{quote} Hi JustUncleL, just to confirm my general understanding of your HAS v1 here: - Using earlier version of HAS released some months ago with no other indicators, in auto mode starting on Asia open? - HAS 2/3/2/4 with BO Line Break, Look Back of 3 and SL PIP Lock? - No TS exit (?) only DB with EL 100/50? - Targeting 100 pips One and Done Daily? Not sure if I've missed out something here, in particular relating to exit but would appreciate your brief comments. Thanks a lot
My HASv1 TS settings have not changed since I started, My DB settings have change a small amount as I'm trying to optimise the TP/SL, but looks pretty good now with EL 100/50 and BE SL 80.

All these settings can be found in post #3217.

I start trading Just after Tokyo Open and set up for One n Done. If trading not completed near the end of New York session I plan to stop it manually, but that has not happened yet.

Your welcome, I can't wait to get my hands on Eugene's latest addition to the Basket trader, where he adds the BO condition from HASv1 to it. Sort best of both worlds and probably only need to use the Basket trader after that for just about anything, Trend trading, Swing trading, BO trading...

{quote} Nice catch. What will be your exit plan? How did you choose the pairs? The results show we need a broader brush when using Add-too option. For me HASv1 One n Done continues it's run, now 8 consecutive Days with about 680pips profit, max DD 71pips: {image}
Wow I let this one run too long. But it was just a test. I pick the pairs with ADR over 100. for the day. The add to works but to large a DD. Stop loss would be better. Say 20 pips SL then get back in - in the opposite direction. Need to pay more attention to the RSI and check pairs on a four hour basis.

Looking forward to it.

Just to follow up on the EL setting, I'm seeing a few of my results today coming just short of 100 pips (per attached). Do you have any fail safe in place in case the 100 pips within the EL setting 100/50 is not reached?

Thanks

UPDATE: then of course we have another surprise .. trade opening London time reaching 330 pips using just HAS / Swing! Looking at the huge difference trade open time can sometimes make for us I am wondering if the strategy of cutting losses early using a tight ATR on a pair by pair basis would yield more consistent results. Any thoughts from Gene and fellow traders welcome on this one. Cheers

{quote} It took a short trade as the swing (red dot) and red down arrow were present at the same time. (The red arrow has since repainted and moved) 1) No earlier trade closure as the swing and semafor Long signals were not present at the same time to force an exit. 3) The second short was generated by the second short swing signal (red dot), which you are using as an add to trade selections.
Hi Gene, hope you don't mind me throwing in these questions however I need more of your expert advice.

If you please take a look at the attached trade; this is a currently running setup as part of HAS Swing Asia open in which this single trade represents 65% of the current losses in the basket. Having set Add_To_Swing_Trade_On_ New_Swing to false but leaving Use_Add_To_Trade_On_Pullback to true we have 2 shorts currently in play.

We also have Aut_ATR_SL set to 2.5 with Trail_Auto_SL which incidentally I cant see on the chart. Also with 1 ATR = 40 pips (GBPAUD) shouldn't we have had a stop out @ 100 pips for at least one of the two trades?

So questions are 1) are we seeing the right behaviour here from the TS and 2) how would you personally use the Basket Trader TS setting to avoid such a heavy draw down from occurring?

Thanks very much in advance

All my tests were on Tokyo open, for HASv1 I set BE SL to $80 for 0.1 Lot trade size.

I put a SL on all my setups now, in readiness for any move to going Live.

For the Add-to All Pairs, I now set my BE SL = TP and TS ATR SL=3. For example my HAS+Swing+Sema with Add-to, I now have EL=200/100 and BE SL=200, I want to see how that goes.

Thanks for catching this, you are right it should have placed a SL on the chart.

I have checked the Code and found several bugs that have made their way into the code for the SL and also for the TP.

I will fix these and the next version will have these fixes along with the added Fractal BO Lines.

Should be out this weekend as I am doing some final testing now on this next version v7x.

Good pick up on the TS ATR SL, I've only just started looking at it. It will be great to have it fixed ready for my next batch of testing.

Hi All,

Reset HAS after Asian Session and did another one n done for London and worked out great. Am resetting again today for Asian session again and think I might do a cheeky Live test also as we know love results can differ from Demo so will post how that works out after the asian session .... fingers crossed.

Thanks to great collaboration, I believe this was all working good in v5; in the meantime I will use the DB's SL/ADR to control the DD for the next couple of days and look forward to the patch soon. All the best

{quote} HI Pip Poppy, Interesting setup you have here is there any chance you can share the TS settings with us, and am assuming you are using Basket Trader 6x? Also keen to know what your exit strategy is for each pair as you say you are letting the TS close out the trades? Many thanks
Hi Scousetrader,

TS settings attached - version 6x for both the TS and the DB. I let the TS close out the trades via confirmed Semafor / Swing reversal signals.

{quote} Personally I am not in favor to having no stop loss in this case, because of the Add-too trade on the redrawing Sema/Swing dots can significantly make large DD more exponential and you don't know how far it will go, once the trading starts to progress more into dark land you need a larger account or tiny lot sizes. Maybe if I don't use Add-to's I might consider open ended SL and let the Algo make the stops, however, I have shown my style of trading I want to pursue with EL/BE SL settings and One n Done technique. Also I like to restart trading...
Yes well said - the S9 DB allows each trader to set things up as they wish, with a trading style that they are comfortable with.

Thanks mightymatt looks good. I have been preparing for live trading on a few broker accounts but haven't taken the step as yet. I'm pondering whether to have identical setups executing on Demo and Live accounts on the same broker just to satisfy curiosity. Also thinking about what ADR setting (if any) to use for Send_SL/TP_To_Broker settings on the Dashboard. Looking forward to your results. All the best

My open trades are in some DD mostly due the GBP pairs.
Note that the closed profit is all due to letting the TS close out the trades with reversing Semafor / Swing signals so at this stage the week as a whole is running at roughly BE.

Yes I have started evaluating what value for the Send to Broker SL/TP, I want a value that is going to be effective and not cause massive DD in event of communications lost with Broker server. As these are DAily ATR values and they get attached to each trade separately, I'm thinking along the lines of about 1.0 or 1.5 for SL on non-Add-too setup's (TP can be 3 or more). I tried 3 but that was way off the price action so far that it would never be reached by normal hourly Price action, I don't consider that an emergency stop. With Add-to set-up's it will depend on how far you will allow the 1st trade to go in the price action, personally I think still no more than 2 x ADR.

If we use the TS ATR SL/TP, in that case should not the DB Send TP/SL To Broker just be a bit bigger than the TS's?

Well it had to happen sooner or later, I have had my first HASv1 failure on Day 9 of my testing, but still 610pips in front.

Had to be the day I tried it Live didn't it! ha ..... no pain no gain as they say.

In saying that it is slowly pulling back as I had my stop set higher than yours so currently still in the game and maybe London Open might yield some help too.

Fingers crossed
