opened late on monday because of the virtual basket (30 pips trigger)
The real basket needed until tuesday to hit take profit at 256 pips (settings 250 TP/ 300 SL)
Let's see what tomorrow brings....
@pippo : the test on demo with the virtual bounce trigger endet in a loss with -219 pips. The SL wath calculated by atr and seemed to be too small.

Have been watching both for many months. The difference can be great at times, but most often is minimal.

You are correct... its 8;44 gmt on the first image.

Ok now on this last image.. according to what i see.. gmt is 19:59 and your local clock is 22:57. The difference in minutes is cause your local clock ia not in sync with the global hour(you know the time.gov thing)
So that tells me thst your are locally gmt +3 and u match the brokers clock. Since you indicated you are gmtt+2 could u please check your local time vs a web page with gnt time on it?. Looking at the global variables both localgmtshift and brokergmtshift are both correct given the values of the clocks thst i see on the screen.

Ok then it shoild of worked. Your tradesshoild of opened at 12:00 not 00:00. Broker hour. So my question is this when you see 09:00gmt on the display so you see 12:00 broker time? Check that when u get a chance.
And definitely get v41.2..

We'll need to monitor this for now.

Which test are you referring to? I have never used VBTrigger. Neg. entry trigger value triggers entries, no bounce.

Hi, thnx for the images. Looks like you are activating the vbasket but with no triggers but you are teling the ea to allow new trades thstvapear on indicator list to be added to real basket. Kinda like a weird combination.

Get v41.2 and leave UseVirtualBasket false. You can download it from this post

Seechiw that works out.

Hello pippo,
i have reread your post about the hypotetical negative basket. I thougt you have used the virtual bounce as a trigger, that was my mistake.
....seems like i got a little bit confused. Waiting for the wednesday basket... and testing V41.2

Use EA v41.2.
Anything above the line is an uptrend, below the line is a downtrend.

Hi Thomas, great result. I wonder why do you still use V37.7.7 and not using latest version?
