Monday basket triggered but sitting at approx -4.5% DD.

It's been a hella slow day with mostly sideways PA. The basket went has high as +1.5% at one point and probably should have closed manually but missed it.
Truth is like poetry. And most people f*cking hate poetry.

{quote} Thanks for specifying which basket would be closed. Helped a lot.
The real basket is closed.

In both cases (regular or virtual setups) the input will start to monitor from the time the REAL basket is opened. Then at the minute mark you indicate the EA will then take a "PEAK" (like I do, LOL) and then based on what you selected (DD or both DD or PROFIT) , the EA will decide whether to close or not the open real basket.

I will be adding more cases that will avoid catastrophic results. For example it can happen that at the moment the real basket opens or within say the first 15 minutes that we get a real bad DD drop. So I plan to add a condition (will be optional of course) that lets you tell the EA that If the real basket is in X amount of DD within X minutes... CLOSE IT AND GET OUT!!. LOL. The idea being that I would rather take a 2% or less loss early in the process rather than a -5% 0r more in the later Hours...

Jess, the new version works as it should so far. Thank you for fixing! I have one suggestion to help the traders in making the decision on when to close. What if we show the current profit curve for both vB and rB? We can show profit curves for all opened pairs with a total profit curve or just the total profit curve only so that we can see the profit movement visually. I used to draw curves for my personal indicators so I may be able to help you if necessary.

Jess the basket triggered while I was still sleeping, and by the time I saw it it was floating around 0.50% so I left it and that was nearly 4 hrs after opening, so I can only guess that the basket high was reached between 2-3 hrs.

So SL was hit during the night.

I'm not a huge fan of holding baskets overnight and took the risk, and it didnt't play out in my favor. Ouch.

Pls elaborate.
Remember the VB would just be ahead of the RB by the delta time it took to open the RB.. so where is the benefit in that ?

Thank

Aha!
.case in point which would u rather have +0.5 or the SL??
I had seen this happen so often so hence, the addition of the option to tell the EA just close the basket close it is not in profit after x minutes.

It seems that this is something that can help especially during these ranging times...

The EAs are all in the folder called latest on a file server. Just click on the link you see on pg 1. The only thing u need to decide on is whether to get the MQL4 oe MQL5 version of the EA. Look at the extensions so you can decide which one u need.

As far as the indicators.. They are also on the server. I did not separate the latests that are being used but in that same folder you will have all of the indicators for you to download. In order to tell which indicator you require... look at he images we post. On the chart you usually see the name and the version. The only indicator that does not display that is the Ccfp-diff. Look at Pippo's images, in his case he is using the ccfp-diff indicator.

As for the presets I tried to place the posts where the creator talsk about the approach and what indicator they are using. Even thought there are like 4 links they only point to two presets. Yohec's 2 basket system and MRDFX's Tuesday preset. As a soon as I get to it I will ask the thread creator to post the latest approach with any presets.

So Please keep in mind that what Yohec and Pippo are currently doing are not part of page 1 yet. you will need to read the last couple of pages in order to understand what they are doing now. In fact Yohec's negative trigger approach is basically the second part of the 2 basket system. So if you get an understand of that thru his posts, you should be able to follow what he is doing now.

I decided to take my profit early and closed the basket for +47 pips. The basket was open for only 5 hours.

There is an old saying, "no one ever went broke taking profits".
