Jess: I then tried V41.92 - with this version no virtual basked worked, wether setting sort by strenght to true or to false. Only opening normal baskets worked, the pairs were sorted by strenght as it should- Thomas
thomas1386 try this..

Remove the EA from the chart, click F3 and clear the global variables related to the EA, then clear the experts log.

Now reload the EA on the chart and set up the EA settings from fresh not using any previous preset file, and then try the VB again.

If it still does not open check the expert log to see what it says.

I don't know what you mean by adding 1 hour?

If you are talking about the Check Candle Color Trend filter, then yes I do use them in the daily baskets.

{quote} voketexpert: Weird that the errors should show up.. Don't know what to say. Like I said the EA does not have any indicator as a resource nor does it call iCustom. See image ... just to make sure I made two searches in the source code (v40.4) and nothing. No resource is compiled nor does the EA call iCustom("whatever indicator"). You should consider getting the latest v41.92 cause the version you are using may have other problems.. BTW you need to get the EA fonts. Unzip this file and place the the fonts in the C:\windows\FOnts folder. That...
Thank you my man xmess7. I am on it.

homas1386: Aside from what MrDFX indicated.... Set PrintDebugInfo=True. At the moment you set that or load the EA a list of the pairs that the EA detects will be printed in the Expert Log. This list is an example of what will be used for either the virtual VB or the Real B. I saw example cause the EA only does this right before either a VB or RealBasket is triggered. If you leave the PrintDebugInfo true then you should be able to see EXACTLY what the EA detected before trying to open a vb (for the real basket case it will be the list before it is processed). The timestamp in the Expert Log for the printed list of trade should match that timeframe you see on the screen.

Let me explain what was done to add the strength thing...
if you leave the strength input false, the operation of the EA is exactly as before. The EA "reads" the list and then does something with the list. But when you set the strength input to true then after the EA "reads" the list of suggested pairs, it will sort the pairs into strongest to weakest. That's it. everything else after that is exactly the same as before. So you say "what is happening?" "Why no vb or etc?" The worse thing that can happen is if the EA "reads" nothing. You can confirm that this is not happening by leaving the PrintDebuginfo=true. Then after a vb is supposed to appear, you should see in the Expert Log, at the time the vb was opened (that timestamp u see on the chart), a list of trades that match to what is on the chart. Now, if you find that you do not see any list then something is wrong and I need to re-examine the function called GetPairs(). I will also need to re-examine the sorting code that was added into that function. But I highly doubt that either is not working. Both have been extensively tested. So then if those are not the issues then we need to see if you are setting some combination that is negating the program from using GetPairs(). Again., doubt that is the issue, then perhaps we need to look at the Globals. Another possibility is that the copy you have still contains the IsMarketOpen variable, cause the symptom you describe is what typically would happen when we were using the IsMarketOpen variable.

For now do as MRDFX instructed, tested all the possible setups, and let me know what happens.

Here is a picture using PIN option with CMSM ind ( AMAZING IND ) where you can see how the function i am requested should work. Filtering same direction in the two lists AUDCAD has BUY in list 1 and list 2, so this pair qualify for BUY

Note: I don't want to mix here with DASHBOARD EAX, only is for showing purpose. Jess EA is awesome too working with this ind

{quote} If possible from you and have the time for it in your EA
Yep, the reason I am willing to do it is cause the code is already there. Its from the JENCUL DAYS... remember that person?? KRAZY COMBINATIONS OF 30 BASKETS LOL.

Since the code was already there, the other day when I was testing the allowduplicates and allowOpposite, I actually saw it working... just like you indicated. But in order to make sure that the first part works I turned it off.

So here is my question. Say you have the following 3 basket with the following parts
Basket1: Basket2: BAsket3:
EU BUY EU BUY EU BUY

If you select AllowDuplicates=false the EA will ignore all of the suggested trades.
However if you apply the approach you mention then... all 3 turn into 1 EU BUY trade.

What if AllowDuplicates=false is set and at the same time you want the condition to combine the pairs?

Does the EA first get rid of the duplicates and then apply the combine condition? Or does the EA first apply the combine condition and the ignore the duplicates?

Similarly what do you do when you have hedges?
List1: List2: List3: List4: List5: List6:
EU BUY EU BUY EU BUY EU SELL EU BUY EU SELL

How do I apply the AllowOpposite/AllowDuplicates/combine conditions??

You see what I mean? Cause if this logic is not done correctly you are going to keep asking for more adjustments that in reality won't make sense.
You would need months of data where you tested EACH scenario and with that data then you can determine which is the best combination.

Think about your answer.

