{quote} May I ask why I can't download the lates version of EA?? It appears that templates was not found in the server?? Can you help me how to download?
andie04, you may download EA V41.9 to use as V42 has bug and Jess is going to fix V43 error. Or you still can use EA V43 but don't set pair strength to true, if I am not wrong based on what Jess said. You can download it from the paper clip sign on the top right hand corner of the thread.
There is no template at the moment. Download EA and CMSM, V.18.01 is the latest, indicator and attach them to the chart.
You may go back few pages to find it or click on the clip sign on the top right hand corner and looking for the name and download.

Cheers,
Steve

The EA calculates the immediate profit % in this way.

% = 100 x (Gain/AccountBalance()). Where Gain is the current profit or loss the account is experiencing.

At the same time, every second the EA is taking that % and keeping track of the highest and lowest value. Every time the EA detects a higher VALUE or lower Value it will record that as thew new value.

I don't calculate the % value by using the EQUITY, I have the EA add up the individual profits+commissions+swaps and then divide by the account balance. I do this so that you can keep track of separate EAs (if you are using separate EAs) and you are getting the exact gain or loss based not only on profit but also commission and swap.

so this is what I will do. I will create a debug version ... in that version I will have BOTH ways of calculating the% gain. We can monitor this to see if there is a big difference... like it seems to be on this one.

Jose:
I noticed something. See the gain at the top? -6.86%. That is the value that the EA keeps track of. so what may of happened is that the global values for max/min were not reset properly. You see the only way the EA would record that high value was if the -6.86% went that low. OR if that number was already there due to previous additions or whatever the EA would use it and since -114 is lower than -6.86 the EA has no reason to change it.

I'll look to see what is happening. The idea right now is the alow for the EA to keep in memory for the whole week the highest and lowest values. This was done so we can see this info for the whole week. Hit the RESET button to reset the it and the global then keep tracking it from there. I will check to see if there is any missing resets....

Jess and rumbaut, if I am not wrong, that number in the yellow box, the EA keep record the highest and lowest pips or % (based on you set the basket SL and TP in pips or %) that the trade has been reached. Based on the picture the basket was -114.3% on 25/10/2018 at 00:6 GMT. It was not closed as rumbaut did not set SL and TP level. The basket eventually came back to the -6.8% (figure on the top) is current figure.

That's why I always know what level the basket reached during my sleeping time or away from my pc. It allows me to get the sample of frequent low and high the basket reached to come out the idea of 200 pips SL and TP. Very useful.

I like v18 very much. But I think that must make time adjustment. What I see is that it better to open basket 3 or 4 am GMT.
today is very strong example for that. many pairs that was "SELL" now are "BUY",
I will post weekly report in Friday

Hi Johanes

Thanks for the set file, only modified the lot size and candle m15,m30,h1

Note: almost always at 7 EST we get STRONG REVERSAL of Asia-London trend, so if we open the EA there with candle H4,D1,W1 you can loss a lot. I opened the basket during that reversal but instead align with m15,m30,h1

francisakz:
You need to tell the EA at what basket profit level u want it to send u an alert. That is, when it reaches a level you defined, it then sends u an alert. The real use of the alerts are to tell the user where the basket profit is(+/-pips). Once alerted the user may take action or whatever they want to do. Otherwise there is no other real criteria for sending an alert.

The max/min are not based on the tp/sl. Those values are recorded from the gain% (total profit of all trades/accountBalance). You do have a point in that with sl=0 that it is possivle that the gain went real low and returned but if that were the case wouldnt of jose had a margin call?? So like i mentioned it coild be that he is seeing a number that was left over from a previous basket min. Also you got to consider he has been dealing with multiple baskers and since he constantly testing the max/min numberssaved in global could be all mixed to the point that the EA is detecting multiple gains and adding them up.

Otherwise as long as u run one EA with same number of baskets.. The EA will display the correct numbers

Rumbaut, I see you use "price typical and not weighted-does that give you better results?
Are you using DBMultiASM or other Dash?
