Guys another thing I want to say and reiterate what bojack34 said about all the questions addressed to me or asked here.

If I don't reply to your questions its not that I am ignoring you, if I do not reply its cos the question you asked has already been answered several times, and most likely by me or xmess7 at some point back in the thread. I'm not trying to be a douche but if you only take the time to read back a few pages you will find your answers I guarantee that.

There are newcomers coming to the thread and wanting to be spoon fed everything without even doing a little leg work, come one guys..

Now I'm not saying you need to read all 717 pages, but at least go back to earlier this year from Jan-Feb and read from there as things have changed and evolved since the thread started.

I assure you that if you read first then you wont be asking questions later.

Peace.
Truth is like poetry. And most people f*cking hate poetry.

I apologise again if it came across as I wanted 'spoon feeding', it was genuinely meant to be just a question about other peoples' takes on the opening times.

This thread, and the work everyone does in it, is great. I really appreciate it.

Green pips to all.

Wednesday basket hit -7%

Awesome!!! Since Monday was +7%, break even for the week.

Note: i completely forgot that it was tradeday lol. So despite waking up and checking mt4 activity.. i did not check the mt4 with ccfp EA. Looking at max/min and when they happened if i would of checked I would of closed out with profit... i would of seen about 1.7% at the 3hour mark (when i check to see if in dd) and used the SEE PROFIT/CLOSE PROFIT approach lol.

Lotsize: 0.04/500 tp: 5% sl: 7%

Actually i could use yer help. Show me an image of the EA displaying the gmt clock vs your local clock.
The EA does have code that detect US DST and also the European Summer Time shift but have not made time to sort it out and place the correct hour sequence.
Anyhow your info will provide more insight.

Thnx

Hi Jess,

Sure, sorry about the photo, I can't screenshot my VPS. I should point out that the question wasn't a technical one. The EA does exactly what it is meant to, at 7.30 GMT, it opens the basket. It was just a general philosophical question, I am just curious why you chose 9 am GMT instead of closer to London Open.

Your work here is immeasurably helpful to everyone on this thread, thanks again!

Edit - My VPS local time is not the same as mine - I am in the UK so on BST (GMT + 1) and my Broker (IC Markets) is GMT + 3

Ok no problem but as bo pointed out gmt is gmt ia gmt is gmt lol. So all yoi really need to do is adjust the open gmt hour to your preference cause no matter what gmt hiur u pick stuff will happen at that gmt hour.

First of all i did not set up the parameters... mrdfx is the author and he has data to nack it up. All i did was add Wednesday to batch and the data too has proven very well for wednesday.....

I do have an earlier setup that yeilded a 10 week winning streak. I will be running that soon to determine if any adjsutments nees to be made. In thst case i start the basket at 1100 Gmt on Monday only.

I will be posting both setup run results soon.

peace
J

Baskets stopped out on Wednesday. Missed target by .02 on 1 basket and 1.7 on the other . Still tweaking - not much sense in widening the stop I think, if it goes south it seems to keep going so Jess's 7-7.5% is probably good. The GBP was the hero monday and the villain today, such is life . Plan on trying the VB next week to see what it does also. Still testing - this is v41.3 ans CMSM 17.01 and it appears to be working as it should.

A question on the VB setup if someone can give me a clue, the VB trigger bounce setting - how does that work please?

Cheers All

i think bounce works like this. for example you set negative trigger pips =200. bounce 100. so when vb reaches -200.. it need to improve to -100 for the real basket to open. but be careful.. it could be just a bear trap..

My real Acc. hit S/L on Wednesday but my demo acc which opened only 2 pairs survive and still running, I set it to close on Friday. I have no idea why it only opened 2 pairs compare to 12 pairs in real acc .

In real acc I am using mrdfx's new set file where as demo I am using mrdfx's old set file. Just change S/L and P/L to pips.

Hi Jess. Today VB opened all 8 pairs as suggested but RB opened just 3 pairs, probably because of Candle Color Trend, but isn't supposed to VB also check this filter and open accordingly to it. Otherwise it won't be wright with RB when we have upper or lower trigger in VB.

Today's basket was stopped out for a loss of 125 pips, about 2.2% on a $500 USD acct. @.01 lots/pair. Many stop outs as of late. Not Good. Today's GBP news triggered the RB. Within 15 min., it was stopped out. No picture, sorry.

Hello to all,
for me it was also a bad wednesday.
Due to my lack of discipline I made it even worse.... When I took a first look at my computer, my live basket was stopped out at 300 pips. I then saw that the ea on my demo with the SL/TP calculation with atr was still alive. It had gone down to -310 pips on was on the way up again at -280 pips. The SL was calculated to 593, TP to 474 pips. I then decided to open another basket on my live account at this moment with another SL with 350 pips - this would been around the point of the atr calculated SL because of 2 times spread...and got stopped out a second time