Hi Xmess7

Logic:

if AllowDuplicates=false then Allowcombodirection =true
if AllowDuplicates=true then Allowcombodirection =false
if AllowOpposite = false then Allowcombodirection =true
if AllowOpposite = true then Allowcombodirection = false

AllowOpposite/AllowDuplicates = true "when any of those function or both are true , will be ignored the Allowcombodirection function

AllowOpposite/AllowDuplicates = false and Allowcombodirection =true will be open ONLY 1 order in the direction of the pair that is equal in all lists ( IT ONLY WILL FILTERED WHEN AllowOpposite/AllowDuplicates = false )

Sample
Scenario A
Basket1: Basket2: BAsket3: EU BUY EU BUY EU BUY

OPTION 1
AllowDuplicates=true
AllowOpposite = true
Allowcombodirection =true (or false )

Because here we have AllowOpposite/AllowDuplicates = true ( could be any of those 2 functions ) the Allowcombodirection =true will be ignored and we get this"

3 orders EU BUY

OPTION 2
AllowDuplicates=true
AllowOpposite = false
Allowcombodirection =true ( or false )

Because here we have AllowOpposite/AllowDuplicates = true ( could be any of those 2 functions ) the Allowcombodirection =true will be ignored and we get this"

3 orders EU BUY

OPTION 3
AllowDuplicates=false
AllowOpposite = true
Allowcombodirection =true ( or false )

Because here we have AllowOpposite/AllowDuplicates = true ( could be any of those 2 functions ) the Allowcombodirection =true will be ignored and we get this"

1 orders EU BUY because is not allowing duplicated

OPTION 4
AllowDuplicates=false
AllowOpposite = false
Allowcombodirection =true

Because here we have AllowOpposite/AllowDuplicates = false the Allowcombodirection =true will be used and we get this"

1 orders EU BUY ( in all lists EU has BUY )

Scenario B
List1: List2: List3: List4: List5: List6: EU BUY EU BUY EU BUY EU SELL EU BUY EU SELL

Same as previous scenario, only having more lists, let check the options:

OPTION 1
AllowDuplicates=true
AllowOpposite = true
Allowcombodirection =true (or false )

Because here we have AllowOpposite/AllowDuplicates = true ( could be any of those 2 functions ) the Allowcombodirection =true will be ignored and we get this"

4 orders EU BUY , 2 orders EU SELL

OPTION 2
AllowDuplicates=true
AllowOpposite = false
Allowcombodirection =true ( or false )

Because here we have AllowOpposite/AllowDuplicates = true ( could be any of those 2 functions ) the Allowcombodirection =true will be ignored and we get this"

NO orders EU because we have BUY and SELL same pair and AllowOpposite = false ( no hedge )

OPTION 3
AllowDuplicates=false
AllowOpposite = true
Allowcombodirection =true ( or false )

Because here we have AllowOpposite/AllowDuplicates = true ( could be any of those 2 functions ) the Allowcombodirection =true will be ignored and we get this"

1 orders EU BUY , 1 orders EU SELL , ONLY 1 order by direction because is not allowing duplicated ( AllowDuplicates=false )

OPTION 4
AllowDuplicates=false
AllowOpposite = false
Allowcombodirection =true

Because here we have AllowOpposite/AllowDuplicates = false the Allowcombodirection =true will be used and we get this"

NO orders EU because the pair has different direction in all 6 list ( they should be the same )

Note: Picture is showing results since yesterday night opening at gmt 0 mimic the following functions via PIN with only 2 lists ( CMSM H4 + CMSM D1 )
AllowDuplicates=false
AllowOpposite = false
Allowcombodirection =true

Let me know if clear Xmess7 and thanks for it in advance

Regards
Jose

Good. That is the way the code logic is right now. Just wanted to confirm what u had in mind. For example I thought you might want the combo to be applied first and then the Allowopposite/AllowDuplicates.... which would produce differrent results..

BTW. I saw your image showing EAX. did u get the cmsm plugin (pin) to work on that?

yes, but is not working with suffix , maybe Grandaevus can help you in that

Note: I don't want to post picture from DASHBOARD EAX to avoid any issue with the thread, only is to showing you the potential of it. The pin ind is reading the last version of cmsm v17.01

As Wednesday was a sideway day, I've decided to use MrDfx method on Thursday, with a target of 30%. around 6 hours after opening, it has hit around 12%.

Ps: I set it to 30% is to see how high it can go. Usually ill close the basket manually around 6 hours later (with a half hour manual monitoring of the basket). If sideway action ill close them earlier manually as well

The code is written like that but it is not visible to you yet. So you would not see the combo thing at all.

As for the suffix thing .. i see no issues... remenber the EA automatically detects alll the suffixes your broker has and also activates pairs that are not active in the symbols list. Besides the EA does not care about the siffixes the indicators show. It gets the suffix and prefix(if any) from directly from the broker...

Pss: jose i am confused. I saw your images what EA are u taking about?? If no suffix and trade opened what is the issue?

Good data... pls keep it coming.

We are currently testing a feature which is basically already avaialble but in its current form you need to do some input manipulation to the EA

If the data shows it.. we will see a drastic DD reduction as well as possibly lowering the stoploss criteria... real good stuff....

Sorry for confusion Jess

The issue with suffix is with the PIN indicator I sent before, it works with pairs without suffix, what i did there was open account that is without suffix and tested the indicator PIN communicating with DASHBOARD EAX, that is why are trades there.

In your EA is not problem at all, only is missing the requested function
