You know sometimes I can be a very stubborn guy well that's what my wife tells me lol, but in a way she's right. So after failing to find a daily setting that could be traded daily and make profits consistently, I stopped and tried to see what I was doing wrong and what would be the smartest approach to trading baskets daily, and I came up with some new ideas (came by accident actually) which I started testing on Monday. Now its still early days and and I might be a bit premature, but so far I'm pretty pleased with the initial results and...

Means more CHARTS on my MT4 soon yayyyyyy!!!

I'm already testing mrdfx, yohec, and deathCab settings.

your moving average is different + you close trades with CloseAll_TP_EA.

{quote} Hi mrdfx Why my basket holding positions 140+pips (0.19%), I don't have similar percentage as yours? What's the difference? Leverage? {image}
Could be your lot size or maybe leverage but your lot size seems much lower so you would need many more pips to reach the TP.

I use 0.03/500 lot size.
Truth is like poetry. And most people f*cking hate poetry.

I have same 0.03/500, but lot size is way too small 0.01. I may change % into Pips TP or Lock Profit in future, not now.... I will hold basket until tomorrow. its 400+ pips.

Tuesday Basket Weekly MRDFX preset (broker: pepperstone)

MT4 EA v44.8
EA: TP: 5% SL: 10%
LotsPerBalance 0.02/500
MaxTrades 8

Indicator: CMSM v19.01 level 4 @ PERIOD_W1
Profit: +5.6%

Well looks like my mistake was ok, lol.Totally forgot to change EA settings and ended up using mrdfx's Tuesday preset. The reason it traded today was cause I used my modified preset. I was planning to test it on Oanda and I forgot totunload it yesterday, lol.. Now since I got the win.. i.am curious to see how it does tomorrow so will continue testing ... Lol

If you have selected lotsPerBalance and you have set it to
03/500 then you should have a lotsize of
(9431x.03)/500 ==> 0.37.

yer profit would then be approximately = 0.37 * 10 * 214pips = 791.8

Which in turn yeilds an approximate % gain of (719/9431)100 = 8.4%

Please check you have selected lotsPerBalance..if you are seeing 0.01 lots then it seems you have selected fixed lotsize...

First off, great thread, great EA, and the work and contributions by Forexpinbar, xmess7, yohec, mrdfx, grandaevus, et al are 1st class...

My main focus is pivot-zones (daily, weekly, monthly) and key weekly/monthly/Yearly pivot S&R + VWAP, but i regularly use CCFp to identify Currency Strength, so i've been reading through the thread.

I noted that some have highlighted the occasional botched monday, or at least monday DD issues, and wondered if anyone had thought about how PA will often move to the weekly pivot-zone (to find support or resistance) prior to continuing with its "trend"? (or get tide-up, or fail and reverse)

There's obviously way more to it than that, variations etc, but would this not lend weight to either accepting a larger DD and obv greater risk, or avoiding opening a basket on mondays (or requiring a higher Trade Level on monday, lower on tues/wed/thurs, or incorporating into how and/or when baskets are initiated?

I probably haven't explained that very well, so i've attached some pics to highlight what i'm goin on about...

Hi, so there are a couple of things to consider.

1. The max you see is for the week.. So, if you have had the EA on for the week you should have two days of trading which mean that the 11% u see is the totaltmax for the the week. But it looks like that is not the case cause your week is at 54%..

or you can do the following...

2. This trailstop as well as the other choice have been tested many times. So you can do the same. Fire up the test strategy, set up the inputs to produce the trialstop, use a H1 tf. To run the EA in the tester you do not need the indicators, you will get a one symbol basket which will allow u to see the trailstop in action. If u see the trailstop not working let me know.

ok so then that is what happened. you see on Monday when you hit the 45% gain the EA recorded it as the MAX gain. That MAX gain Will remain until another basket goes higher or if a new week starts (the Max/Min are reset to 0 at that point). Looks like your latest basket must of reached just over 8%.which is not over 45%. So the Nax you saw was from the Monday basket.

Hope you were testing in Demo :-) There are many profitable methods flying around by mrdfx, yohec, deathCab, christdk2017, and some other members I'm not in touch with yet. I'm gathering every profitable method ea/indicators/preset and generating template file. The reason, if you messed up with your computer or your VPS server dies (This happened to Steven) so within seconds you may take over all opened lots with their Unique Magic numbers. This happened to me days ago too, I opened another laptop, downloaded MT4, loadhistory script, copy all indi ea in MT4, restarted MT4, dragged templates to charts and Done!!! Went out for coffee. Every method is with unique ID/magic number and with fixed lot size 0.01, so you may use all methods in one MT4 or multiple MT4 you choice. And once you gain confidence in one method then you may change Lot size from fixed to "Percentage of Account balance". I'll include FAQ and recommended settings by originators.

Finger Cross!!
