v20.03 did not trigger today, and v17.01 is in a little DD currently. v17.01 went as high as +4.5% but I was not at my computer so did not see it. Anyway I am still running comparison tests, and so far its pretty equal. I'll run the comparison for another 4 weeks before making a decision on which one I'll use live. I'm working on a new weekly set file which is showing great results so far. A cpl more weeks of testing and I'll post it for you guys.

As far as 8:15 nothing was triggered and i had to go manual.

Hi blamshakk this is the last week of testing and if all goes well I'll post the new preset file by the end of the week.

So u are using no filters right and what are your indicator settings?? Weekly, daily??

You can always test the EA operations in the strategy tester. The big difference will be that you only get a 1 pair basket and the buttons are not shown since they won't work in the tester. You can test to see if a EA feature like trail stop or filter or anything is operating or not.

Monday basket closed at BE +1%.

I did not like today's PA and also based on the last 2 weeks with the Monday basket hitting SL, I did not want to take any extra risks so decided to close at BE after seeing no real action after 4 hrs.

Wednesday here we come!

This is the final week of my weekly comparison test between v17.01 and v20.03.

Sp far the results are pretty close with v17.01 in the lead, but we will see after Wednesday basket the final result.

I know grandaevus released an updated v20.04, but the suggestions of v20.04 are so similar to v17.01, they look almost the same so I have not thought to do a comparison of v20.04.

Oh ok. I am not familiar with the results that v19 could produce. What I was as thinking is that possibly the EA filters gave you a no trade situation(which is valid). If you have no filters activated and you are still getting no basket then we need to examine your situation
Also look at the logs, sometimes the brokers introduce issues that so not allow trading.. for example the EA attempts to open trades but the broker blocks due to the pair not being tradeable.

But as far as many have shown the EA operates properly for the type of condition you require.

Monday Basket (Demo on US Broker Oanda, low leverage 50:1)

EA: TP: 30% SL: 5%
LotsPerBalance 0.02/500
MaxTrades 6
TakeProfit manual strategy with Manual_lock to begin at 5% to lock 1%. VbVtrigger @ +30pips,.
Basket is closed if I AM ABLE TO SEE PROFIT Or I will manually move lock up 5% for certain levels.

Indicator: CMSM v17.01 level 2@ PERIOD_W1, MA(3,5,MODE_EMA,PRICE_WEIGTHED). MA x [1,2,3,4,8,12]

HengkiTjen, I could be wrong but I think that MRDFX main strategy/setting are trading Monday and Wednesday Only on Indicator Weekly settings with Trade Level 2. But he wanted to add Tuesday in there too, so he is finding out that on Tuesdays Trade Level 4 is better.

Feel free to chime in MRDFX if I am way off base here.

{quote} Ah man this daily tests has been a thorn in my side for many months now. I was just telling Jess the other day how frustrating this experiment has been, and I'm too stubborn to give up trying! Its been very difficult to find a consistently profitable setting that can be used daily. Through the many many months of testing I've tried literally hundreds of settings, but finding one that is consistent has been harder than I thought! But.... I have not given up yet! There are a few important factors for having a...
Well guys I have some unfortunate news.

After literally over a year of testing and searching for a profitable and consistent daily basket I have failed. I tested week after week all kinds of settings you could imagine, but nothing was consistent enough to trade daily and make a profit. Some days and weeks were good and some were not, and when adding up and compiling all the data, the baskets had not made a profit long term which showed inconsistency so it was not successful.

Looking at the screenshots you can see how many weeks I've spent on this project. I had really thought that I could find a daily basket setting that would make a good small daily profit which added up at the end of the month, but it really seems that this strategy is better suited to weekly trading not daily.

On a side note I am working on a new daily project, a kind of perpetual basket based on the data I've complied over the last year, and we shall see how it goes after some time. I'll keep you guys posted.
