Looks like on two if the charts you show, you aren't using the preset from pg1. If you are experimenting, suggest you use demo accounts.

As you have seen the profit can be great but the loss, if not controlled can be great too.

And to answer your 2nd question, it's up to you and how you feel about trading on holidays.

Question for xmess7

Jess, is there a way to easily set a manual profit value to close the basket and possibly change it a number of times? I'm not talking about TP. I mean a positive stop loss after the basket is in profit. I'll give an example.

My basket is currently in profit +100 pips. I want to set it so that if profit goes down to +50 pips, close the basket. But if the basket keeps going up instead, I may want to change the "close basket" value. If the basket keeps going up to +180 pips, I may want to set it to close at +130 pips, etc.

In other words, I want to take full manual control of the profit level to close the basket. I want to bypass the "BeginLockingProfit", "StepLock", etc. and just give it my own number to close the basket in profit. It would be like changing the "Stop_Loss Basket", but instead of closing in negative pips, it would close in positive pips.

How would I use this? Let's say it is Thursday already and my basket has been at negative or breakeven most of the time. Then the basket makes a good positive move to +100 pips. At this point I am near to closing the basket manually since I don't want to keep it open until Friday. Instead of just closing it now, I would protect +50 pips and keep the basket open in case it goes up some more. Then if it keeps going up, I may want to move the +50 pips protect level to +100 pips. I'll keep going trying to squeeze as many pips as possible.

Maybe you could create another label called "Positive Stop Loss" and put it in the "BASKET STOPLOSS/TAKEPROFIT" category. This would keep it different from "Stop_Loss Basket (pips or %)" which is a negative number.

Easy. Use the manual lock. You can change that value as much as u want.

So say that you are seeing +100 pips... Go over to the inputs and set the trailStop selection to manual lock. Make sure yer begin profit lock is less than the current profit.. so with this example you just need to set it to anything below 100 pips... You can even use +1 pip. You only need to set the beginprofitlock one time. If you are already using it and profit has gone beyond it.. no need to do anything on it. So, the next thing you do is set you manual lock pips to whatever you desire.

I do this very thing myself.
I set my beginlock to 5% and my manual one time lock to 1%.
When I see the basket go beyond 13% I then change the manual lock to 7%. When I see it go up to 23% I set the manual lock to 15% and so on ..

NOTE: .make sure to set the manual lock setting to it's original state. Cause if u forget the EA will use the setting as is on the next basket... Been there and done that .

No u didn't do anything wrong. All u need to do is adjust the TP/SL and/or VB trigger to what you think is adequate for you. In my case I decided to use a 30 pip trigger vs 20 pips that is see on the preset. Plus my TP and SL are different. I use TP=30% or no TP, with a SL=6%. These are numbers I came up with from my forward testing. I do not mind losing 6% or going break even cause based on my findings I know that 2-3 times out of the month the EA will capture a basket that will yeild great profit.. as much or more than 30%.

You need to forward test on demo to find out what u are good with. Or use the setting that are in the prset and be patient. You will have losing weeks and u just have to be patient.

I use Fxchoice and in the US I use oanda. But in reality the broker won't matter much in the long run the profit will just about the same.

My VB did not trigger either. I saw the VB profit at -230 pips. Saved from a lose

Question for Xmess7 regarding Virtual Bounce.

Jess, I have been experimenting with the Virtual Bounce Trigger.

Let's assume I set a negative trigger of -100 pips with a virtual bounce of 20 pips. Then what happens is if my VB drops to -100 pips or lower, then the RB will open when it bounces 20 pips from -100 pips. It will open at -80 pips. Even if the VB dropped to -150 pips, the RB will open at -80 pips. So no matter how low it went, the trigger is fixed at -80 pips.

I would prefer that the bounce be measured from the lowest point below the negative trigger. So if I have the negative trigger set at -100 pips but it keeps dropping all the way to -150 pips, then the bounce should be measured from there and open the basket at -130 pips.

Would this be difficult to set up?

BTW, thanks for answering the question about the positive profit lock.

Hmm. The user the introduced it did not have that in mind. Basically u want the bounce to be off of the Min that is recorded not the set pips. So this mean that iin order for the change to be complete I would need to change it on the other side as well

It sounds like it would be a more complicated change than I imagined. Don't spend any time on it, it was just a thought.

Since I have a couple of weeks to prepare my trading plan for 2019, I've been experimenting on different things. I haven't decided for sure if I would use the virtual bounce feature.
