Sure, there are two versions. You can use whichever you want. I made one that is straight-forward for a broker that is already starting it's day at the correct Forex time of 5PM Eastern, with five full days of trading a week. My broker FXChoice is one such broker. I can use this indicator to use for backtests and save time because the start of Forex day does not need to be corrected for. Then I made a "synchronized" version to use with brokers that do not start their days on correct Forex hour for beginning of Forex day, so that the fib pivots will be just like mine on my broker, therefore not making a difference which broker you use it on, it should all look the same.

Kindest regards,

Don

I have no need to use the synchronized version and it appears you don't have a need to use it either, so just don't use it. I'm not going to change the code of the indicators. They do both work for me on multiple brokers. They were provided as is. Use at your own risk.

If using the Daily FibPivot indicator on an offline chart, you must also build and open the Daily chart if you want it to be accurate or even appear.

Hello Basket Traders, I will be starting to continue the Basket TRading soon with the new ideas I was able to generate over the years when I stop posting here in FF. New Ideas like the 3 pairs high probability trade then the 3 for 3 trading strat. I know I abruptly just stop posting here in FF after the unfair treatment of my thread that they decided to move it to commercial also I was branded as commercial member that I cant even post on the regular forum. It was very devastating as if I am stealing something from them. I will continue this in...

Not only did I encounter the problem of an indicator that creates stand-alone charts with 14 currency pairs does not work, I found an alternative if there is a programmer in this wad who can add currency pairs to the indicator so that there are 14 pieces.

FYI, the indicator I made and posted here does work just fine, and once offline chart(s) opened, you can even measure from one point to another and easily get number of pips as a whole number:

Thank you. I tried this indicator, case 14 loads the terminal heavily and it stops responding, that's why I found an alternative if you can help add another pair to it so that there are 14 pairs in the indicator

Yeah, I got my BuyBaskets EA that is coded to open EURUSD chart, place indicator to build the offline charts, open the offline charts, and apply template to offline chart and then trade with charts open, and I got 3 installs using about 25% of my CPU each, on Windows 10 laptop, no problem. Sorry to hear you are having problems with it. No matter the indicator you use, it's building all the bars every tick or second to build history is what I've found, and if it could be done without doing so it would save a lot of resources of course if it just did one or two bars instead of e.g. 1000. IndicatorCounted code should make this happen, but unfortunately does not seem to work for the offline charts, so all offline chart creators I have found do all e.g. 1000 bars each tick or second. Not optimal for sure, but I do what I can and it works for me.

Can you attach "CCI_Ob_Os_arrows0alerts_A2" that the file you attached earlier uses?

Kindest regards,

Don

BasketCandles + CCI_Ob_Os V2.mq4 (which you posted first) uses iCustom and uses/needs CCI_Ob_Os_arrows0alerts_A2.mq4, which I asked for and you posted 2nd.
Now CCI_Ob_Os_arrows0alerts_A2.mq4 uses iCustom and uses/needs BasketCandles_A2.mq4, which I am asking for now. With all the files, I might actually want to take a look and figure this thing out

My PC is not a gaming PC either. But I have no problem with having multiple MT4s open plus Google Chrome which is a hog. Of course I didn't have anything open when I benchmarked it.

GBP was of course big winner this week. You can clearly see what all 8 currencies did for the week and day and hour at top left corner of pic. Can't say I'm profitable myself, but working on it. I like and want to trade whole market, which is why I code what I do. But trading on open bar I lose a lot, which I don't think I would if I waited for bars to close before entering or exiting.

Kindest regards,

Don

After several years of trading forex, I can safely conclude that the easiest pairs to handle are the GBP's such are GU, GJ, GC and EG. These pairs trends smoothly, delivers massive pips. Try it from your demo account first and you will agree with me.

Thanks and Peace

I remember the 4 eXtremes. This is why we need a new basket thread to give everyone a fresher course of the old basket threads again.

Thanks for the tip Julius! I'm gonna do a version of my personal currency basket creator to have GBP just have those 4 pairs and not all 7 I usually have, and see how much smoother it is.

Update: Did that. Pics attached. 7 pair GBP top chart value minus bottom chart value 187818 - 180398 = 7,420 pips. 4 pair GBP top chart value minus bottom chart value 102258 - 98728 = 3,530 pips. Both since about beginning of September. Both in pullback from 3rd week of Septermber until the 10th of October. About double the pairs with normal GBP, but over double the gain. Same basic pattern (look at pics). Summary: I wouldn't remove the pairs, just trade the whole GBP basket IMHO.

Kindest regards,

Don
