So far it seems so...I'll try to run it tommorrow also, so we'll see...
I just noticed that cause I have not been using that preset for some time now.

In my opinion the EA is at the point where if you set it up correctly you are basically assured of not getting into BIG DD.

Well let me explain. There are 2 inputs (next version it will be 3) were you can tell the EA to take a peak at the status of a virtual or real basket X minutes AFTER the open time. You can direct the EA to determine if the basket needs to be closed at that moment.

What I have seen, especially in these times, that is a DD saver... In the past weeks I was not using it and as a consequence I had 2 -10 STOP outs. And guess what in both cases at the HOUR mark. Either the DD was less than 1% or in the other case it was just above 1%. Now I know there is a possibility of losing out on potential profits cuase after all what you see at the HOUR mark can change in your favor a couple of minutes after. So I am banking on that when price is in our favor that the basket will climb into profit within the hour. Then we just let the BE and Trail take over and get as much as we can …

Enough ranting.. Just stay mean, lean, and keen! LOL

{quote} I do not use a VPS. There is no need to sit in front of your PC. The EA takes care of opening the VB and the RB is the trigger is hit. In case the basket spikes up I have a profit lock set to close the basket in profit. If the basket spikes against me, then I keep track of it and hope it turns in my favor. Please read my Post #16,899 that explains my exit strategy. I will frequently close my baskets manually if the current profit is better than 2%. As far as yesterday's basket, I saw the basket reach +65 pips gain and then give it back and...
Great work Yohec.

I would like to take the opportunity to thank every one in this team effort and coming out with a excellent piece of work.I am trading from last two years but not successful not because of any systems but because of my impatience. However came up with observation that as you are using a weekly Tf than may be an RSI filter with setting of 2 or 3 with level 97 and 3 can make this Ea a holy grail in your terms.
BB squeeze is an oscillator and will give signals once it is above the middle line even though the price is falling if you have a buy trade.
Any thing that goes down at this level will have to go up so at 97 on a Weekly Tf the price has gone opposite on the same day or the day after..As this is a reversal signal the candle color filter may not work.
This is just my observation and getting this right on the Demo.You are are master of the trade and know better but just a though of this RSI filter
King Regards

Would like to see new H. Were this live trading, and were the RB not to have reached ProfitLock before NFP report tomorrow morning, and if gain is,say, 0.33, or better of ProfotLock value a few minutes before report is released, I would close basket.

Well, either I have set trail stop incorrectly, or trail stop has developed a bug with publication of v51.0. Something doesn't look right...

Pippopotamus, I don't know if you answered this question before but which strategy are you using? I see that you opened your VB basket on the monday morning and you are monitoring your trades untill it reach your target. Can you give some more info about your method?

I would rather say to get the full picture of whats happening these days with the various approaches, its better to read back the last 1 year. If you can't do that then don't even bother trying this strategy.

Pippo: Did the lock move at all? According to the image your next lock move was set to happen when profit hit 267.9 but your max pips were at 267.0, so according to that your lock was not moved YET.

In the next post looks like you closed it manually at 230 pips, correct? Since the max pips was higher than 267.9 was the lock moved up from 219?

Thnx

As was stated in my post, stopped for a gain... "Did the lock move at all?" Might you mean one of the following?? StepLock,TrailStop, LockPercentLevel? Please specify. Trailing was, in fact, taking place. My settings: BeginLockingProfit 252, StepLock 3, TrailStop 45, LockPercentLevel 85. Next time profits were to be recalculated was at 281 pips. Missed by 2 pips, H 279, before retrace that led to stop-out.
