hi xmess7, can u create this EA can use other indicator? others ccfp and cms... create new one FFx Universal Strength Meter... https://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=565276
You mean can I modify the EA to read FFx indicator.

My qurquest to you is.. since the letter only shows currency strength (which BTW is already present in the ccfp-diff indicator) how do you propose to use it? In other words the EA needs to see Pairs and suggested directions, the currency meter only shiws strength. So then how do uouvpropoyo we use it??

CMSM Trade level 2 @ PERIOD D1 Moving Average: [MODE_EMA, PRICE WEIGHTED] Period (3;5) x[1---40] CMSM Running at least since 8h. Vb opened today at 9:00 GMT currently not triggered @ -120 pips approx. Third attempt, failing again
Check to see that you are not adding a negative bounce that will add to the -120pip trigger.

Good Morning Everyone,

Got a quick question for ya'll. Is there a way to Close a Real Basket without hitting the EA v44.7 "Close Basket" button? When I manually close individual basket trades, the EA adds the same trade back again immediately because it is constantly reading the indicator in real time. That's all fine and dandy because that is what the EA is suppose to do. But here is my dilemma.

At my JOB, I only have access to Oanda's Web based platform so I CANNOT touch my MT4 "AutoTrading" button or my EAv44.7 "Close Basket" button. So, when I"m at work and I want to close the basket because of profit, I really have no way of doing that without the EA adding the trades back on again.

I realize I may be out of luck with this situation, but I was hoping someone knows of a simple remedy for this.

Thank you all,

Adam

Why don't you run your terminal on a VPS and then when you at work you can access your VPS remotely and be able to close the trades if needed.

I run my platforms on a VPS which can be accessed anytime anywhere via my phone if I'm not near my laptop.

Hi mrdfx, i think the problem is not "not being there" but some restriction he has on the firewall at work or something.

That is correct. I work in a high security area where I am not allowed to connect to a VPS. Any other options?

The VPS phone idea may work.

Same here. I work in several facilities that do not allow personal internet connections. I use my cell phone. Now, there are places where I don't even have cell phone access... In that case you are stuck. Lol

Vps is is doable on a phone. I oftern do my coding with my thumbs lol....

xmess7, mrdfx

I've experimented with your system and settings for the past 3 weeks and so far, I like what I see. I have used the exact same settings for the CMSM indicator. The main difference of what I am doing is to not use SL or TP so that I can get an idea on how much swing on the pip gain or loss. This table shows a summary of my results:

I messed up and on the first 2 weeks I opened the basket at 11:00 GMT but I corrected on week 3 to open at 10:00 GMT. The column "Min (pips)" shows the lowest level reached by the basket. The column "Profit (pips)" shows the pip gain at which the basket was closed. So far, the baskets show a great ability to recover from big drawdowns. This week's basket went from a low of -528 pips to a high of +431 pips in less than 27 hours.

I know it is not fun to see your basket drop by more than 500 pips. But that is why I am experimenting with the minimum position size of 0.01 lots, so the drawdown in dollars doesn't look so bad. Note that my margin requirement may seem high to some of the posters but I am limited to 50:1 leverage by USA regulations.

My plan for this system is to open only one basket per week. Open on Monday at 10:00 GMT and let it run. I'll continue running the basket without SL. I'll probably start locking profit around 300 pips. I'll continue posting results.

Wednesday basket closed at +1.5%.

I noticed the basket ranging again today so I set the TP to 1.5% to get out at +-BE with no loss.

This week seems to be a repeat of last week, SL hit on Monday and a ranging Wednesday. I really hope things get better next week cos the last 2 weeks have been mediocre except for the Tuesday basket test.

On a good day the basket closes in a few hours, if not maybe we should move to BE to avoid SL.

{quote} Hi if you loaded my set file from post one then it will automatically load the settings which include the SL and open times/days, so I'm guessing you have not loaded it correctly.
Huh. I'm pretty sure I did. I saved the set file to my desk top then loaded it from there. Some of your settings are there so I can't imagine why they wouldn't all be there. For instance, SL is set at 0, hence my question earlier. I'll check it some more after work. Cheers

{quote} Hi Jess, I've tested that feature of allowing new trades. Still, no new trade has been added after the real basket opened. The EA would just keep the same number of pairs after the VB opened. {image}
Ok we need more info. Examine the logs at around the hour or so u might expect new added trades. ... Look at the image below. It's v44.7 running in Oanda broker(50:1 leverage) . You can see by the comment that it added one new trade. It cannot add anymore trades cause there is no more margin available, in addition I have the maxtrade to 6. Otherwise if those limitations were not present the EA would continue to add new trades. When I say NEW I am referring to trades that are not present in current real basket.

{quote} thnx, its your bounce input, you have it set to +10. That tells the EA to add 10 more pips to the trigger which is the same as setting the upper trigger to +30 pips. If you want the EA to bounce the trigger set the bounce to -10 pips. The EA will wait for vprofit to hit the +20 trig then once vprofit falls to +10 pips open the real basket.
Thanks Jess. It cleared a big confusion i had about bounce. I always thought that bounce come in effect only after Real basket is open. And it only adds new symbol only if bounce is reached. Thanks again.

Yea just think of it as a ball bouncing up from the floor or hitting the ceiling and bouncing down.
I made the bounce input +/- so that way folks could utilize it with either up or down trigger. The only catch was that if you used the same direction then as you saw it ADDS to the trigger. I thought that once the concept was understood that folks would know that adding to the trigger was not necessary since all you had to do in that case was extend the trigger.

Next version I'll issue some sort of warning ..

Basically once you have your VPS setup and running all you do is install Windows Remote Desktop on your cell phone. You may need to active the remove desktop feature on your VPS. I don't know if that is the case cause I use a different programs to create the remote desktop connection. Anyhow once you have remote desktop setup on both the VPS and cell phone... you then just connect to the VPS and you will see your desktop on your phone. Get ready to use your thumbs LOL...
