{quote} You can find my preset in post #13314. I explain my method in detail in a few posts following that one. I currently open my baskets at 14:10 GMT. The opening time is 40 minutes after New York Stock Exchange open. So it will change with Daylight Savings Time change.
Thank you!

Hello there,

First of all, thank for such a great strategy and EA.

I'm trying to start this system but when i load the CMSM V17.01 it won't start in the daily and weekly times. Don't give me errors, just don't load anything. The strength levels and the trade suggestions still in blank. When i downgrade to lower timeframes, like 1 minute, then i have strength levels and trade suggestions. Can you guys help me to fix it? Where am i messing up?

Thank you all! Peace!

Here's attached image showing my problem.

-----Edit------

Here's another image showing my market watch tab with all the 28 currencies pairs. And yes, i have added the ".s" suffix into CMSM configs, otherwise nor the lower timeframes will be showing me nothing. I made some tests and the greatest timeframe that works for me is the H4, everything greater than that gives me this blank error.

Monday basket -1%
Indicator: CMSM v14.01, level=2
EA setup: open 09:00,
tp: 5%(forgot to changecit to 7%
sl: (close basket @ 3hr mark)

After 3 hours no profit... so EA closed basket at -1%. Waaaay better than closing at -7%... Wednesday here we come ...

Folks:
Jose provides a great example of how multiple indicator copies where placed on the charts. He is using 2 but some folks had 12 and on several charts lol. So now you can see what those old inputs would refer to when they included "list". Only the trades on the lists were affected,. nothing to do with the real basket.

Jose, since no one was using the setup you have the inputs were deactivated. On the next version i was going to remove them. So next version v41.91 I'll activate them. Will have it out soon.

Will see if i can get the code updated to apply the conditions u need. This might take awhile cause i am going to also leave the code function as is now. More than likely there will be a set of inputs that deal with affecting the vb as a real basket, that's where you will set your preferences for that.

Stay tuned

Jess it seems like the final version is getting further away with new additions and functions being added...

Awesome Xmess7

1) Is possible in that version only filter the pair that are in the same direction in the two baskets ?

2) Is possible in that version to add exit option with any of the following options: opposite B1 OR opposite B2 OR opposite B1,B2 ?

Thanks
Jose

I was able to get it running changing the CMSM indicator back to the 14.01 version.

Now i'm getting those errors in the EA when it starts to open the basket:

Attached Image (click to enlarge)
Click to Enlarge Name: xm7_load_ind_error.PNG Size: 111 KB


It's appearing that the EA can't find the indicators "Moving Average, Average True Range and Standard Deviation". Those indicators aren't on the root folder of the program MQL5\Indicators. And i can only see them while i'm inside the metatrader 5, i can't figure out where those indicators are in the folders. I have put the EA into the AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Terminal\**********513D9601A49946A\MQL5\Experts folder and the indicator is in the AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Terminal\**********513D9601A49946A\MQL5\Indicators

Of course, i'm using the metatrader 5.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks!


--- Edit ---

I just realized that from the 9 suggested positions, the EA only opened 6 of them. I don't know if this could give me clue about this error. Just saying to try to help you to help me. Thanks again.

EA update v41.91

xm7_Ccfp_Wkly_TradeMonitor_v41.91.ex4

Before I do any changes or updates to incorporate the vb as real basket thing. I am posting this update.

I have removed the IsMarketClose function. Some of you are experiencing issues (no trades).

So everyone please use this version. If any of you still have issues, erase all globals that start with "xm7" (hit F3 to see globals) and reload the EA.

The reason I had added this was to try to avoid the EA from opening a basket as soon as the market opened. This happened to me a couple of weeks ago and I took a loss. It is tricky to detect when the market is off due to many factors that happen as a user uses MT4. So for now I am removing it. It's unlikely that the EA will do it again, this was just a preventative measure....

I have looked over the code and I can add code that will address the VB thing we have been talking about. Good thing is that it will not take long.
A couple of question remains... and I've decided not to ask them, LOL. Cause if I ask, it will open a new can of worms.

In my view, I do not see the need for this since we are dealing with the market and the future. Besides a handful of us have been doing this for more than a year and half with success (live account in profit). The fact that we have had success till now is evident that this is not that needed. But the merit will be shown when forward testings proves that having processed a vb as a real basket yields better DD. I didn't say more profit .. better DD, for better control of it which leads to better odds of getting great profit when it happens. So with this is mind lets do this....

I do, however, foresee up to 3 more inputs being added (hopefully less). These inputs will allow the users to select if they want the EA to operate as it has or to apply the filters and all to the VB as is done with the Real basket.

In order to not cause anymore delays or MORE REQUESTS I am going take liberties with the way certain things are done to the vb AFTER it has been processed like the Real basket is. YES, there are alot more ramification that no one has thought about yet. I am VERY sure that once this new version gets under way many of YOU that use it, will see what I mean and I can guarantee that I will be asked to ADD this or CHANGE that. LOL.

So Lets go into the future and lets put this behind us... cause guys its been over 2 years.. We should NOW be sharing our profit results not our opinions on what approach is best....

vinivst:
Hi. Try this. Open an empty chart. Load the CMSM indicator and WAIT TILL IT IS DONE. It takes a while
Then once it is completely done... load the ccfp monitor EA.

I just loaded my setup and had no real issues. HOWEVER... Before I loaded the EA... I did notice that the CMSM had those missing indicator ERRORS.
So I reloaded the Indicator and no more errors. Weird.

Like I said the EA does not use any indicators. all it does is "READ" the text on the chart that the CMSM indicator prints.
You can test the EA by hitting the OPEN button. if the EA Opens trades then it should work.
